    Does an Element III/ Razor Sharp jewel exist? 150 Hours in and I don’t see any!

    Why on earth does a glaive have punishing draw, and what good is it for a glaive set???

    Hello! Thank you for the question. A Blast Artian Weapon works better with the Raw Critical build for the stacked damage and consistent critical hits! Hope this helps!

    Would a blast version artian weapon be more suitable in the raw crit version? Or in the burst frenzy version?

    Hello! The 4-piece Gore set is only a viable option if you're looking to activate Black Eclipse II for its attack bonus. However, since the build focuses on raw critical damage, it's not entirely necessary, as equipping it would mean sacrificing some affinity skills in exchange for attack boosts. The page has also been updated to reflect this information, thank you for your query! :)

    Thank you for the kind words, and apologies for the confusion! The 5 Physique Jewels indicated in the decorations summary count the total amount of Physique Jewels needed by the build as a whole. That would be 3 Physique Jewels slotted into the G. Arkveld Vambraces B, and 2 for the Arkvulcan Coil B. Hope this clears things up!

    Hello, dear user. Thank you for using our Insect Glaive build as a reference! Both builds should output the same amount of damage the way they are designed. However, the Elemental-focused build will deal more damage if used against a Monster with that Elemental weakness. As for the playstyle, the Elemental and Raw builds can utilize the aerial and ground playstyle seamlessly since both will contribute to mount damage. It is only a matter of preference and comfort!

    The raw crit build mentions aiming for 4pc gore set bonus for the attack boost after frenzy but the loadout only uses 2pc?

    For the Raw Critical Insect Glaive Build in the decoration section it mentions slotting in 5 physique jewels but there is only room for 3 thank you guys for all the hard work

    14 Anonymous Anonymous 9 monthsReport

    So with the two end game builds; which is better? Raw or elemental? Does the playstyle matter? Aerial playstyle for ele and ground playstyle for raw?

    Hello, thank you for your kind words! We intentionally went for 3 pieces of Gore Magala's set to get Black Eclipse only, cause it allows you to be inflicted with Frenzy without needing to get hit and it's important for activating your Antivirus and Coalescence skills. If we go for 4 pieces and activate Black Eclipse II, it only gives attack damage bonuses instead of elemental ones. :( Hope this clears things up!

    Thank you for the great guide! Why u don't take 4 pieces of the gore set for the full set bonus? Is it don't worth?

    Thank you very much!! This is the best website ever

    Hello! If you'd like to try out a poison option, we recommend using Queen Regalia or any Artian Weapon with Poison, paired with Critical Status 3 and Poison Attack 3. As for your armor skills, it's best to use Foray Charm II and swap out the Burst skills with Foray to enable the build. Hope this helps! :)

    for the Artian Frenzy Burst Insect Glaive Build, is there a poison option? its my favorite element and would love a build using the artian lvl 8 poison wep!!
