Outstanding Ability
2-piece: When the user has 70% or more of their MP, their damage dealt increases by 30%.
4-piece: The Damage Dealt Increase effect potency increases to 60% and this effect now triggers when the user is at 40% of more of their maximum MP.

Goto Ryuji excels at dealing Break damage, and his Exorcise effect from Phantom’s Heavenly Hurricane synergizes perfectly with the Greed effect of the Burning Greed Set. This combination amplifies his offensive power, making it a top choice for maximizing his damage potential.

Alternatively, a mix of the 4-piece New Hunter Set and 4-piece Burning Greed Set provides a balanced approach. This setup maximizes Goto Ryuji’s Break damage and synergizes well with Phantom’s Heavenly Hurricane’s Exorcise effect for sustained pressure and burst potential.

Another option is the 4-piece Obsidian Set, which grants a 60% damage boost when Goto Ryuji has at least 40% MP.
