The Empyrean Greataxe and its Empyrean Crash skill is the best weapon for the build as it staggers enemies easily, and it has high Tenacity, allowing you to remain uninterrupted during your attack.

Rampage is the Discipline Skill used, as its upgrade variant that allows you to heal and leech life after using the skill. This skill is also great against humanoid enemies and bosses as it can lift them to the air, granting you some free hits.

Weapon Benedictions

Halberd Benedictions
Tri-Disciplinary ForceWei - Tri-Disciplinary Force Six-Disciplinary ForceWei - Six-Disciplinary Force Nine-Disciplinary ForceWei - Nine-Disciplinary Force

Equip the Benedictions listed above for your Serpent Fang. These Disciplinary Force benedictions provide a huge raw damage increase, including their set bonus.

Start on the utility path and obtain Energetic and Rapid Temperance for faster imbuement. Take Skyborn Call II for stacks, healing potency, and number of Manna Flasks; afterwards, you can focus on the Axe tree.

Obtain Strike and Cleave along with other Axe Disciplines before getting the Skyborn Call III, then get Rampage with its variants as well as Colossal Smash to activate the damage boost from your Benedictions.

After completing the Axe tree, take Solar Leap and Upward Force from the spear tree while taking the strength nodes. This will allow you to reach the go past the Nine-Disciplinary Force requirement, providing another damage increase.

Afterwards, take the left path on the Longsword tree, and obtain all strength nodes as well as Sword Counter. This is the last Discipline you need to obtain the bonus damage from the Disciplinary Force set bonus.

If you still have more points, you can invest them in stamina nodes from the Dual Blades tree. That way, you can swap the Dragon-Fish Pendant with the Bravery Pendant for more damage.

Armor Set

Head Chest
Ming HelmetMing Helmet Ming ArmorMing Armor
Gloves Pants
ConsortConsort's Bracers ConsortConsort's Skirt

For your armor, it's best to obtain the ones that grant the highest Tenacity, preventing enemies from interrupting your attacks, which allows you to keep on attacking.

The Consort armor pieces are optional if you want a balanced mitigation between all damage types. But if the enemies you're fighting do not have elemental status attacks, it's best to use the complete Ming set for maximum Tenacity.

Head Chest
North GeneralNorth General's Helmet Centipede CarapaceCentipede Carapace
Gloves Pants
North GeneralNorth General's Vambraces Ming GreavesMing Greaves

For your armor, it's best to obtain the ones that grant the highest Tenacity, preventing enemies from interrupting your attacks, which allows you to keep on attacking.

For top Tenacity, you'll want to equip the North General's Helmet and Vambrace, as it has a higher Tenacity compared to the Ming and Centipede variants. You are going to need to adjust your armor as this setup has low resistances to non-physical damage and is weak to blunt attacks.

Jade Pendants

Pendants
Dragon-Fish PendantDragon-Fish Pendant Peace PendantPeace Pendant Tiger PendantTiger Pendant

For your pendant setup, you'll want a flat increase to damage which you'll obtain from the Peace and Tiger Pendants. The Dragon-Fish pendant grants an increase to your maximum stamina, but you can swap this out with the Bravery Pendant for more damage.

Alternatives
Lifesteal PendantLifesteal Pendant Fiend-Felling PendantFiend-Felling Pendant Dracolich PendantDracolich Pendant

For your pendant setup, you'll want a flat increase to stamina and stamina recovery, allowing you to keep on attacking without pause.

The alternatives allow the build to do different things. The Lifesteal pendant is best for mobbing and exploring (saving Manna Flask), while the Fiend-Felling and Dracolich pendants are great against specific enemy types.

Temperance and Acupoints

Acupoints Effect
Bone Needle - LeechBone Needle - Leech Used via tempering to endow your weapon with the ability to leech health from enemies.
Shadow Stone Needle - StrengthShadow Stone Needle - Strength Taps into your acupoint to slightly increase the Strength Control of the weapon you're wielding.

The Leech temperance is the best for the build as it stacks with the effects of Rampage, allowing you to heal a ton of HP per hit. What's more is that the setup allows you to clash with armed enemies three out of four times, making the build extremely tanky.

You'll want the Shadow Stone Needle - Strength acupoint to further increase the damage scaling of your Axe.

Spells

Spell Uses
Echo of DhutangaEcho of Dhutanga Primarily used for applying burn and chaining to the light attack combo, allowing for an endless chain due to the Skyborn Might gain on the 4th attack of the axe.
Divine MightDivine Might Used before using major moves like Empyrean Crash or Rampage to increase their damage.
Divine WardDivine Ward Mainly used for damage reduction.

Recommended Items

Manna VaseManna Vase TemperanceTemperance Fixed Origin PillFixed Origin Pill Soft Rush FlowersSoft Rush Flowers


For your items, we recommend equipping Soft Rush Flowers and Fixed Origin Pills in your loadout. The Soft Rush Flowers help your stamina regeneration further, allowing you to attack more often.

The Fixed Origin Pills grant resistance to non-physical damage, as the armor used in the build focuses on Slash and Stab mitigation as well as Tenacity increase.

Playstyle and Tips




Recommended Rotation

  1. Use Temperance and ramp up your combo from distance to hit the 4th strike of the combo.
  2. Use Rampage to activate Life Leech.
  3. Weave in light combos to hit the 4th attack to get 3 Skyborn Might stacks. Attack with pacing to activate Strike and Cleave.
  4. Activate Empyrean Crash to deal high damage and stagger enemies. This attack also has high Tenacity, allowing you to tank through numerous enemy attacks.
  5. Activate Rampage again if you lose your Life Leech buff. You can identify this through the green buff icon below your health bar.
  6. Reapply Temperance as needed. Continue rotation until the enemy is down.

Keep an Eye on the Rampage Leech Indicator

Only use Rampage whenever the Leech indicator is gone. Rampage costs 3 Skyborn Might, so it's best to time it right in order to have a consistent life leech uptime.

Use Charged Attack to Clash with Weapon Attacks

Your charged heavy attack with the Axe has multiple hits. Take advantage of this to trigger multiple clashes and deal high damage with low drawback.

Stay Aggressive

Stay aggressive against all your encounters as that is how the build shines. You'll be able to kill an enemy or fill their stagger meter before you're even required to use your Manna Vases. Your heals will be even more potent when you have 90% madness filled.
