Boze's access to Trident Buster, Arcing Horn, and Vortex also makes him a strong choice for dealing electric damage. Activate Hair Trigger for the Supercharge effect before using Trident Buster to make it deal more damage!

With Slayonet as his signature art, despite being a ranged-based art, it's remains viable since it benefits from Boze's melee arts. Slayonet can deal up to 125% more damage after executing melee combos!

Raijin is included to restore HP, improving his survivability. Sidewinder is also included for its ability to lower an enemy's debuff resistance, increasing the chances of Boze inflicting Shock with his skills.
