So I’m in soaring dragon right now. In your opinion what Grace set is good for running through until I get to the last new game + and when should I start grinding levels.
Cant remember that difficukty... is it like NG+? Or just the NG? If it's just the NG, dont bother with build.. just used whatever you like and learn the mechenics. I used Zhou Yun set for my first play through. Once I unlock NG+, I was starting to use Black Emperror. You will known when you should grind because you will keep getting one shot by normal mob.
This is my early whip build. I use combination of Yuan Shao and Wanchu armor to get the damage reduction benefit from both sets. You can mix and match pieces that you have, They are among the heaviest armor, so whatever combination would make it good. On all armor slots, embed Damage Reduction, Melee Attack Damage and Morale Point Gain. You can uae premium alot on chest and legs for a more unqie benefit like extended siprit disruption or increase dash speed. If you can use Gongong whip for the main weapon, you will gain another 5% damage reduction. You will need set migigation on one of the range weapon, this is must have. Accessory shoukd have HP gain on melee attack and wizardry attack. One piece of accessory needa to be Yuan Shao set. Also get Defense gain and Power Drop on gain HP if you can. Scale your 5 virtue with the whip that you choose. In the VDO, I shift damage to wood and boost wood stat to gain good HP.
