The set primarily boosts critical damage and critical rate. It does not directly increase base attack, focusing instead on enhancing critical strike potential and synergy with status effects.
❓Can the set’s bonuses stack?
Bonuses activate based on conditions and do not stack repeatedly. The crit damage and crit rate boosts each trigger once under their specific conditions to avoid overpowering effects.
❓Is Branch & Blade Song good for PvP?
It can be useful in PvP if you can reliably apply Freeze and Shatter effects, allowing for bursts of critical damage. However, its effectiveness depends on the team’s ability to control status effects consistently.
❓What is Freeze effect in the game?
Freeze is a status effect that temporarily immobilizes enemies, setting them up for additional damage. The Branch & Blade Song set leverages this effect to trigger critical rate bonuses.
