PvP Weapons

Primary

Heavy

Recommended

The Huckleberry

Increased Rate of Fire translates to higher DPS. Can chain kills effectively against groups of enemies. Needs good recoil control to reach full potential.

Alternative

Riskrunner	Very effective at countering Arc damage-focused enemies. Chain kills to keep the Arc Conductor buff active. Less useful if opponents don’t primarily deal Arc damage.
Wolfpack	Easy to use with solid general buffs. Movement Speed buff helps when closing the gap on enemies. Requires strong Traits to reach full potential.

Recommended

Nobunaga

Heavy Attack dash compensates for the melee-only limitation of Swords. Movement Speed boost from final blows helps close gaps on opponents. Requires strong Traits to maximize overall potential.

Alternative

Partridge Sky

Heavy Attack AoE helps secure guaranteed damage. Battle Cry provides a strong buff but is nerfed in PvP. Swords are generally weaker in PvP unless you can consistently close the gap.

Jolder’s Primary weapon choice is fairly flexible, as the best option often depends on the enemies you’re facing. However, The Huckleberry stands out thanks to its consistent damage output and reliability. On the other hand, her Sword options are more limited in PvP since they’re harder to use effectively, with most lacking strong AoE potential or reliable gap-closing tools.

PvE Weapons

Primary

Heavy

Recommended

Wolfpack

Easy to use with solid general buffs. Excellent for speedrunning and quickly closing gaps. Requires strong Traits to reach full potential.

Alternative

Riskrunner	Excellent at mobbing once Arc Conductor and Superconductor are active. Provides added defense against Arc damage. Less effective in fights without Arc-based enemies.
The Huckleberry	Increased Rate of Fire translates into higher DPS. Strong mobbing potential thanks to its damage and ammo passives. Requires solid recoil control to use effectively.
DEL5 Kulfi	Best suited for characters that rely on a Sword as their Heavy Weapon. Recoil is less punishing in PvE since missed shots aren’t as costly. Culture Clash’s Perk Upgrade is especially effective against Fallen or Cabal enemies.

Recommended

Partridge Sky

Passives make it stronger at mobbing compared to most other Swords. Weave Light Attacks after Heavy Attacks to fully benefit from its passives. Unlock Catalyst upgrades to further boost its mobbing potential.

Alternative

Makeshift Ending	Use Heavy Attacks with full energy to maximize damage. Fighting with broken shields is risky, but the final blow buff makes it rewarding. Requires strong Traits to reach full potential.
Nobunaga	Great for speedrunning and moving quickly between groups of enemies. Use Heavy Attacks with full energy to maximize damage. Needs strong Trait rolls to reach full effectiveness.
CLY2 Kakalik	Gains a useful charge rate buff just by approaching enemies. Requires strong Trait rolls to reach full potential. Culture Clash’s Perk Upgrade is especially effective in encounters with Fallen or Cabal enemies.

In PvP, Wolfpack is favored for its bonus movement speed, letting Jolder quickly move from fight to fight. For Heavy Weapons, Partridge Sky is the top Sword choice thanks to its strong Heavy Attack and combo potential.

Alternatively, you can run a build with Riskrunner alongside any Mythic Sword, since Riskrunner becomes a powerhouse if you can reliably trigger its passives.

Best Artifact

Rampaging Radiation

A high risk, high reward playstyle. You need to manage your cooldown much more efficiently so that you don’t lose too much HP. You’ll need a either a build, or teammates that can support you, since losing HP is not good.

Alternate Options

Ring of Reflection

Damage buff will make you play more defensively. Effective if you have teammate that provides overshield. Maintain 36-100 overshield for max damage debuff.

In PvP game modes, it’s recommended to maximize Jolder’s defensive potential with a Status set so that Jolder can stay alive for as long as possible. However, you can also use an Overshield set instead if you want something more balanced and don’t need to be overly reliant on healing.

In PVP, we recommend maximizing Jolder’s defense with a status set. This way, you can stay alive as long as possible. Also, you can also use an overshield set if you don’t want to rely that much on healing.

Alternate Options

Jolted Transit

Makes for an easier playstyle since you don’t have to aim from precise shots to maximize damage. This is best used on your melee characters to make use of the set bonus. You might need to adjust your playstyle if you’re used to Precisions Shots.

Best Artifact

Ring of Reflection

This will give you more damage buff for a more defensive oriented playstyle. Way more effective if your allies have multiple ways to provide overshield. Try to maintain 36-100 overshield to max your HP ration and maximize damage buff.

Alternate Options

Resonating Transit

This is great for destroying shields, making your allies kill off tougher enemies quickly. Downside is this can be restricting for weapons builds for they need to be on the same element. You don’t need this unless your team are struggling to break shields.

Jolder’s kit is specialized for gaining overshields to keep you safe during combat. To enhance this further, we recommend using an overshield set so that you can become even more tankier, making the support focus only on healing other allies that needs it more.

Also, if you’re team is really good at keeping each other alive, and you don’t need that much survivability, you can switch to a more offensive impact set instead. You just have to make sure that you’re very close to your enemies to activate the artifacts bonuses.

Recommended Teammates

PVP

Tan-2

It is always great to have a support even if Jolder doesn’t need that much healing. It is easy to keep Tan-2 safe due to how disruptive Jolder is. Its very hard or almost ipossible to break a hold with their supers staced on each other.

In PVP Modes, Tan-2 is one of the best characters that pairs well with Jolder. Tan-2 can still be a good team mate but it will depend on who else is on the team.

PvE

Tan-2	It is always great to have a support even if Jolder doesn’t need that much healing. It is easy to keep Tan-2 safe due to how disruptive Jolder is. Its very hard or almost impossible to break a hold with their supers stacked on each other.
Gwynn	A good team specifically for diving and that is super aggressive. Her 2nd Signature makes it easy for Jolder to hit her 1st Signature. Jolder’s super can make space for Gwynn to dive into.

A lot of characters can be paired with Jolder in PvE. That said, they can be less effective depending on the mission and scenario you’re currently in. Make sure to check if they’ll be a generally good pick first.
