Most of this guide focuses around Metallic Fury since it's very easy to use throughout all stages of progression, however if you have endgame equipment you may prefer to use rhythmic wave instead.<br> | |||
Rhythmic wave has nearly-identical damage to Metallic Fury with sound blend applied, but won't require sound blend to be applied to the target. | |||
In other words, you'll get Metallic Fury's single-target DPS against an entire crowd of enemies; you should get ~23% more damage against crowds before taking equipment into account. | |||
Unlike Metallic Fury which requires no fixed cast time, no variable cast time and only 20% after cast delay reduction;<br> | |||
for Rhythmic Wave we'll need 100% variable cast time reduction, 1s of fixed cast time reduction and 60% after cast delay to make it work. | |||
For 1s of FCT, this will already be accomplished by Moan of Corruption.<br> | |||
{{#item:470204}} | |||
VCT is the first challenge to overcome, you'll likely have 80% with standard endgame performer equipment.<br> | |||
The easiest way to obtain the remaining vct needed would be with a Beelzebub Card, however this may be difficult to obtain since they're very scarce.<br> | |||
An alternative option would be enchanting a Gambler's Seal with 10% vct, and getting the remaining vct with shadow gear enchantments this will likely be expensive and lose more damage compared to beelzebub but be more reliable to obtain.<br> | |||
Another option would be replacing your top costume stone with a Wanderer & Minstrel Stone I (not II), this will give you 10% vct, this will likely have the biggest damage drop but be the cheapest method to get 10% vct.<br> | |||
There's a lot of options available for getting vct, so look around the wiki to see what works best for you; if you can get your hands on a Beelzebub card then that will likely be the easiest and best option possible to get 100% without even trying. | |||

Lastly 60% ACD, this will be the easiest challenge for male performers to overcome but the hardest for female performers.<br> | |||
The easiest way to hit this goal would be using Poem of Bragi for 30% after cast delay, this is innately playable by male performers but female performers will need a {{#item:4560}} to cast this skill.<br> | |||
You should have 20% acd by default with end-game performer equipment which will add up to 50% with poem of bragi active.<br> | |||
If you're using the Time Gap weapon combo with the Crown, you'll get the last 10% acd you need to reach 60% innately; however if you are using a different headgear, such as a Yorscalp Crown, you'll need to get the last 10% ACD elsewhere.<br> | |||
The easiest place to get 10% acd would be with an [A]-grade Mad Bunny given the After Cast Delay enchant to provide 10% ACD in total, however do note that the Mad Bunny has 5% less vct than a Glacier Guard, so you'll need to find that vct elsewhere if you aren't using a beelzebub card.<br> | |||
Another option would be using a Gambler's seal with 10% after cast delay, however this can be very, very expensive. A much cheaper but similar option would be a Victory Wing Ears enchanted with 10% acd.<br> | |||
You could also use two Isaac Wigner Cards which provide 5% acd each to reach 10%.<br> | |||
There are a lot of options for acd available, so check what works best for you. | |||
This is all assuming you have access to Poem of Bragi however, so what if you don't?<br> | |||
In this case you'll have a hard time getting the after cast delay you need.<br> | |||
If you're rich enough to have a Kiel Card you could easily throw that on, but more realistically you'll be looking at shadow gear to get the after cast delay reduction you need to reach 60%.<br> | |||
Seperate Reload Shadow Shield can give you 10% ACD at +10, and a Mega Blitz Shadow Weapon can give you 7% acd at +10 as well, you can also use reload costume enchant in the dual slot to get an extra 5% without sacrificing too much damage.<br> | |||
You'll need to use multiple of the options listed above to make up for not having access to poem of bragi, however '''I genuinely wouldn't recommend trying this build without Poem of Bragi''' or a kiel card.<br> | |||
Any damage you gain by using Rhythmical Wave against crowds will likely be lost by you needing to sacrifice a lot of damage-boosting equipment just to make Rhythmic spammable. | |||
Remember that Rhythmical Wave does near-identical damage to metallic fury against a sound-blended target, however if you're sacrificing a lot of damage gear just to cast rhythmic wave, you're likely going back to your regular metallic fury aoe damage that you had in the first place; what would be the point?<br> | |||
If you want to try this build, I recommend getting a clown card if you're a female performer, if you're a male performer then this won't be a problem for you since you'll already have Poem of Bragi innately. | |||

With that wall of text out of the way, let's get into the actual build itself. | |||

The important part is just that you hit the stat goals listed at the start of the guide '''without sacrificing on too much damage gear'''. | |||
Remember that Rhythmical Wave isn't a massive damage upgrade over Metallic Fury, it's just a ~28% damage increase against crowds. (no change vs single-target enemies, if not a small drop) | |||
Rhythmical Wave is a great skill to build into if you can afford it, but you shouldn't feel the need to rush towards it if you aren't already geared up yet. | |||
Take your time and you'll get the gear you need to pull it off eventually. | |||
