<big>~~Gaebolg and Yorscalp Gear~~</big>

<big>Crimson Arrow Build</big>

[[~~21_Age_of_Heroes~~#~~Equipment~~|~~Gaebolg and Yorscalp Gear~~]] are both powerful gears that will provide an increase in damage from Phase 4 (especially Yorscalp). However, due to the high cost of resources, high reputation costs, and the difficult mvps/instances needed to create and enchant these gears, I do not currently recommend them as an intermediate step between Phases 4 and 5. Instead, I recommend that you go directly to Phase 5.

At this point, moving into Stage 5, it may be worthwhile considering whether you want to use the SVS build or the [[Choi's_SVS_Arch_Mage_Guide#Crimson_Arrow_Build|Crimson Arrow Build]].

== Crimson Arrow Build ==

{{#skill:5235}} Build is a very powerful build that provides both great damage and supportive abilities, and it thrives in party settings with multiple DPS. This build is especially useful for difficult bosses like {{#linkmob:20994}} and {{#linkmob:22174}}. With Comet and All Bloom, you can increase the overall output of your party's damage by a significant amount, especially if they are using fire element. However, I don't recommend this build for general farming due to Crimson Arrow's small AOE and its reliance on {{#item:640049}} limiting the use of shields. Generally, most concepts from the SVS build will carry over in this build. However, here are some additional details to help you with the build:

While the SVS build relies heavily on its ground skills for DPS, the Crimson Arrow build does not. As such, the Crimson Arrow build does not incur a DPS loss from the damage loss on Climax 4 All Bloom and benefits from the Fire bonus.

The Gear in Phase Five is assuming that you are using this build for Rigel and Betel. The Gear in Phase Six is the final end game gear.

Overall, ~~{{#item:400981}}/~~{{#item:640064}} is the stronger DPS build and focuses on Climax 3.

Overall, {{#item:640064}} is the stronger DPS build and focuses on Climax 3. {{#item:400724}} will provide more dps with the {{#item:313427}} proc. Otherwise, {{#item:400981}} is stronger.

{{#item:400535}}/{{#item:640049}} is the stronger Crimson Arrow focused build and focuses on Climax 4.

~~{{#item:400724}} is also strong and will provide more dps with the {{#item:313427}} proc.~~
