Why this setup

How to play it and why it works.

  • Drop Fuuga on the boss and fight inside the field
  • Use projectile slashes to control adds without leaving the field
  • Ride the defensive frames on 3 of 4 skills during boss rotations

Gear direction

  1. Ring with the most offensive affix lines (per multiple community sources, rings carry the most damage affixes)
  2. Head/body gear with Skill Damage and Critical Damage affixes
  3. Match every remaining affix to Strength scaling — defensive affixes are reforge fodder

Progression

  1. Farm the Sukuna lane in Boss Rush from floor 40 toward 100
  2. Bank Sukuna Fragments — 50 crafts a guaranteed Cursed Shrine at the Forge
  3. Stack Strength while leveling the class; add crit-damage affixes as gear allows
  4. Push mastery for +20% skill damage and -5% cooldowns

Alternatives

Anti Magic

Tankier lane class (410 HP) with a 3-second stun — pick it if Cursed King's HP pool scares you.

Honored One

The magic-lane equivalent with an auto-dodge skill, if you prefer casters.
