This could allow him to forego [[Auto-Rebellion]] in PvE, if the first kill happens quickly. It also makes [[God's Hand]] far more affordable at 5 MP, improving performance against single-targets.

Crit Boosters:

* [[Auto-Rebellion]]: Best option as it is a guaranteed crit on the first hit, but only available via Yellow {{ArchIcon|arch=Yellow|size=15px}} {{DemonIcon|Tokisada|size=32px}} and Yellow {{ArchIcon|arch=Yellow|size=15px}} {{DemonIcon|Marici|size=32px}} as Gacha.

* [[Wicked Strike]]: Crit damage + crit rate modifier.
 +
* [[Epitome of Carnage]]: Boosts both crit rate and Phys damage.

* [[Bloody Glee]]: Early game/budget option

Accuracy Boosters:

* [[Great Aim]]: Highest accuracy booster.

* [[Epitome of Aggression]]: Boosts accuracy + has ailment resistance.

Damage Boosters:

* [[Phys Amp]]: Highest Phys damage modifier.
 +
* [[Wicked Strike]]: Crit damage + crit rate modifier.
 +
* [[Epitome of Carnage]]: Boosts Phys damage + Crit rate.
 +
* [[Phys Boost]]: Early game/budget option.
 +
 +
If using a {{ArchIcon|arch=Purple|size=15px|name=1}} build, transfer [[Fire Slash]] or [[Rending Fire]] if available. Damage boosters in this case should be for Fire instead of Phys.

===Brands===

*Stat priorities: Phys ATK%, Phys AC%, Critical%,.
 +
 +
* War: Boosts his damage. Especially important in [[Hell Gongen]] teams to dish out as much damage as possible. Allows his Herculean Strike to kill/weaken the adds during a boss fight, then boss killers like {{DemonIcon|Yoshitsune|size=32px}}, {{DemonIcon|Ose Hallel|size=32px}}, P3 {{DemonIcon|Mara|size=32px}}, etc. can focus solely on the boss.
 +
* Aim: Boosts his shaky accuracy to ensure no Press Turns are wasted. Plus, if he misses then he cannot crit to activate P3.
 +
