Skyrider Sword GUIDE

Understand Skyrider Sword

Useful when…

  • A sword user who values Energy Recharge
  • A character who can use the ATK and Movement SPD increase after activating a Burst

Burst-triggered effect

Using an Elemental Burst grants 12% more ATK and Movement SPD for 15 seconds at R1. Energy Recharge is the sword's secondary stat; the listed passive trigger is Burst use.

When to use the buff

The temporary ATK and Movement SPD increase may suit a wielder who can use those stats after a Burst. The listed effect triggers on Burst use.

Ascension and refinement

Weapon ascension progresses through six stages. Refinement raises the ATK and Movement SPD increase from 12% to 24%, and requires a sacrifice copy at each listed step.

How other swords differ

Amenoma Kageuchi restores Energy after a Burst by consuming seeds created with Skills. Aquila Favonia increases ATK and can trigger healing and nearby damage when its wielder takes damage. Absolution grants CRIT DMG and increases damage when Bond of Life value increases. These effects have different triggers and benefits from Skyrider Sword's Burst-triggered ATK and Movement SPD increase.

Limitations and tradeoffs

  • The ATK and Movement SPD increase requires using an Elemental Burst.
  • The increase lasts 15 seconds.
  • Refinement requires another copy.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Confusing Energy Recharge with the passive trigger; the listed buff activates on Burst use.
  • Treating the 15-second buff as permanent.
