A micro-optimization of the POWER build described as described by | |
Themris in https://imgur.com/gallery/xoBunR9. Disclaimer, I haven't | |
played the Triforce all the way through yet, so I'm making a lot of this | |
up / leaning on the original guide. Also a mild *item spoiler* below. | |
Observations: | |
1. The choice of Simulacrum at level 6 is a weak point in the POWER | |
build. COURAGE and WISDOM retain it in their final builds, but POWER | |
is going to drop it just 3 levels later. | |
2. Level 8 has a couple competing options. Reaching back for Pragmatic | |
Reinforcement maximizes the cheese, if there's light available to pay | |
for it. But reaching back for Boiling Arc is also reasonable for the | |
movement, especially if combined with [solo scenario item] and a +1 | |
move enhancement. | |
3. Primal Duality is a core part of the final build, but if we take it | |
at level 4, we're not going to be able to use it for at least 2 levels. | |
Suggestion: | |
1. Take Boiling Arc at level 4. Or take it at level 3 and then Burial | |
at level 4, either way. | |
2. Reach back for Primal Duality at level 6. | |
3. Reach back for Pragmatic Reinforcement at level 8. | |
Result: | |
1. The final POWER build is unchanged if you bring Lava Eruption, but | |
you wind up with Boiling Arc *and* Pragmatic Reinforcement as flex | |
options. | |
2. In the mid levels, if you use Boiling Arc (top) to pay for Ice Spikes | |
(top), then you can use Stoking Hail for its stun top instead of its | |
element bottom. |
