⚙️ Legendary Power Mechanics
This item’s power fundamentally changes the nature of the Ascendancy skill:
-
Damage Conversion: Ascendancy deals [100-140]%[x] increased damage. This is a massive, independently multiplicative damage bonus, forming the foundation of its offensive power.
-
Mechanical Transformation: Grants +3 additional Ranks to Ascendancy and doubles its travel distance. This turns a short-range mobility skill into a core movement and damage tool capable of traversing complex terrain and covering significant screen distance.

This item is a targeted drop from specific bosses:
-
Primary Drop Sources: Grigoire, The Galvanic Saint or The Beast in the Ice.
-
Recommendation: After reaching World Tier IV, farming these bosses by repeatedly using their respective summoning materials is the most efficient acquisition method.

🔧 Gearing Suggestions (Aspects, Sanctification & Stats)
1. Core Aspect Recommendations
| Equipment Slot | Recommended Aspect | Benefit Analysis |
|---|---|---|
| Amulet | Aspect of the Dire Whirlwind | Increases damage while moving. Perfectly synergizes with the constant-charging playstyle. Top priority. |
| Gloves/Weapon | Edgemaster’s Aspect | Directly increases the Critical Strike Damage of Ascendancy as a Core skill. |
| Helm/Chest | Aspect of the Protector | Grants a Damage Absorption Barrier after using Ascendancy, mitigating the survival risks of close-quarters combat. |
2. Recommended Sanctified Affixes
For the additional Legendary power from Sanctification, prioritize “After using a Movement skill, damage dealt is increased” to further amplify output. A defensive option like “After using Ascendancy, gain a Damage Absorption Barrier” is a strong secondary choice.
3. Additional Gearing Notes
-
Oath Selection: The Fanatic Oath is optimal, leveraging Ascendancy’s high attack frequency to trigger Critical Strike echoes. The Zealot Oath is a viable alternative if the build requires it.
-
Stat Priority: Cooldown Reduction > Movement Speed > Critical Strike Chance/Damage > Attack Speed.
-
Skill Points: Maximize the Ascendancy skill and prioritize its damage-increasing and cooldown-reducing skill nodes.
