The First Descendant - Luna DPS/Support Build

Luna Build with Tips on How to Use Effectively

By Norecane.

Noise Surge

DPS Build focuses on AOE clear:

Skill spam (no main weapon shooting) – Spam the same skill repeatedly, to build stacks (switching skills has a big gap in timing).
Skills only goes on CD when you miss skill timing.
Cannot buff team, only self.
Worth stacking Shield/Mana pool due to passive restoration from boosted skills.

All Boosted Skills add a tiny bit more damage, as well as restores 50% Shield and Total mana

Red – Skill Power (Boosted adds crit hit rate).
Blue – Mana Regen (Boosted adds crit hit damage).
Purple – CD reduction (Boosted adds stacks which provide addition skill power mod).

Nimble Footsteps

Adds stacking buff: Maxes at 10 stacks with 200% range and 20% Movement Speed.

Support is AOE buffing while still dealing consistent damage with her unique weapon attack.

Need to use main attack to increase self buff – rotate through skill 2 and 3, skill 4 will stack gauge allowing for the boosted skill.

To Entire Team

Red – Skill Power (Boosted adds more skill power)
Blue – Mana Regen (Boosted has initial % mana restore, then the restore over time)
Purple – CD reduction (Boosted increased CDR)

Suggested Mods

DPS:

Crit / Crit Damage, Range, Skill Power Mod, Shield, Mana

I am using the sonic set with added 2 pieces on shield (Total MP 300, Shield 3900) – with this mana pool as long as i hit all skills i never run out of mana, thanks to the restoration on boosted casting. Rarely also do the mobs break my shield.

Support:

Crit/Crit Damage, Range, HP, Resist,

I have some skill CD to balance Maximize Power – this is mostly for the 4th skill has a big 80sec base CD, and that is the most efficient way you get your boosted songs. Because of this, I dont think CDR is a bad thing to grab, though it also isn’t necessary, just mostly for QOL on your playstyle.

Also, due to there being much less frequent boosted songs, stacking shield is much less significant since you won’t be seeing the restore as much. Also mana isn’t too bad, as long as your timing is accurate.

Arche Concretion was obviously made for it, and the speed reduction is balanced by Nimble Foot (might hurt more if you don’t have that yet)

Weapon

Literally no effect on her damage/skill. the only mod so far that I have seen affect her unique weapon is the ammo mod, and it only adds a little bit at initial cast, but the ammo is so easy to come by, it is not at all worth building for.

Pick whatever weapon fits your reactor. I like Sniper for helping with immunity phases.
