Resurrected Musketeer

Build Overview

The Resurrected Musketeer is a Faith and Focus-based build that uses a rapier and shield. Its core concept revolves around the Scarlet Ring, which swaps your maximum health and focus pools. By stacking focus-increasing gear, this creates a character with an exceptionally large health pool (around 600 HP) and an incredible focus generation rate, allowing for constant use of powerful rune attacks.

Key Features

Core Ring Synergy: The build's "secret sauce" is pairing the Scarlet Ring (swaps max health with max focus) with the Band of Calmness (increases max focus by 50%), resulting in a massive health pool.

Rapid Focus Generation: The Siren Queen's Horn rapier's normal attack combo ends in a flurry of piercing attacks that rapidly fills the focus bar.

Low-Cost Runes: The build utilizes efficient, low-cost rune attacks like Tornado Strike and Brutal Reprise (50 focus cost) to take advantage of the high focus gain for consistent damage and effects.

Multiple Healing Sources: Survivability is extremely high due to stacking enchantments that allow you to regain health through various combat actions:

  • Gain health on rune attacks.
  • Gain health on parry.
  • Gain health on damage dodged.

Easy Stamina Management: The Jade Ring provides significant stamina back when attacking, synergizing perfectly with the rapier's flurry combo to ensure stamina is rarely an issue.

Playstyle

This build features a highly aggressive and resilient playstyle. The primary goal is to engage enemies with the full normal attack combo to quickly generate focus. This focus is then spent on low-cost rune attacks, which not only deal damage but also heal you, allowing you to stay in the fight indefinitely. Players are encouraged to actively use parries and dodges, as both are sources of healing and other benefits. Thanks to easy stamina management, you can maintain constant pressure on enemies with a relentless combination of attacks, dodges, and rune abilities.
