Reworked Skill Explained

• Dancing Flower: Even after rework, it is still difficult to find value from it. It is still mostly used in combination with Dodging Stance, when you stand still for resting, injury, and so on. During fights it is very difficult to achieve. It also doesn't receive the stacking ability anymore from Parry.

• Polearm Mastery: The reworked ability means there's no stacking for Dancing Flower. This is good as it is difficult to find Dancing Flower value. So now you have a temporary boost for extended fights. You also receive some Stamina after rework to Craft Efficiently all through the game. Reworked Max Stamina means it can be combined potentially with Blue Cell Lung Capacity Increment.

General Tips

• Early: Should claim his first area with his new base 17 ATK. But his reworked ATK Growth means he will end at 54.8 ATK instead of 58.8. Craft Efficiently with your Stamina restoration from reworked Parry to set yourself to end game.

• Mid: Parry starts finding more value with scaling based on Level as well for extended fights. Find ways to use Dancing Flower when relevant.

• Late: One last Polearm Mastery for the last fight. Luckily the reworked effect lasts for 12 seconds.
