Notes & Builds

• The first effect is very important for any Yokai Shift focused build, and the second can get you to Yokai Shift faster, though a Pleiades effect is generally preferred.
• Melee Damage (Dark Realm) is too niche to rely on, and while Anima Bonus (Amrita Absorption) is nice to extend the use of Yokai Skills like Maelstrom, it's poor as a Anima Fill tool.
• Combining with Magatsuhi's Grace will allow the endgame bonus effect to be live more consistently, but other set bonuses can produce the same amount of damage with more relevant passives.
