Tiresdonexits' Realm Swash Volley 3 Arena Farmer Build Guide

Introduction

Stacking any Realmshifter Swash build full of crimson pinions creates a delicate balancing act between available mana and your maximum attack stat. So by using Fey Arrows as our off-hand we can forget about balancing mana and in-fact forget about mana entirely and smash out arena wins using the Volley 3 off-hand skill instead. Farming arena is ideal for accumulating Greater Souls, a fairly rare material that's used to upgrade a tonne of endgame items.

Pros & Cons

🠗 Occasionally lose fights without knowing why, breaking the flow
🠗 Gets more consistent with higher attack stat
​

Gear

We can generally just go for max attack here and at the very least we don't have to worry about mana at all so can pack in crimson pinions however we like. A good status immunity option is Aldon's Hat as stun is most likely the most common status we get hit with, although if you just kill them first there's not much coming in the way of retaliation.
Use your highest attack weapon, ensuring you have preferred weapon bonus for that 5%.
Fey Arrows are the one item that make this build work, thanks to Volley 3. So work towards finding a better quality Fey Arrows however you should be able to use this build with a normal quality version, level up and Masterforge each one you find of better quality, every little attack helps. The materials are quite common.
Chest is Lunar Garb from Titan kingdom raid. A really high base attack on this makes it ideal for crimson pinions and you don't need loads of them.
Unknown origin boots for the 8 slots all crimson pinion filled, if you don't have a lot of pinions use Lunar Boots.
​Use your best Arisen Rings to bost attack and lower defense as much as possible.
​

Skills

​Lol. None needed. Volley 3 is gained automatically from equipping Fey Arrows in off-hand.
​

Stats

Attack above 6.5k should allow you farm like this relatively easily.
The goal should be to breach 9k attack to genuinely demolish everybody in the arena without care.
Be sure to have party bonus and preferred weapon bonus available, as swash makes these bonuses very lucrative in terms of boosting our attack stat.

Pets

​Mighty Mimic or Chimera to buff attack vs beefier enemies. I prefer Mighty Mimic as you can guarantee the double attack up buff to proc when you need it. However Chimera is still acceptable and it saves you from having to change your pet from raiding.

Greater Yokai for status afflictions and dots. If you notice you start getting annoyed at last chance proccing enemies all too regularly you may want to consider this purple bad boy. Goes well with some broken Fey Dragon gear to increase its action rate a tad.
