Claw based Servant

I actually want to make a servant based around this equip but I haven’t had the time or enthusiasm as of yet but I think it might have some things you’re looking for:

Pierrot Hat (Strengthened 2) [Additional]
DEF: 16
Autoskill+10% Absolute&Magic evasion+7% Auto recovery+20% Something happens 1% of the time.

It has a very strange auto I’ll explain in a sec, but the evasion stat is tremendously helpful and the auto recovery will increase bless’s mp/hp heal. With a high hp/mp pool, this is significant.

The auto though is something special for servants I think to explain it let’s look at it unstrengthened

Pierrot Hat [Additional]
DEF: 11
Autoskill+6% Something happens 1% of the time
(Hidden stats):
Autoskill +6%, Autoskill: Parry on Defense +1% Shell break +1% Additional Attack (small) +1% Additional Attack (Large) +1% Counter on Evasion +1% Spellburst +1%

Something happens 1% of the time is a bit of a misnomer, the auto is actually 6 different autos that occurs randomly. So 6% auto from the hat/6 chances= 1% of the time something happens. The 1% something happens seems to also refer to the auto’s base activation rate. (From my testing however, the large additional attack auto doesn’t seem to increase with auto % :/)

So wtf does all that mean? Well with max strengthened gear set of amber sail, dragon mail and Pierrot hat, you will have around 30% auto or essentially a 5% chance to spellburst, parry (30% dmg reduction), shell break, etc. etc.
If you build up your auto more however, you can leverage dragon mail’s/pierrot’s auto to reduce incoming damage (which is exponentially better with the decent absolute/magic eva rate), and increase your aura espada/ amber sail rate (60% auto is possible with these gears without using any equip xtals)

I think if you add all this up, there’s a solid build here. The damage wouldn’t be… well this is a servant right? @.@ I think if you’re looking to make a dmg character you’d be better off switching out your amber sail and going for monk. Your stats seem fine for what you’re trying to do. I would actually recommend going a little heavier on vit I think, eventually your normal atk won’t be the only way to do dmg, so your atk doesn’t need to be the highest. I think a build that looks something like int=vit>dex>agi might be best.

You’re very welcome, yes you’ll have to work hard but I think it will be worthwhile. Sorry if I put some things that are hard to understand. But essentially to do more damage/survive better you want to increase your autoskill% (the same stat on dragon mail and Pierrot, amber sail actually has some as a hidden effect too). Then you also want to have good hp (tank/support is servant’s play style also it makes your dragon mail better). After that you’re looking to increase your matk because it has a higher effect on your damage than atk at a high lvl.

But you don’t need to worry about that too much right now! Just keep leveling up and you’ll get there eventually.
