Great Sword - Best Skills

Recommended Skills

SkillEffect/Recommendation
Attack Boost
(Priority: ★★★)
Effect:
Increases attack power.
Recommendation:
Has a simple and yet amazing skill to increase the attack. Aim for Lv 4 or higher for best effect.
Weakness Exploit
(Priority: ★★★)
Effect:
It increases the affinity of attacks that will exploit a monster's weak spot.
Recommendation:
Increased attack by leveling up the rate of affinity.
Critical Boost
(Priority: ★★★)
Effect:
It increases the damage of critical hits.
Recommendation:
Activate it with an equipment that has a high rate of attack. It works well with Weakness Exploit.
Focus
(Priority: ★★★)
Effect
Increases the fill rate for weapons with gauges and the charge rate for weapons with charge attacks
Recommendation
Shortens the time for Charged Slashes. This skill is not prioriized if you prefer Rage Slash.
Wirebug Whisperer
(Priority: ★★☆)
Effect
The available time/recovery speed of handling of Wirebugs.
Recommendation
Having this skill increases the chance of using Silkbind attacks frequently.
Quick Sheath
(Priority: ★★☆)
Effect
Increases weapon sheathing speed.
Recommendation
This skill is a must for Greatswords as they are frequently sheathed.
Stun Resistance
(Priority: ★★☆)
Effect

Recommendation
Since Greatsword users tends to use a lot of Armor Skills, the Stun Resistance can be built in other ways. This skill is ideal for Rage Slash users.
Evade Extender

Effect
Increases evade distance.
Recommendation
Useful for increasing mobility, even at Lv 1.
