General Information
This guide is created by community members as a compilation of class related information. This is not meant as a new player guide; if you are a new player we suggest reading Maxroll’s Build Guides instead. If you have any feedback or want to help with class discussions, join our Discord! You can toggle the specific build you want to see at the top.

How does my identity work?

Scrapper Identity

Your identity consists of a Stamina gauge and a Shock gauge.

Stamina skills consume Stamina gauge and generate Shock gauge.

Shock skills consume Shock gauge and generate Stamina gauge.


Additionally, you’ll have access to Tenacious Power or Asura Energy.

When filled, they each grant you access to a unique state.

For more information on how they work, check the Engravings and FAQ sections of each build.

Notes

 

  • Pre-Ark grid and 311 builds, take 1 point into Energy Shield. Once you have 331 you can go 2/5 in Brawl King Acuity because you don't auto anymore, hence you don't generate the Energy Shield.
  • You can adjust points in Keen Sense depending on your personal crit rate and if you are playing with a crit syn. Ideally you want to sit around 95% crit rate. 
  • To calculate this, start with where you want to be, in this example, 95%. Then subtract 15% (Limit Break Tripod on your shock skills), 7% from Master, 14-20% based on your Adrenaline level. e.g. if I have relic adrenaline, I want to see 53% or more crit on my character sheet. (Character sheet crit includes bracelet and ring effects so no need to subtract or add them)

Super charge is now a recommended engraving due to the most recent January 2026 balance patch that made Nebula Crusher a charging skill.

T Skill and Awakening

Nebula Crusher
Nebula Crusher
  • Nebula Crusher significantly boosts your burst in cycles where this skill is available, even without Leap nodes.
  • If rotation is executed timely and properly, this skill is available for every second Brawl King Stance.
Awakening
Butterfly Sting
Hyper Awakening
Fist of the Sun and the Moon

 

  • Choose Butterfly Sting when you have Ark Grid activate.
  • Because this awakening fills up our meter completely, it allows us to burst again rapidly.
  • If you are 331, try to time the usage so that you get the largest amount of -CD on your EOTS/T

FAQ

What Elixirs should I use?

Critical if you have full Relic Adrenaline

Master is almost equal (0.5% difference), do not recut elixirs if you don’t have Critical already.

Master if you only have Legendary Adrenaline 

Enhanced basic attacks

 

During Brawl King Stance, every third basic attack becomes enhanced, lowering the active cooldown of your normal skills by 5%.

However, after using a Stamina skill, the next basic attack becomes enhanced regardless of whether you performed any other basic attacks before it.

This allows you to weave the CDR effect between your skills to hasten your next cycle.

Enhanced basic attacks must hit a target (regardless of whether they deal damage or the target is Invincible) in order for the effect to take place. Hitting the air will not trigger it.

Saving Stimulants

Although Butterfly Sting is not very useful during fights, it doesn’t need to hit an enemy in order to fill up your meter.

This means that if you have downtime before a fight starts (e.g. someone is AFK, mechanic explanations, etc), this awakening can be used to fill up your meter and save some costs on Stimulants.

 

Here’s the setup you should use in order to reduce its cooldown to roughly 1:20m

  • 30 Swiftness points

  • Lv. 4 Epic Awakening

  • Awakening Ability Stone

  • Remember to swap back to Celestial Door (even if it’s on cooldown)!
