Deathblade

This build is for **SURGE** class engraving users.
You should know, that you can stack up your *"Surge"* buff 20 times (it's absolutely recommended!). Each skills that deal damage gives 1 stack (no more than 0.4 sec). So there is 2 stacking skills for the blade with low cooldown time (Spincutter and Wind Cut). These skills are what you have to use first when you enter to the combat trance ("Z" skill). Each stacks stores 7,5% extra damage for the next "Z" (Surge) skill, which deals damage. And in the same time, each stack provides 0,1/0,2/0,5 extra attack power to the character. This is what we call as "Burst" build. You should know, the combat trance gives more Attack and Movement speed as well. And each time you enter to the "CT", your skill's cooldown will be reduced (depends on your filled orbs and the amount of your speciality points). When you reach the 20 stacks on your buff, and use your surge skills, your identity gauge will be filled up to 100% (all 3 orbs). Each stacks gives back 5% of your identity gauge. And I have to admit, I use this build to do chaos runs as well for 2 reasons: 1.: it's quite effective and comfortable / 2.: I'm lazy to change it xD (what a shame).
