Notes

Primary weapon: Grace Rapier (11 ATK). Secondary: Rosemond Pistol (11 ATK, ATK Spd Lv.2). Rotation opens with the pistol to brand the target at range, then Charged Piercing Light to close the gap, Sword Burst for the rapier burst window, Concentrated Shot to release the brand stacks, and Evading Shot to reset positioning. Repeat. Skill tree: Blue (Stamina Core) for Sword Flurry, Piercing Light, Marksmanship, and Grappling; Green (Spirit Core) for Focus (Spirit regen) and Keen Senses (parry window). Abyss Cores: Swift I on the rapier for attack speed, Destruction I on both weapons for flat ATK. Armor: full Demenissian Elite Uniform (Chapter 3 access); gloves and boots each add +13 attack on top of defense. Stamina 6+, Spirit 4+ to sustain Focus uptime. The build assumes near-perfect evasion. A single missed dodge against a late-game boss erases the whole rotation, which is why the skill ceiling is the highest of any Damiane build and the average-case DPS sits well below peak.

Rosemond Pistol

A cheaply made, low end pistol. As Demeniss's gunsmithing advanced, more affordable firearms began to appear on the market. Of course, not much can be expected of its performance.
