Hey how come sometime i loose sharpness even if i am at 100%?

3 minute kill for spamming aerial attacks? yes please

This looks like tons of fun, I can't wait to give it a shot once PC gets the safi patch.

Thanks for the build man. I didn't use the Safi set because of the health drain but this looks really good, going to grind this one out when I get home!

Great Build, love it. Infinite purple sharpness indeed ;) With some tweaks also great for Safi's Blast DB and SnS.

This was an insane build. Thank you!

I started doing this with IG a week ago because I read he's week to blast and surprisingly used the same set. But I didn't have a blast IG so I was using a Dragon IG and making my insect spread blast powder and blast him.

The best build channel on KZread !! I would like to see a build for the hydro safi bowgun

Pretty much what I am using. Nice thing is that you can really play around with utility skills (you can drop power prolonger and blast attack and the build still works fine)

IG is the most fun I've ever had just the ability to float is amazing lol

For a heads up, this can be built with many set bonuses. Not just with Safi set, but with many other two piece sets like golden rathian and nergigante, very flexible, this was the first set I made on the release of Safi a few weeks ago. Also, if you don't have handicraft jewels. Just augment another line of sharpness, remove the sharpness VI, instead have a single like of critical VI. Then run 3 weakness exploit. So weapon will be: Teostra, sharpness V, sharpness V, Critical VI, Attack V

I made an elemental version of this. Dropped the sharpness and atk awakening on weapon for affinity VI+element V+V. Changed handicraft for coalesence and slotted in a 3rd coalesence. Change charm to element, slot in the last one. Gets infinite white, 1159atk, 650 element with Coa active ^^

Want to leave a thank you. I don't have all the same gems but I built something similar. Making Glaive Great Again

Can u tech how to make element value turn orange colour like your element blast 360 its orange

I have the exact same Insect glaive with the same buffs but it doesnt reach Purple sharpness even with Handicraft charm :'(

What kinsect were you running ?

I dont have any handicraft jewels, but I have everything else, should I just not worry about it, or do some sort of substitute?

I'm an IG veteran and despite knowing that ground attacks are better, I just love playing aerial. This is going to be my new end goal now that IB is on PC.

Uhhh no. My speedrun IG build has: Attack Boost lvl 7 Agitator lvl 5 Resentment lvl 5 Weakness Exploit lvl 3 The Safi weapon has: Attack 6 Attack 5 Attack 5 Sharpness 5 Teostra Technique It also has 100% affinity and a few QoL skills like Health Boost and Divine Blessing. Aerial IG builds are subpar damage compared to basic ground combos. This is a fun build that does decent damage but nowhere near the best, speaking in terms of meta dps builds. At the end of the day though, play what's fun for you.

'Teostra Technique' from his weapon. When that weapon is equipped it gives 1 bonus Teostra armor piece bonus. To be more specific, it gives 1 masters touch bonus. so with the 2 kaiser piece he already has on, that makes 3 which is what it needs to activate the masters touch effect.
