Collected from the builds of players clearing endgame: Shiyu Defense and Deadly Assault. This is a statistic of choice, not a recommendation: it shows what is equipped more often, not what is stronger. A deliberate off-meta build lands at the bottom of this list while still being perfectly workable.
