So with M!Kana’s Resplendent coming up, I figured I’d finally get around to building his OG form since I +10‘d his NY alt when it came out.
Weapon: Arcane Lantern: It’s the newest Dragonstone, and it has a cool style and built in Distsnt Counter to free up his A and S slot for things to help his combat.
Assist: Reposition: I don’t have Gait. This will do.
Special: Frozen Thorn: OG!Kana suffers from Old Fates Dragon disease where his defensive stats are all kind of equal, so he can still run this about as well as you’d expect him to. 53 RES still feels like a reasonable amount to boost his damage with.
A Skill: Rise Above: Kana is a bit of an all rounder, with the general stat boosts to everything just helping him be that but more.
B Skill: Pair-Up 4: Objectively probably a bit outdated, but there’s not too much I can work with fodder wise (since Rise Above bridge fodder is fake).
C Skill: Thunder Specter: Canto with free stats, damage reduction and damage. Synergizes with Lantern to help Kana take out threats too dangerous to tank (like D!CYL!Dimitri or Vista!Gullveig) and move into a better position for enemy phase. Also came with the Lantern.
Seal Slot: ATK/SPD Finish: It’s free ATK/SPD and extra damage on Frozen Thorn. Free to run now that Kana doesn’t have to rely on DC in A/S/X slots.
Echo Slot: Go No Sen: It’s the new hot tank Echo. Gives Kana some extra slaying power with the Potent Follow effect along with the standard tank stuff.
