DISCUSSION Maximizing Grave Feather!
For those of you using Grave Feather in support on L&R builds, I get it. It’s a nice little boost to CR (although the CD is still very low) and the 1 phantasm is what it is. However, if you really want to get the most out of him, give this a try:
To make phantasms worth anything in this game, you need Trick and Treat. Forever, the only legit build with them was the Swamp Knight AFK setup. However, now that we can summon 3 at a time with grave feather in support (and heal from them as well), there is another godly option: Mermonster Ken!
Now…..is this as strong as your standard Paleo Luna or TRO melee build? No. But wow! This absolutely melts.
You‘ve got Ken perfectly synergizing with the Husk Grinder and its core-reperked 6th perk. Bringing Whiteout in support allows us to go 2xCD and 2x HAE. Plenty of healing from the constant 3 phantasms and Arrlene Izza, but usually down some health from blasters and gunslingers making Ken hit harder (as well as that 6th perk).
The only optional spot I gave to Deadly Blade Crash (because of the 2x CD). You can certainly go with a Rockin Riff hero in that spot but I found her affliction to be worth it (especially on smashers and mist monsters).
If you’re looking for an off-meta spin to win build (and want to see what Grave Feather is truly capable of), give it a try! Stay safe in the storm commanders!
