- Opener: Charge, Bladeburst (immune), Charge, Pursuit – grants Foresight, Pursuit - Root holds the target for 3 s.
- During Foresight: Longsword Thrust, Quick Slash, Ultimate Slash, Blade Wind, Cleave Down. Once the target is down, Slaughter grants 3 Sharpwake. Then Charge and Twin Slash – Breakthrough consumes the stacks, Mind's Eye resets Bladeburst.
- Loop: Triple Slash, Heavy Kick, Frenzy – a Bloodstorm without HP cost that grants Bloodforge. Then Hemorrhage and Crimson Surge; Bloodforge and Bloodthirst heal through damage.
- Triple Slash into Closing Slash: Lifeflame heals, Foresight starts over.
- After a Stun, Suppress is ready; Counterattack after Parry resets Pursuit.
- Crimson Covenant: 5 s of Crimson Surge without HP cost, but you bleed and cannot heal. Drink a Vigorflow Potion first, the pact costs 425 SP.
- Below 50 % HP: press Q for the greatsword, Pommel Strike, Demolishing Strike, Fatal Cleave (Cleaving Art: Immortal), Vengeful Rush (30 s less damage taken). Swapping ends Bloodforge.
