Gabranth Builds

*build*

Tack on EX Depletion (Either Dismay Shock or Seal of Lufenia set accomplishes this). Can replace a booster or Battle Hammer (unless you chase alot, there's no need for Battle Hammer since EX Mode clears the AST gauge). That is all.

But wouldn't they be able to get their Assist guage back pretty quick in the fight? I'm just wanting to be cautious since EX break would ruin everything and set you back so much.

Gab's HP game isn't that great, that's why lol. Assist and Chase are your main ways of landing HPs most of the time, so just entering EX Mode at the most optimal of times (an example being when opponent has AST gauge filled) is good enough most of the time. So durr.

EDIT: Also, most of the time they're AST changing is because you have stockpiled a large amount of BRV and you're about to hit with an HP anyway. At least that's what happens every time I play as him.

In a competitive environment, having Assist Gauge Depletion forces them to Assist Change or Assist Block an attack. If you don't have any, then they can just take the damage and still have their Assist. It doesn't matter if they build it back quickly, but the very depletion of it is the important part.

Good point. I shall use dismay shock to replace Battle hammer.

Ah I see. That does make sense.
