Tonkkatt's unique trait allows you to get free uncombineable heat procs that will spread with Melee Influence
- Although it is currently bugged so that these heat procs do not increase damage with more stacks, they are still great for the DoT and armor strip
- Synergizes well with the AOE from Melee Influence
Generic light attack spam build used to clear massive crowds
- [Primed Reach] makes crowd clearing much more efficienct and synergizes well with Melee Influence
Tennokai isn't needed but can be added at your discretion
- Losing combo with heavy attacks is a valid way to build up the unique trait as well
Other Options:
Initial combo will build up the unique trait, allowing you to quickly gain and maintain stacks
If you do not wish to use a bane, Weeping Wounds can dramatically increase your status chance
- Will be a noticeable damage loss but still maintains good damage
Melee Afflictions can be used over Melee Influence
- Sovereign Outcast has several knockdowns and lifts in it's combos
- A heavy attack build utilizing the forced slash and knockdown on heavy attack with [Galvanized Reflex] can make for strong single target damage
Melee Duplicate can be used if you drop Galvanized Steel for Organ Shatter as this reaches 124% crit chance for nearly doubled damage
- Solid single target damage but struggles against crowds
