This page sums up Fist of Gale Build | Sonic Daggers | Hardmode | Dimraeth by Zelendes. Each line links to the moment in the video it comes from.
What the video covers
- The tree is not the video maker's own. It follows a build by another YouTuber (the captions spell the name Gail Windscar), with maybe a few nodes changed. 0:41
- An Elf Brawler (Phase Duelist) at level 25, played on Hard. It has 10 Physique so it survives Hard on weak gear. 1:25
- Everything runs on
Backstep Strike: hitting with it gives Temporal Surge, and spending 5 Surge starts
Sonic Daggers for 5 seconds. The video casts Backstep Strike about every 5 seconds to keep the daggers going. 2:03
Temporal Cleave also turns spent Surge into Bleeding on nearby enemies, which feeds the rest of the tree. 3:28
Echoes Of Mutilation takes
Repeating Mutilation and
Harvesting Mutilation, so it eats Bleeding stacks for extra strikes. 2:55- The last points go into Critical Chance and Critical Damage against Bleeding enemies, and
Dismantle, which deals a Bleeding's remaining damage at once when it is consumed. 3:43 - The video sums the damage up as steady and flashy, with no huge single hits. 3:10

Pet and spell bar
Rotation
Backstep Strike Cast it on cooldown to build Temporal Surge. After 5 Surge the sonic daggers start firing with your attacks. 4:08
Savage Claw When you run into a pack, open with this (the video calls it Brutal Claw) to stack Bleeding. 4:36
Echoes Of Mutilation Follow up with this to cash in the Bleeding. 4:42
Backstep Strike Then back to Backstep Strike. 4:45
Notes from the video
- The spell bar holds
Backstep Strike,
Echoes Of Mutilation,
Frenzied Slashes,
Quick Jab and
Savage Claw. Frenzied Slashes (called Frenzy in the video) is for leveling, because it applies Bleeding. 1:53 - Use Focused Assault early in a fight: an Elf ability gives +15% Attack Damage for 3 seconds. 2:33
- The screen shows 59 points spent at level 25. Level 25 gives 48, so the other 11 come from first boss kills; the planner link counts them as bonus points. 2:35
- For the pet, take
Carrion Parrot for more Bleeding or
War Cat for Rage. The video says Rage is about 2% physical damage per stack; the game files give 3% per stack. 4:53 - Carry health, rage and stamina potions. Stamina runs out now and then. 5:12
- The gear goal is 6 pieces of
Lionspear and 5 of
Gorehorn. The video also wanted
Brutalclaw, to open fights with 10 Bleeding stacks, but had not found enough of it. 5:30 - The gear stats to look for, in order, are Physical Damage, Critical Chance, Critical Damage and then Piercing. The video prefers Physical Damage to Thrust Damage. 6:13
- The video farms Gorehorn from the Earlwood chests and the wolves, and Lionspear from the chests and the corrupted wolves. In the game files,
Gorehorn drops from
Wildwood Wolf and
Wildwood Aetherfang Wolf, and
Lionspear from
Wildwood Aetherfang Wolf;
Corrupted Wildwood Wolf drops neither. 6:27 - The worn pet is a
Carrion Parrot named Gummy, at pet level 8. 5:43 - All 12 slots are filled:
Lionspear on the rune, under-coat, belt, charm and both amulets (6 of 6),
Gorehorn on both rings, the first badge and one bracer (4 of 7), and
Brutalclaw on the other badge and bracer (2 of 5). The set tooltips light up these slots. 5:36 - Eleven pieces are shown in full. Only the under-coat, belt, charm and the Mythical amulet carry a forge level (+11, which the game shows for forge level 12). The rest are unforged, and the rune is a plain Common piece with one stat. The values on screen match our numbers for each level and star count. 5:28
