Rated T0 in Memory of Chaos, Pure Fiction and Apocalyptic Shadow in a patch 4.3 review. Beta showcases clear MoC 4.1 in 1 cycle at E0S0 and an E0S1 team clears MoC 4.3.
Optimizer benchmark team
MoC 4.1 V1 showcase, 1 cycle at E0S0 with Acheron E0S1, Tribbie E1, Welt E2
V1 showcase vs MoC 4.3 at E0S1; also a leaderboard team
- E1
- Enemies' All-Type RES drops by 20% while the Zone is active; after his Talent's Follow-up Skill, the Infinite Fury countdown's action is delayed by 15%.
- E2
- Ally Ultimate damage counts as a Follow-up ATK, all allies' Follow-up DMG rises by 75%, and his Charge cap goes to 7 for more Follow-up Skills sooner.
- E4
- Boosts the A6 Bonus Trace by an extra 50% DMG to allies while the Zone is active, for a new total of 100%.
- E6
- He gains 1 Charge whenever he takes DMG or consumes HP while the Zone is active; this can trigger again after any target's turn ends.
Complete and functional at E0; further eidolons are a nice boost but ultimately unnecessary, though the same review calls them more than you are prepared for.
Reforged in Hellfire; Divine-Querying Master Smith or Guard of Wuthering Snow 4pc, Bone Collection's Serene Demesne; Body CRIT Rate or CRIT DMG, Feet SPD, Sphere HP% or Fire DMG, Rope Energy Regen or HP%.

How far to invest
DoT team w/ Kafka, Black Swan, Hysilens, and DHPT (BS and Hysilens are E0S1, while Kafka is E0 using Tutorial LC, and DHPT is also E0 using Wildfire LC) I had a well-built Acheron (E0S1 tho) but then she unfortunately fell off power-wise after the Penacony or Amphoreus patches, I think.
E1 makes it so that while the Zone is active, all enemies' All-Type RES is reduced by 20%. After using his Follow-up Skill from his Talent, the countdown timer of his Infinite Fury state has its action delayed by 15%. E2 makes it so that whenever an ally character deals DMG by using their Ultimiate, it's considered as them having launched a Follow-up ATK. Follow-up DMG dealt by all allies increases by 75%. In addition to this, the upper limit of Mortenax Blade's Charge goes to 7, meaning you're getting even more Follow-up Skills even quicker. E4 will further boost the effects of his A6 Bonus Trace to provide an additional 50% DMG to allies while the Zone is active, for a new total of 100% (without factoring in the other benefits). Lastly, the E6. While the Zone is active, any time Mortenax Blade takes DMG or consumes HP, he gains 1 point of Charge. This can trigger again after any target's turn ends (so every single turn, essentially).
###### [Eidolons] The usual disclaimer about Eidolons: they are a nice boost, the character is complete and functional at E0 and further vertical investment is nice but ultimately unnecessary. That said, you aren't prepared for what these Eidolons are.

Leaks 3 posts naming Mortenax Blade · brief written by fable · 2026-10-23
The posts carry almost nothing about Mortenax Blade's kit: no element, path, role or mechanics are stated. Two vetted showcase posts place Mortenax Blade in teams with Acheron, Ashveil and either Welt or Hyacine, at E0S0 and at E2S1, clearing a 19 million HP Dark Sam Memory of Chaos in zero cycles, labelled as version 4.7 beta footage. An unreviewed post only mentions the name while asking for a different, older male character instead.
