Stellar Blade is a complex game, and it can be tough to know which skills to choose when diving in. It can be overwhelming with so many options, but after spending hours playing the game, we’ve identified the best choices to grab as soon as you can. Here’s our list of half-a-dozen great choices and why we think you should buy them first:
Blink: This is the most important skill in the game, allowing you to dodge incoming attacks that glow blue by teleporting behind the enemy. This skill is particularly effective against enemies with a shield and bosses, which often have long recovery times.
Repulse: As its name suggests, this skill allows you to repulse the attacking enemy away from you when they are performing a fatal attack. With some practice, you will be able to nail the timing and use this technique to your advantage.
Double Dodge: This skill makes dodging even easier and removes input delays between dodges, ensuring you can survive a lot longer.
Reflection: After you’ve dodged, you can’t get back up close to an enemy quickly, but Reflection fixes that by allowing you to rush into your targeted enemy with a strong, piercing blow. It can really elevate your combat skills and ensure you make the most of every window and opportunity to attack.
Beta Energy Recharge: This skill maximizes your Beta energy gains and prevents you from running low on Beta skills during fights, especially when fighting lots of enemies, a well-armored foe, or if you need to eliminate a Naytiba quickly.
Shield Damage Boost: This skill is excellent in fights, as it knocks off a substantial chunk of your enemy’s shield, allows you to land some follow-up attacks, and complete a combo when its shield has completely depleted.
