Total Combo Effects
All of the “Total Combo Effects” listed in this guide are calculated by adding together the Set effect and the individual effects on each of the lightstones. This allows you to see what the actual total effects are and makes it easier to compare the total stats.
- For example: in the [Dedication] combat EXP combo listed below, the set effect of wearing Wind: Alert (Combat) x4 is 300% Combat EXP, however, each of the lightstones themselves give +25% EXP each, bringing the total to 400%.
Combat/Skill EXP Lightstones
The combat EXP combo is particularly useful for powerleveling alt characters.

|---|---|
[Dedication] | Total Combo Effects: Combat EXP +400% |
Lightstone of Wind: Alert (Combat)| Skill EXP Combo | |
|---|---|
[Way of the Fighter] | Total Combo Effects: Skill EXP +75% |

Lightstone of Earth: Fitted
Iridescent LightstoneOffensive Options
Both of the top 2 lightstone combos are offensive lightstone combos that are effective at any grind spot and are a more general PVE combo.
Vicious Shadow is a very good starter set for mid-tier grind spots such as Centaurs, all the way up to Elvia Orcs and Sycraia.
For the endgame spots such as Hexe, Oluns, Quint Hill, etc. The Deathblow combo is usually considered best in slot. However, for certain classes, you can reach 100% Critical Hit Rate more easily and don’t need the Critical Hit Rate from Deathblow. For these classes, you are better off sticking with Vicious Shadow. If you are unsure which to pick, check our class guides for the recommended combo for your class
In addition to these combos, you may also want to invest in the Species damage lightstone combos for certain spots. (Eg. [The Wild: Demihuman] combo is great at Elvia Orc Camp!)
Species damage is good to use if you are over the Monster AP Cap at a certain grind spot.
| Lightstone Combos | Effects | |
|---|---|---|
| Offensive Combo 1 | [Deathblow] | Total Combo Effects: Monster AP +16 Critical Hit Chance +14% |
| Offensive Combo 2 | [Vicious Shadows] | Total Combo Effects: Monster AP +13 Back Attack Damage +6% Critical Damage +3% |
| Species Damage (Demihuman) | [The Wild: Demihumans] | Total Combo Effects: Additional Demihuman Damage +30 |
| Species Damage (Human) | [The Wild: Humans] | Total Combo Effects: Additional Human Damage +24 |
| Species Damage (Kamasylvian) | [The Wild: Kamaslyvia] | Total Combo Effects: Additional Kamasylvian Damage +30 |

- Always keep Artifact #1 equipped, then swap between Artifact #2 or Artifact #3
- The 6 lightstones for the beginner setup are pretty easy and cheap to get, just preorder them on the central market and wait!
