What Powders Are Typically Best To Put On An Infused Hive Dagger?

overall, what is best for, let's say, soloing bosses?

 

Depends on which boss you’re talking about.

 

well, im planning to do LI soon.

 

Okay, good for you but which exact boss? No element is gonna be good for every single boss.

 

I think it's better to leave it unpowdered or to substitute it into a build where there isn't a good other choice for you to use, but that's just me. You can use it in any build and with any powder and it'll still be good; it is a hive weapon after all.

 

i would use earth powders cause quake does a ton of damage

 

Water is generally the best damaging element for LI from my experiences. It's strong against The Mummyboard and Death Metal, the only ones resistant to it are Mechorrupter, Idol's 7th and 8th phases and probably one of the Dr. Legendary phases (plus Virus doctor and Robob but they have rainbow def).

To summarise it, there are only 3 out of 10 bosses that resist it for the entire battle (1 out of 10 where it actually matters) and it works against every other boss, I'd call it the best element for LI. Still, you should keep a secondary or two to counter some of the other bosses.
