Assassin/Ninja Help Dawnbreak Heavy Melee

How do you put dawnbreak into heavy melee? Is it better to run blind thrust? No crafteds and make the build for an assassin please

 

Well the most common heavy melee assasin build I have seen is this one https://wynndata.tk/s/0b3yuv
But I personally think that doing whacky stuff like this with dawnbreak is worth it https://wynndata.tk/s/7qw3zu

 

I currently use a variation of the first build
https://wynndata.tk/s/ks8j5c
the second build looks fun but why tenuto for the necklace?

 

Good point I didn't switch it from before when I had to use tenuto to wear another bracelet I was using. It is quite worthless now.
EDIT: Golemlus Core works just fine instead of tenuto.

 

Also why air and water powder specials on Armor? Shouldn’t it use earth and fire?

 

Controversial opinion : armor powder specials are useless meanwhile having -350 water defense and -200 air defense is a suicide with a close range build.

EDIT: Useless unless some expections like GMa pvp builds etc.

 

Why not Diamond Solor?

 

Not enough skill points

 

Yeah you have 1 extra with gomlemlus core so gold is the best you can get
