One hit KO

Bundles

Core Items

Battle Axe

While the enemy has armor, double your attack

Petrified Edge

Double your attack. On Hit: gain 1 stun

Cracked Whetstone

First Turn: Temporarily gain 2 attack

Additional Damage

Purity

Used to keep yourself alive while also increasing attack.

Leather Waterskin

Used to gain a significant amount of purity when exposed. When paired with Boiled Ham, Clearspring Rose, and one Melon Wine, you are able to remove a lot of purity regularly, along with status effects like stun or freeze. Additionally, Blacksmith Bond will allow you take advantage of Leather Waterskin twice.

Summary

A straightforward build where the objective is to end the fight with one or a few blows. Purity and whetstone will ramp up your damage significantly, as each purity removed will count as 4 damage on your next strike. This is typically effective for builds that heavily rely on armor or many turns to ramp up their damage. This build is particularly weak against opponents that inflict several or many status effects, especially stun and freeze.
