Best Hard Mode Ultimate Lepic Build

Ultimate Lepic Hard Mode Build Showcase

Check out this 12-second Hard Devourer clear using our Lepic Hard Mode Build! Note that this run is from a Base Lepic build, with the skill module exclusive to Ultimate Lepic, this build is easily outshined by the Ultimate version.

Best Ultimate Lepic Modules (Hard Mode)

The build revolves around increasing the damage of Ultimate Lepic's Grenade and Overkill abilities to burst down bosses, and instantly clear mobs. The primary modules that make this possible are Fire Specialist, Skill Insight, Skill Concentration, Emergency Measures, and Front Lines.

Firearm Master is the primary module for this build as this grants a major boost to Ultimate Lepic's skill power whenever he activates Overkill. The rest of the modules are focused on utility and survival. At the maximum level, you should be able to achieve at least a million damage per Overkill hit.

Alternative Modules for Solo Boss Fights

Iron Defense and Battle of Stamina are great alternatives for this build if you play solo against Void Bosses. Assuming that you have a complete setup with your Reactor and External Components, these modules will allow you to increase your overall damage at the cost of your survivability.

Best Ultimate Lepic Weapons and Modules

Best Weapon Modules

The Thunder Cage is chosen as the best weapon for this Ultimate Lepic build due to its mobbing capabilities. The most important modules in this Thundercage build are the Fire Conductor which synergizes with Lepic's fire abilities, and Fire Rate UP which also increases the fire rate of Lepic's Overkill.

Other modules that are slotted in focus on increasing the weapon's overall damage, critical strike and damage, as well as weak point damage.

Best Ultimate Lepic Equipment

Equipment	Substat Priority
Burning Mechanics Reactor	• Additional Skill ATK When Attacking Colossus • Skill Critical Hit Rate • Skill Critical Hit Damage • Fire Skill Power Boost Ratio • Tech Skill Power Boost Ratio
Slayer Auxiliary Power	• Max HP • MP Recovery Out of Combat
Slayer Sensor	• MP Recovery in Combat • Max MP
Slayer Memory	• DEF • Shield Recovery in Combat
Slayer Processor	• Attribute Resistance • Max Shield

Note that External Components with set bonuses have fixed main stats.

A Burning Mechanics Reactor is important for Ultimate Lepic as both his Grenade and Overkill abilities are considered Fire and Tech, giving this build a huge damage boost from the reactor bonus. For the substats, it's best to look for Skill Critical Hit Rate, Skill Critical Hit, and Additional Skill ATK when Attacking Colossus to achieve millions of damage for each Overkill hit.

The Slayer External Component Set is great for Ultimate Lepic due to its 4-set bonus which grants an additional 25% Skill Power, granting even more damage for Lepic's abilities.

Ultimate Lepic Playstyle Tips

Use Overclock Before Grenade or Overkill

Using Overclock significantly increases the damage of Lepic's abilities and allows Ultimate Lepic's abilities to inflict burn. Burn DoT (damage over time) from abilities can also land critical hits, which is extremely useful for any type of content, allowing Lepic to nuke and burn any enemy in the game.

Roll to Cancel Overkill Animation

To save time and the duration of Ultimate Lepic's overkill, simply roll to cancel its startup animation. This allows you to fire immediately instead of wasting a few seconds of Overkill's duration.

Best Ultimate Lepic Weapon and Modules (Normal)

Thunder Cage is the best early ultimate weapon for Ultimate Lepic as its unique ability has great mobbing potential which is extremely useful for saving MP.

Loading this weapon with modules and stats that synergize with burn will make this weapon even better for mob-clearing, allowing you to increase your damage even against elite mob groups.

Other modules focus on increasing the weapon's Fire Rate, Reload Speed, and Accuracy to improve the weapon's performance for all types of missions.

Best Weapons Tier List

Best Ultimate Lepic Reactor (Normal)

Reactor	Substat Priority
Burning Mechanics Reactor	・Skill Power ・Sub Attack Power ・Fire Skill Boost Ratio ・Tech Skill Boost Ratio

Using a Burning Mechanics Reactor will give you the most bonus effects since almost all of Ultimate Lepic's abilities are Fire and Tech. For the substats, try to look for Fire Skill Power Boost Ratio and Tech Skill Boost Ratio to further improve the effectiveness of your skills.

Best Ultimate Lepic External Components (Normal)
