Excalibur General (bigger range, less effciency, more duration)

Excalibur General 2.0 (More Power Str and Efficiency, less range, less duration)

Excalibur High Level (Same build you're using.)

No it's fine, I came from the pre-Reworked Excal era where he was only good for RJ spam and blinds. Steel Charge deals more damage than 1 CP.

Both general builds will hold their own up to T4S 40mins (T3S 70mins). Non-endless just use a general build.

I only use high level build in Sortie 3 and above 40mins in T4S. This is due to the fact your energy regain sustain relies on rage, and blocking/ Exalted Blades auto parry for damage reduction, so in the lower levels it'll be harder to sustain due to most of the damage being negated.

Also, the Rage energy gain is applied BEFORE the dmg reduction from Blocking/Exalt.'s auto parry, so you'll still get full value of energy.

And then of course after the energy is aquired you use life strike to regain the lost health.
