Seasonal Edge effects
- After using a Dual-Weapon Skill, you gain one of four random attack buffs for 8 seconds: increased Critical Rate, Affinity Rate, Physical Damage, or All Attribute Attack.
- Each activation applies random buffs. Higher tiers increase the duration (up to 12 seconds), add a chance to gain multiple buffs at once, and reduce the cooldown.
- The game triggers this on dual-wield skills only, so pair with weapons like Sword Horizon or Blossom Barrage for frequent procs in sustained fights.

Best builds for Seasonal Edge Inner Way
Seasonal Edge excels in dual-wield setups that trigger frequent buffs via Dual-Weapon Skills, amplifying crit, affinity, physical, or attribute damage for versatile boss shredding.
Sword Horizon core (Doombound Sword)
Equip Doombound Sword for its pierce-heavy Dual-Weapon Skills that proc random buffs reliably. Lights and specials chain into sustained rotations, with tier bonuses like multi-procs turning it into a crit/attack monster.
