Best Offense Build in Stellar Blade
Eve needs to have the best offensive abilities. Let's check out what she should not miss.
Stellar Blade is mostly about taking down enemies and solving puzzles to progress through the main story. Therefore, players should take care of creating a strong build for Eve from the beginning of the game. However, this process takes some time as abilities unlock gradually as players progress through the story and complete quests. So, we recommend experimenting with Eve’s offensive abilities to build the best offense for the character.
Now one vital question is: what should be included in the offensive build of Eve? In this case, we suggest focusing on the best Exospines to deal damage, Burst, or Beta skills, and finally, throwables. In this guide, we will focus on all these abilities of Eve to make her stronger for the latter part of the game.
The Best Attack-Based Exospines for Eve
If you have started your Stellar Blade journey, you must have learned the concept of Exospine. These are abilities to equip and provide Eve with boosts, like increased attack power, etc. So, these are some of the most important parts of Eve’s build if you are willing to boost her offense. The best Exospines that we suggest for Eve are:
- Beta Trance-Type Exospine
- Burst Trance-Type Exospine
- Chain-Type Exospine
- Impact-Type Exospine
These are all offensive Exospines to give Eve an increased offense rate. For example, Beta Trance-Type Exospine is one of the compulsory Exospines to equip if you are in the latter stages of the game and going to fight a challenging boss. This Exospine increases how much beta energy Eve recharges and strengthens beta attack damage to a great extent. However, the best thing this Exospine does is send enemies into a trance and allow Eve to land critical attacks without any resistance.
Burst Trance-Type Exospine is the next to be discussed on the list. Burst abilities are one of the strongest abilities to deal with the most challenging enemies. However, the burst meter takes a long time to recharge. So, Burst Trance-Type Exospine reduces the timer for charging burst energy with level 4 combo attacks. Therefore, the strongest enemies of the game can easily be taken down using this Exospine.
Going to the next one, we have Chain-Type Exospine. The previous two Exospines were for massive damage, but if you are looking for a more consistent way to deal damage, Chain-Type Exospine should be on your list. Among its effects, the most attractive is that it increases the damage of most combo attacks by 27%. Additionally, it also increases the possibility of landing critical hits with level 4 combo attacks.

Impact-Type Exospine is the final one on the list. While this Exospine increases the critical attack rate by 9.5%, combining it with Chain-Type Exospine makes it deadly. Once you have combined these two Exospines, it not only unleashes Unstable Energy to deal critical damage to the nearby enemies, but it also deals chained damage to all nearby enemies. So, it is better to combine these two Exospines to get the best outcome.
Best Beta and Burst Attacks in Stellar Blade
Fighting enemies in Stellar Blade is almost impossible without the Burst and Beta attacks. These abilities are especially required for the latter sections of the game, when the toughest enemies of the game block Eve’s path. However, these skills are not free to obtain and upgrade. Therefore, considering your SP Point spending, we suggest you use the best Beta and Burst attacks for Eve.
- Triplet
- Shield Breaker
- Tempest
- Descending Break
Let’s discuss these Burst and Beta attacks individually to make things easier to understand. Triplet is a Beta attack in which Eve jumps forward to launch a substantially high-damage attack. This attack is best to drain a chunk of health from the hardest enemy. Next, we have another Beta attack on the list named Shield Breaker. As the name suggests, this attack is specifically launched to deal with heavily shielded enemies. Eve can use this ability to make enemies vulnerable by breaking their shields faster.

Eve can combine these two abilities and deal the maximum damage possible to an enemy. However, this sounds easy, but doing it requires a lot of practice. So, first, players need to master this combination.
The next two abilities on the list are Burst abilities. It’s an established fact that Burst attacks deal the most damage. So, these abilities should not be ignored when going for a challenging fight. While Tempest is the largest and deadliest AOE attack to control enemy hordes during a fight, Descending Break is best to drain the health of the boss with a massive attack.
The Best Throwables to Choose for Eve
Throwables are an integral part of any fight, especially when players decide to play offensively. Throwables are not only required for crowd control during tricky situations, but they sometimes work like magic to make bosses vulnerable. So, for the fights, Eve should bring the following throwables with her:
- Shock Grenades
- Pulse Grenades
These two grenades are best for making Eve stronger in the game. Shock Grenades are mostly used to stun nearby enemies. When Eve throws a Shock Grenade, it emits shockwaves that stun enemies for a few seconds to help the player take control of the situation back or find a cover to hide. However, they don’t do anything more. You can’t expect it to take down a boss.
Pulse Grenades, on the other hand, are used to damage the shield of an enemy. When Eve throws a Pulse Grenade at an enemy, it unleashes an electromagnetic pulse to disable Naytibas‘ defense capabilities and make it vulnerable for a few seconds. Players can take this chance to land some critical hits. However, there’s nothing more this little lethal weapon can do.
That’s more or less everything players need to know about the best offensive build for Eve in Stellar Blade. These abilities and Exospines will unlock as Eve completes missions and progresses through the story.
