DragonSword: Awakening has a host of different Karmas available for you to unlock and equip with your heroes. They change character playstyles entirely and provide them with various buffs.
Best Karmas in DragonSword: Awakening
In this guide, I have excluded Karmas that are exclusive to specific heroes. A hero-specific Karma is always going to be fantastic when you pair them up with the applicable hero. The confusion arises over general Karmas, which are more numerous, and you can use them with all characters.
| Name | Element | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| So good it’s to die for | Poison | Provides 12% additional Poison damage. Compared to the other options, you get guaranteed buffs for your attack, and this works well with any type of playstyle. |
| A Flash of Invention | Thunderbolt | Perfect choice for any shock-focused character since it raises the critical hit chance and the shock damage. |
| The Agent of Divine Punishment | Thunderbolt | Pretty similar to A Flash of Invention and a good alternative if you’re using a shock-focused team. |
| Rock-Splitting Ice | Frostbite | Raises the Critical Hit Chance by 7% and provides additional frost damage. Great addition for Frost teams. |
| Destruction is the Mother of Creation | Breaker | Gives a solid stat boost of 12% extra damage for all Break attacks. |
| I’ll knock you out myself | Amplitude | A great choice for characters like Theresia who rely on her stuns to deal damage. You’ll raise all stun-based damage by 12% at the first level. |
| Fangs lurking in the thickest | Bloodburst | If you have a Bleed-focused team, this will raise the damage by 12%. |
| The Wind Blows Again | Gale | Airborne teams prefer having Karmas that raises the air damage. With this, you get 5% increase attack power and 7% extra air damage. |
| The burning taste of fire | Blazeflame | Fire-based characters benefit from sustained damage, and this karma gives you 12% increased burn DPS. |
If you have a specific team, going for Exclusive Karmas is always going to be more beneficial. However, Exclusive Karmas are harder to unlock, which means that sometimes you might have to rely on the general ones. Ultimately, getting the best builds for your characters is always going to be immensely helpful when it comes to clearing in-game content.
