Backstory
Once a warband warrior feared across the stars, Kaul of Bel-Lamori was a name spoken in dread—a Kesak Sky Pirate with a trail of legendary pillages behind her. When the Rift Crisis struck, her fate became shrouded in rumor. Some claimed she slaughtered her own allies and vanished, while others whispered that she died in the chaos of a world consumed by rupture.
But the truth was stranger still. Kaul survived. Against all odds, she made it to Earth. Her arrival, of course, was not without incident—she clashed violently with the Bureau of Rift Management. Yet through fire, force, and sheer stubborn will, she was ultimately brought into the fold.
Now serving as one of the Human God's Vanguards, Kaul holds onto a simple, almost innocent dream: to save what remains of her world... and one day, return to the glory days of raiding—this time, perhaps with the Human God at her side.

4 PC: When hitting weakness of the target, increases Slash, Pierce, and Crush Boost by 40% each for that attack.
4PC: Using a Combat Skill, gain 8% Slash DMG and 60 All DEF for 2R. If your Crit Chance 25% or lower, gain additional 12% Slash DMG and 90 All DEF.

Kaul is the newest 4-cost DPS, and she’s basically a melee version of Yeonwoo. The main difference is that Kaul can heal herself and doesn’t receive external healing during her DPS rotation. She may sound complicated at first, but she’s actually very straightforward and easy to play.
Kaul is a high-risk, high-reward character. Her kit revolves around her Maochistic Frenzy skill, which reduces her healing and block rate by 100% but increases her Melee Attack by 55%. This doesn’t even include the other Melee Attack buffs she gets from her passives and traits. Once she activates this skill, her basic attack Grab Stab transforms into Slaughter of the Weak, and her ultimate skill becomes Irresistible Urge — the core of her DPS rotation.
Her enhanced basic attack, Slaughter of the Weak, gains a small AoE cone (75 degrees, 3m range) and deals heavy damage to enemies — but it costs 20% of her HP plus her shield value per hit. You can use it up to five times before dropping to 1% HP.
That might sound risky, but her enhanced ultimate, Irresistible Urge, fixes that by restoring her HP back to 100% and removing the Seeker of Pleasure effect. Before exiting that state, she gains 100% Crit Rate and 1.75% Crit Damage for every 1% of HP lost — meaning if you use five enhanced attacks, that’s a free +175% Crit Damage boost! Her ultimate also deals 300% Melee ATK as Slash DMG and 160% as Splash DMG, while ignoring counterattacks.
Her rotation is simple: use Maochistic Frenzy, spam your enhanced basic attacks (ideally five times), then use her enhanced ultimate to heal back to full HP and nuke everything.
You’ll want an AP support to help her quickly reach her ult again for smoother rotations or you might need to use her ult after 2-3 Attacks.
Her traits give her a +20% Melee ATK increase for every point of Vitality above 13 — reaching up to +260% Melee ATK at EX6, which is crazy motion value buff. She also gains +50 All DEF when enemies are within 6m (up to 4 stacks) and converts that DEF into Melee Attack. Additionally, her passive converts Speed into DEF, which further amplifies her attack scaling.
| EX Level | Base VIT | Kesak Trait (+7 VIT Buff) | Excess VIT | Melee ATK Bonus |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EX0 | 15 | 22 | 9 | +180% |
| EX1 | 16 | 23 | 10 | +200% |
| EX2 | 17 | 24 | 11 | +220% |
| EX3 | 18 | 25 | 12 | +240% |
| EX6 | 19 | 26 | 13 | +260% |
Best Stigmata Sets:
Kaul can use two different Stigmata sets depending on your build and the teammates you pair her with.
1. Jupiter Set (BIS) (Best when paired with Korabi) — Since Korabi gives Kaul +72% Crit Rate, extra Speed, Max HP, and Crit Damage, Kaul doesn’t need to build any Crit Rate herself. Jupiter becomes her best-in-slot because it doesn’t factor in Crit Rate buffs and lets her fully utilize its effects:
2-Piece: Increases Elemental Boost by 6% during combat.
4-Piece: Using a Combat Skill grants 8% Slash DMG and 60 All DEF for 2 rounds. If Crit Rate ≤ 25%, gain an additional 12% Slash DMG and 90 All DEF.
Recommended Substat Priority (With Korabi): Crit Damage > Melee Attack > Speed > Anything else.
2. The Thousand Mile Weaver — If you’re not pairing her with Korabi, you’ll need to build Crit Rate manually, making this set the better option.
2-Piece: Increases Melee Attack power by 10% during combat.
4-Piece: When hitting an enemy’s weakness, increases Slash, Pierce, and Crush Boost by 40% for that attack.
Recommended Substat Priority (Without Korabi): Crit Rate > Crit Damage > Melee Attack > Anything else.
SS Jupiter and Thorny Heart are solid budget alternatives.
