Freedom-Sworn

Freedom-Sworn is considered Kazuha’s best weapon for the Swirl Support Build due to its bonus stat of Elemental Mastery, which enhances Swirl reaction damage. Its skill effect of granting Sigils of Rebellion and activating powerful ATK and damage buffs for the team further amplifies his support capabilities, making it an excellent choice for players aiming to maximize his potential in providing support.

The Elemental Mastery bonus, combined with the stacking damage buff, allows Kazuha to excel in triggering Swirl reactions and amplifying the overall damage dealt by elemental combinations. This is especially beneficial when paired with other characters who specialize in elemental abilities, as the Swirl reaction can spread the effects to nearby enemies, causing a chain of elemental damage and reactions.
