KR S2 data. TW has no 10★ runes or mado resistance yet, so treat this as what is coming, not as build advice.
Full Loadout (copy it as-is)
Every slot, every rune, every gem, spelled out. Pick your spend level and copy.
Cost-no-object endgame, including cash-only gems and pity legendary runes.
Other sources suggest "Ripple" (which treats number 1 as a basic attack) or Infinite/Oblivion — the names don't match. Possibly at different points in the 4-month patch history.
One of the Season 2 standard three (Fervor / Lighthouse Keeper / First Vow) — mabilife's Season 2 rune guide (2026-07-08). The armour section of namu's Knight page is empty

Free slot — HP. One of the two slots no source fixes (options from dcinside enban 991605)
Free slot — damage (options from dcinside enban 991605). Late Season 1 Korea used Overwhelming Power / Delicate Touch / Pale Flash / Fixer
The only thing that all sources agree on — effectively fixed. Increased total damage and number of hits to enhance main dealing
namu: Breakthrough + Earthquake + Courage / Breakthrough + Clash + Courage. The old value Vow is a healer rune, not a knight accessory (dcinside enban 991605 writes 'Pact')
namu's standard third accessory. Honor+ (skill 5, resets the next skill's cooldown) is a single-source variant from vortex 769410
erinn is the 1st pick for platinum scale, mabilife emblem teargle is platinum=trap rating — CONTESTED
Gem tags: what one line is actually worth
A tag is a skill category. Each tag line on a Star Prism or Triple Quartz is either a damage line or a cooldown line, and it pays out only on skills carrying that tag — so check which tags your own skills have before deciding which lines to chase.
The eight tags
Per line, by gem stage
| Gem stage | Tag lines | If damage (each) | If cooldown (each) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crude Star Prism | 1 | not published | not published |
| Crude Star Prism S | 2 | +1.7% | −0.55% |
| Star Prism (Elite) | 3 | +2.0% | −0.65% |
| Star Prism S | 3 | +2.1% | −0.70% |
| Whole Star Prism | 3 | +2.2% | −0.75% |
| Triple Quartz (Elite) | 2 | +2.1% | −0.70% |
Take damage in almost every case. The theoretical cooldown ceiling does not turn into more casts — this game's pre- and post-cast delays and the boss's own rhythm eat it. Cooldown lines are worth it only to tighten a supporter's buff cycle, or to stand in for a cooldown rune.
The numbers come from what the Korean community has documented over the past year — namu wiki's item entry, the Inven gem-tag guide, and a KR player-built gem simulator. Nexon publishes the rules but not the figures, so these are the values the Korean sources have agreed on for long enough to rely on.
There used to be two figures for the weapon Heliodor's damage bonus (namu +5%, a community simulator +3%). Nexon Taiwan's own package notice (3504945) prints “damage +5%”, matching namu, so it is settled. The green Heliodor's “1.5% damage to all skill tags” is likewise official text (3541044).
The English gem and tag names here are ours, rendered from the Korean. There is no English release of this game, so no official English names exist.

The only thing both agree on is that Smash comes first.
