Viable choices for the optional slot:

• Photon Wall - another block to use.

• Elixir C - if you're struggling against conditions a lot then this could solve your problem.

Weapons

• Sword - focuses more on the strike damage aspect of the build. Better burst damage, worse sustain and range. Also adds an extra leap finisher.
