Characters & Builds

In Sword of the Sea, your primary 'character' is the Waverider itself, a sentient board imbued with ancient power. While you don't choose a traditional class, the game offers a deep customization system through Relic Abilities, Waverider Upgrades, and cosmetic choices that subtly influence your playstyle. This section will delve into optimizing your Waverider for different challenges, exploring various 'builds' based on your preferred combat and traversal methods. Understanding how to synergize your Relic Abilities and upgrades is crucial for tackling the game's more difficult encounters and achieving mastery over the Shifting Sands.
