In this MMO game based on the Douluo IP, there are many martial souls that players can obtain and cultivate. They can also gain the appearance of the corresponding holders through mimicry. So which martial souls are powerful and worth cultivating? Here, we will introduce the recommended martial souls in the world of Douluo Continent Soul Hunt. In the game, they can be divided into four different categories, each with a distinct role. Naturally, we need to pay attention to these distinctions when making our choices. The subsequent martial soul combinations are also based on this.
Power Attack Martial Souls
The primary damage dealers, all possess extremely high burst capabilities. The Evil Fire Phoenix is known for its wide-range burning skills, not only capable of flight but also with broad skill ranges and strong DOT (damage over time) effects, making it an excellent choice for clearing mobs and maps; the Sky Hammer excels in single-target heavy strikes, with its ultimate ability able to clear soul power and deliver a fatal blow, along with control attributes like knockback and knockup, making it highly valuable in PvP and Boss battles; the Nine Star Seven Kill Sword is a versatile and explosive damage dealer, with its sword array skill being extremely powerful in group fights. If paired with T0.5 martial souls like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon or the Qilin Tongtian Chrysanthemum, it can compensate for the cooldown shortcomings of burst martial souls, ensuring continuous firepower.
Agility Attack Martial Souls
Known for their flexibility and high-frequency output, the recommended ones are the Fire Dragon and Moon Blade. The Fire Dragon has a wide attack range and is difficult to miss, and can trigger a "Flame Burst" chain mechanism, making it very suitable for forming a burning team; the Moon Blade combines speed and damage, making it excellent for chasing and finishing off enemies. Additionally, the Soft Bone Rabbit has a strong performance in single-target bursts and, when paired with the Sky Hammer, can activate a critical hit bond, making it a very promising member of the current agility attack category.
Control Martial Souls
Characterized by quick actions, high mobility, and high-frequency combos. The Fire Dragon is the ace among agility attackers, not only with a large skill range and strong impact, but its Flame Burst mechanism can instantly settle the burning layers on enemies and add a new layer, making it a core member of the burning team. The Moon Blade is also ranked T0, not only with a high hit rate but also able to quickly approach enemies, with smooth combo connections. The Soft Bone Rabbit leans more towards single-target burst, relying on stacking "Rabbit Escape" layers for output, especially impressive against high-health Bosses. When paired with the Sky Hammer, it can activate exclusive bonds, significantly increasing critical hit damage and further enhancing kill efficiency.
Support Martial Souls
Key to ensuring the survival and pace of the team, the Nine Treasure Pagoda is currently the strongest support, with a unique mechanism to reduce soul power consumption, allowing main damage dealers to release skills more frequently. It can also apply shields, invincibility, and various buffs, making it essential for advancing in dungeons and tackling high-difficulty activities. The Phantom takes an alternative support route, converting output into healing through soul skills, serving as the best backup for offensive teams. Additionally, although supports like Sausage and Heavenly White Jade Tripod are slightly weaker, they still have significant tactical value in certain situations.
Martial Soul Combinations:
The current mainstream recommendation is to use a basic framework of "2 Damage Dealers + 1 Controller + 1 Support." For example, using the Evil Fire Phoenix + Fire Dragon as the dual-core burning output, paired with the Fire Shadow to restrict enemy movement, and the Nine Treasure Pagoda for energy support and shield protection, can create a combination of sustained burning and strong pressure. If you prefer Boss battles, you can choose the Sky Hammer + Soft Bone Rabbit to build a single-target burst flow, combined with the Emerald Snake Empress for continuous poisoning and the Phantom for healing, providing higher fault tolerance and sustainability for the team.
If you tend to focus on dungeon clearing, it is recommended to form a team centered around martial souls with strong area damage, high sustained output, and low skill error rates, such as the Evil Fire Phoenix, Nine Star Seven Kill Sword, Sky Hammer, Fire Dragon, and Moon Blade. Then, pair them with one controller (such as the Fire Shadow) and one support (such as the Nine Treasure Pagoda).
This concludes the introduction to the recommended martial souls in the world of Douluo Continent Soul Hunt. The martial soul system is designed to balance and diversity, with orange-quality martial souls of the same type having little difference. The key lies in the compatibility of skills and practical combinations. Although purple martial souls are slightly weaker, they are easy to obtain and quick to cultivate, and can still play a good role in the early stages. As the version progresses and more tactical combinations emerge, there will be more martial souls and richer combination strategies.
