Best Gley Build in The First Descendant: Skills, Weapons, Reactor, and Modules

Gley is a very effective character against enemies in The First Descendant, especially bosses. After hours of testing to get the best results, we recommend using our best build, which includes the ideal weapon, skills, reactor, and modules to use.

Like Jayber, Gley is also a utility dealer with an attribute-free playstyle, meaning she must rely on her skills to move through enemies.

First things first: Gley is not ideal for beginners. She can be a bit intimidating because one of her abilities, when activated, greatly increases the damage dealt, but at the same time reduces her health regeneration, unlike other Descendants.

That said, our Gley build guide has everything you need to know to make her a force to be reckoned with in The First Descendant.

Best Active Skill

Of all Gley's active skills, these two can never go wrong:

  • When Gley has his Frantic While the status is active, her ATK and gun penetration will increase, but it will reduce her HP recovery. This means she will be vulnerable to attacks, especially during boss fights, but this can be countered with an Ajax in the party. Ajax's Orbital Barrier will stop and deflect all attacks from enemies.
  • The second best active skill is Sensory augmentation. She reacts differently in frenzied and non-frenzied states. When frenzied, maximum lethality is applied and bullets are not consumed. During this time, her running, sprinting, and movement speed increases by 50%.

Conversely, using the skill while in its non-frenzy state applies maximum recovery during which its health sphere generation increases. This means that its health recovery amount increases by 8% of max HP and lasts for 10 seconds.

Here are the five skills available to Gley in The First Descendant:

  • Thirst (Passive): Reduces damage taken. Defeated enemies have a chance to drop Life Spheres which grant Life Power on contact and help recover HP.
  • Frantic:Increased ATK and penetration of firearms, but at the cost of reduced HP recovery.
  • Siphon of life: Deals damage to the target in range and recovers HP. The amount of recovery increases based on the number of enemies hit. In a frenzy state, it deals increased damage proportional to HP, while in a non-frenzy state, it gains stamina.
  • Sensory augmentation: Maximizes lethality during the frenzied state while applying maximum recovery in the non-frenzied state.
  • Massacre: He equips a unique weapon whose number of loaded bullets is affected by the amount of life force possessed. In frenzy, he increases DMG proportionally to HP while in non-frenzy, he inflicts a stun on enemies hit.

Best weapon to use with Gley in The First Descendant

No matter if your playstyle is aggressive or passive, the Thunder Cage Submachine Gun is the best weapon for Gley.

The weapon's strong point is that it emits an electric shockwave, which deals additional damage to nearby enemies. Being an SMG, it has a high rate of fire, which complements Gley's frenzy state.

Take a look at Thunder Cage's stats in detail:

  • ATK Firearm:24 (increases as you upgrade)
  • Rate of fire: 666
  • Cooldown Modifier: -20%
  • Damage Range: 3 m
  • Overload:When you defeat an enemy, they have a set chance to discharge an electric shockwave that deals additional damage to nearby enemies.

Best Reactors for Gley

The best reactors for Gley are those that focus on Power Skill And Secondary Attack PowerThis would greatly increase his damage, which would prove crucial during boss fights and Void missions.

Gley can be quite aggressive due to her Frenzy ability, so you should find reactors that boost her DMG and make her frenzied state more deadly.

Best External Components for Gley

The best external components for building Gley in The First Descendant are those with the following stats:

These components are RNG based, which means you won't always find ones that have all the stats mentioned above. However, keep looking because you never know when you'll stumble upon the perfect external components.

You don't need to equip components with the Max Shield stat, because she doesn't have one, so it will be useless.

This concludes our best Gley build in The First Descendant. Be sure to check out our other build guides for Bunny and Freyna for detailed information on these descendants.
