Jo Kyuhwan Best Builds
In this section, you'll find two recommended builds for Jo Kyuhwan.
The first build shows you the best possible Weapons and Artifacts for Jo Kyuhwan, while the second offers some great alternatives that are fantastic for beginner players or those who cannot fully replicate his best build.
Attack Build
Jo Kyuhwan is a Light-element Mage whose damage output scales from his Attack stat. When gearing him up, his stat priorities should be Attack > MP > Defense Penetration.
Best Weapon
| Weapon | Effects |
Sweet Life | Increases the user's Attack by 2%*. If the user's MP is 50% or above, it increases Core Attack, Basic Skill, and QTE Skill damage by 10%*. |
Jo Kyuhwan's best Weapon is Sweet Life, which increases his scaling stat (ATK) and improves his utility as an attacker by giving his team additional DoTs (Damage-Over-Time) damage.
NOTE: SSR Weapons (i.e. Exclusive Weapons) for SR Hunters like Jo Kyuhwan are currently unavailable in Solo Leveling: Arise, as you cannot get them from any source yet. Consider using Jo Kyuhwan's Alternative Weapon that's mentioned further below until you're able to get his Exclusive Weapon!
Best Artifacts
| Artifacts | Effects |
(4) Destroyer | Equip 2 Pieces: Increases Power Gauge Acquisition Rate by 20%. Equip 4 Pieces: When the battle starts, charge the user's Power Gauge by 50% and also increase the user and their team members' Power Gauge Acquisition Rate by an additional 20%. |
(4) Outstanding Connection | Equip 2 Pieces: When tagging out, increase the Attack of you and your team members by 12% for 10 seconds. (Cooldown: 20 seconds). Equip 4 Pieces: Increases Attack effect to 28% and duration to 15 seconds. |
Thanks to Jo Kyuhwan Burn effect, which scales from his ATK, he is an ideal DoT (Damage over time) Team member. Equipping him with Destroyer increases his power gauge acquisition, granting him a quick build-up to his Ultimate, which inflicts a Burn damage effect based on his ATK.
Additionally, Outstanding Connection would be a good accessory set as it increases the user and his team members' ATK once he tags out from the field. Boosting their DMG output further.
Alternative Build
For those who can't get their hands on the exclusive weapon and the artifacts mentioned above, here are some alternative options that are easier to get.
Alternative Weapon
| Weapon | Effects |
 Steel Bow | The user's Critical Hit Damage increases by 9%*. |
The next best weapon for Jo Kyuhwan would be a Steel Bow (SR), which allows him to hit harder once CRIT lands. Consider using a Bow (R) or Steel Dagger (SR or R) if a Steel Bow is unavailable. The weapon effect is less efficient than Jo Kyuhwan's signature weapon, but it still provides a decent ATK base stat.
Alternative Artifacts
| Artifacts | Effects |
 (4) Solid Foundation | Equip 2 Pieces: Increases the user's Attack by 5%. Equip 4 Pieces: When attacking, the user ignores 15% of the target's Defense. |
(4) Outstanding Connection | Equip 2 Pieces: When tagging out, increase the Attack of you and your team members by 12% for 10 seconds (Cooldown: 20 seconds). Equip 4 Pieces: Increases Attack Increase effect to 28% and duration to 15 seconds. |
With Jo Kyuhwan scales from ATK, the Armed set is a good alternative for Destroyer. It increases his Attack and ignores the target's defense at a 4-piece set. Solid Foundation is a decent option if Armed is unavailable as it increases Jo Kyuhwan's Basic and Core Attack, which is ideal if your Jo Kyuhwan frequently tags in the field.
