Role framing first
Decide whether Hiyuki is your main on-field investment, quick-swap slot, or flexible utility piece before you lock a build route.

Cheap decisions first
Lock the weapon and upgrade-order decisions that stay useful even if live testing later shifts the ideal final setup in Version 3.3 Phase 1.
What not to rush
Do not over-invest in niche stat tuning until official details and actual in-game usage confirm the most efficient build direction, especially if you may pivot into Version 3.3 Phase 2.
Build decisions to lock early
Lock the role, a fallback weapon route, and a practical first upgrade order. If the tracked weapon set is Frostburn, Starfield Calibrator, Moongazer's Sigil, this page should help you decide whether that path is realistic for your account before you commit.
Build decisions to leave flexible
Final stat tuning, niche set choices, and premium-only assumptions should stay flexible until live play confirms how Hiyuki actually feels. This is where many users decide to save for Version 3.3 Phase 2 instead.

FAQ
What should you lock first on a Hiyuki build page?

Why should a Hiyuki build page stay connected to banner pages?
Because users usually move from pull intent into build planning, not into a disconnected guide tree.
