This set sacrifices the additional signature energy generation provided by Cottie to prioritize higher single-cycle damage output by using Frederick as the secondary memory set after Frederick's revamp in the Everglowing Justice patch.
Recommended at SSS-Rank and above, as SSS-Rank allows Crimson Weave's Signature Move to output enough damage to justify skipping use of Unquenchable Flare when unnecessary to clear.
After Heisen's revamp in the Polaris Bond, a similar set utilizing Heisen instead of Frederick should be utilized instead for higher damage output.

How to play
Crimson Weave - Fundamentals
Switch between holding the Kodachi and Odachi during battle:
Starts the fight with the Kodachi in hand
When wielding the Kodachi:
Can only use and generate Blue Orbs, Red and Yellow Orbs become transparent and unusable
Build energy quickly to enter the more powerful Odachi stance as soon as possible
When wielding the Odachi:
Obtain Aphotic Points by using Orbs, Sword Waves and the hold dodge attack
Hold Basic Attack while the counter is red to perform an extremely powerful plunging attack, which consumes all Aphotic Points to deal increased damage
Using Signature Move while wielding the Odachi will return to the Kodachi stance
Press Basic Attack when the blade flashes to start launching Sword Waves:
The blade will flash while dodging, or after the 4th step of the Basic Attack combo if the 5th step is not performed
Pressing Basic Attack repeatedly after the sword flashed will launch consecutive Sword Waves for up to 2.5 seconds
Hold the dodge button to start charging the Sword Gauge:
Pinging Orbs also charges the Sword Gauge
Deflect up to 3 incoming attacks while charging
Releasing the dodge button will perform an attack depending on the level of charge of the Sword Gauge
A fully charged hold dodge attack will turn the Aphotic Points counter red, unlocking the Odachi's plunge attack
Crimson Weave - Additional Information
Signature Move details:
Both Signature Move activations trigger Time Lag Calculation
Entering Odachi stance converts all Blue Orbs into Red and Yellow Orbs
Both Sword Gauge and Aphotic Points are conserved when using both versions of Signature Move
Core Passive details:
Sword Waves will generate energy and Aphotic Points every 0.5 seconds, but will also generate Orbs since they count as Basic Attacks
Releasing dodge with full Sword Gauge after holding will grant invincibility and generate a large amount of Signature Energy, as well as activate all QTEs at S5 Rank or above
Using Basic Attack after a Red or Yellow 3-Ping will perform a special follow-up attack
Advanced techniques:
Sword Waves and the Odachi's plunge attack count as Basic Attacks and will generate orbs
Canceling Blue and Yellow Orbs with dodges or Signature Moves usually results in faster access to more damaging moves, increasing overall damage output
A single fully charged hold dodge attack will generate enough energy to use Signature Move in Kodachi stance
Since Sword Gauge and Aphotic Points carry over between stances, it's recommended for longer fights to use a 3-Ping in Odachi stance before using Signature Move if the Sword Gauge is empty to allow faster access to a fully charged hold dodge attack
Pinging a set of orbs and then near-instantaneously triggering Signature Move will carry the Energy gained from that orb set into the next form
