Upgrading SSR Ban to Potential 10 (P10) in Seven Deadly Sins: Origin is worth the heavy investment if you focus on competitive endgame content like Knighthood Bosses or TimeSpace Junction. While Potential 9 (P9) provides solid baseline damage, P10 changes the mechanics of Ban's Nunchaku build, converting him from a burst unit with downtime into a continuous skill-cycling damage dealer.

If your account is still building basic roster depth, pause at P9 and reallocate resources to other units before committing to this final milestone.

What Changes at Potential 10

The core upgrade at P10 hinges on landing Ban's Ultimate while at maximum Chain stacks. Triggering his Ultimate under this specific condition unlocks several simultaneous combat buffs:

  • Special Attack Reset: Immediately clears the cooldown of your Special Attack.
  • Cooldown Reduction: Cuts your Special Attack cooldown by 80% for 10 seconds.
  • Extra Hits: Grants 3 additional hit counts to your attacks.
  • Defense Shatter: Applies a 15% Defense Shatter effect, raising total damage output against armored targets.

At P9, Ban experiences noticeable performance lulls while waiting for his primary skills to refresh. P10 eliminates these cooldown bottlenecks during key damage windows.

Executing the P10 Nunchaku Rotation

To take advantage of the P10 milestone in boss fights or TimeSpace Junction sectors, follow this rotational sequence:

  1. Build Stacks: Execute basic attack chains until you reach maximum Chain stacks.
  2. Trigger the Ultimate: Cast your Ultimate only after confirming max Chain stacks to activate the Special Attack reset.
  3. Maximize the 10-Second Window: Cast your refreshed Special Attack immediately, then repeatedly use it throughout the 10-second duration while the 80% cooldown reduction is active.

This rotation is particularly effective against Knighthood Bosses during downed states, where the 15% Defense Shatter and increased hit counts allow you to maximize score output before the boss recovers. In TimeSpace Junction, the quick skill refreshes allow Ban to break enemy shields and clear waves rapidly without stalling.

Next Steps for Account Progression

Evaluate your current account priorities before unlocking P10:

  • Endgame Push: If your primary goal is speedrunning TimeSpace Junction or maximizing Knighthood Boss leaderboard ranks, invest in P10 to achieve Ban's maximum DPS ceiling.
  • General Roster Development: If you still require core elemental coverage or multi-team depth for general content, leave Ban at P9 and spend your resources upgrading secondary damage dealers or support units first.
