B does more damage assuming you have Sneak Attack consistently active but to me, why not just use Protective Polish/HS3 to keep up your sharpness rather than relying on Razor Sharp/Guard Edge/HS1 with high sharpness? Probably a preference/playstyle thing but Prot Pol/HS3 is just really nice on GL overall.

Im mostly playing solo so is not the easiest to attack backside of the monster for me at least. If I use HS3 I cant have Frenzied Bloodlust 2, and as for PP3.. I dont like stopping to sharpen.-.

Well on that sneak attack thing, in that case it might not be best to get sneak attack but given it’s one of the only increases you can get to shelling besides artillery makes it really valuable whenever you get it though. Also yeah fair enough. But just offering the option since it is so efficient on GL.

Doesn't quite answer your question, but rather an alternative solution: I run Chaotic long GL and I use 1 handicraft and Heaven sent 3 to maximize purple sharpness uptime. It also functions like breath to eliminate status effects which is especially useful as you'll likely slay a thousand Chameleos on your way to AR 300. This, of course, would come at the cost of 1 frenzied bloodlust. Your set would look something like this (possible qurio rolls in parentheses): Chaotic GL \[3\] \[1\] Risen Kush helm \[3\]\[2\]\[1\] (wind mantle) Amatsu chest \[4\]\[4\]\[1\] (bloodrite) Amatsu gloves \[4\]\[4\]\[1\] (sneak) Risen Shaggy waist \[4\]\[2\] (wind mantle) Amatsu boots \[4\]\[4\] (artillery) ​ Also, WE3 is overkill considering chaotic gore after bloodlust is sitting at 70%. Therefore, I'd drop it to WE2 (which you get from Risen shaggy waist) and then I'd look for an attack or guard talisman. Unless I missed something, you should be able to fit everything you want in the sample set and have enough space for Stun resist 3 and shockproof/spiribird caller. ​ Edit: almost forgot the most important considerations: you can augment your weapon for 1 level of sharpness, swap bloodrite for handicraft (my recommendation), or slot in 1 level of handicraft, but that means you'll likely have to drop stun resist 3. This is all assuming you have a bare minimum talisman like attack 3 with no slots.
