Actually Spharai is VERY good for omen solo farming. Probably one of the few areas that it shines. I used to have a lot of fun pulling multiple monsters and face fronting in a full counter set, especially the mandys. Havinga lot of HP on monk, you don’t have to worry about dying often, so you can afford to multiple pull and counter them all at once. It was nice killing one mob and by the time I get to the second, third etc, it’s already 60% due to all the counter damage enhancements.
Being solo and likely devoid of any real buffs, spharai is a pretty good spread on stats: attack, ka, counter are all useful. Probably get some use out of subtle blow also, you will cap it with the standard tp set with relic legs. You’ll still be able to use TK footwork for 30k. I managed to solo all of my monk cards this way a few years back. Very good weapon for it and you’ll get mileage if you’re doing this event. I would make the feet first. Spharai syncs very well with a high kicking set; don’t even need footwork to nearly cap it if you have an augmented neck.
(Obviously he’s doing it on monk for the cards, cuz campaign. Everyone knows thf gets better swart drops, but aloha, monk thread)
