So basically I spared benweth, told aeldys about yser and lucia in deadlight, then never visited her again, did the yseyr furrante, did the principi slaver quest with furrante and simultaneously with the vailians, did the vailian trial, then went over to furrante and attacked him in the first dialogue. Aeldys was already tied up when I did this. Went up and freed her non violently by saying you're welcome. And then when she comes down you can repeat the interaction again and again for scordeos edges and blackblade hoods.

Any build suggestions ?

Two Scordeo's Edges means 2*Adaptive (2*+20 accuracy). Since it's from two individual weapons it should stack.
Maybe Ranger/Monk with even more accuracy bonuses, using Swift Flurry and Heartbeat Drumming. Stunning Surge should also be nice: bery high chance to crit, giving you a Mortification refund often.
The more you proc Swift Flurry/HBD the more likely to trigger Blade Cascade and so on.

 

  

The only way you can keep up those stacks is if you are cheesing brilliant. Otherwise you will never hit +40 accuracy. But the blade cascade is still nice dual wielded I suppose. A full attack should have 1-(0.95^0.95) a 10% chance of triggering it. And the additional speed is nice to get more adaptive. And you to have to switch weapon sets if you want the other weapons adaptive to work. So my second set has them switched around.

+10 INT will prolong the duration of Adaptive - and every proc of Swift Flurry and Heartbeat Drumming will add a stack, too. Blade Cascade will also help to collect 20 stacks quickly.  

You are right that you have to switch weapon sets for +40 acc - I thought with two Edge's that wouldn't be necessary, buit it is. But as you said I could put a weapon copy into the second weapon set and it works (as you did): I could stack 2*10 Adaptive for +40 ACC.

It then is very easy to reach 40 acc (with plenty of duration). The only problem I can see is that the enemies are all dead before you can reach +40 acc.  

See below behind the spoiler tags the short animated gif I made from a test encounter (it's 66MB, so it may load for a while):

Of course: Wall of Draining on a Bloodmage/Monk would make it all a lot easier. Prolong Blade Cascade, prolong Adaptive stacks endlessly, prolong Swift Flurry and so on. But I find that pretty boring, same as using Salvation of Time.
 

Well it seems the off hand is not applying adaptive anymore. Why ?

That is the regular behavior : when 2 same weapons are equipped (in the same set) and when both have a same enchantment only the first weapon trigger the enchantment. So you cant get +4 fire PL with 2 Sun and Moon ; but you can have Adaptive and Strategic Shot with an unique set.

Yeah but I managed to get double adaptives somehow before by moving weapons around. Now I can't anymore. Don't know how I did it.

My guess: you switched to your second weapons set where you had the two sabres copied in reverse. 

No I am saying I managed to get double adaptives on the same weapon set. So I could reach 10x on the same set, with both weapons and then switch again for another 10. I managed to trigger adapative from both weapons on the same set.
