The first new class since the release of Diablo 4 DLC, Spiritborn, has become a favorite among players because of its diverse synergies and play styles. Almost all Spiritborn builds perform well at high Torment levels. During the leveling process, it is recommended that players try to create their own Spiritborn builds to better understand this class.

When you reach the endgame and can collect the equipment required to make these builds work, then try to switch to one of these top Spiritborn builds. This guide ranks these top Spiritborn builds from least to most efficient for players to choose based on their personal preferences.

5. Jaguar Thorns

Jaguar Thorns build relies heavily on generating Thorns damage, increasing the character’s survivability, continuously applying Vulnerable, and constantly generating Unstoppable effects. This build requires Razorplate to work best and can be used in both leveling builds and endgame builds.

While this build may not perform as well as other Spiritborn builds at high Torment levels, it can still handle high Torment content, just at a slower rate. Despite being at the bottom of the list of best Spiritborn builds, this build is still superior to many other top class builds.

4. Payback

Payback build combines Gorilla and Jaguar Spirit Hall abilities, and when fully equipped with gear pieces from Diablo 4 Gold, this build will have a high APM and deal consistent, high damage.

Payback build utilizes Rod of Kepeleke to trigger Thrash’s 3rd attack and empower Rake, while using Gorilla abilities to create crowd control. The eponymous Potency Skill is the heart of this build, allowing the player to retaliate for a large amount of damage during a cooldown that decreases the more enemies are hit.

Before attempting this build, make sure you have Jaguar/Jaguar Spirit Hall, Loyalty’s Mantle Unique Helm, and Rod of Kepeleke. With this build, you can charge into enemies fearlessly, keeping yourself safe by rotating and destroying everything in your path during the skill cooldown.

3. Touch Of Death

Touch of Death is one of the most popular Spiritborn builds in Diablo 4. This build relies heavily on Touch of Death skill to deal a large amount of continuous Poison damage and a burst of infection effects to nearby enemies. Since this build focuses more on using Centipede abilities, it is relatively fragile. However, it completely makes up for this with Scourge’s strong healing ability, AoE damage, and skill rotation.

Touch of Death relies heavily on Craze of the Dead God and Ring of the Midday Hunt to cast Touch of Death and significantly reduce the trigger time of Poison damage. This build is difficult to upgrade, but in the endgame, it can easily compete with these high-tier content in Torment 4.

2. Eagle Evade

Spiritborn Eagle Evade build was the best version in Diablo 4 before the release of Vessel of Hatred and Season 6. But since then, this build has been favored by players for its powerful Evade and efficient output. However, it has become less powerful since a bug was fixed that allowed players to use the skill endlessly and slow down other players. But Spiritborn Eagle Evade build is still a very powerful build in Diablo 4.

By equipping Sepazontec unique Quarterstaff, your Thunderspike basic skill will always be used on the third cast, which is not only powerful, but also has an important additional function: it happens to completely reset your Evade cooldown. This means that whenever you use Thunderspike, you can immediately use the evade skill again without waiting for its cooldown to end.

Thanks to Accelerated Thunderspike node, whenever you Evade, you will automatically release Thunderspike on nearby enemies. Additionally, with Eagle Spirit Hall, you can fire Feathers at enemies while you evade, dealing tremendous damage and making them Vulnerable. Eagle Evade build is truly one of the most devastating builds in Diablo 4 after equipping the required Uniques and Aspects.

1. Quill Volley

After a recent nerf, Quill Volley build has replaced Eagle Evade build as the best Spiritborn build in Diablo 4. While it takes a lot of effort to fully utilize Quill Volley, it is definitely worth the effort, and once completed, you will be able to easily advance into Torment 4 content. As a core skill, Quill Volley can be enhanced into one of the highest sustained DPS skills in the game with the right Aspects and Uniques.

To achieve this build, you will need a few Uniques, including Rod of Kepeleke, Harmony of Ebewaka, Jacinth Shell, and Ring of the Midnight Sun. These items restore your HP and Vigor, while also counteracting the negative effects of Jacinth Shell, allowing you to quickly restore cooldowns. To get these items quickly, you can follow Diablo 4 giveaway event in IGGM discord. Just leave your favorite emoji to enter the draw.

Hold down Quill Volley button and continue to cast skills at the enemy, while pressing other buttons to increase damage and survivability. Move around with Hunter, and you’ll have the most defensive, most damaging, and overall best Diablo 4 player build currently available.

In Diablo 4’s Spiritborn class, these top builds show the class’s excellence in high Torment content. Each build has its own unique advantages and strategies. Although these builds require players to invest a lot of time and effort in collecting equipment and optimizing skills, the powerful performance and gaming experience they provide is undoubtedly worth it.

Diablo 4 Season 6 is coming with a series of updates and changes that will reshape the player experience. Through PTR experience of 2.0 major update, we already know that Vessel of Hatred will introduce important changes that affect all classes and builds.

Now that PTR is over, have you decided which class and build you should choose to experience the new Season 6 content? This guide will provide you with predictions for the best class and build based on the upcoming changes.

Class Changes

Players will gain additional skill points between levels 50 and 60 to adjust your build. The maximum level of the character is capped at level 60. After reaching level 60, players will transition to Paragon levels, further strengthening the build.

World tiers have been restructured. Players will now advance through new difficulty levels called Normal, Hard, Expert, and Penitent then unlock Torment levels. Ancestral items will drop at the beginning of the Torment level, and the introduction of new item qualities will change the way players equip in the endgame stages.

Season 6 Class Tier List

The impact of new skills, changes to Paragon system, item quality adjustments, and the introduction of Rune Words will all have an impact on class rankings in Season 6. When considering the general enhancements and the impact of the new systems being introduced on Season 6, an early preview of Season 6 class tier list is given below.

1. Spiritborn

Tier: S

Spiritborn is equipped with a range of active and passive skills, such as Concussive Stomp and Vortex. Not only do these skills introduce new strategic options that will hopefully increase their adaptability in a variety of game situations, but they also have the potential to create powerful synergies with other game mechanics. Therefore, it is well worth spending some Diablo 4 Gold to acquire equipment that can enhance Spiritborn’s damage output.

2. Necromancer

Tier: S

Some of the Necromancer’s key skills have been significantly improved. Blood Lance can now pierce through enemies and gain suppression effects after multiple casts. The newly added ultimate skill S Rift can absorb souls to deal damage and create a defensive barrier. Enhanced passive skills also further improve Necromancer’s utility and damage output.

3. Sorcerer

Tier: S

Sorcerer gains a summon skill that dynamically adjusts based on the last element used. The passive skill Enlightenment significantly increases damage output under certain conditions and optimizes elemental damage synergy. The update of Rune words expands Sorcerer’s cross-class tactical options.

4. Barbarian

Tier: A

Barbarian introduces new skills and passive skills. Barbed Carapace passive skill can improve Thorns builds, while new skills such as Pulse AOE and Mighty Throw can enhance Barbarian’s diversity and crowd control capabilities. These skills, combined with the rich Paragon board, improve Barbarian’s utility and damage.

5. Rogue

Tier: B

Rogue will gain a new skill that enhances mobility and attack power. The adjustment of passive skills focuses on enhancing elemental damage and injecting additional effects into skills. But compared with other professions, these updates are far from enough.

6. Druid

Tier: C

Druid’s Stone Burst skill will be buffed, while the One with Nature passive is designed to greatly enhance companion abilities, but Druid will still be in the lower tier unless further adjustments are made after PTR.

Builds Tier List

Our ranking of the best builds in Diablo 4 Season 6 based on the changes in PTR is as follows:

1. Lightning Spear Sorcerer

Lightning Spear Sorcerer was the best build in Season 5, and it is still a top choice in Season 6. It benefits from a conjuration mastery cap increase to 30, which enhances its already strong damage output. With the addition of splintering buff and rune word benefits, it can deal more deadly damage. The inclusion of War Cry in its arsenal further consolidates its leading position.

2. Bleed Builds

Bleed Builds may not have a particularly strong performance in Season 6. Despite this, players have always maintained a high level of enthusiasm for testing and optimizing these builds. But without major innovations in build strategies, they are not expected to reach the top level.

3. Rapid Fire Rogue

Rapid Fire Rogue impressed players with its high damage output in Season 5. Its adjustments in PTR are not expected to have an impact on its high damage. Therefore, it will still be a solid choice for players looking for a stable performance.

4. Bone Spirit Necromancer

Bone Spirit Necromancer may see a boost in survivability in Season 6. Double damage with the new update may make this build even more popular.

Each of these builds has unique advantages and disadvantages, and their ultimate survivability may change further in PTR.
