Passive tree : here
- Chose where to put the 2 last point (Depend if you need crit or mult)
How to use :
The main idea is getting as much crit chance/mult and strengh/physical increase and using flurry to deal massive damage
- The cowl of obscurity will help you by healing you a lot
- Having a solid ~900 hp, decent armor/resist (poison for temple/esturay) help to not getting one shot
- Having some mana regen and using Tranquility can help because of the 12 mana cost of flurry

| Damage/Tank Steelclaw's bite | ||
|---|---|---|
Spirit |
Bear / Lynx | |
Description |
Use the Steelclaw always crit + Harvest life to deal damage/regen hp | |
Type |

| Specific Gears | Runes to use | Stat to focus on |
|
|
|
Passive tree :
How to use :
You deal damage + regen hp with the Harvest life rune ( + some hp regen from the Cowl of obscurity )
- Having a good 1200+ hp, 50+ hp regen, decent armor/resist (poison for temple/esturay) help a lot to not die too fast from the damage you take from ennemies / Steelclaw self damage
- Having enough mana regen to be able to spam Harvest life is a must have
- As 4th rune you can use a 3rd Harvest / 2nd Charge / Tranquility / Innervation

Build 5 : Tank Bear
| Tank bear | ||
|---|---|---|
Spirit |
Bear | |
Description |
Max armor/resit high vit/hp regen tank (Still no way to keep aggro) | |
Type |
Tank | |
| Specific Gears | Runes to use | Stat to focus on |
|
|
|
Passive tree :
- here : Must have point
How to use :
This build is "useless" at the moment until we don't have real tank runes (Like aggro keep rune). But I test it and it is pretty tanking enough.
- The defensives stats must be 90%+ perfect and you need a nice pool of hp/hp regen to never be one shot
- You can also use a Cowl of Obscurity for some free heal (But you deal low damage)
- The 2 charges is used to spam charge stun monsters (Need ~20% mana regen) and help other to not being hit by them
(This build will have big rework when new rune will be added !)

Owl | |
Description |
Fast cast/Full crit heal owl | |
Type |
Healer/Support | |
| Specific Gears | Runes to use | Stat to focus on |
|
|
|
Passive tree :
How to use :
Your job is spamming your 2 consecrates where your party member are. Always try to be close your party member to also be healing (Some ennemies can still attack you)
- Ice spear/Charge can be used on Boss/Scarlet to slow their movement/stun (Be caution of the self damage of the Steelclaw)
- Use 1 or 2 aura buff for your party member (The Sash of souls help to reduce the mana reserved of your tranquility)
- You still get loot/exp if you heal a party member that damage a monster
