Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred: Best Spiritborn Builds Tier List (Season 6)

The Rake Spiritborn is a powerful endgame build that allows you to deal massive AoE damage to your enemies by using different buffs, such as your Jaguar and Gorilla guardians. While this build is capable of doing the hardest content in the game, it lacks a bit of single-target damage compared to some other choices, and it's also very gear-dependent. This build is also very mobile and utilizes the thorns mechanic, allowing you to deal damage to enemies whenever they attack you. This is a great build to switch to once you have a good amount of gear and paragon levels.

Our first Centipede suggestion is the Stinger Spiritborn, which is a great build that focuses on AoE damage-over-time, while also being one of the tankiest options available. With this build, you'll move from pack to pack, applying massive poisons to your enemies with the Stinger skill, which triggers the Pestilent Swarm effect, dealing even more damage. One drawback is that it's resource-dependent, but once you reach the further endgame, you'll mitigate this issue with your items. Damage-over-time builds aren’t everyone's cup of tea, but if you enjoy this playstyle, make sure to check out the Stinger Spiritborn!

The Crushing Hand Spiritborn is a very satisfying build that unleashes two fists on each side of your character, culminating in a big hit in the middle. While this build requires more positioning than the others, the amount of damage you can do is amazing. This build has decent AoE clear and incredible single-target damage, so if you want to blow up elites or bosses, this might be the build for you. It’s very reminiscent of the Monk in Diablo 3, so if you liked that playstyle, give this a try!

The Quill Volley Spiritborn is a ranged AoE build that’s not only amazing during the leveling stages but can also transition into an endgame powerhouse. This build allows you to fire volleys of feathers, dealing substantial AoE damage, while being highly effective against single targets when used at close range. It's heavily dependent on positioning, but once you master it, you'll be able to complete all of the content in the new expansion with ease. The endgame version of this build is more gear-reliant than the leveling version, but you can still tackle high-level content even without all of the key upgrades.

Our final recommendation is the Touch of Death Spiritborn, a build that attacks an enemy, inflicts poison, and, once the enemy dies, causes a swarm to emerge and infect nearby enemies. This build is very satisfying to play, excelling in both single-target and AoE situations. The Touch of Death build is quite gear-reliant, so we don’t recommend diving into it immediately. However, if you manage to find all of the required uniques and aspects, it will decimate even the hardest content in the game. It does both great single-target and AoE damage, so once you get rolling, you’ll be unstoppable!
