Best Spiritborn builds in Diablo 4 Season 6: Tier list
Blizzard EntertainmentThe Spiritborn class has arrived in Diablo 4 as part of the Vessel of Hatred expansion. Here are the best Spiritborn builds you can craft in Season 6.
A brand new character class in Diablo 4, the Spiritborn is an evolution of the Witch Doctor class from Diablo 3. However, rather than being a voodoo practitioner, the Spiritborn is a shaman who utilizes the power of various spirit animals to battle the forces of Mephisto.
Below, our Diablo 4 Season 6 Spiritborn tier list will break down everything you need to know about the best builds to run for Spiritborn in both PvE and PvP and from early leveling to endgame.
Blizzard EntertainmentIs the Spiritborn good in Season 6?
Yes, the Spiritborn class is ranked as S-tier for both endgame and PvP, as well as A-tier for leveling in Season 6 of Diablo 4. This makes them one of the best classes you can use this season.
This isn’t a surprise as the class is new, and new classes often do well in the meta in Diablo games. Therefore, expect the Spiritborn to be a top-tier class for a long time to come.
Best Spiritborn leveling builds
| Tier | Leveling build |
|---|---|
| S | Quill Volley |
| A | Centipede Stinger |
| B | Crushing Hand |
| C | Rocksplitter Thorns |
Best leveling Spiritborn build
The best Spiritborn build for leveling is the Quill Volley build that uses the skill of the same name as its main offensive attack. Although the build makes use of the Spiritborn’s Eagle skills, it uses Gorilla as the primary path and Jaguar as the secondary one.
The Quill Volley Spiritborn is named after its main skill, Quill Volley, which fires feathers in a fan, essentially shotgunning enemies at close range. The Jaguar also contributes its fair share of passives, with Ferocity applying Vulnerable to deal extra damage. With the Rebounding Aspect from the Forge of Malice, you’re set to delete room after room of enemies.
Blizzard EntertainmentBest Spiritborn Endgame builds
| Tier | Endgame build |
|---|---|
| S | Quill Volley |
| A | Touch of Death |
| B | Evade Eagle |
| C | Crushing Hand |
Best Endgame Spiritborn build
The best endgame build for the Spiritborn is also the Quill Volley With this build, you’re ready to clear the endgame content, like Dark Citadel, and dominate Torment difficulty with ease. With an optimized Paragon Board and the Rod of Kepeleke equipped, you’re a resource-generating beast in the late game.
Best Spiritborn PvP builds
| Tier | PvP build |
|---|---|
| S | Quill Volley |
| A | Touch of Death |
| B | Evade Eagle |
| C | Crushing Hand |
Best PvP Spiritborn build
Right now, the best PvP build is the Quill Volley, but this is because the PvP meta mirrors the endgame meta at this point in lifespan of the Spiritborn class. In time, it’ll likely become its own thing, but as the class is new, its best classes are still being worked out.
Still, players are having success in PvP with the Quill Volley build, so in this early stage of Season 6, that’s the build we’d recommend.
Our tiers explained
- S: The best of the best
- A: Very good in the current meta
- B: There might be situations where these can perform well
- C: Unless you love this class, there are much better options
While Diablo 4’s meta changes every season, its movements tend not to be huge, and we often see the same tried and tested builds rising to the top.
However, as Blizzard tweaks and updates the game, there can be some surprising changes. For example, the Minion Necro was seen as a rather weak build in Seasons 2-3 but became incredibly powerful in Season 4 and beyond.
Therefore expect to see the Spiritborn fall in the meta, at least eventually.
