5 best Spiritborn builds in Diablo 4 Season 6

Diablo 4’s new class Spiritborn has so many amazing builds to play, but which ones are the absolute best? One such build is the Infinite Evade Eagle build, which is currently so fast and powerful that it's causing server lag. A hotfix is on the way, and once it's updated, we’ll see how it stands among the rest of the builds. Hence, for now, we’re leaving it off the list.

However, it’s worth noting that you cannot play a Spiritborn build in Diablo 4 Season 6 unless you have the Vessel of Hatred expansion. Without that, you just have to pick another one of the great classes D4 has to offer. But if you’re ready to channel the animal spirits, here are our favorite builds.

Which Spiritborn builds are most powerful in Diablo 4 Season 6?

The following are the favorite/most powerful Spiritborn builds in Diablo 4 Season 6. If major balance changes are going forward over the next few months, this could change.

Quill Volley
Gorilla Thorns
Touch of Death
Razor Wings
Rake Jaguar

1) Quill Volley

Quill Volley is arguably one of the best Spiritborn builds for Diablo 4 Season 6 players right now. It deals tons of single target and AOE damage, is fast/mobile, thanks to Soar, tanky, and Armored Hide, and uses Quill Volley as the primary damage output. Draw enemies in with Vortex and smash them to pieces. It also uses Ravager and The Hunter for more damage.

However, it does require at least one Unique: Ring of the Midnight Sun. A few others help, such as Rod of Kepeleke and Banished Lord’s Talisman. It also requires a specific legendary aspect - Rebounding Aspect to make Quill Volley’s feathers explode at their apex and return, for more damage.

2) Gorilla Thorns

If you want to build a powerful thorns build, but don’t care for Barbarian, Diablo 4’s Spiritborn build Gorilla Thorns is an excellent choice. Like most Thorns builds, it does require specific gear: Scorn of the Earth, Razorplate, and Loyalty’s Mantle. It also needs a few extra Aspects: Aspect of Plains Power and Needleflare Aspect. You’ll want to use Double Gorilla in the Spirit Hall as well.

We use Toxic Skin and Counterattack for both their active and passive, Rushing Claw for mobility and damage, and Rake/The Hunter for damage, and thanks to the Gorilla Spirit Hall, tons of thorns damage. This is a build that fearlessly rushes into danger’s path, and smashes targets into pieces.

3) Touch of Death

This Jaguar/Eagle Spirit Hall build is easily one of the best Diablo 4 Spiritborn builds. It takes a little work though, as you’ve got to build and manage Vigor well. If you’re skilled at that, this hard-hitting build will feel and look incredible. You also have to manage DOT gear and direct damage gear, and it’s not quite as survivable as some of the other builds.

In this build, we Vortex enemies in, and hit them with Withering Fist, The Hunter, Toxic Skin, Touch of Death, and Scourge. However, like most endgame builds, it requires some serious Uniques. You want Harmony of Ebewaka, Scorn of the Earth, and it couldn’t hurt to also have Ring of the Midday Hunt. It’s a solid, flashy build, and is incredibly fun to run.

4) Razor Wings

While using Loyalty’s Mantle, Jacinth Shell, Temerity, and the Legendary Aspect Aspect of Deflection, this Double Eagle Spirit Hall build shines. You use Razor Wing Counterattack, and The Seeker to get free casts of Razor Wings. It’s fast, fun, and deals tons of damage. It’s not as great as Infinite Evade, but there’s no telling if that will be worth it after its pending nerfs.

However, this build also needs some pretty specific Tempers/Masterworking to make it work. Lots of specific Natural Schemes/Eagle Efficiency/Eagle Finesse, among others, to make it work. That could make it frustrating if you’re unlucky when it comes to Tempering.

5) Rake Jaguar

Rake Jaguar is such a fun build for Diablo 4’s Spiritborn class. A Double Jaguar build, it uses Loyalty’s Mantle as a must-have to increase the output of Rake ability. Rock Splitter is the generator and also comes with the powerful Armored Hide defensive, Ravager, Rushing Claws, and of course, The Hunter.

It’s a mobile, hard-hitting build, and regardless of whether you’re fighting bosses or waves of enemies, you can shred right through them. However, this one doesn’t really work at all without Loyalty’s Mantle, and is, in general, pretty gear-reliant. Even with that, it’s a remarkably fun build, and powerful to boot.
