If the player wants a robust healer, Meilin Fisher is one of the must-build hunters in Solo Leveling Arise. She is a Water-type hunter with excellent buffs. This Solo Leveling Arise Hunter can buff all of the team members’ attack, defense, critical hit rate, and core attack damage while also reducing the damage taken. Meilin Fisher can also restore the HP of all her team members using the Rear Lash Basic Skill.

She can also remove the enemy’s shield with her Basic Skill, Up! Her Passive can increase the Water elemental damage the enemies take. Meilin doesn’t need many dupes and can function excellently at Advancement Tier 1. Players can use Meilin Fisher with Alicia Blanche to significantly boost the latter’s performance.

Alicia Blanche is one of the must-build Water-type hunters in Solo Leveling Arise. She belongs to the Mage class and can crowd-control enemies, deal damage, and grant Ice Body Armor shields to all her team members. Ice Body Armor also removes debuffs when triggered. At Advancement 1, the shield also buffs her Critical Hit Rate and Critical Hit damage.

Her Passive allows her to spam the Core Attack, Frost Arrow, by applying the Frost effect. She obtains Frost stacks after using her Basic Skills, QTE Skill, and Ultimate Skill. Additionally, her Core Attack’s damage increases by 60% for every Frost stack. When paired with Seo Jiwoo, the duo can cakewalk any Water content.

Cha Hae-In is another Light-type hunter who deals the highest damage among other DPS characters. She can use her Basic Skill, The Dancer, for infinite amounts of time for three seconds with The Dancer effect. The Dancer effect also increases her Attack and Critical Hit Damage. The hunter can also apply the Unrecoverable to the target, making them unable to recover HP.

She can also apply the Brand debuff on targets that make them receive an increased Critical Hit Rate and Critical Hit damage. Using her with Go Gunhee significantly increases her damage, allowing players to defeat the challenging bosses.

Every Advancement Tier of Cha either increases her Critical Rate or damage-dealing ability. These reasons make her one of the must-build hunters in Solo Leveling Arise.

Our second entry in must-build hunters in Solo Leveling Arise is Amamiya Mirei. This Wind-type hunter belongs to the Assassin class and can deal insane damage to enemies. The hunter’s Basic Skill, Kuroha’s Sword Technique Type 3: Wings of Night, charges her Power Gauge by 15%. On the other hand, her other skills deal damage, knock down enemies, or inflict the Airborne effect.

However, her Ultimate Skill, Kuroha’s Sword Technique Lethal Move: Moonless Night Overture, has the most advantageous effects. While using it, she can remove debuffs from all her team members. She can also enter the Possessed state with it. It resets the cooldown of her Basic Skills and decreases their cooldowns. She also gains Super Armor and buffs her damage.

At Advancement 1, the Possessed effect also increases her Critical Hit Rate and Critical Hit damage. If anyone wants a robust damage dealer, Amamiya Mirei is one of the top must-build hunters in Solo Leveling Arise.

Let’s discuss the most obvious must-build hunter, Go Gunhee. This Light-type is one of the must-build hunters in Solo Leveling Arise for any player.

He can also inflict break damage with all his skills, even with his Ultimate Skill at Advancement Tier 3.

He can also buff Light-type team members’ elemental damage and critical damage. Go Gunhee can also generate shields for himself, buff his defense, and increase his damage with his passive and Advancement Tier effects. Players can use him in almost every team, head to the dungeon, and become victorious.
