Evade Spiritborn Endgame Build Guide for Diablo IV Season 12 - Slaughter

In the T1 Starter variant you Evade Weave with Thunderspike and keep up Unyielding Hits with Rock Splitter by casting it every 3 seconds, especially when fighting Elites and Bosses.

HOW TO EVADE WEAVE - FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

1. Hold Position: Prevent normal moving when attempting to attack.
   • Mouse & Keyboard: Toggle Hold or Press the Hold Position Key (default is Shift).
   • Controller: Face the direction you want to Evade.
2. Thunderspike Attack
   • Both Mouse & Keyboard and Console: Press & Hold Thunderspike.
3. Evade Attack
   • Mouse & Keyboard: Spam Evade (default is Spacebar).
   • Controller: Spam Evade (default is B).
4. Rinse & Repeat Steps 2 & 3 (until the blasting is done).

NOTE: Evading "too fast" to properly weave, or not hitting enemies with Thunderspike can slow you down. Keep it a steady pace.

• Keep Armored Hide up as much as possible.
• Use Counterattack when needed around bosses, but you don't want permanent dodge or you lose a large damage bonus from Redirected Force
• Press Rock Splitter once every 3 seconds to help keep your Unyielding Hits up, mostly on Elites and Bosses, and Combined Strikes Legendary Aspect.
• Use The Devourer whenever possible to increase Supremacy stacks by killing enemies.
• Make sure to use your Intricacy procs on Armored Hide, to ensure more uptime on Unyielding Hits and Redirected Force.

In the Starter Seeker Transition variant you are looking to spamming The Seeker, while still working towards the Ancestral Variant. You still are Evade-Weaving until you hit the 59%+ Evade Cooldown reduction. Learn more about when to transition to Seeker in the FAQ & Mechanics section.

The T1 Seeker Transition variant skill rotation is essentially identical to that of the T1 Starter variant.

• Use The Seeker when you need 100% Critical Strike Chance, mainly on Elites and Bosses.
• Becomes more beneficial once you get Wushe Nak Pa.
• Make sure to use your Intricacy procs on Armored Hide, to ensure more uptime on Unyielding Hits and Redirected Force.

REQUIREMENT: Before you can Perma-Evade, you need reach the Evade Cooldown Reduction with

• +Evade Charges Boot implicit.
• Thunderspike on Skill Bar, with Accelerated Thunderspike enabled.
• 59%+ Total Evade Cooldown Reduction.
  • The "easiest" way to achieve this is 2x GA Evade Cooldown Reduction Tempers & 1 GA Cooldown Reduction (CDR) Affix on ring or gloves.
  • If you don't have the GA on your Tempers & Affixes, then you need MW Crit them for the same value outcome.
• You cant just ADD your cooldown stats together, they are inverse multipliers
  • Build Variants / Mechanics section below for full explanation.
  • Check your Evade stats with Spiritborn Mega-Calc.

NOTE: "Attacks reduce Evade Cooldown" implicit doesn't work with invoked skills, which is why +Evade charges boot implicit is needed for Perma-Evade.

The Mythic variant skill rotation is essentially identical to that of Ancestral Perma-Evade variant.

REQUIREMENT: Before you can Perma-Evade, you need reach the Evade Cooldown Reduction with

• +Evade Charges Boot implicit.
• Thunderspike on Skill Bar, with Accelerated Thunderspike enabled.
• 59%+ Total Evade Cooldown Reduction
  • The "easiest" way to achieve this is 2x GA Evade Cooldown Reduction Tempers & 1 GA Cooldown Reduction (CDR) Affix on ring or gloves.
  • If you don't have the GA on your Tempers & Affixes, then you need MW Crit them for the same value outcome.
• You cant just ADD your cooldown stats together, they are inverse multipliers
  • Build Variants / Mechanics section below for full explanation.
  • You can also achieve this with two evade cooldown tempers.
  • Check your Evade stats with Spiritborn Mega-Calc.

The Push variant's skill rotation is almost identical to that of Ancestral Perma-Evade & Mythic variants. You can still Speedfarm with this variant but its main focus is pushing.

• You no longer have Soar to use for it's utility.
• Don't cast Rock Splitter or Concussive Stomp, it is only used for max life from the passive Resilient.
• Cast Armored Hide then cast The Seeker on the first large Elite pack you see to knock-down (and chance to regain a charge). By aiming Seeker on Elite packs, you have the best chance to regain charges.
