Builds for both the campaign and end game mode

Luckily, there are some builds out there for new players looking for a bit of direction that cater to all types. From bloodthirsty warriors that spin axes repeatedly, to mages that want to see things explode. We’ve got a collection of the best builds right here for you to use, including one that we’ve found to be very handy indeed that we made.
Wolcen builds guide
Since there are so many customised options for builds, thisWolcen builds guidehas some ideas for the best builds to get you started. Each one will contain the skills you need to equip, the modifiers that should be enabled, which points you should spend upon levelling up, and general track on the skill tree you should be following.
OurWolcen guidehas some tips and tricks for beginners. If you’re here to try and fix the third act’s boss, thisWolcen Act 3 bossguide should give you a workaround. Some of these builds require items of a certain kind, so read up on ourWolcen itemsguide to learn more.Some of these builds are very useful for theWolcen Champion Of Stormfallend game,especially during the rather longWolcen Expeditions, so use our guides to get started.

Plaguelord build
One of the best builds comes from Youtube User “Vulkan” and it is especially good for magic users that like to see demons explode. The general idea when you’re attacking is to combine both Anomaly and Plagueburst so that the area fills up with poisonous gasses from exploded enemies. Other skills are there to accelerate killing the enemy.If there is one build I highly recommend you use, it is this one.

Mage build
This one is more of a classic mage build. The idea here is to have a bunch of high-damaging spells that affect multiple targets. You will then use Aether Jump to get out of the way of your targets, whileBulwarkof Dawn gives you health recovery should things get a bit dicey.

Gun mage build
For those that want to have a lot more guns in their arsenal, we have a build here that comes from Youtube User “ZiggyD Gaming”. With this build, you’re essentially playing with stasis effects to deal as much damage to enemies as possible, while also keeping healthy with Bulwark of Dawn.

Note that the sixth active skill is for endgame.

Blades Edge pure melee build
This build comes from the Wolcen forums and the user “ron-pierce”. Combat is initiated with Wings of Ishmir to buff damage and drag enemies towards you. You can then use Sovereign Shout and Juggernaut triggered twice to burst most enemy groups. Following that, you use Blood for Blood andBleeding Edge, dragging enemies to you with Wings of Ishmir to get sliced up.

White arrow ranger build
We have also concocted a build of our own for those who wish to be more dedicated to using a bow and arrow. Critical hits and maximising the number of projectiles is the way to go here, but there’s also some evasion present to allow you to avoid being hit.

Spin 2 Win build
Another really good build from Youtube User “Vulkan”. This is a melee focused build that will carry you through the end-game portion of Wolcen. It’s aim is to ensure a spinning axe is moving alongside you, slicing every opponent you have.

Sacred crusader build
Finally, here’s a more defensive build that relies a lot of abilities that enable you to tank hits. You’ll also be dealing back fire and sacred damage, with skills that cleave through your enemies as they try in vain to hit you. It’s not as good as the others, but still a fun one to build.

Those are the Wolcen builds we have so far, but more will be coming in the near future. We’ll also be bringing you a few more guides focused on how to defeat certain bosses, beginning with theWolcen Act 1 boss. There will also be in-depth guides on theWolcen skill tree (classes)for passive skills, or theWolcen skillsfor details on active skills.
