This is the Rotation and Gameplay page of the Touch of Death Spiritborn Build. To navigate to the other pages of this build, you can use the buttons below.


Gameplay Mechanics

This build revolves around efficient Vigor management and Pestilent Swarm multiplicator, letting you cast Touch of DeathTouch of Death as often as possible. Thanks to the Rod of KepelekeRod of Kepeleke, you can use Touch of Death for free because Poised Touch of DeathPoised Touch of Death turns it into a core and basic skill, with a high chance of critical strikes. Paired with the Ring of the Midnight SunRing of the Midnight Sun, this ensures you maintain Vigor, making your rotation feel good and efficient. Touch of Death also benefits from Insatiable AspectInsatiable Aspect, further boosting its damage.

For defense, Armored HideArmored Hide provides solid protection, while the Ring of the Midnight SunRing of the Midnight Sun will also increase dodge chance by granting the CounterattackCounterattack passive, allowing you to add VortexVortex to the skill bar to bring enemies to you. ScourgeScourge further helps with crowd control and spawning additional Pestilent Swarms. And lastly, your Ultimate, The HunterThe Hunter, amplifies your damage even more!

Rotation

Let’s see how this build will look in action:

  1. VortexVortex to engage the enemy.
  2. Use RavagerRavager to boost Ferocity and gain additional damage over 6 seconds.
  3. Armored HideArmored Hide for increased protection.
  4. The HunterThe Hunter Ultimate for even more damage.
  5. ScourgeScourge to benefit from the increased Vigor regeneration rate for 6 seconds.
  6. Spam Touch of DeathTouch of Death as much as possible!

Runewords Mechanic

Another interesting interaction worth mentioning within this section comes from the Runewords we use in this build to trigger powerful effects. We use PocPocQueQue in our Armor and XolXol TalTal in our Weapon.

When you spend 5% of your Maximum Resource, you gain 5 Offering from PocPoc. Once you reach 300 Offering, QueQue automatically evokes the Druid’s Earthen Bulwark, granting a Barrier. XolXol will trigger whenever you invoke a power from another class (like Earthen Bulwark), granting 150 Offering, and TalTal then evokes additional Pestilent Swarms, for additional damage.

This combination lets you repeatedly spawn Pestilent Swarms and deal damage with minimal effort.
