DISCLAIMER: This build is currently being tested for required gear and performance at the endgame. While we believe the build will be very powerful, we need to work out exactly how many Skill Ranks etc are required to make the build function well. Check back soon to see what we’ve discovered!

Build Introduction

This Infinite Eagle Evade Spiritborn build utilizes the Evasive SwipeEvasive Swipe passive to make Rushing ClawRushing Claw an Eagle skill, and also to count as an Evade and not require a target, allowing you to dash around at insane speeds while passively throwing out a huge amount of Storm Feathers from the Eagle Spirit Hall.

Starting new? Begin with our Quill Volley Leveling Build and switch to this one at Level 70.

Spiritborn Class Mechanic – Spirit Hall Choice

The Spirit Hall allows you to combine two different Spirit Guardians or stick with just one. For this build, we go with Eagle as both Spirit Guardian, really focusing on amplifying our Eagle Skills and gaining in mobility.

  • Primary: Eagle
    • Casting an Eagle Skill or Evading shoots 6 Storm Feathers, each dealing 140% Lightning damage and applying Vulnerable for 5 seconds. The Storm Feathers Movement Speed bonus is doubled and always active. All Skills are now also Eagle Skills.
  • Secondary: Eagle
    • Every other Cast is a guaranteed Critical Strike that grants you a 20% Vulnerable Damage bonus for 5 seconds.

Gear, Stats, Gems, and Runes

The following sections cover all systems that are important if you want to improve the power of your character in the endgame of Diablo 4. 

Legendary Aspects

Each Aspect is listed with its matching gear slot. Do your best to keep each Aspect in the assigned slot. Remember to salvage Legendary Items with higher Aspect values to unlock them in the Codex of Power, and then imprint them onto gear pieces with the preferred affixes. For best results, combine these Aspects with the right stat priorities.

Stat Priority and Tempering Affixes

For this build to function correctly you require At Least 4 Minimum Ferocity to be able to consistently spam your Evasive SwipeEvasive Swipe. While we believe this requires Rank 20 RavagerRavager we have been unable to test it on the live servers as of yet. It is important that if you want to try this build you focus on gaining additional Levels to Jaguar, Eagle and Focus Skills until you reach the skill rank to achieve 4 Minimum Ferocity combined with the +1 Minimum Ferocity Passive.

Affixes on the same line are considered to be equally important. Bolded affixes are the most important targets for Greater Affix or Masterworking Capstone Bonus. Be sure to check our Tempering and Masterworking guides for more details about these topics. Want to jump back up to the gear table?

Season 13 Mechanics

Season 13 sees the launch of the long awaited Lord of Hatred Expansion. While there are no specific Seasonal Mechanics, there plenty of new systems to explore, including War Plans, Talismans, the Horadric Cube and more!


Talisman – Seals and Charms

One new addition with the Lord of Hatred Expansion is the addition of the Talisman system. This allows you to add a Seal and up to 6 Charms that provide powerful bonuses to your character. This includes adding additional Unique effects without having to wear a specific unique, or even to collect new Set Charms that grant more powerful bonuses as you socket more of the set. For a more detailed breakdown check out our General Talisman Guide here!

This build uses the Kwatli’s Grace Charm Set to massively increase your damage and movement speed, allowing you to fly around at breakneck speed by simply playing as you normally would. It also uses the Wushe Nak PaWushe Nak Pa to scale the potency of your Eagle Spirit Hall by a huge amount.

Seals and Charms also roll with random statistics, and while they are secondary to making sure you have the Set and Unique Charms, here is a list of powerful statistics you should keep an eye out for:

  1. Damage Multipliers, Attack Speed, Cooldown Reduction
  2. Maximum Life, Armor, Resistances, Move Speed

Mercenaries

During the Vessel of Hatred campaign, you will unlock Mercenaries to assist you. While you can choose freely early on, we recommend Raheir as your main companion, and Varyana as Reinforcement.

Build Mechanics

Rotation and Playstyle

Playing this build is all about speed and using your abilities on cooldown. While the playstyle is quite straightforward, getting used to using Evasive SwipeEvasive Swipe as a way to move around and deal your damage indirectly through the Storm Feathers from your Primary Eagle Spirit Hall can take some practice, particularly at high attack speeds.

Below, you will find a quick list of the skills you will have on your skill bar and how they could be used, rather than a strict rotation or priority.

  1. Use RavagerRavager on cooldown to deal additional damage and gain additional Cooldown Reduction.
  2. Use ScourgeScourge on cooldown to fear nearby enemies and gain additional Damage Reduction.
  3. Use Armored HideArmored Hide on cooldown to gain a large amount of Block Chance, and additional Resolve
  4. Use The SeekerThe Seeker on cooldown for a large damage burst, and to gain additional ferocity
  5. DO NOT use ThunderspikeThunderspike. It is strictly on your bar to passively activate and refresh Evade cooldown.
  6. Spam Evasive SwipeEvasive Swipe and Evade to deal damage. You do not need to target enemies; simply rushing past them and letting your feathers hit them will deal the bulk of your damage.

While the majority of your damage will come from the Storm Feathers each time you use Evasive SwipeEvasive Swipe and Evade, hitting enemies directly with Evasive Swipe will increase your damage, particularly in single target scenarios. When its safe to do so, you should target enemies directly if you need more damage. Just be careful of Ground Effects when choosing to deal direct damage with Evasive Swipe.

Runeword Synergy

  • Cem Que – Every 4 times you Evade or use Rushing ClawRushing Claw you will trigger the Druids Earthen Bulwark, rapidly generating Barrier.
  • Bac Ohm – By racing around constantly you will rapidly trigger the Barbarian War Cry ability to provide a damage increase.

Season Updates

For a full overview of what is new in Season 13, please take a look at our comprehensive season hub. Here is a quick overview of seasonal changes relevant to this build.

  • Season 13 overhauls the Skill Tree and adds the new Talisman system, as well as adding several new core systems, such as the War Plans endgame system and the Horadric Cube.

Obol Gambling

Similar to Kadala in Diablo 3, the Purveyor of Curiosities lets you gamble your Obols for 850 item power gear at Level 70, making them a great way to fill in missing affixes, Aspects, or upgrades. There is also a small chance to receive an Ancestral piece with item power 900.
