A recent conversation among gamers has spotlighted the best builds for hunters, sparking interest and debate. With hunter builds currently limited in options, players are actively seeking strategies to enhance their gameplay, especially for damage-per-second (DPS) and optimal support roles.
Limited Build Options
Gamers emphasize the minimal yet essential build options available. Prismatic subclasses reign supreme, particularly the Gifted Conviction build, noted for its versatility and user-friendly nature. As one player puts it, "Excels everywhere and is easy to get mileage out of."
Gifted Conviction Prismatic
Versatile and user-friendly. This build is considered one of the game’s strongest.
Best suited for beginners looking to ease into hunting mechanics.
Example HOIL / Cyrt Prismatic
Best for Grandmaster (GM) content. This build offers higher damage output but is more complex to play.
One shout-out mentioned, "My personal favorite taken through all content."
RDM Prismatic
Provides decent output. Though not favored by all, it still holds strong moments in gameplay.
Liars or Syntho / Caliban Prismatic
Niche build but functions effectively under certain conditions.
Described by one player as, "A shell of what it used to be but still solid."
Mask of Fealty Prismatic
Higher risk-reward. Users report fun gameplay with less predictability compared to others.
Buffs and Debuffs
When it comes to buffs and debuffs, the conversation shifted to the role of support mechanics. Players affirmed that a dedicated "build" isn’t necessary for this role but can enhance performance significantly. Using tools like Tractor Cannon, Lumina, or Divinity, alongside Radiant Dodge, can fill this critical niche.
"You can use any of the above to fill that position," advised one commenter.
