How builds work
Twelve combat slots decide what a build can do. Damage comes from the weapons, survivability from armor and talismans, and artifacts plus enchantments change how the whole loop runs.
Modifies the loop
Enchanting
Enchantments are applied at the Enchantsmith from books you collect, so a build is not locked to one drop. Rolled gear effects stay part of the item; applied enchantments are the part you choose.
Gear in these builds
The pieces that show up most often, with the builds that use them.
Missing a piece?
Every build lists where its weapons, armor and artifacts drop. Open the farm finder to check the sources for a whole loadout.

Build FAQ
No. The right build depends on the boss, the content and the gear you actually own, so these loadouts are starting points you adjust rather than a single ranking.
Not automatically. Many Uniques share their base weapon or armor stats and add a fixed effect, so they are a sidegrade for the build until that effect supports what the loadout is doing.
A full set is the easiest way to keep the same gear effects and survivability, but four pieces from one set are not required. Swap individual slots when a piece has the effect you need.
Upgrade the weapon you use for your main damage and the armor slot that keeps you alive. The Blacksmith and Enchantsmith guides cover costs and rerolls.
