Plunderstorm build

Arcane Tempest

B

tier

Focuses on CCing opponents with Storm Archon in-game iconStorm Archon while poking them down from range. Very slippery with Fade to Shadow in-game iconFade to Shadow and Faeform in-game iconFaeform.

Strengths

Weaknesses

  • Damage can be quite easy to avoid in solos due to lack of CC -- works better in duos

How to use Arcane Tempest build

Poke from a distance with Mana Sphere in-game iconMana Sphere, looking for opportunities to land Storm Archon in-game iconStorm Archon.

Use Fade to Shadow in-game iconFade to Shadow and Faeform in-game iconFaeform liberally to avoid damage and reposition. You can also use them offensively to set up Storm Archon in-game iconStorm Archon combos.

It's important to play defensively and from range due to the lack of CC once in melee range. Avoid committing to risky fights and focus on poking from a safe distance.

This build thrives against immobile opponents who can't dodge ranged projectiles easily. Against highly mobile enemies, try to bait out their movement abilities before going for a combo.

Duos tip

This build works better in duos but relies heavily on your partner's CC. Ask your partner to try pick up Windstorm in-game iconWindstorm or Steel Traps in-game iconSteel Traps to help set up kills.
