Centipede Leveling Build |
|
| Focus: Leveling, Farming | |
|
|
|
This build makes use of Stinger and Touch of Death to spread and apply poison to your enemies, while having the Eagle as your primary and secondary Spirit Hall specialization to proc Ferocity and deal more damage.
The combination of Scourge and Armored Skin makes this build a bit tanky, which gives you enough survivability to overwhelm your enemies with poison. We recommend this build for those who are still leveling to reach the endgame and help you get started on Torment difficulties.

More skills can be seen by scrolling horizontally and vertically.
At the early levels, focus on unlocking and upgrading all your skills, especially Stinger and Touch of Death as these will provide most of your damage. If you do not have Touch of Death yet, we recommend prioritizing Stinger until you have access to Touch of Death.
Once you reach the Ultimate and Key Passive skill trees, prioritize getting The Devourer and Noxious Resonance as this will be your highest damaging poison skill and allows your Poisoning effects to scale with Critical Strike Damage.
For your Passives, you will want to prioritize Balanced Extortion, Apex, Ravenous, Oppresive, Brilliance, and Acceleration to help increase the damage you deal in tandem with your Centipede skills and Eagle skills from the Spirit Hall specialization.
| Primary Spirit |
|---|
(Level 15) Casting an Eagle Skill grants 4 seconds of the Storm Feathers Movement Speed bonus. When you Evade, fling up to 8 Storm Feathers for everyone remaining second, each dealing 125% Lightning damage and making targets Vulnerable for 5 seconds. All Skills are now also Eagle Skills. |
| Secondary Spirit |
(Level 30) Maximum Ferocity is increased by 1. Gain 1 stack of Ferocity whenever you kill an enemy or damage a Boss. |
Eagle is the best specialization for the Primary slot and Jaguar for the Secondary slot in this Centipede build since it gives you access to Vulnerable and Ferocity, which increase attack speed and damage, respectively.

| Chaos Perks Setup | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Alacrity Your Basic Skills gain 10-30% increased Attack Speed, their dash range is increased by 50% and their 3rd attack now happens every 2nd attack. |
Marred Guard You can no longer be healed above 50% Life. You gain 5-10% Maximum Resistance to All Elements, +20-40% Armor, and 50-100% increased Barrier and Fortify Generation. |
Power Siphon Your Core Skills deal 50-100% increased damage, but also reduce your Maximum Current Resource by 20 for 6 seconds. This reduction stacks but does not refresh. |
|||
The Chaos Perks for the Centipede build focuses on boosting your Core skill damage with Power Siphon and Alacrity. This synergizes well since you will be spamming your Core skill most of the time to work in tandem with your new Chaos Perks.
Do note that if you do not have the suggested Chaos Perks, we recommended focusing on leveling up and grinding Nightmare Dungeons and Helltides until you obtain the Chaos Perks you need for the build.

| Season 10 Spiritborn Leveling Tips |
|---|
|
|
Make sure to start on Hard or higher so you can gain more EXP and Gold. If you're following our recommended leveling build and have a good understanding of optimizing early game leveling, we recommend playing on this difficulty. Otherwise, you can choose the Normal difficulty to clear things faster.
Difficulty Tiers and How to Unlock
The Spiritborn's Spirit Hall, which unlocks at level 15 after doing the specialization quest, allows the class to assign all their skills with a Spirit Tag to a specific Spirit Guardian. We recommend equipping Eagle immediately since this gives you access to Vulnerability and Storm Feathers.
At level 30, you will also unlock the Secondary Spirit Hall Slot which allows you equip a second Spirit Guardian that gives spirit-specific passives that can enhance your gameplay. It's best to choose Jaguar to get access to Ferocity, which increases attack speed.
Spirit Hall Specialization Guide
If you have the Vessel of Hatred expansion, you can also farm gear and power levels in the Kurast Undercity once you get the build going and get faster clearing monster packs.
At the start of your Season 10 journey you'll want to immediately grind Nightmare Dungeons and Helltides to participate in Chaos Rifts and gain keys for Fleeting and Infernal Hordes.
