Infinite Evade Eagle – Spiritborn Build for Diablo 4 (Season 10)

Build Introduction

The core idea for this Infinite Evade Spiritborn is to constantly reset your Evade cooldown, mainly through Accelerated Thunderspike. Surprisingly, the main damage does not come from the skill itself, but from using Evade almost nonstop, made possible by the Eagle as our primary Spirit Guardian. The Aspect of Disobedience helps with gear pressure at higher difficulties and boosts damage with the Aspect of Unyielding Hits.

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.

Gear Slot	Gems/Runes	Aspect / Unique	Legendary Aspect / Unique Power
Helm	Cem Tzic	Loyalty’s Mantle	While your Spirit Hall choices match: Their bonuses are 100% more potent. Skills of their Base Spirit gain x% Vigor Cost Reduction and x% Cooldown Reduction.
Chest	Grand Emerald	Aspect of Disobedience	You gain {x}% increased Armor for 4 seconds when you deal any form of damage stacking up to {x}%.
Gloves		Aspect of Accursed Touch	Lucky Hit: Up to a x% chance for your Skills to inflict Vampiric Curse on enemies. Enemies afflicted with Vampiric Curse are also Vulnerable. Vampiric Curse’s stored souls deal x% increased damage.
Pants	Grand Emerald	Aspect of Interdiction	Gain x% Block Chance per Resolve Stack.
Boots		Rakanoth’s Wake	When you cast a Skill with a Cooldown, you explode, dealing {x} Fire damage.
Amulets(50% bonus)	Grand Skull	Aspect of Redirected Force	Gain increased Critical Strike Damage equal x% of your Block Chance. Blocking doubles this bonus for 10 seconds.
Ring	Grand Skull	Aspect of Unyielding Hits	Casting a Gorilla Skill increases your Weapon Damage by x% of your Armor for 3 seconds.
Ring	Grand Skull	Edgemaster’s Aspect	Skills deal up to {x}% increased damage based on your available Primary Resource when cast, receiving the maximum benefit while you have full Primary Resource.
Weapon (200% bonus)	Bac Gar	Sepazontec	Your Basic Skills deal x% increased damage and always use their 3rd attack. Every 3rd cast of a Basic Skill strikes three times.

Great alternative Aspects to use while you are still gathering the recommended ones are the Duelist’s Aspect and the Aspect of Exhilaration. The Duelist’s Aspect boosts Ferocity, which synergizes perfectly with the Aspect of Exhilaration, increasing the chance to reduce Evade cooldown for each stack of Ferocity gained.

If you get lucky and find Chaos Armor, make sure to check the Season 10 section below with our list of recommended Chaos Uniques.

Stat Priority and Tempering Affixes

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

Slot	Targeted Gear Affix	Tempering Affixes
Helm	All Stats Movement Speed Damage Reduction Ranks to Velocity	N/A
Chest	1. Dexterity 2. Armor 3. Maximum Life	Spiritborn Endurance (Defensive): Ranks to Auspicious Natural Schemes (Utility): Barrier Generation
Gloves	1. Critical Strike Chance 2. Dexterity 3. Armor	Eagle Finesse (Offensive): Storm Feathers Potency Natural Schemes (Utility) – Barrier Generation
Pants	1. Maximum Life 2. Armor 3. Dexterity	Spiritborn Recovery (Defensive): Ranks to Resilient Natural Schemes (Utility) – Barrier Generation
Boots	Movement Speed Cooldown Reduction Resistance to All Elements Non-Physical Damage	N/A
Amulet	1. Dexterity 2. Total Armor 3. Ranks to Brilliance	Eagle Finesse (Offensive): Storm Feathers Potency Centipede Efficiency (Resource): The Devourer Cooldown Reduction
Rings	1. Critical Strike Chance 2. Maximum Life 3. Dexterity	Eagle Finesse (Offensive): Storm Feathers Potency Centipede Efficiency (Resource): The Devourer Cooldown Reduction
Weapon	Chance For Basic Skills to Deal Double Damage Ranks to Follow Through Dexterity Basic Skill Lucky Hit Chance	N/A

The priority order of Resistances is Lightning > Poison > Fire > Cold > Shadow.

Make sure to reach the Armor Cap of 1,000 for survivability. However, as this builds scales with armor, we benefit from having more than the minimum. This applies to any build using the Aspect of Unyielding Hits, where higher armor increases overall damage. Furthermore, in higher difficulties, there will be a penalty to armor and resistance, so you will need a higher amount to compensate for the loss.

Season 10 Mechanics

Chaos Perks

Season 10 replaces the seasonal powers with Chaos Perks, which alter how your skills work by giving strong bonuses balanced by drawbacks. You can equip three non-Unique perks plus one Unique. Most perks are unlocked via the Seasonal Reputation board, but Unique perks become available only after defeating Bartuc in Infernal Hordes on Torment I or higher. You can upgrade your Chaos Perks with the seasonal currency Infernal Warps, increasing its impact on your build.

Power	Effect
A Beast Cornered	For every 10% Life you are missing, you gain 10-20% [x] increased damage and 5% damage reduction. Spending Resources also drains a percentage of your Life equal to 30% the Resources spent, refunding those Resources. This cannot reduce you to below 10% Life.
Crazy Brew	Your Healing Potion is infused with the power of Chaos, granting you 100% Resource Cost Reduction, 40-80%[+] increased Attack Speed and 40-80[+] increased Movement Speed for 4 seconds. Your Healing Potion has a 15 second Cooldown and you can drink it at full Life. Cooldown is now affects by Cooldown Reduction.
Marred Guard	You can no longer be healed above 50% Life. You gain 5-10% Maximum Resistance to All Elements, +10-20% Armor, and 50-100% increased Barrier and Fortify Generation.
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.

The key perk in this setup is Crazy Brew, which is extremely powerful but requires using your Life Flask actively as a damage tool. For players with less gear or those who feel unsafe, Crazy Brew can be swapped out for Accelerating Chaos to gain passive cooldown reduction, or Back Off! for more reliable damage without relying on flask usage.

Chaos Armor

Chaos Amor is a new type of Unique in Season 10. These items are more powerful versions of existing Uniques, breaking normal slot restrictions and opening up completely new ways to build your character.

We recommend looking for the following Chaos Uniques during endgame (these are example items! Slot does not matter):

• Sepazontec (Chest Armor): Once you acquire Sepazontec Chaos Armor (for any slot), replace your weapon with a Polearm (Dexterity, Life, Critical Strike, Storm Feather Potency, Primary Eagle Hall Potency) and Vehement Brawler’s Aspect.
• Loyalty’s Mantle (Gloves)
• Wushe Nak Pa (Boots)
• Fists of Fate (Pants)
• Band of First Breath (Helm)

Please make sure to keep wearing all aspects and uniques listed in the build requirements.

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.

Raheir Skill Tree choices:

• Core Skill: Ground Slam
• Core Passive: Raheir’s Aegis
• Iconic Skill: Bastion
• Iconic Passive: Inspiration

Varyana Reinforcement choices:

• Opportunity Skill: Any Skill
• Reinforcement Skill: Ancient Harpoons

Build Mechanics

Rotation and Playstyle

The main mechanic of this Perma Evade build revolves around resetting Evade cooldowns. Accelerated Thunderspike resets your Evade by 5 seconds every third attack, which matches Evade’s base cooldown, giving you an instant reset every time! Together with the Sepazontec unique weapon, our basic attack, Thunderspike, always triggers the third hit, creating a continuous loop of Evade resets. Damage is automatically dealt through Storm Feathers, thanks to choosing the Eagle as our primary Spirit Guardian. As previously mentioned; this build focuses on spamming Evade to maximize damage output. Our selected Runewords amplify this playstyle even further by increasing damage based on movement. Lastly, our ultimate skill,The Seeker, provides extra damage whenever it is off cooldown and is the most effective ultimate for maintaining Supremacy stacks. Since we are also using Intricacy in this build variant, we can use Armored Hide before and again three times after the Devourer to keep the buff from Aspect of Unyielding Hits up.

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. This list simply covers the basics, as your main focus will primarily be on using Evade:

1. Press your Evade keybind 24/7!

And then situationally:

1. Use Scourge to slow and poison enemies.
2. Armored Hide for protection, and before using the Ultimate.
3. Always use The Seeker Ultimate as soon as it comes off cooldown!
4. Use Armored Hide again after the Devourer, for the Intricacy interaction.
5. Counterattack for dodge chance and the increased Critical Strike Damage.
6. Ravager to boost the damage as well, and lastly:
7. Spam Evade all the time unless you need protection or want to boost Storm Feather damage by using one of the other skills.

Runeword Synergy

• Cem Tzic: Cem builds up 75 Offering every time you Evade, making it super easy to farm Offering in this build. Once you hit 200 Offering, Tzic automatically triggers a Concussive Stomp, slamming enemies, dealing damage, and Knocking them Down. Plus, if you overflow Offering, you get bonus damage, making it even stronger since you are keep pushing Evade.
• Bac Gar: This combo is all about rewarding movement. Bac gives you 50 Offering every time you travel 5 meters. Once you have enough Offering, Gar kicks in: for just 25 Offering, you gain +2.5% Critical Strike Chance for 5 seconds, and this effect can stack up. This means the more you move, the more crit you stack, giving you huge burst windows during fights.

Which Elixirs Should You Use?

Visit the Alchemist and craft an Elixir providing any Resistance you need most, or the Assault Elixir to increase Attack Speed. Some Elixirs cannot be crafted and only drop from activities like Helltides or Nightmare Dungeons. Additionally, make sure to keep your health potion upgraded! 

The following Elixirs are useful for most Spiritborn builds:

• Elixir of Precision provides the highest damage output increase.
• Elixir of Advantage increases your attack speed
• Elixir of Fortitude for additional survivability
