Legendary Aspects

Only one Legendary Aspect is absolutely required for this build, but several others make the build even stronger or have special uses. Here are the Legendary Aspects you want to look for:

  1. Pestilence – Acquired via the Hallowed Stones dungeon in Nahantu
  2. Haste – Acquired via the Seething Underpass dungeon in Nahantu
  3. Turbulence – Acquired via the Ruined Wild dungeon in Nahantu

Runes

The absolute best in slot Runes for this Spiritborn leveling build are Lith and Que. Another strong option is Tam and Kry. For individual runes, look for Wat, Cir, Poc, or Xal.

Mercenaries

With this Stinger Spiritborn leveling build you will want to use the mercenary Raheir as your hired Mercenary, with Varyana as your Reinforcement. Raheir is very strong for Spiritborn as he provides survivability as well as some Stuns and damage. Here is how you want to build Raheir’s passive tree:

  1. Shield Charge
  2. Raheir’s Guard
  3. Crater
  4. Iron Wolf’s Call

End Game Transition

Once you reach Level 60 and start to transition into your end-game build, you have a couple of options. You can continue with Stinger Spiritborn and start working towards specific Uniques that only further accelerate the build, or you can transition into a different build. For end game builds for Spiritborn, I recommend going with the Quill Volley Spiritborn or Touch of Death Spiritborn builds.
