The Evade Spiritborn is one of the most versatile and mobile builds in Diablo 4 Season 10. It centers around the Spiritborn’s exceptional agility and combat flow, while leveraging the Eagle Spirit Hall’s synergy. This setup is ideal for fast endgame clears, particularly in The Pits, where it performs with minimal difficulty. Its high Vulnerable uptime and efficient clearing capabilities make it a top choice among Spiritborn players.The Evade Spiritborn's core mechanic is super simple: your Evade ability not only boosts survivability but also acts as a damage source. Its cooldown is almost instant. By combining Accelerated Thunderspike and Sepazontec, you can deal insane amounts of damage while evading enemies.The Eagle Spirit Guardian amplifies this effect by dealing Lightning damage whenever you use Evade, releasing multiple Storm Feathers, and applying Vulnerable to enemies. This makes Evade the core mechanic of this build, even though Thunderspike is the primary damage skill.In this guide, we break down how to create the Evade Spiritborn build and what else you need to make it work.Pros and cons of the Evade SpiritbornProsExtremely agile and fast-attack rotationsContinuous Evade allows for great defense and offenseHigh Vulnerable uptimeHigh Critical Strike scalingSimple gameplay for easy executionConsRequires specific gear to work (Sepazontec)Performance of the build depends on having at least two Evade chargesHigh-end gear and aspects required for unlocking full potentialSpirit Guardian setupThe Evade Spiritborn dishes out massive amounts of Critical Damage (Image via Blizzard Entertainment)The Evade Spiritborn benefits from its twin Eagle Spirit Hall setup for maximum efficiency and synergy:Primary: Eagle - Casting an Eagle Skill or Evading fires six Storm Feathers, each dealing 140% [x] Lightning damage and applying Vulnerable for five seconds. This can only occur once every 0.5 seconds. The Storm Feathers Movement Speed bonus is doubled and always active.Secondary: Eagle - Every other cast is a guaranteed Critical Strike and grants you a 20% [x] Vulnerable Damage bonus for five seconds.Together, these bonuses ensure that every Evade inflicts the maximum amount of damage while keeping a near-constant Vulnerable uptime on the enemy.Diablo 4: Best Uniques and Aspects for the Evade SpiritbornSepazontec, Rakanoth's Wake, and Loyalty's Mantle are the recommended gear to make this build work (Image via Blizzard Entertainment)Here are the best Uniques and Aspects you need for the Evade Spiritborn:1) Sepazontec (Weapon)Implicit Modifiers45% Block ChanceUnique Modifiers+35.0% Chance for Basic Skills to Deal Double Damage+4 to Follow Through+242 Dexterity+6.0% Basic Lucky Hit ChanceUnique EffectYour Basic Skills deal 120% increased damage and always use their third attack.Every third cast of a Basic Skill strikes three times.2) Loyalty’s Mantle (Helm)Unique Modifiers+65 All Stats+12.5% Movement Speed10.0% Damage Reduction+3 to VelocityUnique EffectWhile your Spirit Hall choices match:Their bonuses are 100% more potent.Skills of their Base Spirit gain 60% Vigor Cost Reduction.Skills of their Base Spirit gain 60% Cooldown Reduction.3) Rakanoth's Wake (Boots)Implicit ModifiersAttacks Reduce Evade's Cooldown by 1.5 secondsUnique Modifiers+23.0% Movement Speed8.8% Cooldown Reduction+20.0% Resistance to all Elements+75.0% Non-Physical DamageUnique EffectWhen you cast a Skill with a Cooldown, you explode, dealing 1950 Fire damage.4) Aspect of Disobedience (Chest)You gain 0.8%[+] increased Armor for four seconds when you deal any form of damage, stacking up to 46.0%[+].5) Aspect of Unyielding Hits (Ring/Amulet)Casting a Gorilla Skill increases your Weapon Damage by 30% of your Armor for three seconds.
