Diablo 4 Spiritborn BuildSlash' n Burn Fireborn

There are currently a number of bugged interactions going on with Spiritborn builds which are enabling SIGNIFICANTLY higher damage numbers than would be normally achievable. The following are worth being aware of as they will likely be patched in future:

The Viscous Shield Legendary Paragon Node is currently working off your Base Life rather than your Maximum Life. This means for every multiple of Base Life you have, you get multiples of what the Viscous Shield node is applying to the final damage output. This is supposed to be capped at 33% Damage at 100% Barrier, but it will currently be 33% x (Maximum Life / Base Life) leading to multiplicative numbers into the 100's[x] or 1000's[x].

The Block Chances shows as being capped at 100% but it is actually working as an uncapped value right now so the Interdiction Aspect is currently allowing your Block Chance to scale significantly above 100% at up to 15% per Resolve Stack. This means at 20 Resolve Stacks you would gain an extra 300% Block Chance. which is important because the Redirected Force Aspect scales your Critical Damage proportionate to your Block Chance and because that is scaling so much higher than it should, your Critical Damage is also scaling in the same way.

It's also worth mentioning that the Masterworking on Maximum Resolve Stacks currently seems to scale much greater than you would normally expect which allows for a significantly higher number of Maximum Resolve Stacks than you would normally be able to achieve. This plays into the previous point quite strongly as well as scaling Damage Reduction through the Perserverance Passive Node.

Whilst levelling there are a number of methods you can use to help cap your Armour & Resistances. The following are some of them:

You can equip the Rakanoth's Wake boots to cap your Resistances until you find yourselve able to solve Resistances without the use of the big affix on this unique. The issue with this unique is it has fantastic affixes but the aspect is just not useful to us. This is an excellent stepping stone towards perfecting this build though.

If you have a Tyrael's Might mythic unique chest then this is also a fantastic stepping stone item towards solving Resistances in Torment 4. This item has a similar issue to that of the Rakanoth's Wake which is the aspect isn't all that useful and you then lack the tempers for Touch of Death Swarm Duration & Maximum Resolve Stacks which greatly reduces the Damage and Damage Reduction of this build.

In solo you can use Raheir the defensive mercenary who can offer you either +15% Armour or +15% Resistances based on which route you take on his skill tree. This is extremely useful for helping you reach your defensive caps before you can get hold of Best in Slot gear.

The Jugernaut's Aspect can help cap your Armour easily at the cost of evade having double the cooldown. This is fine given the mobility baked into this build anyway so this is a very good place to start whilst figuring out how to cap your Armour otherwise.

Essences can be used to help cap either your Armour or Resistances and are easy and cheap enough to craft so I would highly recommend this until you're able to cap otherwise.
