Overview

Slumbering Primordial is a powerful Large build-around that converts spammy triggers into absurdly fast scaling. With the right support, it can infinitely loop itself for a crazy combo kill.

As with most Large Gold-tier items, Slumbering Primordial will need to be discovered later on. However, its synergistic nature makes it an easier pickup, even when you didn't plan for it.

Example Early/Mid Game Path

Slumbering Primordial mostly exists as a pivot build due to it being a Large Gold-tier item. However, the fortunate part is that it makes good use of many of Vanessa's staple items and skills. If you're already playing an Aquatic build or Slow Burn setup, you may have an easier opening when the opportunity arises.

Refer to the build guides above for an in-depth look at some early to mid game lines.

End Game Build Breakdown

Core Synergies

  • Slumbering Primordial is the sole win condition and doesn't require any additional scaling from items/skills to be effective (just an upgrade).
    • Enchanting it with Fiery/Toxic can help establish the infinite loop, allowing it to Charge itself.
  • Incendiary Rounds creates the highest quantity of Charge triggers, making it a key enabler for the build.
    • Dive Weights goes hand-in-hand with its absurd Multicast value. Add some Gunpowder to ramp it up even further.
    • Clamera is the next best adjacent option if you want to optimize startup time (immediate trigger for Zoarcid).
    • Otherwise, place it adjacent to Slumbering Primordial for even more Multicast.
  • Heated Shells is a key skill that lets you utilize the fast speed of Nesting Doll and Pop Snappers.
  • Holsters combines perfectly with a suite of Small items, providing the fastest startup for Slumbering Primordial.
  • Iceberg is an alternative game plan that trades speed for disruption. It's a more reactive setup, but fares well against spammy opponents.
  • Custom Scope grants a solid source of Crit plus the ability to Charge other items. Not a priority, but a reasonable choice if you have an extra slot.

Tips & Tricks

  • Upgrading Slumbering Primordial to Diamond-tier is a must for the late game, as going from a one to two second Charge makes a huge difference.
  • Finding unique enchanted items can open up a lot of room for creativity. Stay open minded and think outside of the box.
  • Consider prioritizing a Restorative/Shielded enchant (or a Lifesteal skill) if the run goes long, as you'll likely need some sustain while you scale up the Damage.
  • Oceanic Rush and Tracer Fire are two more excellent additions. The former improves startup time, the latter scales Crit.
