The Bazaar Meta Builds (Season 10)

Oni Mask offers some of the strongest Burn scaling in the game, provided you can reliably Crit. This is quite achievable with various Small Crit items, along with powerful skills like Tracer Fire that benefit from Incendiary Rounds spam. Worst case, it's an easy pivot into other Slow Burn builds like Lighthouse.

Build Guide:

• Slow Burn Vanessa

Slumbering Primordial emerges as a top end finisher for Vanessa. It slots in well alongside many of the universally popular components like Clamera, Dive Weights, and Incendiary Rounds. Heated Shells setups enable the fastest startup, but you can also pair it with Elemental Depth Charge.

A Full Ammo setup is definitely viable as long as you pickup some Damage and/or Ammo skills. It packs incredibly fast burst that can take out its foes before they even get started. Post Orange Julian nerfs, it's generally the faster and more reliable option compared to the previous combo-centric builds.

Build Guide:

• Gunslinger Aggro Vanessa

Cargo Shorts enables a huge variety of combo builds, all off the back of its absurd Multicast. It's the perfect balance of offense and defense scaling, as it can take advantage of items like 28 Hour Fitness and PiggleStorm Gaming House, or utilize extra Charge spam with Textiles or Piggles Board.

Landscraper defines the latest iteration of the classic Shield conversion archetype. Its core game plan is fast and efficient, and having Shield helps it contest against the large presence of Burn builds.

Freeze Pyg has become a bit more accessible with recent buffs to Steam Ladle, Ice Cream Truck, and Gavel. This opens more potential lines during the early to mid game, which is exactly what Freeze builds need. Play whatever you find, then let Yetarian Club or Steam Ladle carry you across the finish line.

Build Guide:

• Giant Ice Club Pygmalien
• Steam Ladle Pygmalien

Dooltron is an absolute powerhouse due to its flexibility and raw numbers. There are a wide variety of efficient engines, often taking advantage of contextual enchanted setups (with lots of Small items), or Cooldown reduced Haste spam with items like Monitor Lizard.

Build Guide:

• Companion Core Dooley

Launcher Core has an absurdly high ceiling when it comes to speed, allowing it to effeciently Charge powerful scaling items like Ice 9000 or Nitrogen Hammer, while making up for their otherwise slow startup. Launch Pad is another great choice if you have enough Burn scaling.

Build Guide:

• Launcher Core Dooley

Harmadillo is back with the recent revert to Duct Tape. It's a fast looping build that takes full advantage of spammy Shield triggers, then weaponizes it into ridiculous Damage. Shielded enchants allow Bunker to shine, but there are several other iterations, including a Dino variant with Tanky Anky!

Calcinator is a powerful payoff as long as you can invest into it early. Combined with Strength Potion it can apply huge amounts of Burn within a matter of seconds, often winning with just a single activation. Retort functions more or less the same and can be played as an alternative, or alongside Calcinator.

Build Guide:

• Calcinator Mak

Magnus' Femur is Mak's notorious Slow archetype that packs high scaling, sustain, and well-rounded late game potential. Despite experiencing several buffs and nerfs throughout its lifespan, it always finds its way back onto the surface.

Build Guide:

• Magnus' Femur Mak

Poppy Field is a powerful payoff to an aggressive Weapon setup, providing incredible speed and scaling. It fares well against the ever-present Shield builds, while outpacing Burn, unlike the Self-Poison archetype. Goop Flail, Plague Glaive, and Test Subject Alpha are all viable variants.

LavaRoller is arguably the strongest Burn build in The Bazaar. With Parts Picker and some Haste/Charge effects, it's easy to create thousands of Burn within a matter of seconds. It may function as more of a pivot build, but its ceiling is absurd, allowing it to turn a cursed run into an explosive victory.

Build Guide:

• LavaRoller Stelle

Space Laser takes advantage of the incredibly spammy Charge potential from items like Altimeter, Hydraulic Squeezer, and Observatory. Its supporting items are all about creating the fastest loop possible, aiming to one-shot the enemy before they get off the ground.

Build Guide:

• Space Laser Stelle

Pillbuggy is a flexible win condition with huge one-shot potential. Pair it with enough Haste triggers, Crit Chance, and/or Multicast support, and it'll quickly scale well beyond the enemy's Max Health. There's lots of playable variants, including Radar Dome, Launch Tower, Stelle's Workshop, and more.

Note: Jules builds have extremely contextual positioning due to the RNG placement of the Stoves and Coolers. Your mileage may vary.

Jules has countless viable Burn setups. There's the Food spam builds like Grill, Feast, and Gingerbread House, along with the Slow Burn core of Hot Box and Imu. Honestly, there's several more beyond that, allowing plenty of room to work with what you get.

Build Guide:

• Burn Jules

Freeze can be oppressively strong, but does have a bit of whacky positioning issues depending on where the Coolers spawn. However, once assembled, it can effectively lock down opposing boards while dealing a ton of Damage. Pastry Cart and Blender are both great choices.

• Freeze Jules

Fruit Press utilizes spammy low Cooldown Food to scale up its Damage, then crushes them down to ramp up exponentially. It's Jules' very own LavaRoller in a sense, except it heats up in its own unique way. Aim to pickup some base Damage skills to help kickstart its doubling capabilities.
