| Stop Settling for Bad Bread in a City of Craft |

Let's be direct. Kilkenny is a city that is world-famous for craft.2 It is a city of skill and quality. Its very identity is built on rejecting the mass-produced. People come here to see things made by hand. So why are you settling for bad bread? Why are you accepting a pale flimsy loaf from a supermarket? You are in a city of artisans. And you are eating a product of industrial apathy. As suppliers like LGM USA know there is a huge gap between real bread and the imposters. It is time to challenge this. You are eating in a city of craft. It is time to eat like it.
You are being fooled by the "in-store bakery." It is a lie. It is a piece of marketing theater. It is not a bakery. It is a "bake-off station." The "bread" arrives at the supermarket as a frozen puck of dough. It is made in a giant factory hundreds of miles away. It is full of chemicals and preservatives. A low-wage employee simply puts the frozen dough into an oven. That "fresh" smell is an illusion. You are buying a reheated industrial product. You are not buying artisan bread. You are being sold a story. And it is a false one.
The alternative in the plastic bag is even worse. This is not bread. It is a "bread-like product." Pick it up. Read the ingredients. You will find a long list of things you cannot pronounce. Emulsifiers. Dough conditioners. Preservatives. This is a chemical product. It is designed to be soft. It is designed to be cheap. It is designed to sit on a shelf for two weeks without molding. It has no flavor. It has no nutrition. It is a bland sponge. You are paying for air and chemicals. You have been trained to accept this as "bread." It is not.
Now compare these fakes to a real loaf. A loaf from a true Artisan Bakery in Kilkenny. The ingredient list is short. Flour water salt. The process is long. It takes 24 hours. It is made by a baker not an oven operator. This is a person with years of skill. The loaf has a dark crisp crust. It has a chewy open crumb. It has a complex tangy flavor. This is real food. It is honest. It is a product of the same craft philosophy that makes Kilkenny famous. For residents of Kilkenny to accept anything less is a contradiction.
You have a choice. You can continue to eat the lie. You can eat the chemical sponge. You can eat the frozen puck. Or you can choose to support the real craft. You can choose to eat real bread. A product that is as good as the city it is baked in. In a city of makers you should demand food from a maker. It is that simple.
Stop settling for bad bread. You live in a city of quality. Demand quality in your food.
To learn more about what defines a real loaf of bread we recommend you learn more from NOVAKS BAKERY.

| Two Paths to Fatherhood: Voluntary Declaration vs. Court-Ordered Paternity |
|

When a child is born to unmarried parents, the law requires a formal step to establish who the legal father is. This is a critical process that locks in rights and responsibilities. In California, there are two very different paths to this destination: signing a Voluntary Declaration of Paternity (VDP) or obtaining a formal Judgment of Paternity from a court. One is a simple form, the other is a legal process. Understanding the major differences between them is essential. Firms like JOS FAMILY LAW regularly advise clients on which path is the right one for their specific situation.
The first path, the Voluntary Declaration of Paternity, is the most common. This is a simple, one-page form (VDP, or Form CS 909) that is usually presented to parents at the hospital right after the child is born. When both parents sign this form, they are swearing under penalty of perjury that they are the child's legal parents. Once it is filed with the state, the VDP has the same full force and effect as a court order. This path is fast, free, and simple. It is an excellent choice for parents who are 100% in agreement and have absolutely no doubts about the child's paternity.
However, the simplicity of the VDP is also its greatest danger. When a man signs the VDP, he is legally waiving his right to genetic (DNA) testing. If he has even the slightest doubt about whether he is the father, he should not sign this form. It is extremely difficult to undo a VDP. You cannot simply change your mind. You have a very limited time to "rescind" (cancel) it. After that, you must file a complex and expensive motion with the court to set it aside, and you must prove fraud or duress. The VDP is a legal shortcut that removes the key protection of a DNA test.
This brings us to the second path: a formal court action. This is called a "Petition to Establish Parental Relationship." This legal process is required in many situations: if the parents are not in agreement, if one parent is unavailable, or if the father wants the certainty of a DNA test before signing any legal documents. One parent files the petition, and the other parent is served. A paternity lawyer in Orange County is almost always retained to manage this process. If paternity is disputed, the court will order a legally admissible genetic test, removing all doubt.
There is another, massive difference between the two paths. The Voluntary Declaration (VDP) only establishes paternity. It does nothing else. It does not create a custody schedule, and it does not order child support. It just names the father. To get those orders, you still have to file a petition with the court. The court process, on the other hand, is designed to resolve all of these issues at once. The Petition to Establish Parental Relationship allows the court to immediately make orders for child custody, visitation, and child support as soon as the judgment of paternity is entered. It is a comprehensive solution, not just a single step.
The VDP is a simple tool for a very simple, amicable, and certain situation. The formal court process is a complete legal solution designed to provide certainty and resolve the critical issues of custody and support. Choosing the right path is a critical first step.
To understand which path is right for you and to get help with the legal process, contact the professionals at JOS FAMILY LAW.

| MMoexp: Grow a Garden’s Ultimate Pet Powerhouse |
|

In the ever-evolving world of Grow a Garden, new pets constantly reshape the game’s balance, economy, and strategies. But among the latest additions, few creatures have caused as much excitement—and chaos—as the Huge Nightmare Mimic Octopus. Weighing an astonishing 61.25 kilograms, this mutated leviathan stands as one of the most powerful and complex pets in the entire game. Even more impressive? It was created by the Rainbow Elephant, the only creature in the game capable of producing pets of such massive size and Grow a Garden Items.
In this guide, we’ll explore every aspect of the Huge Mimic Octopus—from its unique copy ability and cooldown mechanics, to its best pet combos, mutation synergies, and current trade market value. Whether you’re a veteran collector or a strategic gardener aiming to optimize your lineup, this breakdown will show why the Huge Mimic Octopus is a true game-changer in Grow a Garden.
Origins of the Huge Mimic Octopus
Before diving into the gameplay aspects, it’s worth noting just how extraordinary this creature is. The Rainbow Elephant—a mythical pet with an extremely low hatch rate (about 1 in 10,000)—is the only source capable of producing a Huge Mimic Octopus of this size. The base weight of Rainbow Elephant-created pets starts around 6.1 kg, allowing mutations and growth that push them far beyond the limits of normal breeding.
The result? A 61.25 kg nightmare mutation mimic octopus, the heaviest ever recorded in-game at the time of writing. It’s not only a spectacle to look at but also the strongest utility pet when used strategically.
Skill Overview – Copying Like No Other
The Mimic Octopus has one of the most innovative skills in Grow a Garden: the ability to copy another pet’s ability within your garden at fixed intervals.
Base Cooldown: 20 minutes (standard mimic)
Cooldown at 61 kg (nightmare mutation): 15 seconds (cap)
Cooldown with Medium Toy: Reaches hard cap consistently at 15 seconds
This cooldown scaling is what makes the Huge Mimic Octopus so dangerous. By increasing its weight and mutation rarity, the cooldown shrinks dramatically, allowing the player to chain-copy abilities at near-continuous rates.
However, not all pets can be copied. These include:
Hydra
Green Bean
Sugar Glider
Chinchilla
Rhino
Elephant
Imp
Red Panda
French Fry Ferret
And, as a rule, pets with no cooldown-based abilities are also excluded.
That might sound restrictive, but here’s the genius part:
The Mimic Octopus copies abilities based on its own stats, not the original pet’s stats.
So, if you have a 20 kg rainbow mutation mimic octopus and it copies a 10 kg pet’s skill, the resulting ability scales off the octopus’s higher weight and rarity. This means a Huge Mimic Octopus isn’t just mimicking—it’s enhancing every skill it copies.
Essentially, owning one is like having every pet in the game compressed into a single slot.
Real Performance Tests
Test #1: Fastest Egg Hatching
For this test, we used:
Six Bald Eagles
One 61 kg Mimic Octopus
One 39 kg Mimic Octopus
Medium toys for cooldown cap
Each skill activation from the octopus shortened hatching time by about 15 minutes. When used on 13 Paradise Eggs (each normally taking 6 hours 40 minutes to hatch), the total hatch time was reduced to just 10 minutes.
That’s not just efficient—it’s game-breaking. For shorter-duration eggs (around 4 hours), the hatch time was nearly cut in half. Players aiming to mass-produce rare pets or chase mutation variants can save dozens of hours every week using this setup.
Test #2: Fast Leveling Combo
Next, we tested how effectively the Huge Mimic Octopus could accelerate pet leveling.
Setup:
Multiple French Fry Ferrets
One Peacock
Optional: Rainbow Dilophosaurus
In this configuration, the mimic copies the Peacock’s cooldown reduction ability, which boosts the Ferrets’ level-up frequency. When a Rainbow Dilophosaurus is added, the entire leveling rate doubles.
The result?
A pet can reach Level 100 in just 20 minutes.
For reference, normal progression takes over two hours without boosts. This combo is perfect for new gardens looking to power-level multiple pets without relying on rare consumables or expensive mutation machines.
Test #3: Rapid Nightmare Mutations
Before the release of the Headless Horseman, players relied heavily on the Mutation Machine. Now, that’s no longer necessary.
The Headless Horseman provides:
22% passive mutation boost
12% nightmare mutation rate (giant version)
Level 30 requirement
By copying the Horseman’s ability, the Huge Mimic Octopus can massively accelerate mutation rates. When used in sync with medium toys and high mutation synergy pets, nightmare mutations appear at record speed—making it one of the most efficient mutation farming methods currently available.
Advanced Combos and Synergies
While the previous setups show the octopus’s raw power, its true potential comes from creative synergy.
1. Mutation Boosting
Pair the Huge Mimic Octopus with pets like:
Disco Butterfly
Mutant Beetle
Each of these pets boosts mutation frequency or rarity. When the mimic copies one of these abilities, you get mutations every 15 seconds or faster.
2. Web Acceleration Combo
Place the mimic inside a Giant Spider’s web area. The spider’s passive web aura further reduces cooldowns, sometimes allowing the mimic to trigger every 6 seconds.
Note: Occasionally, the mimic may copy the spider’s web skill instead, but even then, the resulting frequency makes up for it.
3. Balanced Utility Setup
If you want a general-purpose garden setup:
Huge Mimic Octopus (Rainbow Mutation)
Titan Peacock (Cooldown Reduction)
Bald Eagle (Egg Hatching)
Headless Horseman (Mutation Boost)
Rainbow Dilophosaurus (XP Boost)
This combination covers every major system—egg production, leveling, and mutation—while keeping cooldowns constantly cycling.
Trade Value and Market Analysis
Before Rainbow Elephant Update
Before the Rainbow Elephant entered the game, Huge Mimic Octopuses were almost mythical. An 80 kg octopus could easily sell for $1,000 USD or the equivalent of 12 Kitsunes in in-game trade value. The scarcity made it nearly impossible for average players to obtain one.
After Rainbow Elephant Release
Once the Rainbow Elephant was introduced, everything changed. Players could now create heavy pets like the Huge Mimic Octopus directly, skyrocketing supply and dropping prices dramatically.
Currently:
61 kg Huge Mimic Octopus: ~5–6 Kitsunes
80 kg version: still rare, but not worth more than 1 Rainbow Elephant
While the 80 kg version is technically stronger, the performance gap between 60 kg and 80 kg versions is negligible once both use medium toys. Thus, paying extra for a heavier one is not recommended.
Smart traders now prefer keeping their Rainbow Elephant, as its value keeps rising due to rarity, while Mimic Octopus prices continue to fall.
If you already have a normal Elephant, you can still upgrade a smaller Mimic Octopus into a powerful one. Our 39 kg nightmare mutation octopus was created this way and still performs incredibly well. Visually, it also carries the distinct glowing pattern that marks nightmare mutations—a fan-favorite cosmetic.
Why the Huge Mimic Octopus is a Game-Changer
In Grow a Garden, progression is often limited by timers—egg hatching, leveling, and mutation. The Huge Mimic Octopus effectively breaks those limits by accelerating every one of those systems simultaneously.
It’s not just a power pet—it’s a time machine for your garden. Whether you’re grinding for rare mutations, preparing for competitive leaderboard seasons, or just optimizing your pet setup, this creature is a one-stop solution.
Its flexibility is unmatched:
Want faster eggs? Copy a Bald Eagle.
Need quick leveling? Copy a Peacock.
Want more mutations? Copy a Headless Horseman.
Every 15 seconds, the Huge Mimic Octopus becomes a different tool. No other pet in the game comes close to that versatility.
The Future of Pet Meta
The arrival of the Rainbow Elephant and Mimic Octopus synergy has reshaped the Grow a Garden meta. Players are now building entire gardens around cooldown loops, where one pet reduces another’s cooldown, and the mimic copies that ability endlessly. This could push future updates toward cooldown balancing or even new anti-loop mechanics.
Until then, the Huge Mimic Octopus remains one of the strongest investments you can make—especially for those who enjoy discovering efficient combinations and dominating trade markets.
Conclusion
The Huge Nightmare Mimic Octopus is not just another rare pet—it’s the ultimate meta-defining powerhouse of Grow a Garden Items for sale online. Its unmatched versatility, ability to copy and enhance abilities, and synergy with core pets like the Headless Horseman and Rainbow Dilophosaurus make it an essential tool for serious players.
Whether you’re chasing mutations, grinding XP, or building an efficient farm setup, this colossal creature will turn your garden into a powerhouse of production and progression. Just remember: in Grow a Garden, the smartest players don’t just grow plants—they grow power. And nothing embodies that power quite like the Huge Mimic Octopus.

In the ever-evolving world of Path of Exile 2, players are constantly experimenting with new builds to find the perfect combination of speed, damage, and survivability. One build that has been making waves is the Lightning Warp Blood Mage—a setup that combines devastating area-of-effect attacks with impressive single-target damage, capable of obliterating regular enemies and bosses alike in record time. This guide will delve into the mechanics, equipment, skill gems, passives, and gameplay strategies to help you master this electrifying build.
Overview of the Lightning Warp Blood Mage
The Lightning Warp Blood Mage is a high-tempo build designed for fast-paced combat. It excels at clearing standard maps swiftly, making it perfect for league farming and general exploration. Additionally, its high single-target damage allows players to annihilate bosses and POE 2 Currency.
The concept behind this build draws inspiration from older auto-bomber styles, which tried to balance attack and defense but often fell short due to inefficient scaling. This modern version addresses those shortcomings by optimizing equipment, skill gems, and passive nodes, resulting in a build that is both fun and highly effective.
The core idea is simple: use Lightning Warp for mobility and damage while leveraging Arc and Ball Lightning to trigger critical hits and energy generation, all while maintaining excellent survivability through life leech, shields, and other mechanics.
Equipment Recommendations
Equipment selection is crucial for maximizing this build’s potential. Every piece is carefully chosen to balance damage, survivability, and resource management.
Weapon: Wand of Blood
The primary weapon is a Wand of Blood with the Spell Slinger modifier. Key features include:
All Lightning Spell Skills at Level 5
Critical Damage Bonus
Increased Cast Speed
Additional damage modifiers
For runes, equip two that boost all spell skill levels. While three-slot variants can be optimized further, this setup provides a solid foundation for the build.
Helmet: Nightfall Hood
The Nightfall Hood increases maximum life and removes elemental weakness. A rune that provides 0.35% automatic life regeneration per second is highly recommended, enhancing survivability during intense battles.
Focus: Lapis Focus
This focus item allows additional runes, typically two providing 0.35% life regeneration each. Even one rune can be sufficient, depending on playstyle.
Armor
Choose armor with the highest shield value possible. The Blood Mage passive abilities further boost shield strength, which translates into increased life as well.
Amulet
Prioritize amulets that increase spell skill levels, critical damage, cast speed, maximum life, and spirit allocation. Currently, this build uses a total of 61 spirit points from gear, which can be adjusted based on personal preference.
Rings
Focus on cast speed, life, rarity, and strength-related mods. One ring can be a Calandra’s Touch for additional damage, while the other should complement cast speed and stats.
Belt: Imagination
This belt enhances ring effects, further boosting cast speed and rarity.
Gloves
Select gloves that increase maximum life, critical damage, and item modifier effects. Runes should improve life cost efficiency, ideally by around 25–50%, depending on availability.
Boots
Standard life-based boots are ideal. Include movement speed, rarity, strength, increased item effects, and maximum life. These enhance mobility and overall survivability.
Charms
Charms provide bonuses to both offense and defense:
Axe Swing Charm: Increases skill speed by 20% and movement speed by 10% for 4 seconds when triggered.
Freeze Charm: Enhances survivability against elemental damage.
Bear Charm: Offers 20% increased maximum life, 60% increased stun resistance, and 20% reduced incoming damage. Though optional, this is an affordable alternative for maximizing survivability without movement bonuses.
Skill Gem Setup
The Lightning Warp Blood Mage utilizes a combination of skill gems to maximize damage output and efficiency. Key gems include:
Lightning Warp (Level 21): Main mobility skill, triggers critical hits when combined with Arc and Ball Lightning.
Ball Lightning (Level 11): Single-target nuke, used primarily for boss fights.
Arc (Level 21): Consistent damage source for clearing standard enemies.
Curse Gems: Physical and elemental curses to weaken enemies.
Support Gems: Critical Cast, Increased Area of Effect, Cost Reduction, Duration, Multishot, and Energy Conservation gems to fine-tune performance.
Quality and Level Considerations:
The Arc skill uses a level 21 gem for consistent damage output.
Ball Lightning is kept at level 11 to reduce resource cost while still maintaining high damage potential.
Support gems are crucial for optimizing critical strike rates, casting speed, and mana efficiency.
Passive Skill Tree
The passive tree is tailored to support both offense and defense. Key nodes include:
Blood Magic: Essential for sustaining Life Cost-based skills.
Critical Damage Bonuses: Amplifies the damage from critical hits.
Gem Collection Nodes: Increase the effectiveness of socketed gems.
Life and Shield Nodes: Boost overall survivability.
Megalomaniac and Deep Hypnosis: Improve cost efficiency for skills.
Baal Pact Equivalent Nodes: Enhance critical strikes and mana management.
Jewels:
Use jewels to boost maximum life, spell damage, and shield strength.
Opt for life regeneration jewels to maintain sustain during prolonged fights.
Spirit Allocation:
Total spirit used is around 91 points, primarily allocated to critical cast enhancements. Removing spirit from accessories is possible, but may slightly increase vulnerability.
Gameplay and Combat Strategy
The Lightning Warp Blood Mage is designed for speed and precision. Here’s how to maximize effectiveness:
Standard Maps:
Use Arc as the main damage source.
Lightning Warp triggers critical hits automatically, maintaining high DPS.
Support gems ensure energy conservation and casting efficiency.
Boss Fights:
Use Ball Lightning to target bosses.
Manually activate Lightning Warp to capitalize on critical hits and movement.
Spell Slinger can be used as a supplementary damage tool, particularly for resilient enemies.
Mobility:
Lightning Warp allows rapid repositioning.
Arc generates energy, which enables frequent critical Lightning Warps, maintaining consistent pressure on enemies.
Use charms and movement speed bonuses to navigate large maps efficiently.
Survivability:
Shields and passive life regeneration ensure you can withstand enemy attacks.
Bear and Freeze charms reduce incoming damage and crowd control effects.
Prioritize positioning to avoid unnecessary damage from dashes or heavy enemy hits.
Strengths of the Build
Fast Map Clearing: Lightning Warp, combined with Arc and support gems, annihilates mobs with lightning-fast efficiency.
Boss Killing Potential: Single-target skills and critical cast synergy allow instant destruction of tough bosses.
Survivability: Life regeneration, shields, and charms make this build surprisingly resilient.
Flexibility: Adaptable for different scenarios—standard maps, rare mobs, or high-difficulty bosses.
Weaknesses and Considerations
While the Lightning Warp Blood Mage excels in many areas, there are some caveats:
Resource Management: Life-cost-based skills require careful attention to sustain efficiency.
High Gear Dependency: Optimizing the build requires specific equipment, gems, and passives.
Manual Control for Bosses: While automated clearing is strong, boss fights require careful positioning and manual skill use.
Spirit and Gem Prioritization
Critical Cast is essential; it ensures Lightning Warp maintains high damage output.
Ball Lightning levels can be adjusted depending on budget and gem availability.
Support gems should focus on cost reduction, area of effect, and critical chance to maximize efficiency.
Even without all spirits and rare jewels, this build remains powerful. Beginners can start with fewer spirits and gradually optimize as they acquire better gear.
Final Thoughts
The Lightning Warp Blood Mage is arguably one of the most enjoyable and effective builds in PoE2’s 0.3 league for Blood Mage ascendants. Its combination of rapid map clearing, strong single-target damage, and reliable survivability makes it a top-tier choice for both newcomers and veteran players.
Whether you’re farming standard maps, challenging league bosses, or experimenting with different skill gem combinations, this build provides a rewarding and electrifying gameplay experience. Its design encourages strategic positioning, careful resource management, and precise timing, making each encounter engaging and satisfying.
If you’re looking for a build that offers speed, power, and fun, the Lightning Warp Blood Mage should be at the top of your list buy Path of Exile 2 Currency. With the right equipment, gems, and passive setup, you can experience one of the most thrilling Blood Mage builds PoE2 has to offer.
In Summary:
Lightning Warp Blood Mage = Speed + Damage + Survivability
Arc + Lightning Warp = Core damage engine
Ball Lightning = Boss killing tool
Equipment = Critical for maximizing potential
Passives & Jewels = Optimize damage and sustain
Charms = Improve survivability and mobility
Gameplay = Mix automated clearing with manual boss control
For anyone seeking a build that is fun, efficient, and deadly, this Lightning Warp Blood Mage is an excellent choice for PoE2’s current league environment.

| MMoexp:Diablo IV Season 10: The Rise of the Evade Rake Spiritborn Build |
|
Posted by: Anselmrosseti - 11-12-2025, 07:41 AM - Forum: the special abode

 |
Season 10 of Diablo IV has unleashed a monster. Players across Sanctuary are buzzing about the Evade Rake Spiritborn — a build so devastating that it’s topping leaderboards, deleting endgame bosses in seconds, and pushing Pit 138 clears with ease. Whether you’re chasing the thrill of record-breaking DPS or simply want a build that melts everything in your path, this is the meta-defining setup of the season.
This build isn’t just powerful — it’s redefining how players think about synergy, Diablo 4 Gold, and Chaos interactions. At its heart lies one deceptively simple idea: evade and rake. Yet behind that simplicity is a complex engine of multipliers, cooldown resets, and overwhelming critical damage that turns the Spiritborn into a walking apocalypse.
Why the Evade Rake Build Dominates Season 10
Let’s start with the numbers — because that’s what caught the community’s attention first. This build has recorded hundreds of trillions of damage in single hits, even exceeding a thousand trillion during high-end Pit runs. It’s not just theoretical power either. Real runs have clocked Pit 120 clears in under two minutes and Pit 137 boss kills in about eight minutes. Without a single Uber or Mythic item equipped, it’s already cleared 138 and is expected to push even higher.
The beauty of this build lies in its flexibility. There are multiple versions to suit different playstyles:
A full DPS variant for leaderboard pushing.
A tanky variant for safer progression.
A non-Uber variant for players who haven’t hit the late-game loot jackpot yet.
Even the no-Uber version performs absurdly well, capable of clearing high-end content most builds can only dream about.
Core Gameplay Loop: Evade, Rake, Repeat
Despite the power under the hood, the gameplay rotation is refreshingly simple. At its core, the Evade Rake Spiritborn is built around a rhythm of casting Rake, evading, and then casting Rake again.
Every time you evade, Thunder Spike triggers, resetting the cooldown on Rake thanks to the Sepan tech and Chaos perks. This means near-constant uptime — you’re evading, resetting, and raking again in a smooth, unstoppable loop.
With permanent Overpower, guaranteed criticals, and a barrage of AoE explosions, every single Rake hit becomes a miniature nuke. The result is a battlefield littered with one-shot mobs and bosses being erased in seconds.
And while the base rotation is just “rake–evade–rake–evade,” layering in buffs like Harambe, Armor Tight, Counterattack, and Scourge pushes the damage even higher while adding defensive layers. Harambe (yes, that’s its name in-game) also serves as an enemy pull mechanic, grouping mobs together so your Rake can vaporize entire screens.
In short: the build looks chaotic, but it’s controlled chaos. Two buttons drive the core loop — everything else is a buff or utility.
Understanding the Power Behind Rake
Rake is the build’s centerpiece, and the reason it’s so deadly lies in its scaling and interactions. The Back of Power trait makes Rake deal 200x damage to distant enemies, while Combined Strikes ensures it hits multiple times.
The synergy with Unstable Power guarantees every Rake crits, overpowers, and effectively doubles its damage. Stack that with Bran over Brains for another 2.25x multiplier, and you’ve got an exponential chain of overlapping boosts.
Even the resource system plays into this madness. With Rot of Capel, Rake spends all of your resources in one go — but they regenerate so quickly that you’re always ready for the next strike. Resource cost reduction becomes a direct multiplier, turning stats that are usually convenience-based into massive damage boosters.
Gear Breakdown: Building the Beast
Let’s break down what makes this setup tick, starting from the key gear pieces.
1. Helm: Rot of Capel
This is the linchpin of the resource engine. Since Rake is a core skill, stacking “core skill damage,” “maximum resource,” and “resource cost reduction” turns every swing into a double-dipping damage bomb. You want to hit that perfect balance — spend everything, then instantly refill.
2. Amulet: Adaptability
Adaptability interacts with your high resource pool to create another multiplicative layer. Together with the Sepan S effect, which converts core skills into basic skills, you gain both damage and sustain — crucial for endless Rake spam.
3. Harmony of Ebaka
This spirit hall grants access to both Gorilla and Eagle tags, giving huge boosts to multiplicative damage and making enemies permanently vulnerable. Gorilla also provides barrier generation and ensures every skill gains the “gorilla” tag for even more synergy.
4. Hashugini + Harambe
This combo is where the build’s crowd control shines. Harambe drags enemies together while providing a 1.6x multiplier (double against bosses and knockbacked targets), and Hashugini boosts all gorilla skills further. Together, they create the kind of battlefield dominance usually reserved for full party compositions.
5. Fists of Fate
Perhaps the biggest DPS jump in this setup. Fists of Fate bring a 300–360x multiplier, high Lucky Hit chance, and vulnerability uptime. Since the build relies on Vital Strikes, which double your damage against vulnerable enemies, keeping them vulnerable is absolutely essential.
If survivability is an issue, players can switch to the Harlequin Crest — a safer, tankier option with massive cooldown reduction and health bonuses.
6. Weapon and Lucky Hit Mechanics
You’ll want a Polearm for its passive bonus: +30% Lucky Hit chance to make enemies vulnerable. Combine that with the Fists of Fate’s built-in vulnerability triggers, and you’ll rarely face a target that isn’t fully exposed to your damage multipliers.
Spirit Halls and Multipliers
The Spiritborn class thrives on its Spirit Halls — powerful enhancements that shape each playstyle. This build primarily uses:
Gorilla Hall: Adds barriers and converts every ability into a gorilla-tagged skill.
Eagle Hall: Adds another 1.2x multiplier while applying vulnerability.
Stacked with the Harmony of Ebaka, these two turn every button press into a potential screen-wiping event. Together, they amplify both survivability and raw destructive output.
Paragon and Glyph Choices
At higher levels, Paragon boards seal the deal. Here are the standout picks:
Wildfire Glyph: Reduces cooldowns every time you trigger a Lucky Hit with fire damage — essential for maintaining uptime on buffs.
Manurist Glyph: Multiplies resource generation for even faster Rake cycles.
Viscous Shield: Boosts damage while your barrier is active. Requires skillful barrier upkeep through evasion and Harambe buffs.
Revenge Glyph: Adds massive multipliers (up to 25x total) when thorns damage is present — a small but necessary investment in thorns pays huge dividends.
A few passive clusters also deserve mention:
Vital Strikes: The cornerstone of the double-damage mechanic.
Apex & Balance Exertion: Multiplicative bonuses that keep damage scaling out of control.
Untamed Power: Makes Harambe grant Unstoppable, letting you plow through crowd control effects.
The paragon setup alone can make or break your Rake potency, and with perfect tuning, it’s what pushes the build into leaderboard dominance.
Variants: DPS, Tank, and Non-Uber
The Evade Rake Spiritborn can flex between playstyles depending on your gear and comfort level:
1. Full DPS (Leaderboard Build)
This is the monster that’s been clearing Pit 138+. It uses Fists of Fate, Starless Sky, and ultra-optimized Lucky Hit/vulnerability stacking. Every piece of gear has resource cost reduction and critical multipliers.
2. Tanky Setup
Uses Harlequin Crest instead of Fists of Fate for safety, more life, and cooldown consistency. Still clears 135+, but trades a chunk of damage for survivability.
3. Non-Uber / Accessible Setup
For players without top-tier gear, this version skips Uber and Mythic items entirely. It still clears Pit 120+ comfortably — a testament to how fundamentally broken this interaction is.
Scaling and the Path to Perfection
Resource management defines this build’s power curve. The more resource you have, the harder you hit. Aim for 250–300 Vigor through Adaptability, Capel, and Elixirs.
With 5,000 armor, Unyielding Hits can even replace Starless Sky for higher potential scaling, but this requires near-perfect gear rolls and greater effects on armor-based items.
Lucky Hit is another crucial stat — both for damage and for vulnerability uptime. Between Polearm passives, Fists of Fate, and Thunder Spike, you’ll hit near 100% consistency on keeping enemies vulnerable, which means every Rake benefits from the full suite of multipliers.
From Early Game to Endgame
Transitioning into the Evade Rake setup is straightforward. Start the season using the Evade Spiritborn leveling build — a fast, flexible setup perfect for early Chaos farming. Once you’ve unlocked your Chaos Armors (Capel, Sepan S, Ebaka, and Gorilla), transition into Rake.
It’s not recommended to attempt Rake before obtaining these, as you’ll be missing the critical cooldown-reset and Overpower synergies. But once you’ve got them, the gameplay loop transforms instantly into one of the most powerful in the game, cheap Diablo IV Gold.
Final Thoughts: A Meta-Defining Monster
The Evade Rake Spiritborn isn’t just a strong build — it’s the defining build of Diablo IV Season 10. It hits like a truck, moves like lightning, and scales into the stratosphere with surprisingly little gear dependency. Whether you’re a leaderboard grinder or a casual Pit runner, the combination of simplicity, speed, and absurd power makes it one of the most satisfying playstyles Blizzard has ever enabled.
With every evade resetting your cooldowns and every Rake guaranteed to crit and overpower, the gameplay feels like controlled chaos — fast, fluid, and explosively rewarding. It’s a showcase of how deep Diablo IV’s system can get when players push its limits.
So, if you’ve been waiting to pick up a build that can melt everything from elites to Pit bosses while looking stylishly reckless doing it — your time has come. Strap in, Spiritborns. Season 10 belongs to the Evade Rake.
