Selecting the right build depends on your current progression level and your preferred playstyle. While some setups offer massive burst damage, others provide better survivability or range. Here is a ranking of the most effective builds currently identified by top players.
1. The Strength Meta Build
This is currently the strongest overall build in the game. It uses the Saitama Champion (or alternatives like Gilgamesh, Primal Saiyan, or Jin Mori/Kaiju). Key components include the Tooth Necklace Gear, Ultimate Warrior Title, Legendary Superhuman Transformation, and the Awaken Shadow Monarch special.
2. The Grimoire Build
A powerhouse for raw damage output, this build focuses on the Asta Champion with Executioner. You will need the Loved by Mana Title, Devil Union Durability skill, Devil Wings Gear, and the Anti-Magic Grimoire. It can output massive damage but requires staying close to the target.
3. The Chakra Build
A reliable choice that emphasizes magic-based damage. It typically utilizes Gilgamesh, Gourd Gear, the Nihility Title, and the 100% Transformation. Recommended specials for this setup include Mercy Lago, Mangekyo, or the Tatsumaki special.
4. The Grit Build
Excellent for mid-to-high damage consistency. This build requires the Akaza Champion, Tooth Necklace Gear, Ultimate Warrior Title, a Legendary Superhuman Transformation, and the Compass Special.
5. The Sword Build
A solid entry-level build for high damage. It requires the Gilgamesh Champion, Scout Cape Gear, Division Captain Title, Devil Union Transformation, and the Sunblade Special.
