Best Stonekin build (Patch 0.1.4)

The current best Stonekin build is called Stonekin Hearth Architect. It focuses on the talents that scale best with Hearth level 8+ and works in both solo and 6-player co-op.

Talent priority

1. Row 1 — main stat talent: +10% Defender / Builder damage. Take this first.
2. Row 2 — signature enhancement: Reduces Anvil of Roots cooldown by 2 seconds.
3. Row 3 — Hearth bonus talent: +15% Hearth build speed and +5% Hearth level cap.
4. Row 4 — utility talent: Reduces mana cost of all spells by 10%.
5. Row 5 — ultimate passive: Unlocks at Coven rank 5. Build-defining.

Gear priority

For Stonekin you want gear that boosts Spirit Power and Hearth bonus. Look for the "Woven Mantle" set (drops from Bog Witch on Hard mode) and the "Brine Pearl Ring" (crafted at Hearth level 6).

How to play Stonekin in solo

In solo play, Stonekin is a solid choice with clear trade-offs. The opening combo is: cast Anvil of Roots → weave in your basic attack for 4 seconds → cast again. Rinse and repeat, using your broom to reposition when your mana drops below 30%.

How to play Stonekin in co-op

In a 6-player coven, Stonekin fits into the standard defender / builder slot. Pair Stonekin with one Threadmaiden (for Familiar damage buff) and at least one Mirewarden (for emergency healing).
