Hey @CleverName would you be willing to test this build?  I'm asking because I think StormWeaver would do a nice job adding quite a bite.  Or maybe tell me why you wouldn't use it?

I can test it briefly during 1v1, but I can tell you right now that it will struggle against a good amount of physicals and damage energies due to its low hp/resists

How would you improve it?  Or is Bright Roar + Storm Weaver just not going to work?

its ok, but dual brightroar is just better

also @CleverName will you share the new heat meta build with claw?

Ok, my point to replacing one bright roar with storm weaver is that if you get someone energy broken, storm weaver is going to hit VERY hard.

In this thread, I’ll post what I believe to be some of the best of the best meta builds. Everyone is welcome to post and debate meta builds.

METAMost Effective Tactics Available (ie. what's the best build in game to help you climb the ladder in arena). I've excluded some "popular" builds that aren't really "meta" (builds that struggle to maintain Rank 1 full stars). The "best" builds are of my own opinion from arena testing.

Note this isn’t a build help thread. If you need build help, please go there. 

Best Build in Game:
“Best Heat”

@CleverName

I tried to make a build with archimonde, I tried it in WU against your best phys and best heat build and it consistently won.

 

Here it is, do you think it would work?

I was wondering why would you equip the regular heat protector and the physical fortress instead of the heat fortress and physical protector, since with my option you gain resistance and lose nothing?

I literally pulled an MPV from r3 box, and from the other r3 box I opened, I puleld plat fortress, so its holy sry whiteout

I mean it looks interesting and yes maybe it can beat the best builds in game (although, I don't think someone was playing it correctly). I think it would work fine in arena, just have a higher loss rate to physicals and heat builds though (vs. best physical). Against energy, probably same.

Yeah can confirm the build doesn't work well. brightroar + storm weaver just doesn't work, it needs to be brightroar + brightroar or brightroar + lightning cutter. But in general the HP is way too low on 2.5khp

Thanks, I appreciate you even being willing to test it.

What about this build?

I think 2 resist drainers is unnecessary - 1 really is the max. With 2, you waste 2 hits shooting them off (versus doing heat damage) and you lose hp twice. I think only having 1 is probably best build in game atm; I’m still figuring out whether the drainer version is better than non drainer version, but I’m leaning yes.

just curious, when you update the meta builds in this best current meta builds, what happen to the previous meta?

Maybe you should have a thread of former meta since new parts change often the layout of the game. Maybe players with limited parts can look after and help them to do some not having enough to make current. Maybe here all is there but just wondering if you have something already in place that I do not know in this new forum. 🤔

Yeah that's a really good idea and something I actually thought about a few times before deleting the old builds.

After another thought, I think you're right. I'll go ahead and make a thread on "former meta builds" or something similar which will basically be a place where we can dump prior meta builds (that would still be good in future, although not "meta")

That sounds good. It might help those guys trying to move up. Can be all kind of old metas way back and can help lower rankers to get some ideas with their limited inventory and can't figure out even having some basic parts for it. Kudos. 👍

I see you playing a double drainer double brightroar build, any reason you are playing dual brightroar and not something more like this:

Heat - Windigo hugger is better. Plus that build is weak to energy, that's why you need basalt polisher.

Physical - It's not bad, but it's low hp with way too much backfire to be meta imo.
