⚡️ Lightning Spear Amazon Huntress Build Guide

The Lightning Spear Huntress is an endgame-capable build centered around massive screen-clearing potential and smooth, fast-paced gameplay. It’s especially great if you like flashy effects, high crits, and not spamming multiple buttons to win.

💬 “If you liked Twister, this is a natural next step—plus, it can handle T15s with barely any gear.”

🎮 Playstyle

Map Clearing – Easy & Flashy

• Main Skill: Lightning Spear
• Mechanic: Move around to build Vault charges (up to 30), then cast Lightning Spear to unleash destruction.
• Important Tip: Don’t spam the skill—move between casts to get the full 30-stack effect for maximum damage.

Bossing – Focused & Strategic

• Use Sniper Mark on the boss.
• Spam Storm Lance. When you crit with it, it consumes Sniper Mark and auto-detonates the next Lance for huge damage.
• Reapply Sniper Mark and repeat.
• Optional: You can just use Lightning Spear + Sniper Mark for bosses if you prefer a simpler loop—just expect a damage drop.

🔋 Leveling Tips

You can level as Lightning Spear, but it doesn’t feel amazing until later. Consider leveling with Twister, then transition.

• Early Passive Focus: Accuracy + Elemental Damage
• Priority Nodes: Head toward Spear clusters and Electrocution nodes
• Key Milestones:
  • Combat Frenzy passive (Frenzy charge on freeze/electrocute/pin every 4.4s)
  • Koko’s Current Gloves for reliable electrocution

🆕 A skill called “Strike” might help with charge generation soon!

🔚 Endgame Power (T15 Capable)

• Clears hardest content in the game.
• Very low investment: under 3 Divines.
• Didn’t even require a 6-link or 4th ascendancy to get there.

🛡️ Gear Priorities

🗡️ Weapon

• High accuracy

• Sealass spear base is best-in-slot

🧤 Gloves

• Koko’s Current Jeweled Gloves – borderline mandatory
  • Enables electrocution to trigger frenzy generation

🛡️ Shield

• Unique with double accuracy rating is great, but rare
• A solid rare shield will do just fine

🪖 Helmet, Armor, Boots

• Evasion or hybrid ES/Evasion
• Prioritize:
  • Life
  • Resistances
  • Spirit (on body)
  • Movement Speed (on boots)

💍 Rings & Amulet

• Look for:
  • Flat lightning/physical damage
  • Accuracy
  • Crit chance
  • Projectile skills
  • Life and resists
  • Dexterity!

💡 This build is attribute-heavy – don’t neglect Dex, Int, and Strength on gear!

🏹 Amazon Huntress Ascendancy

1. Overcap Crit via Accuracy:
   Crit chance can exceed 100%, and ¼ of excess accuracy turns into more crit chance. Stack that accuracy!
2. Accuracy = Flat Physical Damage
3. Elemental Infusion – boosts elemental damage
4. Predatory Instinct – better than the alternate node on the same tree

🌲 Passive Tree Guide

• Start with Accuracy, Elemental, and Dex nodes
• Move into:
  • Spear Nodes – amazing boosts to projectiles, crits, and attack speed
  • Falcon Dive – attack speed per accuracy
  • Herald Buffs – synergy with Herald of Thunder
  • Crit + Charge Nodes
  • Lightning Penetration
  • Eventually, add defensive layers like block (aim for ~72–73%)

🧠 Tips & Tricks

• Always move between casts to charge up Vault!

• Stack accuracy like crazy—crit and damage scale hard with it
• Practice your Sniper Mark + Storm Lance rotation for bosses
• Struggling with charges? Mark trash mobs to trigger frenzy gain
• Consider Tame Beast as your companion for smoother utility
• Test “Cast on Shock” + Sniper Mark setups carefully (watch mana cost)
