Spiritborn is weaker than before, but it is not dead. Pestilence Swarm got nerfed, some speed and damage tools were toned down, and the class no longer looks like the free answer to everything. Still, several Spiritborn builds are strong enough for A-tier endgame.
This Spiritborn mini tier list focuses on the safest builds to play after the nerfs.

🍀 Stinger Spiritborn
Stinger Spiritborn is great if you want a build that starts well and keeps scaling later. Potent Sting gives it strong growth, and the build has enough speed to feel good while farming.
Best for: leveling, scaling damage, fast Spiritborn gameplay.

🍀 Quill Volley Spiritborn
Quill Volley Spiritborn is the safe familiar pick. It is not the loudest Season 14 build, but it works, and that matters after the class got hit by nerfs.
Best for: safe Spiritborn gameplay, farming, players who already know the build.
