Build Artistry Through Atlas Inc. Personal Builds (added Penguin7922 And Flora))

Spoiler: What Is Atlas Inc.?

Atlas Inc. is technically a guild, but more accurately a group of class builders. The Atlas discord is also a great place for game mechanics and building advice/knowledge.

So, I asked Atlas Inc. members for their personal builds, not theoretical ones, but ones they themselves used (or in some cases, would use, since some are 1.20 builds). And here’s the result.

My commentary is kinda just my observations, not meant to be taken overly seriously.

What I mean by build artistry: I guess I mean the personal style and purpose of the build in question. The choices the builder makes, whether they lean tanky or offensive, go for health sustain or damage, among many other things. It’s just the things that make building/a build cool.

Spoiler: Wxhlf

Why you use it: I am simply cool and this build is cheap

Commentary:
It’s interesting that Wxhlf’s submission was a melee build, as most of the builders submitted spell builds. The inclusion of Anthracite Ballista is probably part meme (Anthracite Ballista is funny pew pew archer gun), but also a large part utility. The build, notably, leans surprisingly offensive in that it has lowish health sustain, and does not use old keeper’s ring, along with high damage for anthrax gun. All in all, this build suggests a person who appreciates ehp more than health sustain, and values the defensive utility of walkspeed, but also values high dps (but not powder specials)

Why you use it: arguably Az is the only bow compatible with 1.19 eTFA, and i have a spare slayer.

Commentary:
This build is one of the few opportunities allotted to sane people to explore the mind of the insane. This build clearly implies a deranged individual as it includes Az as a weapon. Jokes aside, the build itself is probably a personal build mostly because of the artistry put into it, not necessarily its practical utility (Though, it is definitely usable, with high ehp, ws, and decent damage). The builder seems to appreciate the gimmick of Az and values a gimmick in a build. I am tempted to say that the 1/1 costs and courage powdering of the build suggests a focus on dps over merely looking at the build’s damage, but then I would have to evaluate the build as fast hybrid. This also complicates the builds life sustain as either the builder doesn’t care about life sustain, or plays fast hybrid, and is thus more mentally deranged than my first assessment. Overall, especially if this build is meant to be fast hybrid, it deserves gamer points.

ETW heavy hybrid is such a pogging archetype! *Takes time to collect self.* Anyways, I apologize for my earlier behavior, this is obviously all about that sweet sweet damage, and those delicious gamer points. ETW is a very fun and interesting playstyle.

Spoiler: Druser

@Druser :

https://wynndata.tk/s/t142i8 here's your requested build, it's heavy hybrid Black. I use it cause heavy hybrid is cool and Dawnbreak is underrated.

Commentary:
Another heavy hybrid user. I think heavy hybrid just develops as builders just think of it as “cooler spellsteal,” idk, maybe just me. But, Druser actually made some very interesting choices in this build. First off, the use of anime, and having 2/3 spell costs (unless this is supposed to be using post patch bcata, which is entirely possible). This build assumes average skill, as, assuming you cast 2 spells a second, you’re using 5 mana a second, for a total of 20 mana used over 4 seconds, while only gaining 16 mana over 4 seconds (11 ms + 5 natural mr, but natural mr is kinda e cuz assassin). So the build itself emphasizes chain lightning as a source of sustain, or slow casting speeds as to not use as much mana or even a slower paced playstyle (or I'm very stupid and it's supposed to be 1.20). If its meant for 1.20, the mana is actually pretty poggers. Overall, I think the item choice is the choices of someone concerned with the artistry of the build, using non-meta options (besides cinderchain and atlas/tenuto). Very cool, its amazing what you can do with off-meta choices.

Spoiler: RenZenthio

@RenZenthio :

Class: Warrior
Build Link: https://wynndata.tk/s/cr5sdt (Capricorn, bcata, dhydro)
Why you use it: I think its the most powerful warrior build out there, it has the best balance of tankiness and damage. It’s technically outdone in damage by other mythics, but its tankiness makes up for the very slight damage upperhand the others have. Not to mention that the gimmick is fun and it has some nice quality of life, like walkspeed.

Commentary:
This build shows an emphasis on ehp over health sustain, and an appreciation of tanky playstyle. The inclusion of blue mask also indicates an appreciation of non-diamond armor and gamer points. The spell costs and overall style of the build also indicates a focus on dps as well. The choice to powder rage over dodge also seems to suggest a preference for consistent damage over greater, but inconsistent, damage. (Yes, I did commentary for my own submission…)

Explain this build/Why you use it: comparatively quite mediocre overall but heavy hybrid archer is super cool and this uses multiple items with personal, sentimental value (stinger, contrast, galleon. these items make me :))
it has a side of everything of the build spectrum, main issue is the low ehp


Commentary:
A build much like Druser’s dawnbreak submission, using non-meta items to make something very cool. The inclusion of time rift with reliance on mana steal is also a cool choice since it is probably based on the fact that trift can recast melees, increasing your mana/life sustain. Trift can also recast quakes, not to mention spells, ultimately contributing to a very interesting gimmick build. Also, poggers, an actual use for galleon.

Spoiler: Yraw

@Yraw :

Class: Shaman
Build link: https://wynndata.tk/s/qzedsi
Explain this build/Why you use it: Fast hybrid shaman just has in my opinion best combat flow, and it's a pretty aggressive play-style that benefits from cycling a lot. I just prefer playstyles/builds that combo a lot or are very fast or aggressive in general, ig that reflects some of my hobbies too like cubing where you gotta make a lot of turns really quickly. I think the reason I do like builds like fast hybrid is just because you feel like you're getting more damage in than you really are so you just feel more confident I guess.

Commentary:
Honestly, Yraw’s commentary really explains the build. I guess, if I had anything to add it’d be that fast hybrid as a choice is very interesting. In Wynn, your build is ALL down to preference. Current meta builds aren’t even setup to be highest dps builds (atleast for boss speedruns). Thus, it’s cool to see people who choose playstyles like fast hybrid, because, after all, playing wynn is about having fun, regardless of what you want your build to do.

TWA blur, not much to say, pretty much my fav build due to having that one-hit-ko vibe to it with only 7.5k hp and being agility, without any real HP sustain. The compensation is ofcourse having very high damage and very high walk speed, which pairs up nicely with vanish's speed 5.

Also ofcourse it uses the best item in the game - Leictreach Makani, while not using the Cumulonimbus-intensity slap, and how can you forget the very gaming UMBRAL MAIL.

this is all fake tho, I am a guardian advocate at heart.

Honorable mentions: ETA Blur with Leic, ETW Lower with high +totem cost for uproot totem positioning.

(Customs from top to bottom: BPC, Umbral Mail, Leictreach Makani, Black Catalyst set)

Commentary:
This build feels like the epitome of what assassin playstyle is supposed to be, high burst damage with great mana, and high walkspeed. It’s the kinda build that has a high skill cap, and emphasizes perfect play over actual dps (though dps is probably still decent...cuz Assassin, and high spins), which is very cool to see.

Spoiler: Bonus

Hello RenZenthio, I would like to present my favorite build: https://wynndata.tk/s/1wq5k6

It has everything you would ever want in a build - the inability to move, the inability to kill, the inability to die, and the inability to not play warrior.

I love this build because it represents who I am - I see myself as a guardian, a keeper, a warrior - I will be there for when you need a wall, for I am that wall.

Commentary:
Ooooh, another melee archer build. Very similar to Wxhlf’s build except slightly less dps, and probably ehp but I can’t be bothered to calculate. More life sustain though, which either indicates getting a surplus from being a cluster build, or a focus on life sustain over damage/survivability. Very cool though, also crabs :)

why i use it: my specs are :doom: so im all-in defensive sp, don't worry ab the damage my mythic baseline has me covered. ffwa powdering bc it looks cooler


Commentary:
There was a wanderer in the province of Wynn carrying a bow of 5 hues. Upon him the horrors of the universe swarmed and challenged, attempting to destroy this foe. All their attempts were thwarted, not because of the power of this man’s bow, but because of the sheer fucking tankiness of his armor. Their claws and spells and arrows turned to dust upon hitting his form, and punishment was given in return. It was only when, bedraggled and tired the wanderer sat unchallenged at the top of a mountain that the inevitable heat death of the universe was able to finally put his soul to rest.


For real though, this build gives no fucks about damage, it’s all about that tankiness. And interestingly, it’s one of the few builds in this collection that uses okr. Okr is practically blacklisted in all building, but as Druser point out one time, if we really wanted the strongest builds, okr would be in almost all of them. The dedication to being unkillable truly is respectable, and admittedly astounding. (Also, knowing Qzphs he uses Stinger as an off hand too, so he has lots of ls too). Honestly, I could see myself using a build like this. Tanky builds are very quality of life, not being able to die feels nice. Great for killing silver conures.

Spoiler: Iboju

@Iboju :

Class: Assassin
Build: https://wynndata.tk/s/6uswbx (1.20)
Why:
Weathered is probably one of the most unique weapons in the game due to its accessibility in terms of skill and possibilities.

If you’re just getting into assassin it has quite a low skill floor as well as a safety net to fall back on with its agility in addition to the major id.

Alternatively, It also has a significantly high skill ceiling because of the dps and combo potential offered by the major id, which when used well is able to transform assassin from an all ready very strong class to an absolute monster.

Allow me to elaborate on what i mean by roving assassin giving the user huge dps and combo potential; the major id more specifically allows one to perform many very risky combos consistently, which would normally be nigh-impossible due to having mana drain in vanish. This also synergises greatly with all sorts of perfect-play builds which require quick inputs and consistent gameplay.

Due to the points mentioned above, its survivability, its surprisingly good damage for an air mythic as well as most importantly its incredible major id I see weathered as my favorite weapon and favourite item to build with and use

Commentary:
Honestly, I’m kinda surprised Iboju didn’t submit ETW Cata. Atleast one notable thing about this build is the complete lack of life sustain, the build seems to reward perfect play, which is honestly very much an Iboju thing to do. Also, the bad ele defs indicate a disregard about ele defs in general (an understandable disregard since this isn’t a tank build), though the high health is probably there to keep up the aggressive playstyle to kill whatever he’s attacking before he dies. Overall, interesting submission.

@hppeng :

Class: Warrior
Build link: https://wynndata.tk/s/9koayi
Crafted weapon link: https://wynndata.tk/cr/438093458
Explanation:
This build is a rage warrior build that survive easily against bosses while dishing out massive damage. If you look at the build, you'll notice that the armor and accessories themselves don't give any damage boost at all. (In fact, Gemini gives some negative spell damage!) All of the damage of this build comes from the earth armor powder special. When applied to all four pieces of armor, rage boosts your earth damage by 4% for every 1% health you have missing, so the trick with this build is to never play at full health. The 340% damage boost added in wynndata is based off playing at 15% health, which is 2000hp in this build. When you factor in defense and agility, 2000hp + defense + agility + warrior boosts becomes around 24k EHP, which isn't exactly super tanky but is more than enough to take out bosses in Legendary Island.

The performance and character of this build is linked to how good (or bad) your health regen rolls are. My primary set of gear comes out to having about -19 health regen, which is totally fine - thanks to natural health regen, this means your health will stabilize at around 2.5k. Playing at such low health (in the 10%-20% max hp range) allows you to get a good amount of sustain from natural health regen, which is usually ignored by endgame wynncraft players - I get around 80 health regen when I'm at 1000 health, which is more than enough to heal from the eye's spells and leads to fairly stable gameplay even when my health is in the 3-digit range!

Tune the health regen as you see fit - gigabyte can be swapped in for diamond fusion necklace to get more health regen if you need it at the cost of a bit of -air defense. (Also, I would recommend suppression over moon pool circlet, but I don't own a good enough suppression )

For a mythicless and more tank-oriented approach, do the following swaps:
Gemini -> Dark Shroud
Slayer -> Silt of the Seafloor
Moon pool circlet -> Summa
Draoi fair -> Archaic
Prowess -> Dragon's Eye Bracelet

The only real problem with the mythicless approach is that you will find that you have way too much health regen and may not get as good damage consistently as a result. The total health is also significantly lower, and while the agility is higher (so EHP is about the same) this means you'll probably need to play in 3 shot range instead of 4 shot range to get the same damage boost. The enhanced health regen and high defense probably makes this a pretty cool panic zealot build, though.

Off hand: Earth powdered Braker (for use on anything except bosses, to conserve durability), and Blade of Purity / Tidebinder, for mana regen.

Why do I like this build:
- Its very flexible. Kind of a "choose your difficulty level" type thing: The build is so tanky that you can use your health pool as a buffer - I usually enter cybel at higher health because I'm scared, while I'll run through bronze LI at 2k health or lower. You can also tune the build itself by adjusting the health regen to match your skill level.
- Its more exciting than a face tank.
- Its relatively inexpensive. The spear recipe uses basically junk ingredients, the only mythic is slayer (or even no mythic for the mythicless option). Powders are a bit expensive though
- Measured 44k dps at 15% health against dummies. 1/1 spellcost and 2/4 (3/4 with suppression) mana regen means you get almost seamless spell casting.
- Healthy amount of walk speed.
- Unique experience of running into bosses to drop health.
- Funny interactions when you're playing with a mage and request not to get healed.

Reasons not to play this build:
- Probably not great in raids.
- Not a great team player. (tbh 8k uppercut and superspam isn't even that bad, considering how tanky you are at full health.)

Commentary:
I mean...I don’t think I’m going to do better than hppeng in explaining this one. I would like to add that natural hpr is indeed strong in rage abuse builds, lol, and agree that rage abuse builds are not a team player. I enjoy rage abuse as well.

Spoiler: Highmore

@Highmore :

Class: Shaman
Build link: https://wynndata.tk/s/03r5x7
Why you use it: Defensive utility of TWFA, deye allows for a good 3 aura cycle, super slow for really fast powder charge without effecting fast spam

Commentary:
A beast of a build designed purely for boss dps. Good mana/mana costs means nearly infinite spell casting and a higher skill cap than the average build. The high ehp of the build allows for face tanking and for constant dps upkeep, and for proper curse utilization to further bring up dps. The lower base aura damage indicates a focus on dps rather than singe spell damage. I’m honestly surprised the elemental defenses are as bad as they are for a face tank build (they’re not that bad, just worse than I remembered), as face tank builds need to take punishment from eye meteors, and those defenses can be detrimental to that (getting hit for an extra 2k ignoring def), but the decent agi and health act as a buffer to the ele defs. Overall one of my favorite build concepts, if not my favorite.

pretty much the tankier answer to Wxhlf's more offensive build. The builder obviously cares about life sustain and ehp. The damage of the build is slightly lacking, but the emhpasis is squarely put on being unkillable.

Spoiler: Treebeard68

@Treebeard68 :

Class: Warrior
Build link: https://wynndata.tk/s/d1nrj0
Why you use it: Warrior is absolutely my favourite class. Spellspam MR warrior is really engaging to me and encourages me to learn boss spell combos, proper predicting of them, and proper dodging of them, which is one of the most fun parts about Wynn's bosses for me. If you can get extremely good at it, warrior can feel actually rewarding for once. It arguably requires the most reaction timing of all the classes while also forcing you to be way more engaged. I've gotten to a point where I can beat the 1.20 Dr. Legendary and The Eye without pots or any sustain as warrior.

Now, onto the actual build, this thing is no joke. 25k uppercuts is nearing ETW levels of damage with Thrundacrack, while having 10k HP and 57 defense Keep in mind, 10k HP translates to much more effective HP due to the 57 defense and class base defense (war scream included, because you're always going to have the buffs active). Not only does it get 25k uppercuts, but it also gets 1/1/1/1 costs in 1.20 because of the 9 mana cost uppercut buff. And, while the 6 MR may look very small and make you think how it manages to even work, it is actually perfect sustain for warrior with 1/1/1/1 costs. I've used 1/1/1/1 costs and 6 MR for months and I have never lost mana after regen kicks in, it always puts me at full mana. The only threats to the mana this build has is repeated casts (which aren't even the end of the world) and losing mana to sprint (which is relatively easy to avoid). It also has pretty nice elemental defenses I guess.

This build is not at all for amateurs. It has absolutely no realistic sustain, and requires you to make sure to not accidentally melee mobs. And keep in mind, spellspam warrior is already very difficult to play well on its own without good sustain. However, the build is still inherently tanky, as it has 57 defense and by being warrior it's already quite tanky. It's also not a bad idea to bring 1 or 2 HP potions in this build (I do, for a fact). While HP potions have gained quite an unfair reputation over the years for being very abusable and being easy to use, they are actually pretty reasonable as long as you limit your use of them. They are actually an important part of gameplay, especially if you have no sustain. (Except for SP pots. SP pots are absolutely overpowered but if you gotta use them I don't have anything against you.)

Commentary:
A build perfect for a high skill player, and one that rewards perfect play. Your goal with this build is to not get hit, and actually dodge attacks, something that takes a lot of skill as warrior (Especially since, while the build has non-trivial ehp, it is certainly not a tank build). The use of hp pots is an interesting choice, probably one made partly because TWF and ETW are almost exclusively lifesteal archetypes and stealing procs on warrior are...not fun, but its also partly due to sticking to a playstyle that is rewarded by perfect play. Hp pots are also interesting because they take away from your gamer points usually, something Tree is not immune to as he has defended himself on several occasions on the Atlas discord for using hp pots, though he is ETW man so he gets a break. The mana is also suggestive of a high skill cap since average cast speeds would require 3mr for 1/1 costs, but Tree certainly casts more than 2 spells a second, and thus needs more than 3mr.

Spoiler: Muchwag

@Muchwag :

https://wynndata.tk/s/sa4lvg
For my own personal build I opted for pulling back on damage in favor of maximum sustainability. I play by chaining vanishes with mana steal to stay almost permanently invisible, only stopping to unleash a burst of spells. To top it off with an ungodly amount life steal, any scratch can be healed by my next hit. I am yet to find something this build cannot no-pot solo, 22ks, LI, EO, you name it.

Commentary:
This build makes a lot of interesting choices, for one, it uses Sitis. Sitis is rarely used on Assassin, I'd assume Fate's Shear usually takes the place it inhabits, but Black and Blur are the meta options. Secondly, the build prioritizes life sustain over actual ehp, which is rare to see. Most of the time people either build tank leaning or offensive leaning, meta-wise, this leans much more defensive, as meta assassin builds only have around 500 lifesteal. Though the build does not use chain lightning so this might be compensation, or it could be an uncharacteristic focus on dps over big numbers. The mana also suggests either a high skill cap, as 1/2 costs requires only 7 mana with average skill, or is an expression of mana conservation since Muchwag expressed a desire to stay eternally in vanish.

As a sidenote: A surprisingly large number of Atlas members seem to be not very concerned with life sustain, which is very interesting, as I personally am very concerned with it.

Build Link: https://wynndata.tk/s/70r248
Why you use it: This is an objectively bad build, but I made it to just abuse the hell out of endurance to spite Iboju. Damage increases to about 18k after just a little bit non-consensual hugging with whatever enemies are in front of you, and it's pretty hard to die with this build because it's mage and it's monster. Hysteria is there because while there's like 5 other better boots I found a good one and it's also a very epic hipster choice.

Commentary:
Honestly, I wouldn't even say this build is objectively bad, just sub-optimal. The user obviously values tankiness over damage (monster builds can hit as high as 16.5k meteors), and likes the gamer points of using non-meta items. The builder also seems to not care about ele defs, which is odd to see in a tank build, possibly a relic of before we knew ele defs ignored defense. The high heal cost also seems to suggest that the user does not feel they are going to need to heal. Overall, I approve, it probably feels nice to use because it's different and special, I know when I use off-meta builds I feel good about them.

Why you use it: I would send one of my heavy hybrid or gimmicky builds but plenty of other builds on the thread already highlight the use of unconventional play styles and non-meta items (love galleon) so I’d rather use my spot to showcase my EW(a) gma build with crafteds. Many people reject crafteds in class building but I think this build highlights how crafteds can both be used as custom patches to issues a build has (e.g. hp sustain, mana sustain, int thresholds, etc.), as well as just amplify the damage or tankiness a build already has. I also like gma’s encouragement of high risk high reward playstyle, especially if you let yourself get down to 1hp for rage and rely solely on 70 agi and your own positioning to survive. I’d rank this up there with etw cata on the list of builds with the “kill it before it can kill you” mentality. (CIs are nighthawk, black catalyst set, grandmother)

Commentary:
Very interesting build. Definitely damage hungry, but with actually good mana. Really showcases the power of crafteds. It's kinda funny, that's why I think crafteds, like okr and virtuoso are kind of blacklisted by class builders, anything overly strong usually takes away from the perceived "artistry" of the build. That being said, Deco's submission shows that powerful items have an artistry all of their own, making a powerful build can be fun and rewarding.

Hmm, this is stretching my original goal in this, since I don't know if the panic zealot relik is out yet or if we know it's major ID, but it's a cool build nonetheless. Very interesting build, focusing on totem cycling instead of uproot cycling, a focus on high EHP, with less of an emphasis on damage, though it still does respectable damage, especially with the spammability. Ms Shaman is an interesting choice, it seems like a focus on high dps. The build also gets gamer points for being TFA but very non-standard.

Why you use it:
Morph is very simple and it fits well into just playing the game - it's common and good for grinding boss altars and xp.

For actual pve: Morph olily doesn't need to put any sp into int to reach 100% up time with arrow storm (with storm bomb cycling) which means you can get 185 worth of defensive sp. With 115 def and 70 agi you can reach 67270 ehp and 1550 ehpr/4 (with max hpr ids). In addition to this, it also gets 9.7k average bombs which ispretty fantastic for such a tanky build.

Morph is fine for all classes but archer definitely makes the best case for it.

Commentary:
So...you might've guessed before opening the spoiler, but yeah, it's morph olily. When I first heard of Penguin recommending morph I saw it as a spiritual attack on the idea of class building, but after watching his speedruns on his channel I was baffled by the viability of morph (I still wouldn't be caught dead using it 100+ though unless I was grinding). His speedruns and this build kind of highlight the difference between speedrunning builds and "perfect play" builds. Morph is so viable simply because of it's tankiness (and Olily being busted), Penguin's "build" gets 67k archer EHP, whereas my attempts to create a TWF and Penta tank archer, the tankiest I could get was 40k ehp, even EWF was disappointing, with only 30k (though I didn't do craz experimentation) both while still getting decent damage. Point is, Penguin completely changed my view on morph, it still sucks cuz it's the most boring build in the universe, but it's interesting what can be gleaned from it.

Overall reflection:
It was cool to see all the different builds I got. A few constants I found, almost all the builders had 1.20 in mind when making their build, they also built quality of life things into their builds, and usually used something they probably would not recommend to the average player requesting a build. My favorite builds were the ones that were pretty far off meta, but still performed really quite well.

Of course the only Rainbow build involves Freedom(Rainbow has bow in it after all) though RIP to it somewhat due to the Grookwarts items and Old Keeper's Ring getting nerfed. No surprise there's 1 rainbow build, it's a pain in the rear to make a good one comparable to others. I suspect a few builds in their current form will be rendered semiunuseable next update but that shouldn't be too much of a problem for you guys.

 

@RenZenthio can I post a mage

i swear it qualifies for wackiness, 68 int 1/1 eee

these numbers make me sad

 

No morph appreciation, so I'll do it myself.

Hey, I'm just here to tell you all about why the Morph Set is arguably the best armor set in all of Wynncraft. First of all, you get at least 70 skill points in both agility and defense, which is far more survivability than most mainstream builds can claim to have. Some other perks of the Morph Set are its 6/4 mana regen, very high health (13.5k), and 110% loot and XP bonus. The loot and XP bonus are extremely helpful, as it gives morph a use in XP grinding, such as Glowbulb Cave parties and CUR parties. It can also be used during lootrunning. These uses are further complemented by the set's high survivability, making it the best choice for cost-effective grinding. It also comes with -1 cost in every spell and a minimum of 70 intelligence, meaning that even the most costly spells, like Aura, are only 3 mana. Other builds without reduced spell costs would spec at least 94 skill points into intelligence to achieve the same effect, while with Morph you only need to spec 31 skill points into intelligence. Thats a 67% decrease! Finally, the most valuable trait of the Morph Set is its low cost. Morph Sets can be acquired for as little as 1LE for the entire set! Other builds need several LE for a single item, or even stacks of LE if they are using mythics! I hope that the information I have brought here today has inspired you to use the Morph Set on your next class, or to use it when you get to level 100. Thank you for reading.

I know, I was messing around with it a bit to like the following. I mostly replaced the rings with Black Catalyst and the Necklace with contrast, the helmet varies.
