Diablo Immortal: The Best Survivor's Bane Skills

The Best Survivor's Bane Skills:

 

The image above has the ideal skills to select and level when playing Survivor's Bane. The starting skill for Paladin, Blessed Shield, is one of the best primary skills to use and can be used on characters besides Paladin because it heals you when it returns at its maximum level. In the image you can see Blessed Shield, Skeletal Mage, Command Skeleton, Strafe, Multishot, and Condemn selected. This skill setup is currently recommended as the best load out for Survivor's Bane.

​

S Tier Skills:

 

1. Skeletal Mage - This is the only skill that's recommended in the ideal load out that needs to be unlocked from the achievements section. It's unlocked by leveling two Necromancer skills to their maximum level in a single run. It 's one of the best skills because skeletal mages cast Bone Spirits instead of their normal attack once it's fully leveled. Using Skeletal Mages also lets you benefit from equipment that increases your damage based on how many active summons you have.

2. Strafe - This skill is powerful because it has excellent clear with great single target damage. At maximum level it also drops knife traps which is a minor benefit that damages enemies when they move over them.

3. Condemn - This skill is the best skill for clearing the entire screen once it's at a high level. At its maximum level it makes you invincible while it's charging up which usually lasts for several seconds and it also casts frequently.

4. Blessed Shield - This is the base attack for Crusader that throws a large number of Blessed Shields especially if you get increased projectile count that each heal you when they return to you at its maximum level which helps keep you alive.

​

A Tier Skills:

 

1. Command Skeleton - This skill summons skeleton warriors that deal damage and distract enemies which helps with survival. Once it's at its maximum level you can switch to skeleton archers for much higher damage. This skill is best combined with Skeletal Mages for an army of ranged minions that can clear entire screens together. Command Skeleton also allows you to use rare equipment that increases your damage based on how many summons you have active.

2. Whirlwind - This skill is especially helpful when using the buff that makes you move slower, gives life drain on hit, and makes you take less damage. It also repels nearby enemies and at maximum level it heals you for some of its damage.

3. Multishot - This skill is great for clearing enemies and is more powerful once it's at a high level with more projectiles which can be obtained from gear. At maximum level it can also pierce enemies which further improves its clearing damage.

4. Sentry - Sentry heals you for 5% life per arrow at its maximum level making it a great alternative healing skill.

5. Breath of Heaven - This skill can be used in Survivor's Bane in the place of Blessed Shield for healing. It's also helpful for heals and increased movement speed when you have the Survivor's Bane modifier that greatly lowers your movement speed. Breath of Heaven also damages enemies that enter its area of effect when it's at its maximum level.

​

B Tier Skills:

​

1. Wave of Blood - This skill is a solid filler skill when you can't get the ideal skills from the leveling up process. It shoots a blood projectile away from the character but it's not as powerful as the recommended S Tier and A Tier skills.

2. Vortex - This skill creates a large area of effect vortex that also heals you when you are inside of it at its maximum level.

3. Bone Spear - This is the starter Necromancer skill that becomes more powerful with increased projectiles from rare equipment. It auto-targets nearby enemies, pierces, and deals solid damage which makes it a strong filler skill.

4. Landslide - This medium ranged Druid skill deals solid damage and gives an occasional shield at maximum level.

5. Magic Missile - Another filler skill that can be used to take down bosses much quicker. It single targets a nearby enemy and scales with equipment that increases your projectile count.

​

C Tier Skills:

 

1. Most Melee Skills and Short Range Skills - You will rarely want to choose short range skills in Survivor's Bane because they deal similar damage to ranged skills but only attack up close. This makes killing enemies more difficult in this event because you need to fight them up close with short range skills which sometimes makes you take more damage.

​

Survivor's Bane Tips Guide:

 

1. You should kill every rare mini-boss enemy that appears on the map for equipment upgrades which can majorly increase your damage and survivability. When using summons the increased damage per summon is a major benefit. When using projectile skills you can also look for an increase to the number of projectiles cast by skills. Your chest armor slot is the most important because it increases your maximum life which greatly improves your survivability.​

2. There are typically a large supply of shrines and health pools inside each map. You can optionally make your clearing spot near a health pool if you are in danger of dying during the event. Anytime you get below 30% life you should start looking for a nearby health pool to heal your character so that you survive the run.​

3. Conduit Shrines are lower priority shrines and can be picked up any time you need to increase your clearing speed.​

4. Disintegration shrines can be extremely helpful and can melt rare enemies for equipment, used on bosses to speed up boss encounters, and can be used for clearing normal monsters anytime you are about to be overwhelmed.

​5. Your movement inside Survivor's Bane should mostly be for moving around to pick up nearby experience orbs. It's also okay to take a little damage when picking up experience orbs as long as you are not at low life. There are typically plenty of health pools to use in every Survivor's Bane area that can heal you if you take too much damage.
