The rule that outranks every build: kit budgeting

Mistfall Hunter is full-loot — whatever you wear into the ruins, you can lose. So every real build has two versions:

  • Farm kit: gear you genuinely don’t mind losing. Most of your runs.
  • Push kit: your good setup, worn when the run’s purpose justifies it.

The fastest way to quit this genre is running your best gear every raid and donating it to a Shadowstrix by Tuesday. Budget like a pirate, not a paladin — the economy guide covers what to sell and what to bank.

How we verify builds

Skill trees and exact numbers are being confirmed in-game post-launch patch by patch. Where a specific skill string isn’t verified yet, the build page says so explicitly instead of inventing one — the direction, weapon path and priorities above are stable; the fine print updates.
