Starter Campaign Farmer Build
Quick answer: pick one starter, push it to level 60, and gear it for survival plus repeatable area damage. A single well-built starter beats several half-built carries.
Which Starter Should Farm Campaign?
Turn the starter you are already investing in into your first solo campaign farmer. Splitting resources across several starters delays the first reliable farm, so commit to one.
Kael
Kael is often a strong early campaign carry because of poison damage and repeatable area attacks. Build around his strengths and verify his current skills in-game, because balance can change.
Athel
Athel brings a strong single-target and AoE kit with utility that suits both campaign and early arena. Check current skills before committing scarce books.
Elhain
Elhain deals high AoE damage, which makes her a natural campaign wave clearer. Verify her current kit and how she scales before building around her.
Galek
Galek offers reliable AoE damage for early waves. His suitability depends on balance and your account, so check current community consensus and in-game skills before investing.
Level 60 Priority
Getting your starter to level 60 is usually the right first major goal because grinding XP and gear becomes dramatically easier with a reliable solo farmer. Prioritise the champion you will actually farm with.
Artifact Setup
Equip gear that lets your starter survive waves and deal repeated area damage. Early accounts often use a lifesteal-style set plus speed boots; verify set effects and stat priorities in the current client.
Main Stats
Prioritise the stats your champion scales from. Many champions want damage and speed, but some scale from defense or HP. Never assume every farmer needs attack — check the champion's kit.
Masteries
Masteries add meaningful power. Unlock damage and sustain masteries first, then utility. Verify current mastery names and effects in-game, because they can change between patches.
Campaign Progression
Use the campaign to level your starter and carry food champions. Clear the highest difficulty your account can farm reliably, and revisit stages as your gear improves.
Transition to 12-3 Brutal
Once your starter can solo a brutal stage with three food champions, you have a stable farming loop. 12-3 is a common target, but verify the current best stage for your account.
When to Replace Your Starter Farmer
Replace your starter farmer only when a stronger, more reliable farmer is already built and geared. Do not abandon a working starter to chase a theoretical upgrade, because a stable farm beats a faster one you cannot yet clear.
