Rift Solo Builds - Another Option For Rift Play!

By Chad Siemer

There are near unlimited options when looking for Rift Solo builds; you only need to remember that within each class, there are easily souls that excel at solo game play and therefore are more than adequate to hold their own in any setting when teamwork is not required. It will be too exhausting to try to list all Rift Solo builds possible from all classes. Instead, we'll settle with giving a few examples on Rift solo builds to show the important characteristics that make Rift solo builds special and formidable.

Starting with the Warrior class, solo builds should have a good combination of damage dealing coupled with high defense or at least an ability to heal oneself when necessary. With Warriors, this is possible by using combinations like Beastmaster-Champion-Warlord, Champion-Beastmaster-Riftblade, Champion-Paragon-Riftblade. The Champion is the primary anchor for offensive purposes possessing many attributes to deal heavy and quick damage in a mob or solo setting. The other souls provide defensive or healing attributes to balance the Champion's inherent vulnerability to attack. The Paragon soul excels in this while the Riftblade can take care of the healing. You can play around the points allocation to figure out a setup that will work for your specific purpose.

For the Cleric class, there are also a variety of combinations that are worth exploring for Rift solo builds. A good guideline is to pick souls that deal ranged or melee DPS. Ranged souls include the Inquisitor with a pairing of Warden and Purifier; the last two souls give you ability for HoT (healing over time) and respectable damage absorption to minimize criticla hits. The Inquisitor soul excels at DoTs (damage over time) or dealing heavy-handed damage to a mob or one-on-one setting.

For Mages, Necromancers are an excellent base soul for solo purposes. The Necromancer's pet takes care of all the damage deals while health and mana regeneration present no issues for Necromancers. They are also fast and efficient which allows for quick leveling without having to spend too much time on quests or killing monsters. You can pair the Necromancer with Elementalist and Warlock or Chloromancer for damage mitigation although the Necromancer can hold its own against most enemies.

From the Rogue class, Bladedancer seems to be the logical soul of choice. You can boost the damage deal further by adding the Bard soul for self-healing and the Ranger soul for pet summoning which gives you almost unlimited battle options. You can essentially adapt to any in-game scenario and can play close or ranged combat as required.

There are other Rift solo builds of interest that you can check out simply by re-specking your character in between quests. See what works best and use these combinations to create a formidable character that is sure to wreak havoc on the Planes of Telara.
