There are so many different options when it comes to creating your builds in Idle Boss Rush that it may take a while before you find an ideal option for your playstyle. This guide will help you save some time and provide you with the five best builds in the game that focus not only on increasing your damage but also boosting your divine gem farming speed. Here they are:
- Frosty Trolls Build
- Poison Stacks Build
- Meteor Birds Build
- Overpowered Spears Build
- Speed Farm Build
Frosty Trolls Build
If you’re looking for a build that will allow you to quickly kill bosses and finish the Arena on Gold, then this build will get you there in no time. This is by far one of the best builds for finishing the game very fast and with little effort. Just be sure to combine Rain and Freeze meteorites to boost the damage to its maximum, which should also increase the chance of a better loot dropping.
| Elements | Items |
|---|---|
| Magic | • Ice Whip • Crystal Ring |
| Economy | • Snout Brooch • Flint Shield • Moonstone Ring • Ruff |
| Units | • Trolls • Freeze • Bounce |
Poison Stacks Build
Here’s a much more complicated build for players who want to stack up an infinite amount of poison effect using the Toxic Tongue and Toxic Bath Salts combo. This build is also highly farmable, although it isn’t as fast as the Frosty Trolls, so if you’re looking to increase the speed in the Arena, then be sure to switch Rigged Dice for Flint Shield.
| Elements | Items |
|---|---|
| Magic | • Crystal Ring • Toxic Bath Salts • Altering Clock • Cursed Scroll • Cloudborn Egg |
| Economy | • Ghost Coat • Rigged Dice • Ruff • Dowsing Rods |
| Units | • Farm • Toads • Birds • Ballista (Poison) • Celestial Bastion |
Meteor Birds Build
Birds can deliver extreme levels of critical damage output when spamming meteors, so this build has a very narrow focus when it comes to damage. It’s not perfect and clears everything like the two builds mentioned above, but it has an extremely fast clear time, definitely making it one of the best builds in the game.
| Elements | Items |
|---|---|
| Military | • Meteor Hammer • Zephyr Fan |
| Economy | • Snout Brooch • Moonstone Ring • Flint Shield • Dowsing Rods • Ruff |
| Units | • Farm • Birds • Ballista |
Overpowered Spears Build
In case you didn’t know, but Spears gain a massive damage boost from Heart magic when stacking up as much poison as possible. This build can generate as many as 10,000 spears using such powerful generators as Ruff and Scythe. Before you generate spears, you can use Warriors to stack up poison and deal massive damage to bosses once the Spears land.
| Elements | Items |
|---|---|
| Magic | • Tooth Amulet • Crystal Ring • Cursed Scroll • Heart |
| Economy | • Snout Brooch • Moonstone Ring • Scythe • Ruff • Rigged Dice |
| Units | • Farm • Warriors • Toads • Ballista (Poison) • Celestial Bastion |
Speed Farm Build
Lastly, here’s the build that will help you quickly farm lots of divine gems. Note that you’ll have to unlock Alchemist Level 4 and Marketplace Level 4 to be able to trade your divine gems as fast as possible. You’ll also have to upgrade your Town Hall to maximum and invest money in at least 100-110 citizens. Once you were able to unlock both the Alchemist and Marketplace, open all the available chests and reset the run to farm even more gems this way.
