Spiderman 2.1 Build



I have been having a ton of fun lately playing Spiderman. This is an insane Melee & Area Movement based DPS build with high health and spirit regen. A very fast paced build, the Artifacts and Medallion here are very important!

Powers to max:

Spidey Pummel - Hard hitting spammable ability for when you're out of Spirit. Which doesn't happen often with this build. Sometimes it's just fun to hit things, but, don't hurt Spidey's fists!

Web Wrecking Ball - Nice AOE damage ability.

Web Spray - Causes 10% Vulnerability and Slows both Attack and Move speed of targets.

Spider Sense - Huge Dodge Rating with Projectile Evasion that also causes you to do decent damage to your targets when you Dodge!

Leaping Assault - Heavy hitting AOE attack with a knockdown effect. Low spirit cost!



One-Point Wonders:


Webswing Attack - Decent damage attack with a stun effect, that also gives you Crowd Control Immunity for a short time.

Amazing Smash - Heavy base damage AOE attack with an Immobilize effect. I only put one point in here originally due to it's 25s cooldown. It hits very hard but if you can't use it more often by adding points to it, I feel you're better off spending your points elsewhere.

Corrosive Web Fluid - Adds a Heavy DOT effect and some Damage Rating to your web powers. With one point in it, it is more than enough to clear trash. You can set down your Web Spray and move on to another group, then just go back and pick up your loot.

Web Zipline - Decent Damage Movement attack with a knockdown effect that also adds to your attack and move speed for a short duration when used.

Web Swinging - Basic Movement ability, used to get around faster.

Web Shield - Passively adds to Defense, when Used it adds more Defense, Projectile Deflection and Regenerates Health. Excellent addition to this builds survivability!

Infuriating Humor - Adds a 10% weaken effect to targets that attack you.


I put 10 points each into the next two Skills to help boost DPS a bit more:

Spider to the Fly - Nice Damage, Critical and Brutal Strike Rating buff.

Superior Agility - Adds Damage Rating versus Targets that are attacking you (see the synergy here with Infuriating Humor), also adds Tenacity and Attack / Move speed.

Hotbar Setup:

First, I need to say that I don't use the LMB for ANYTHING. Whether it's because of my current mouse, or my oldschool playstyle, I just find it awkward to use. So here is my key setup. But hopefully this gives you a better over-all view of how I use the build.

LMB - BLANK
A - Web Zipline
S - Amazing Smash
D - Web Spray
Q - Maximum Spider
E - Leaping Assault
Z - Web Shield
RMB 1 - Spidey Pummel
RMB 2 - Web Wrecking Ball
RMB 3 - Webswing Attack
RMB 4 - Web Swinging

I changed my function keys from F1-F6 to 1-6, so that I could reach them easier. Since you can have up to 6 skills bound into the RMB slot.

Costume:

The Core is in the build, but I rolled Attack Speed for his Affixes.

Gear:

As far as gear goes, Uniques are always nice. However, there is one I'd like to advise looking for specifically. It is called "Hand Assasin Ninja Tabi", it is an ANY Hero Unique which adds Move Speed, Critical Rating, Brutal Strike Rating, Critical Strike Rating, Dodge Rating, a chance to become invisible and adding Critical Rating in the process and +1 to all powers. A very nice Unique for this build. Otherwise, Just remember as you're gearing up to focus on items that give you health, health regen, crit, damage or benefit your skills and you'll do fine.

Synergies:

Cable
Colossus
Deadpool
Gambit
Hulk
Iron Man
Loki
Punisher
Spiderman
Storm

These are the Synergies I currently use / have. Might change as I get more of them that benefit this Hero.

This build has excellent survivability and does massive damage. Again, as with all of my builds, this is just my opinion and view on this Hero. I welcome any feedback or suggestions and hope that this build helps others who are looking at playing this hero.
