Spines/WP

[redtwister666]

Maybe I missed it, but I have not seen a single Spines/WP build and it seems to me to be a very good combination.

 

My problem is that I have never used WP and I'm not really sure what matters and what does not. 

 

For example, does Strength of Will eventually just replace Indomitable Will?  Their Status Effect Resists look pretty similar.

 

 

Spines, by comparison, is fairly straightforward: you want to get into the universe of Quills on, Build Up -> Throiw Spines -> Spines Burst -> finish with Ripper, repeat on next mob.

 

In the early game, I put slots in Lunge, but that eventually get's respec'd.

 

Here is a wild guess at a build.
