While Minecraft Dungeons may not have a traditional magic system, there are definitely opportunities to fill that void in satisfying ways. This ranged build is designed for players who want to manipulate the powers of dark soul magic.
The Torment Wraith build focuses on harnessing the insane power and knockback of the Torment Quiver. Your other pieces of equipment and artifacts for this loadout are designed to help you get the most out of this powerful ranged attack.
Weapons and Armor
Eternal Knife (Soggy Swamp/Desert Temple)
A Torment Wraith has no need for mana, instead unlocking the power of lost souls with the Eternal Knife. This powerful unique guarantees +2 soul gathering and also has a chance to gain even more souls upon hit. Here are the enchantments we equipped for this build:
Frost Bite (Creepy Crypt/Redstone Mines)
Your foes will feel the cold air of death approaching with the Frost Bite Armor. Armed with a snowy companion that stuns nearby enemies, double soul gathering, and +30% ranged damage, this piece is crucial for boosting the power of your Torment Quiver. Our enchantments follow:
Bow of Lost Souls (Creeper Woods/Creepy Crypt)
The Bow of Lost Souls will be your most important piece of gear when it comes to the success of this build, as the damage output of Torment Quiver relies heavily on the enchantments of this item:
Artifacts
Torment Quiver
A Torment Wraith is only as good as their Torment Quiver. Combined with the right bow and equipment set, the Torment Quiver can easily destroy hordes of enemies in a single shot. This artifact is the bread and butter of this build.
Ghost Cloak
Move amongst the shadows with the haunting ghost cloak. In combination with the Speed Synergy enchantment, this will be your greatest escape tool if you find yourself overwhelmed by a mob of powerful enemies.
Soul Healer
Yet another piece of gear in this build that boosts soul gathering, the Soul Healer artifact is an incredibly powerful sustainment tool. Popping this will give you or a weakened ally a life-saving chunk of health.
Dungeon-crawling fun for the whole family!
There’s a lot to love about this action-oriented spinoff set in the blocky Minecraft univserse.
