The Diablo 4 Spiritborn class is one of the main additions to arrive with the Vessel of Hatred expansion, and it’s particularly significant as this is a brand new class that has never been seen across the entire series before. This jungle-based class is extremely versatile, as it allows you to combine the power of various animal spirits to create different playstyles inDiablo 4, including the Jaguar, Eagle, Gorilla, and Giant Centipede. Whether you’re trying to find out more about how this class works, or are looking for aDiablo 4 Spiritborn leveling buildto use for your character, this guide will explain everything you need to know about the Spiritborn class in Diablo 4.

The Spiritborn class in Diablo 4 is a martial artist, so has a specialism for close combat, and is highly mobile so can quickly move around the battlefield while dodging attacks. They are empowered with the abilities of four distinct animal spirits, which can be combined in different ways to create a unique style for your character. The animal spirits are:
As you look through the Skill Tree for the Spiritborn you’ll see the main entries are color-coded to identify which spirit animal they relate to. It’s up to you if you want to mix-and-match the different spirits or focus on certain ones in particular, as this class is versatile enough to work well with either.

The Spirit Hall is the class mechanic for Spiritborn, and is used to activate additional powers from the four spirits to bolster your character. Once you reach Level 15 you’ll unlock the class questThe Sacred Hunt, and after seeing that through to the conclusion you’ll be able to access your primary Spirit Hall selection. Continue progressing until you hit Level 30 and you’ll also unlock a secondary selection, with both of these choices providing Passive Skills. A full breakdown of these is as follows:
Primary Spirit Hall selection(bolded figures vary depending on build)
Secondary Spirit Hall selection(bolded figures vary depending on build)
You can only make one Primary and one Secondary Spirit Hall selection, though these can both be the same spirit if you want to double down on their abilities. As a rough guide, combining two different spirits will angle your build towards the following synergies:

While I’ve outlined plenty of choices above for directions you can take with this class, putting together a Diablo 4 Spiritborn leveling build will help you rapidly progress your character through the ranks to access fresh abilities. One such build is based around the powerfulQuill Volleyof the Eagle to deal damage to enemies close up and at range, while also utilising defensive skills of the Gorilla with some ferocity of the Jaguar. You should focus on allocating Skill Points to the following areas in order:
