Rune
- - if you have a Marauder set with this rune, that's perfectly fine too. Otherwise we recommend Pack runes for the higher crit chance. Rune of Speed isn't bad either.
Consumables
Food
- - strong mix of sustain and damage.
- - cheaper defensive option.
- - active damage mitigation via more access to dodging.
- is a cheaper version of Orrian Truffle and Meat Stew and sufficient enough in most cases.
- - non-ascended offensive option.

Weak training wheels build. Play this only if you are unable to make the Radiance version work. Willbender does not have the tools to out-sustain bruisers like holo/vindi/any cele build no matter how tanky you build; damage is what matters.
Still works fine but I think Radiance is the better version of the build, the extra damage helps snowball fights harder. The extra healing here is nice but it won't help you outlast a Cele build, what you need is burst.
A great build for learning WB, and even better when you know it well. High sustain, with burst damage that's nothing to snuff at. The 02/14/23 patch will remove the restriction of allowing only one Willbender Flames buff at a time. A build that was already very versatile will get even better.
This is a fun and effective build, with a well-rounded feel to it. I would recommend it to anyone with a bit of WB experience under their belt. The only major drawn back I found was it has next to no range ability, but that's not the end of the world on a roaming build and the long range teleport takes the edge off the problem somewhat. You can always swap to a DH build temporarily if your roaming squad decides to take a tower down.
This is acctually a really fun build .only thing i would consider is the meditation heal skill
