Pestilent Swarm
Poison swarms orbit you while you dash through the map with Rushing Claw. Whatever you pass is poisoned and dies behind you.
Speed farming · Moderate — movement takes practice
Needs: Ring of Writhing Moon
Start Spiritborn on Stinger if you want poison with no unique gate — it still reads as the class. Quill Volley keeps you at range with feathers. Pestilent Swarm is for players who want poison orbs orbiting while they run. Compare three endgame builds, or start with the levelling guide.

Speed farming · Moderate — movement takes practice
Needs: Ring of Writhing Moon
Poison the pack, then hit all of it at once. Stinger needs nothing but a level 70 character, and it grows into one of the strongest builds in the class.
Starter build · Moderate — constant button presses
Needs: Nothing — works without uniques
The one Spiritborn build that fights from range. Pull the pack into a clump with The Protector, then empty a full Vigor bar of feathers into it.
Ranged build · Hard — positioning and Vigor maths
Needs: Rod of Kepeleke
