Best Builds for Midra, Lord of Frenzied Flame

These builds exploit Midra, Lord of Frenzied Flame's weaknesses and match the fight's demands.

Frost Mage C-Tier Intelligence

Frost is one of Midra's key weaknesses. Adula's Moonblade can stagger him and the frost debuff accelerates the fight.

Rivers of Blood S-Tier Dexterity/Arcane

Bleed works well and the aggression of Corpse Piler keeps Midra from using his most dangerous frenzy attacks.

Giant Crusher A-Tier Strength

Pure physical damage hits hard against Midra. Jump attacks can stagger him out of his frenzied flame buildup.

Moonveil Magic S-Tier Intelligence/Dexterity

Magic is neutral and Transient Moonlight can interrupt Midra's cast animations. Good balance of safety and damage.
