Comparison of all Classes in Undecember and list of Odealo's best Builds
Introduction
Undecember offers a never before seen level of freedom regarding character progression. It lets you freely combine Gear, Skills, and Zodiac (a talent system) to create unique and exciting Builds. As a result, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of viable combinations, but, while we're as excited to try them all out as anyone, we also understand that it might get quite overwhelming for newcomers. To help you find yourself in the ocean of Undecember Builds, we've prepared a series of build guides in which we break them down in detail. You'll find them down below, separated into three categories:
- Strength Builds - These are mostlythe builds that fit the "warrior" archetype. They use brute force to overpower the opposition in melee.
- Dexterity Builds - Builds focused on ranged physical damage, high crit chance, and subtlety. They often offer more flexibility than Strength Builds.
- Intelligence Builds -If you're looking for Caster Builds for Undecember, you'll find them in this section. They offer great offensive power, often at the cost of low defense.
Important Note: If you want to find out more about how Undecember's Build system works exactly, check out the last section of this guide!

Undecember BuildsExplained
First of all, there are no Classes in Undecember which means that you are not funneled into any playstyle after you create a character. Instead, there are three main Attributes; Strength, Dexterity, and Intelligence that promote different types of Builds (of course, nothing stops you from experimenting and mixing Strength with Intelligence, for example). The game's Zodiac system will allow you to further specialize your character after you've chosen its main Attribute. Another benefit of Undecember's Class-less system isthat you can choose any of the Skills that are available, even if they don't correspond too well with your chosen progression path.
As you can see, this system offers A LOT of possibilities but many of these possibilities are potential traps. To help you avoid these traps and improve your ability to create consistent Undecember Builds yourself, we'll break down the game's three main Archetypes: Strength Builds, Dexterity Builds, and Intellect Builds. But first, we'll explain the Gear, Runes, and the Zodiac System in a few words.
- Gear - Undecember offers seemingly unlimited options when it comes to gear creation and customization. You can freely change equipment's stats, bonuses,and gradesthrough the enchanting system.To fuel your enchanting, however, you will need an increasing amount of materials that can be obtained from disassembling other gear pieces. Through the game's gear-making systems, you are able to create equipment that's perfect for your build (it may take a lot of attempts and re-rolls, though). Just prepare for quite a lot of grinding to get enough materials.
- Runes -Runes comprise Skill and Link Runes andthey offerseemingly infinite possibilities when it comes to combining and modifying Skills.Skill Runes are used to unlock various powerful Skills and any Skill Rune can be used on any Character.Link Runes assist the effects of Skill Runes, improving and changing them in various ways. Runes can be equipped in a special space that's called the Rune Cast. Every Skill Rune can be upgraded with up to 6 different Link Runes. Link Runes come with different colors that match different edges of Skill Rune's border. Only Runes with matching colors can be linked together, however, multiple Skill Runes can be connected to the same Link Rune (there are also ways to change Runes' border colors to make different links possible).
- Zodiac System -This is Undecember's take on the talent trees known from other RPGs.At the base of the system, in the center of the Zodiac, you'll find three main attributes; Strength, Agility, and Intelligence. Improving these attributes allows you to equip increasingly powerful equipment.As you progress, you will be also able to invest points into the skill constellationsand unlock powerful modifiers for your character.Each Constellation offers a completely different set of bonuses and modifiers that can sometimes change your character's gameplay completely.
Strength Archetype If you like the path of brute forcing your way through hordes of enemies, you'll find Strength-based builds very appealing. They mostly specialize in close-quarters combat, usually have quite formidable defenses, and are relatively simple to learn. Many melee skills, recommended for Strength builds, deal large amounts of AoE damage which works extremely well with the Strength attribute as it provides a flat bonus to damage dealt. Strength Builds excel at dealing with large packs of weaker monsters, but they are not the best for fights against high-health enemies, like bosses, as they offer low crit chance and lack in terms of single-target DPS. Below, you'll find our Rune, Zodiac, and Gear recommendations for Strength Archetype Builds. |

Dexterity Archetype Dexterity promotes ranged DPS builds, so players that usually main Archers, Hunters, and other similar characters will find the archetype very appealing. If you prefer to stay away from your enemies and pick them off one by one from a distance, you'll definitely find Dexterity to be up your alley. While Dex builds don't deal as much AoEDamage as Strength builds, they more than make up for it with large crits and outstanding Single-Target DPS. When it comes to defense, they value Dodge over Armor which makes them deceptively resilient (but they lack in the HP pool, so they are still quite squishy at the end of the day). Dexterity Builds also tend to be very dynamic and agile, which makes them fun to play but also rather difficult to master as making the most of the available mobility can be quite tricky. |

Intelligence Archetype Focusing your build on Intelligence will allow you to create a powerful Mage character. In comparison to Strength and Dexterity builds, Intelligence builds offer even more flexibility and the chosen Skill Runes play an even larger role in them. In general, you can go via one of two routes: you either create a flexible elemental caster who's a jack of all trades master of none, or you focus on a specific form of magic/spell to create a much more specialized but equally powerful build. As for defenses, you can rely on distraction and illusion spells to ensure that your enemies have other things to worry about while you scorch, freeze, or electrocute them from a safe distance. Another fun option is to utilize Spells that summon Minions; yes, a Summoner Mage is a real and powerful possibility in Undecember. |
