The Thorns Spiritborn is the meta immortal build for Season 6. Reflect damage back to every enemy at insane rates while face-tanking Tormented Lilith.
Why Thorns Spiritborn Is Unkillable
- Reflect damage: 5,000+ Thorns per hit
- Multiple defensive sources: HP + Fortify + Barrier
- Solo progression god-tier
- Beginner-friendly: Stand and attack
How It Works
Thorns = damage reflected when hit. Stack Thorns to 5,000+, equip Gorilla Spirit for HP boost, then stand in elite packs. They die faster than you.
