But worry not, as below we’ve listed down some of the best weapons you can use with the Spore Warden class.

Portable Sawmill: A Legendary Sniper Rifle that performs well in practically every situation.

Bawdyrocker: A shotgun that can do some serious damage when you’re up close and personal with an enemy.

Spriggan of the Shrieking Void: A non-legendary SMG which puts the Legendary Weapons in the game to shame. It deals incredible damage and has a ridiculous fire-rate.

AUTOMATIC.exe: A Legendary Handgun which deals enough damage to be able to compete with ARs and Sniper Rifles.

Best Gear For Spore Warden

Rings

The two best rings to use with the Spore Warden class are Class Ring of Timely Incision and Mood Ring of the Foul Fiend.

While Action Skill is cooling down, the Class Ring of Timely Incision’s effects are increased by 50%. The Mood Ring of the Foul Fiend increases its effects by 100% while the Ward is not full.

Amulet

By far, the best Amulet for the Spore Warden class is the Overflow Bloodbag. When you’re at full HP, this Amulet will raise your max health from Dark magic. This will significantly increase your survivability in the battlefield.

Wards

The best Ward for your Spore Warden is the Cursed Wit. This Legendary Ward works great as it still provides amazing benefits even when it isn’t active.

When your Cursed Wit Ward is depleted, it increases your damage and damage reduction. This Ward will have a big impact on both your offense and defense.

Armor

The best Armor to use with the Spore Warden is the Legendary Amalgam Armor. This Armor can roll with all kinds of different buffs, but they’re all very useful and work great with the Spore Warden’s skillset.

Spells

The best Spell Book to use with the Spore Warden is, unsurprisingly, the Buffmeister. The additional effect that you need to get for the Buffmeister is “Kchow!”. This effect will increase Crit Chance by 100%, which will make all of your attacks Critical Hits.

If you can get the Buffmeister Spell Book for your Spore Warden, it’ll be game over for your enemies.

Best Secondary Class For Spore Warden

The Spore Warden is a very well-balanced class. It is designed to work well with all of the other classes in the game.

However, the best class combination for the Spore Warden has to be the Clawbringer. The Spore Warden + Clawbringer combo is a match made in heaven.

The Clawbringer class gives you a companion in the form of a baby dragon, while the Spore Warden class gives you a mushroom to fight alongside you. The Kindred Heart skill from the Spore Warden’s skill tree increases damage and health of all companions.

This will make both your mushroom and baby dragon friends significantly more powerful. The baby dragon is absurdly powerful already, but this skill will take your furry friend to the next level.

Most of the skills in the Spore Warden and Clawbringer skill trees pair quite well with each other. But the Kindred Heart skill is what you really want to focus on first.
