Best Briar Build in LoL Swarm
Briar is a fun champion to play in LoL Swarm but she can also be quite difficult to master. Considering she is front line tanking most of the time, there might be times when she finds herself in tricky situations that she cannot immediately get away from.
This is why she can’t really be played in small team compositions since she is much more vulnerable. It’s best if she is partnered with an ADC like Xayah and a support like Seraphine to peel for her. Make sure to check out the best Seraphine build in Swarm to take advantage of this combination.
In this guide, however, we will be going over the best Briar build, explaining which stats and weapon upgrades you must get on her to draw out the best power from her.
Best stats upgrade
The list of stats you want to upgrade on Briar are:
Max HP
Health Regeneration
Area size
Armor
EXP
Haste
This is the best setup if you’re looking to play Briar as a frontline tank for the team comp. If you want more damage, prioritize the damage and crit chance stat upgrades instead (swap out armor and experience, if possible).
Best weapons for Briar in Swarm
If you have just started playing Briar, below is the weapon combination I recommend using:
Searing Shortbow
Radiant Field
Statikk Sword
Mega Bunny Blast
When playing Briar as a tank, get Radiant Field and Iceblast Armor to maximize survivability. Consider also getting The Annihilator instead of the Mega Bunny Blast. If you want to go full damage output, get the UwU Blaster and the Bunny Crossbow.
