If you want to make Awakened Thane perform at peak performance in AFK Arena, you need to run the right built. While many players think simply maxing out will do the trick (well, not too wrong), there are certain sweetspots with Awakened Thane that will give a big boost so I have some recommendations below that you will very likely find interesting.
Awakened Thane’s Signature Item should be at +30. It’s mandatory to get their full skills unlocked so investing on the one(s) you build is also a priority at this point.. If you want to learn more about my recommended priority how you should invest into Signature Items in AFK Arena, check out my SI Priority Guide here.
Furniture Recommendation
Overall it’s recommended to get Awakened Thane’s 9/9 furniture set bonus. It’s mandatory to get their full skills unlocked so investing on the one(s) you build is also a priority at this point. This is not in any specific order, if you run them you need their furniture to unlock their full skills. If you want to learn more about in what order to unlock your heroes furniture sets, check out my furniture priority guide here.
Recommended Artifacts
Dual Divinity is the best artifact to run with Awakened Thane in most cases, although you can also consider running Verdant Longbow or Duras Blade as backups, depending on your team setup and what artifact you have available.
Engraving
In terms of Engravings, your final goal should be E60.. If you really want to make full use of him and get his full potential unlocked, E60 is non-negotiable. Learn more about my recommended engraving priority here.
