Best Build for Isabella in AFK Arena (Artifacts, Furniture, Signature Item, Emblems)

If you want to make Isabella 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 Isabella that will give a big boost so I have some recommendations below that you will very likely find interesting.

Isabella’s Signature Item

Signature Item

Isabella's Signature Item should be at +30. Isabella offers additional damage triggered by skills. Absolutely fine but not outstanding and only useful for the niche uses she has in the current meta.. If you want to learn more about the recommended priority how you should invest into Signature Items in AFK Arena, check out our priority guide.

Furniture Recommendation

Furniture Set

Overall we recommend to get Isabella's 9/9 furniture set bonus. Isabella Double energy drain with great auto-targeting is a great thing but the full set is not needed that much. If you want to learn more about in what order to unlock your heroes furniture sets, check out our Furniture Priority Guide.

Engraving

Engravings are an important part for Isabella and this is probably the main reason why you’re here on this page. Below you will find the optimal Engraving Levels as well as our recommended route how to invest in the Engravings as you normally don’t just have the cores lying around just waiting to max out an Engraving for a hero.

In the case of Isabella you don’t have to invest into any Engravings when we talk about the absolute MINIMAL INVESTMENT to make this hero work. The RECOMMENDED INVESTMENT (the investment you should have in order to be able to make the hero work well enough), which is E0 and for those of you who really want to make Isabella shine the MAXIMUM INVESTMENT (the one that makes sense, there is literally no need to invest further unless you’re a PvP whale and drop a ton of money on the game), which is E18.

The more interesting part, however, is the order how to invest your cores in the different nodes, right? Well, below you will find the perfect order to invest the cores in (simply follows the numbers – the colors of the numbers will show you if this is optimal=green or maximum=blue investment). This helps you invest your cores in the most efficient and economic way and get the most of of them with Isabella:

Recommended Artifacts & Collection

If you are not that progressed in AFK Arena and don’t have access to the collections from the Goulish Gallery, Here are the artifacts that you can possible run with Isabella. Please keep in mind that collections are the future so you will need to build them and use them sooner or later to progress to the later content in the game. This is more for earlier players or backups if you can’t use the recommended collection!

Now that artifacts got replaced by the collections in the Ghoulish Gallery, this whole section requires a lot more effort in building the correct collection type with the ideal substats – this lets you fine-tune heroes a lot better but also requires more details in order to work well.

Right now there is not much reason to build a collection item for Isabella in the Goulish Gallery. I might add the setup when it is time but right now there are so many other heroes that require that and Isabella is not really one of them at this point. Stick to the artifact and you will be alright unless you are top 1% of all the players, so to speak.

Conclusion

I hope this guide helped you to build your Isabella correctly without wasting resources but also to make sure to get the best performance of the hero.
