If you want to make Kalene 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 Kalene that will give a big boost so I have some recommendations below that you will very likely find interesting.
Kalene’s Signature Item should be at +20. While her full +30 Signature item bonus seems nice, against bosses you have better options so I recommend only getting it to +20 for the immunity against control effects and you’re good to go with her. You won’t run her late-late game anyway.. 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 Kalene’s 9/9 furniture set bonus. Kalene Having 2 sacrifices is a good boost to her and if you’re earlier in the game an investment you will not regret. She’s no end-game hero to run but that can still pay off until you get to invest into the meta end-game heroes.

Recommended Artifacts
Windbinder is the best artifact to run with Kalene in most cases, although you can also consider running Warden of the Arcane or Duras Call as backups, depending on your team setup and what artifact you have available.
Engraving
In terms of Engravings, your final goal should be E60. (but you can also get the first sweet spot at E30). Krakens should get her health node above E60 in order to max out her tenacity Learn more about my recommended engraving priority here.
