Best Build for Lavatune in AFK Arena (Artifact, Furniture, Signature Item, Engraving)

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

Important! If you want to check how well Lavatun does in the current meta of all heroes in AFK Arena, please check out my current tier list of all heroes here.

Lavatun’s Signature Item

Signature Item

Lavatun's Signature Item should be at +40. is, as bad as it sounds, the minimum requirement for him if you run him in the more end-game modes as he really needs that SI +30 skill to really take off at his potential - even +40 is an investment I highly recommend for him.. 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 Lavatun's 9/9 furniture set bonus. is also needed here as you need his full 9/9 furniture set bonus to make him play his strong role. 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 Lavatun 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 Lavatun 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 E66 and for those of you who really want to make Lavatun 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 E67.

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 Lavatun:

Recommended Artifacts & Collection

To use Lavatun well I really recommend you to build a collection item from the Goulish Gallery and I don’t want to recommend an artifact that somewhat works but at the end leaves Lavatun far below potential.

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.

This is the collection you want to run with Lavatun (please also mind the recommended collection skill level):

Traders VaultSkill Level 3

Again, this is also the optimal skill level so I don’t recommend going higher than this as this means you have to sacrifice stats which are more important.
