Xbalanque's Skill Order Notes If you need to be safer in this combo then upgrade your 2 to max first then your 3. Your 3 would then be used more as an escape. I only do this if I am against winning aggressive enemies

Intro

Xbal as always seemed to be a god that is really only seen in late game due to his weak early damage. With this build, you should see some big boi damage while in the early game.

I found the build to be quite fun but let me know what you think and if there are any items you'd recommend/replace :)

Why Rising jaguar first?

The first 2 tests will see the what ability to max first if all darts hit the enemy

TEST 1

ability 2 as lvl 1

ability 3 as lvl 5

total damage = 100 (x11) + 218 (x1) = 318




TEST 2

ability 2 as lvl 5

ability 3 as lvl 1

total damage = 245 (x11) + 67 (x1) = 312




These next 2 tests will determine the better combo if the enemy is hit with just 1 dart


TEST 3

ability 2 as lvl 1

ability 3 as lvl 5

total damage = 72 (7) + 218 = 290



TEST 4

ability 2 as lvl 5

ability 3 as lvl 1

total damage = 173 (x7) + 67 = 240

As you can see, is more beneficial to increase his 3 first. However, that does leave him open to agressive attacks as his 3/escape is on cooldown
