Backpack Battles is all about putting your stuff together in your bags to get the most benefit. To win all the rounds, you’ll need the best possible items, good synergy, and the right character. Here are some of my favorite builds.
Best Backpack Battles builds
While there are a ton of different possible builds, there are a few that have stood out to me as the most synergistic, and the most fun. These builds are part putting together the items properly in the right spot, but depend a lot on luck with the RNG in the store.
3. The Double-Axe/Great Sword Berserker
The Berserker is a character that is only available in the full release of Backpack Battles and not the demo. The Berserker comes with extra stamina and arage meterthat explodes once during each round. to best utilize this power, you will want to collect big weapons that deal massive amounts of damage,a ton of armor, and upgrade everything into its strongest form. Thedouble-axeis a new item, exclusive to the Berserker, and theBackpack Battle reciperequires two axes. You can also make another massive weapon that is just as powerful, called theBusted Blade, made by using the Forging Hammer on the Impractically Large Greatsword. Here are some items to look out for:

2. The Poison Explosion Reaper
To get a little bit of poison on your enemies as the Reaper is pretty easy; her starting case adds poison to anything you put inside of it. But once you add a couple ofDeath Scythesand fill in between them withStrong Pestilence Flasks, you’ll be getting somewhere around 80-100 poison counters on your opponent. I averaged about 83 for this build, and I was pretty starved for the yellow potions needed to make this work. The Death Scythes are no joke when it comes toeating up your stamina.

1. Fire Pyre
The Fire Pyre is exactly what it sounds like. You can burn just about anything to the ground with this build; it’s one of the strongest builds I have found in this game so far. Using theSun Armorsurrounded by flame and holy items andFriendly Fire as the class item, you will get a massive amount ofHeat.
