Best characters for Piggy Bank
Characters that pick up Piggy Bank in our curated build pool — with notes on why the combo works where we have them.
Saver
2 builds
Saver starts with Piggy Bank and already wants to hoard materials; stacking more copies massively boosts your compound interest and damage scaling before wave 20.
Demon
2 builds
Piggy Bank lets Demon grow their material pile faster, which then converts into Max HP at the end of waves. Even though it stops at wave 20, the extra early economy gives your HP scaling an important kick-start.
Explorer
1 build
Piggy Bank synergizes with Explorer's crate-heavy, low-kill economy by letting you snowball saved materials into big shop spikes in the mid game.
Loud
