Chef
2 builds
Wrench lets Chef spawn Incendiary Turrets and other constructs that constantly set enemies on fire while benefiting from his huge non-elemental damage bonus against burning targets. It pairs perfectly with Engineering, Luck and consumable-focused play for safe scaling, especially in Endless runs.
Stats: Engineering · Luck · Regeneration · Armor
Entrepreneur
2 builds
Wrench scales with Engineering and spawns powerful turrets, letting Entrepreneur bypass his 50% damage modification penalty while capitalizing on strong structure scaling for Endless runs.
Stats: Engineering · Harvesting · HP Regeneration · Dodge
Technomage
3 builds
Wrench is the perfect fit for Technomage because it directly creates structures, which then feed his passive: every structure gives elemental damage, and each point of elemental damage boosts structure attack speed. This makes Wrench both your main damage source and your best scaling tool.
Stats: Engineering · Elemental · Explosion Damage · Attack Speed
Engineer
4 builds
Wrench is Engineer's signature tool, converting Engineering directly into powerful turrets that spawn close together. This lets you build dense kill zones that scale extremely well with structure attack speed and Engineering.
Stats: Engineering · Armor · HP Regeneration · Dodge
Arms Dealer
2 builds
Synergizes with structure-focused items and engineering, leaving behind turrets that keep dealing damage even as your weapons get wiped each shop.
Stats: Engineering · Elemental Damage · Speed
Streamer
2 builds
Wrench generates structures, which are perfect for Streamer because each structure both deals damage and gives +2 Armor. Wrench builds naturally create tanky, stationary playstyles that synergize with standing still for extra materials.
