Buildcraft

Crimson Moon Builds

Crimson Moon has no classes — every build is crafted from your Weapon, Weapon Arts, Boons and chosen Angel. This hub explains the model and its rules.

A build in Crimson Moon is a combination of four confirmed components: a Weapon, one or more Weapon Arts, Boons, and a chosen Angel (with its angelic transformation). Gear and Armor Sets add further layers. Because there are no classes, the same piece of gear can appear in completely different builds.

Run choices vs permanent progression

A build is best understood as two layers: what you choose inside a run (weapon, arts, boons, angel for that mission) and what persists between runs (permanent upgrades, unlockable skills and progression). The progression page separates the two — permanent facts are listed there, and run-specific facts belong to the build.

How build pages are vetted

StatusMeaningCan it be cited as fact?
Official / In-game verifiedConfirmed by official material or directly verified in the released game.Yes
Community-reportedReported by players with attribution; needs verification.Only with attribution
TheorycraftPlausible but untested combination.No — marked clearly
UnverifiedNot enough evidence yet.No — shown as pending

Individual build pages are added only when an entity page can answer a distinct player question and the data is verified (see the weapons, boons, weapon arts and angels hubs). No best-build list is published from speculation.

Take your build into a Nexus Gate

Use the Boon Choice Advisor when three temporary choices appear. It compares the triggers you can actually use, rather than ranking a Boon in isolation.

No weapon, art, boon or angel names are published until verified. Specific builds arrive after in-game verification, each stamped with game version and last-tested date.

FAQ

Common questions about this topic.

How do builds work in Crimson Moon?

You combine a weapon, weapon arts, boons and an angel into a loadout. There are no classes, so identity comes from your chosen components and their synergies.

Is there a best build in Crimson Moon?

No verified best build exists. Build data is published only after in-game verification, each with a status, version and tested date.

Does gear matter for builds?

Yes — gear and armor sets are a confirmed layer that works alongside weapons, arts, boons and angels. Full gear data is pending verification.
