Soulframe Build Meta (Preludes 15)
Current Soulframe build meta for Gods & Ghosts: Virtue spreads, Totem priorities, and group compositions for Agari and raids.
Meta Definition in Pre-Alpha
Soulframe's "meta" shifts weekly during Preludes. Gods & Ghosts established Courage-primary DPS with one Spirit specialist for spectral mechanics and one Grace flex for revives and mobility as the default four-player Agari template.
Meta here means efficient clear rates with average gear — not leaderboard-only setups requiring unreplicable Chordstone luck.
Solo Meta
Solo players favor Tethren or Sirin with hybrid Virtues: 60% primary, 30% secondary, 10% tertiary baseline before Totem bonuses. Nightfold uptime matters more than burst for solo Agari chains because adds spawn continuously.
Totem priorities: socket Smite-enhancing Totems first, then sustain Talismans. Consumable usage is minimal in meta solo routes once Tempers reach blue quality.
Group Meta
Groups stack complementary Pacts rather than duplicate S-tier picks. One Courage Smite carrier, one Spirit debuff, one Grace support, and one flex AoE (often Ode Tempest) handles most Preludes 15 content.
Trading enables specialized gear without farming every role on one character — see trading guide for safe transfers of role-specific Talismans.
Anti-Meta and Future Patches
Off-meta Pacts shine in skill-expression content like Cogah hard mode speed goals. Track Devstreams for Virtue cap changes that flip meta overnight — maintain respec materials before major patches.
