Rime Fellowship Hero Guide

Last Updated: 27th Oct, 2026

Introduction

Hello and welcome to Method's Rime Guide. My name is Billiboes, I play Rime regularly at the highest ranks (top 0.01%) and I am here to give you all the information you need to excel in the October Reset of Fellowship playing Rime. My goal is to help you understand the basics of Rime and also give you insight on how the Hero plays into endgame.

If you want to watch Rime gameplay at a high level I stream on occasion. I try to answer Rime questions the best I can as well when I have time between runs.

Overview:

Rime is a ranged caster DPS who operates in burst windows with a builder/spender gameplay loop.

Strengths

  • Well rounded damage profile.
  • Scales well early, remains competitive end-game
  • Rotation is engaging
  • Many potentially viable builds

Weaknesses

  • Does not excel in any particular damage profile
  • Other Heroes have stronger spirit ults

Rime Cheat Sheet

Stat Priority

Intellect > Haste = Crit = Expertise > Spirit

Aim for around 22%+ in Haste, Crit, and Expertise. After reaching ~22% in Haste, Crit, and Expertise, it's best to continue getting more Expertise and Crit. This can ofcourse change based on specific build set ups.

Spirit is your worst stat so having as little Spirit as possible is best, but having 10-15% is not bad with the recent inclusion of Rising Spirit.

Best In Slot Gear

  • BIS Weapon: Asha's Chronoshift Spire

  • BIS Legendary: Harbinger Of Winter Helm
