Wilbur is a Loremaster who specializes in mechanics and electricity. Despite his small Gnomish stature, Wilbur can really pack a punch, especially when utilized in a team composition that lets him hard-carry with Lightning damage and Spark stacks. Below is a look at the best Wilbur build in Across the Obelisk.

Best Wilbur Talents
The best talents for Wilbur are:
- Level 2: Circuit Overload is a good pick here for a damage-dealing Wilbur.
- Level 3: Voltaic Arc adds Spark, which is perfect for this build.
- Level 4: Transcribe is the better pick here — it gives 2 Inspire and a copy of a book.
- Level 5: Quantum Reactor adds Spark and grants a 30% increase, which is a no-brainer.
Best Wilbur Decks
For this Lightning-damage Wilbur build, we’ll utilize low-cost damage-dealing cards in the early game and eventually transition into a few high-cost energy cards like Ball Lightning for the real power combos. Wilbur pairs well with heroes that can grant him more energy, card draw, etc. His goal is to stack Spark and pump out a ton of damage.

Best Wilbur Perks
The best Wilbur perk setup is 23 General, 23 Elemental, and 4 Mystical. The important perks to pick up include Powerful (increased charges on this Hero), Wet (Wet also reduces Lightning resistance), and, of course, Inspire to start with an extra card. You can also pick up the Bless perk which makes it so Bless increases your damage instead of healing received. Depending on your team composition, you’ll also want someone to pick up the other nodes in Wet and Powerful.
