The good news is that anyone can enjoy The First Descendant, as the game is available on multiple platforms, such as PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

There are 14 playable characters in The First Descendant, and keeping up with the details about each one of them might turn into a bit of a hassle. If you like playing with Jayber, we are here to tell you the best build for the character so you can progress fast in the game.

The First Descendant Jayber Best Active Skills

Jayber has an amazing set of skills - one passive and four active. He is a powerful character, especially if you know how to use his abilities to your advantage. Let's take a look at all of Jayber's skills and choose the best ones, so you can be fully prepared for the next battle.

Passive Skill

 

Turret Sync

• Increases ATK when Assault Turret and Medical Turret are both summoned.

Active Skills

 

Assault Turret

• Summons an Assault Turret to attack the enemy. If enhanced, it launches attacks into nearby area.

 

Medical Turret

• Summons a Medical Turret to heal allies and distract enemies. If enhanced, it restores mana.

 

Multi-Purpose Gun

• Changes gun into Multi-Purpose Gun. If hit by a Multi-Purpose Gun, turret enters an enhanced state.

 

Reactivate

• Recalls all summoned turrets and inflicts damage to nearby enemies. After using Total Recall, you enter Overhaul state, where turrets are enhanced.

Without a doubt, the best active skills to use for Jayber are Medical Turret and Assault Turret. To get the most out of this character, you need to alternate between these two skills. They will allow you to heal your allies and keep the enemy pinned down in the meantime.

The First Descendant Jayber Best Weapons

However, although Jayber is mostly used for setting up Turrets and watching them do the job, he still needs to defend himself somehow. There are some characters in The First Descendant that are great with only one or two weapons, but thankfully, Jayber offers a wider selection. Let's take a look at the three weapons that can benefit this character the most.

Best Weapons

 

Enduring Legacy

• Machine Gun

 

Afterglow Sword

• Sniper Rifle

 

Nazeistra's Devotion

• Hand Cannon

The Enduring Legacy weapon is powerful and reliable, and it will help Jayber keep enemies at arm's length. Nazeistra's Devotion is the best at landing powerful shots on enemies who get too close or are trying to avoid the Turrets. If you decide to use the Afterglow Sword, you will be able to shoot mostly opponents who avoid coming near you because of your Turrets.

The First Descendant Jayber Best Reactors

Reactors are modifiers that allow you to tweak your damage output and add some elemental damage or status ailment. Keep in mind that the reactors you choose need to be aligned with your active and passive skills to give you the best results.

Jayber is a Non-Attribute character, so the Materialized Phase/Singularity Reactor will maximize his Assault Turret, Medical Turret, and Turret Sync skills. There isn't a specific type of Reactor that you need to use; simply select the first Materialized Phase Reactor and upgrade it when you find a more powerful one.

The First Descendant Jayber Best Modules

Modules are items that we use to enhance a character's Descendant and Weapon stats. Jayber can use multiple Modules, but of course, some are way better than others. The best Modules to use with Jayber are the following:

• Increased HP
• Non-Attribute Specialist
• Increased DEF
• Shortsword
• Skill Cost Optimize

Keep in mind that when you reach level 30, you will be able to add more Modules to your build. You can always experiment a little bit with all of them, but the ones that are considered the best are as follows:

• Attacking Compulsion
• DEF Accelerant
• Non-Attribute Syncytium
• Shield Conversion

These will all increase your defense, skills, and power and reduce cooldowns and damage absorption. We are almost at the end of creating the perfect build for Jayber, so keep reading to find out what external components can make him even stronger.

The First Descendant Jayber Best External Components

We should never forget about the External Components that we can add to our builds in The First Descendant, as they are extremely important and can make our character even more powerful. Although this is considered one of the grindy aspects of the game and a lot of its potential depends on RNG, External Components can make a huge difference.

The best External Components that you can add to Jayber are Max Shield, Max HP, DEF, and HP Recovery. They will keep you safe and allow you to boost the most valuable attributes of Jayber, such as the ability to set up Turrets. Have fun and good luck on your next adventure!
