Far Far West allows you the scope to use different builds to clear the in-game content and level up your bounty hunter. When you're playing in higher difficulties, you'll want to be efficient with your resources and how you use them.

This guide will provide you with what I consider the best build available in the current build of the game, along with something you can also use as a beginner.

Best build to use in Far Far West

The solo build requires you to unlock the Leveredge, which is an incredibly powerful rifle to begin with. Here's how we set it up effectively.

Damage will be the first stat you'll want to max out. The higher the damage, the fewer shots you require to clear enemies.
Add an ample number of points (about 3-4) to Fire Rate, as the Leveredge will initially feel slow.
Max out your Draw Speed instead of investing in Reload Speed. We can then take advantage of the Stacked Lever Joker that immediately reloads two bullets. Hence, Reload Speed becomes completely redundant.

Here's a list of two other Jokers that must be used with this build (aside from Stacked Lever).

Ricochet: 30% chance that a fired shot will automatically hit a nearby enemy.
Relentless: You get +30% damage when you're under 30% HP, and we will shortly find out why this is such an important piece.

Character

You'll want the following stats maxed as a priority.

Health: This is a must for any usable build and all weapons.
Spell Cooldown: Essential for this specific build.
Speed: Being mobile is key to survival.

Here are my three best choices for Jokers with this build.

Second Wind: You can die when on a run, and Second Wind keeps you that safety blanket if you make a grave mistake. It recovers your HP partially if there's a fatal blow.
Glass Cannon: With the Leveredge, you want to play it as a sniper. You drop your HP to 98 from 130, but gain 40% more weapon damage. Your gun will hit harder and stronger with this sacrifice.
Soul Siphon: Ideally, you want both equipped, since you'll regain 4 HP per soul. It's always useful to have this extra healing option.

Spells

Here's a list of my preferred spells with this build.

Thunder Strike: Amazing spell that allows you to clear large enemies of enemies with a single strike.
Fireball: This is a perfect combo to trigger with Thunder Strike as it creates a fore tornado. The tornado moves and damages every enemy caught in it.
Bubble: Since both electric and Fire spells combine with Bubble, it's a good option to have as the third choice.

This is also why you want to invest points in Spell Cooldown. Doing so allows you to cycle through your spells faster and clear enemies quicker. Concentrate on the first two spells mentioned above, but don't forget to use Bubble whenever it's ready.

Secondary

For the secondary slot, just go with the well-trusted Revolver. Get the damage, draw speed, and lifesteal up, which are all necessary for a good backup. Both Headbang and Ricochet are strong choices to pair with this gun. Finally, I went with Fire as the element, but you can also swap it for Electricity.

When it comes to Utilities, I am yet to get a firm favorite. At Nightmare difficulty, Bottle Crate is a great choice as you can heal your health on the move. At lower difficulties, however, you can opt for explosive options. I will leave this for your preferred playstyle.
