A player of The First Descendant has created a build for the descendant “Ajax” that allows him to hop up and down like a frog while eliminating tons of enemies – perfect for farming gold and XP.
The descendant Ajax is primarily known as a tank in The First Descendant. After all, he has a forward-facing barrier that blocks enemy projectiles; a dome shield that protects you from damage from all directions and has very high defensive stats (DEF and HP).
However, there are also builds for Ajax that allow the tank to deal strong damage. A player has now demonstrated on Reddit what an Ajax build can look like in practice when the focus is on farming.
To do this, Ajax repeatedly jumps up with the skill “Void Jump” and destroys enemies upon landing, charges his Void energy, and activates the skill “Throw Out.” With his green armor, the hopping Ajax on Reddit looks like a frog:

How does the build work? The Reddit user provides no detailed insights into the build but explains that he uses the module “Void Charge” to reduce the cooldown of the skills “Void Jump” and “Throw Out.”
With the transcendent module “Void Charge,” the damage from the skills Void Jump and Throw Out increases proportionally with Ajax’s defense (DEF). Additionally, Void Charge resets the cooldown of a skill when it is used as an enhanced skill.
Throw Out – When enhanced, the knockback and base range are increased.
How do you use the build for farming? When farming gold, experience points, or Kuiper shards, you want to deal as much area damage (AoE damage) as possible. This works very well with Ajax’s Void Jump and Throw Out.
Unlike with Bunny or Valby, you won’t be running around in circles like the Road Runner at lightning speed, but instead, you should stand as centrally as possible at your farming spot and repeatedly use your skills. You want to eliminate as many enemies as possible with a single strike.
If you perform a normal jump before the Void Jump, you will also jump significantly higher. This way, you can also cover a few meters to reach the next group of enemies.
To use the build as effectively as possible when farming, the Reddit user repeats a specific gameplay loop:
- 3x Void Jump
- Throw Out (enhanced)
- 3x Void Jump
- Throw Out
After the third Void Jump in a cycle, the Void energy is fully charged, enhancing Ajax’s skills. He then uses the (enhanced) skill “Throw Out.” Next, he performs another 3x Void Jump while the enhancement is active. The cycle then begins again with the use of “Throw Out” from the start.
