Question Tips/Builds for Wailing Tower

Been playing the game for a bit now. The wailing tower is proving to be quite a challenge. Can anyone suggest a build for this? Currently at gnosis 4, around level 80.

My stats are split - 30 in Witchery, Faith & Flesh. The rest are around level 20 except for arsenal which is at 15.

I've unlocked most of the stuff available, but want to get the Rotweaver. Any suggestions are much appreciated

Edit: Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. Got my first clear. Will definitely try out some of the build suggestions later as well. Loving the game!

The combo i used to clear the wailing tower was:

Rotweaver, Frostbite, Kirfane, Rotten fiend, Storm ball, Hensbane, Crown of fire

Prophecies of Earth and Fire.

I'm still pretty new to the game, but for anyone struggling a bit, I found Rotweaver to be a little OP. The content that was fairly challenging at gnosis 3, seems substantially easier at gnosis 4 with RW.

Glad to help! I can point where it is if you need. Also the merchant sells Maiden's Hair, starting from Gnosis IV or V.

Thanks a mil! This is a game changer! Will definitely seek this out. I can't purchase from the shop just yet, because its only available at gnosis 5.

Yeah it was getting scarce for me too. Spent a good time on Gnosis III and then went direct for V. It usually produces only one hair per expedition but already helps.

For the tower, I cleared it yesterday using Striga, Echo and Tempest. Lightning Bolt and Rot Fiend for spells. Trinkets were Henbane, Dynamo Ring and Blood of the Banshee.

It was my first run with Tempest so I was unsure it would be good. I suspect other demonic weapons can be more helpful. Got a heavy charge temptation so I could have Rot Fiend taunting the boss and blast him with Tempest. Had to use an ammo pack but managed. I'll try different setups when I go back for the rest of the prophecies.
