Once you open D4builds.gg, you will notice several Meta Builds ready for you on the website. These are some of the most popular builds which are used by prestigious players of the game. If you do not want the hassle of formulating your own build from scratch, you can base your builds on these Diablo 4 Meta Builds.

However, if you want to make your own build, start by clicking on the Build Planner option at the top. Then you should follow these steps:

1. The first menu, "Gear & Skills," will be where you will plan what gear to use. Make sure to select your class from the option above it and start off by slotting your current or desired Legendary Aspect or Unique item in the empty boxes.
2. In the "Skill Tree," you can experiment by selecting the various skills you need by utilizing all the available skill points. This is one of the most important parts of your build.
3. In the Paragon Board, similarly to the previous method, you can select your preferred boards, glyphs, and nodes to implement in your build to make it powerful.

As you must know by now, four major stats govern all the builds in this game - Strength, Dexterity, Willpower, and Intelligence. At the end of the day, all the classes get some boosts with each increased stat. However, some stats in each class in Diablo 4 are more prominent than others.

The most important stats to focus on for each character are:

1. Barbarian: Strength and Dexterity
2. Rogue: Willpower and Dexterity
3. Necromancer: Intelligence and Willpower
4. Druid: Willpower and Intelligence
5. Sorcerer: Intelligence and Willpower

These are essential for your Paragon Board, especially in the late game, as you try to make your character deal as much damage as possible. Although each build has its own preferences in Diablo 4, this was a generalized structure of each character in the game.
