This Diablo 4 Season 3 build tier list will rank all classes based on their power ceiling in the endgame in Season of the Construct. The sizeable new patch 1.3.0 brings long-standing features requested by the community, like WASD movement and a new stash tab. It also introduces a laundry list of balance adjustments to existing classes, skills, aspects, and Unique items to spice up the meta.
Note that this tier list reflects how powerful the specific builds are when all their power ramps come online and how well they play in Levels 50 to 100+ in endgame content. Some builds have slower leveling, especially those with Druid, but S-tier classes also have a leeway to expedite the process. Conversely, some lower-tier builds may have ways to power-level, only to fall off in DPS in the late game.
You shouldn't rely completely on this Diablo 4 Season 3 build tier list while deciding what to play. The balance goal for the developers is to give all classes a way to shine, and builds excel in specific activities. Choose what's best suited to your playstyle.
Disclaimer: This tier list is entirely based on the writer's views.
Best builds for PvE in Diablo 4
In this game, PvE is essentially all the non-PvP content you must complete for progression. You have main, side, and priority quests to complete while exploring Sanctuary and taking on hordes of monsters.
However, combat in this action RPG is not at all forgiving. Rather, it will frequently bring you to the brink of death. Hence, you must always have the best gear equipped and have a solid build to take on the forces of Hell.
S tier
As the name suggests, the S-Tier contains all the best builds for PvE combat. You might not be able to achieve them in the game's early stages. However, once you are strong enough and have invested points into your build, these are the best choices in the game.
Below are the S-tier builds for PvE in the game:
- Bonspear Necromancer
- Sever Necromancer
- Rend Barbarian
- HoTA Barbarian
- Charge Barbarian
- Walking Arsenal Barbarian
- Upheveal Barbarian
- Tornado Druid
A tier
This is the A-Tier, which comprises builds you can try earlier in your playthrough. However, while these are also pretty good choices for late-game combat, they might feel a bit lacking in World Tier 4 Torment.
Below are the A-Tier builds for PvE in Diablo 4:
- Bone Spirit Necromancer
- Blood Surge Necromancer
- Double-swing Barbarian
- Whirlwind Barbarian
- Thorns Barbarian
- Lightning Storm Druid
- Stormclaw Druid
- Blizzard Sorcerer
- Meteor Sorcerer
- Firewall Sorcerer
- Arc Lash Sorcerer
- Twisting Blades Rogue
- Barrage Rogue
- Penetrating Shot Rogue
- Rapid Fire Rogue
B tier
You will have great leveling builds in the B-Tier, as you can use these to grow exponentially until you gain enough strength to try out the first two tiers. For a pretty solid early to mid-game build, you can try any of these in Diablo 4:
- Infinimist Necromancer
- Blood Lance Necromancer
- Blight Corpse Explosion Necromancer
- Death Trap Rogue
- Flurry Rogue
- Rain of Arrows Rogue
- Shred Druid
- Trampleslide Druid
- Boulder Druid
- Ice Shards Sorcerer
- Fireball Sorcerer
- Ball Lightning Sorcerer
- Chain Lightning Sorcerer
- Frozen Orb Sorcerer
- Leapquake Barbarian
C tier
As the name suggests, the C-Tier contains the most imbalanced builds, which come out as pretty subpar compared to the others on this list. It would be beneficial not to opt for any of these builds as you will be in a disadvantageous situation most of the time in the action RPG.
Some C-Tier builds in Diablo 4 are:
- Shadow Summoner Necromancer
- Companion Driud
