Best Diablo 4 class builds: Rogue, Druid, Necromancer, Sorcerer, and Barbarian

The best part of ARPGs like Diablo 4 is crafting powerful character builds, and it's just welcomed a hoard of new players as it arrived in Xbox Game Pass. Returning players may find a lot new, too, as Patch 1.4.0 adds a swathe of changes to items and balancing to classes in both the Eternal and Seasonal Realms.

Navigating the vast array of talents available for all five classes and maximizing the efficiency and synergy of your skill points can be quite challenging. We've been exploring various build concepts since the early stages of the game's Early Access, which began in March 2023 and continues through its current Season 4 'Loot Reborn'.

Through this journey, we've uncovered several exceptional builds that will provide a significant advantage against Lilith's formidable forces. In this guide, we'll introduce our favorite builds for each Diablo 4 class. You'll find insights into the skills, upgrades, leveling strategies, and gameplay tactics that make these builds shine. These builds will perform well in both the Eternal Realm and the Seasonal Realm, though with the gear rewards in Seasonal play you'll find it much easier to get these builds off the ground there.

Best Diablo 4 Necromancer build guide: Leveling, endgame, and skills

The Necromancer is a popular class, and it has experienced ups and downs in the meta since the Diablo 4's beta phase and throughout the seasons. With Season 4, however, we should see the class at its strongest with a return to form on minion builds.

The best thing about playing Necromancer is it's probably the easiest class to level, being that you have an army of skeletal minions to back you up in a fight and take aggro. Still, historically, minion builds have been weak in the endgame. For Season 4 Loot Reborn, though, we're getting a significant boost to minion/summoner builds with both Book of the Dead and Paragon node improvements and minions inheriting the player characters' damage stats. If you are playing the seasonal content, you'll be rewarded with some relevant gear for a Minion Army build, so I'd advise targeting this for leveling and endgame. 

This build deals high damage to groups of enemies, making Helltides a breeze. You'll concentrate on powering up your minions and letting them do the heavy lifting while you cheer them on and give moral support.

For this build you'll not be dealing much damage yourself, your goal is to command your minions to do it for you and control the battlefield. Corpse Explosion is equipped to buff your minions and damage, Corpse Tendrils will group up your enemies and inflict vulnerable to tenderize them for your skeletons to finish the job.

Cast Decrepify to slow and weaken enemies, making them easier for your minions to destroy. Use Raise Skeleton and Golem intermittently if any minions go down, and save your Army of the Dead for tough encounters, as it's an incredibly powerful skill with a long cooldown. 

The Necromancer also gets Book of The Dead from level 1, which you will level up throughout your journey to either power up or sacrifice your minions. For this build we want all our minions and a healthy golem to boost our health and damage. You'll get the quest to unlock the Golem ability at level 25 so do that as soon as it becomes available.

  • Skeletal Warriors - Reaper - this will generate corpses for our corpse tendrils
  • Skeletal Mages - Cold - this will generate essence so we aren't short on resource
  • Golem - Blood - this will give us some healing and add another minion to our army

Best Diablo 4 Druid build guide: Leveling, endgame, and skills

(Image credit: Activision Blizzard)

There are lots of great Druid builds in Diablo 4 thanks to the incredible skill diversity in the class' kit. After experimenting with the Druid skill tree extensively — we've tried everything from a Werewolf setup with Rabies and wolf companions to an approach that was completely centered around Storm and Earth Magic — we've settled on a build that takes advantage of the Werebear form's brawling abilities and the amazing Pulverize AoE Core skill.

Early on, you'll use Storm Strike for the 25% damage resistance it provides to counteract the Druid's early-game squishiness. Once you unlock and max out Rampaging Pulverize and pick up Earthen Bulwark for defensive utility, you can swap it for Maul. At this point, Pulverize will frequently Stun foes and deal Overpower damage, while Maul will ensure you're almost always in your tanky Werebear form.

After this, you'll take Trample for its value as a mobility and initiation tool, Mending for extra healing from potions, and Provocation for even more Overpower damage every 20 seconds. Next, get the Grizzly Rage Ultimate for the massive damage and damage resistance buffs the Ultimate gives you, along with passives that bolster your offense and defense like Wild Impulses, Predatory Instinct, and Iron Fur. Ursine Strength raises your health by 20% when you're in Werebear form (you very rarely won't be), so choosing this Key Passive for the build is a no-brainer.

The build truly starts to take off once you get some gear with the Offensive Aspect of the Ursine Horror and Utility Aspect of Quicksand on it (use the Codex of Power if you don't find the Aspects in the wild). The former transforms Pulverize into an Earth skill and adds tectonic spikes that deal damage-over-time (DoT) after each cast, while the latter Slows enemies hit by Earth skills by 25-50%. Together, these two Aspects make Pulverize even deadlier, give it additional utility, and make it compatible with powerful damage buff passives like Crushing Earth and Defiance. 

Respec Raging Pulverize to Primal Pulverize (the Stuns it provides won't get much value anymore now that you're Slowing everything), and cap the build off with Stone Guard, extra levels of Iron Fur, and Defensive Posture for increased Fortify gains from all your Fortify-generating skills.

With your Renown skill points, fully upgrade Earthen Bulwark and invest in Safeguard for even more Fortify tankiness. Upgrading Trample to Natural Trample will help you get Fortify as well, and Circle of Life will make your Earth version of Pulverize restore lost HP with Mending-enhanced healing.

Best Diablo 4 Sorcerer build guide: Leveling, endgame, and skills

(Image credit: Blizzard Entertainment)

The Sorcerer is the best Diablo 4 class for dealing ranged damage, and overall, the Sorcerer skill tree is quite diverse. Ahead of launch, we favored a setup with a combination of Frost and Pyromancy, and for the Loot Reborn season we're returning to a build of Ice and Fire. If you're playing seasonal you'll be rewarded with some gear to boost a Sorcerer Incinerate build, and a new Flamethrower's Aspect will be added in Patch 1.4.0 to really set this build on...fire. Here's what skills to look for to get started with that.

As mentioned above, use Firewall for the first of your Enchantment Slots to generate more burning for the combustion passive. Then, enchanting Fireball will be a lifesaver for taking out large groups of small enemies.

Your skill loop here will involve dropping Blizzard, standing still, and channeling Incinerate (while rebuilding your resource with Fire Bolt). You will also use your defensive and movement skills, such as Teleport, as required.

Best Diablo 4 Rogue build guide: Leveling, endgame, and skills

(Image credit: Activision Blizzard)

Rogue has become one of the most powerful classes in Diablo 4, and Twisting Blades has dominated the meta since launch as a levelling and endgame build. However, with Season 4 Loot Reborn, we're finally taking a different path. The Barrage Rogue is a balanced build for crowds and single-target damage, using both distance and mid-range to succeed. You'll also be rewarded with gear tailored to this build for playing the seasonal content, so why not invest early on?

Barrage itself shoots multiple arrows in a cone to hit multiple targets, but you can move in closer for a 'barrage' of damage on a single target. This build requires a lot of movement, but Rogues are fast, and you'll have Shadow Step equipped to zip you back and forth.

Rotation wise, you will be building your resource with Puncture and unleashing a Barrage of arrows on your foes, but you'll want to 'imbue' your shots first with either cold or shadow. Have Dark Shroud equipped at all times for the bonus movement speed, and use Shadow Step to close in on tougher, single-target enemies. Use Poison Trap for further damage, crowd control and resetting your cooldowns.

At level 15, you'll get a quest to complete to unlock your specialization. Complete this as soon as it becomes available and select the Inner Sight specialization for energy regeneration. Later when you have better gear and aren't struggling for resource, switch to Combo Points for the extra damage.

Best Diablo 4 Barbarian build guide: Leveling, endgame, and skills

(Image credit: Activision Blizzard)

There are several good talents and setups you can put together with the Barbarian skill tree, but for levelling your seasonal character, the season journey will reward you with gear for a Dust Devil Barbarian. This build absolutely popped off in the Diablo 4 PTR and it's a strong contender for top spot on the build tier this season.

This build will clear full screens of enemies once you've got it off the ground, and revolves around the primary move Double Swing. You'll want to build your Fury with Lunging Strike, and spend it with Double Swing while inflicting vulnerable and bleed on your enemies, you're going to really start feeling the power when you get your hands on the Aspects which launch Dust Devils with your attacks. These and other essential Aspects will be listed below the skill points.

We've chosen Tough as Nails here to trigger bleed in our enemies, and you'll use Leap to position yourself around the battlefield. Pop your War Cry for a damage buff when fighting Elites.
