In Diablo 3, players get to pick classes and build them in specific ways. As a result of this versatility, anyone can play their dream classes and builds – within reason. However, there are always builds that tower above the rest.
Should you be curious about Diablo 3’s best builds for Season 24, you’ve come to the right place. The metagame doesn’t stop evolving, and it’s good practice to check these changes regularly. Your favorite build may rise to the top one day.
Tier List Introduction
It would be impossible to explain the reason every single build is in a particular tier. Each build will also have its class accompanying it.
This tier list compares which builds are the best for solo gameplay. If you’re looking for a group tier list, we, unfortunately, can’t help you here. Even so, you should stay and look at the solo builds for when you’re playing alone.
Currently, there are seven classes in Diablo 3, namely:
- Barbarian
- Crusader
- Demon Hunter
- Monk
- Necromancer
- Witch Doctor
- Wizard
Below is the tier list for the best solo builds so far:
