I am just about to make the jump to WT4, and starting to look at options other than my rend/ bleed barbarian. So what is everyone else playing? What do you like / dislike about your build so far?
Level 70 Bone Spirit Necro on WT4. I cannot get enough crit chance %. I am willing to do unspeakable things for crit chance %.
As a necromancer I am pretty sure you have already done unspeakable things.
I’m on the same boat except I’m WT4 lvl 57. I can’t seem to fight crit chance on anything useful. Still using some min lvl 30~40 items because they have the best synergies…
WT2 here, haven’t had a huge amount of time to play and I’m new to Diablo but currently at level 41 playing as a sorcerer/pyromancer and very much enjoying it. From what I understand, the other sorc paths are better for elite damage late game, but I just love the fire spread crowd control. From the world events I’ve done, it also seems like pyromancers aren’t very common as I haven’t seen another.
I‘m quite the Diablo noob so I’ve been playing WT1 and am currently at level 17. It’s been quite easy though so I might switch to WT2 and see how that goes for me.
I’m playing a necromancer and I’m not really sure about build. Mostly using the Blood Surge, Blood Lance, Explode corpse and a few others whose name I’ve forgotten. Working out well for me so far!
Pushed to WT4 at level 57 with a twin blades Rogue. Really enjoyable. Had been on Necro, but the ability combos have been so much more fun on Rogue.
The Twin Blade rogue seems like it would be a lot of fun to play, and the overall mobility of the rogue is just hard to pass up.
The nerfs hurt, but still fun to play
Still in WT2 here. I haven’t finished the main campaign. I don’t have tons of time to play during the week unfortunately, plus I started as a Necromancer first and was feeling weak around level 45 so I switched to a Rogue, which I played during beta and loved. I still love it now. At level 53 with the Rogue and playing a Poison/Death Trap - Flurry build. I melt most enemies and constantly have Death Trap up.
I tend to like DoT builds, so was really interested in a poison rogue. Ended up going barb because I watched Conan the Barbarian too many times back in the day.
Can you hear the lamentations of their women?
The lamentations of Lilith are the best part.
WT4 Arc Lash Sorc, I make things explode so much and I don’t have to worry about staying at range because my Basic is melee anyway. The amount of cc is high so I stack damage against cced targets and go for execute change to trigger the Fireball passive and watch packs of mobs just erupt into a series of explosions. It’s so satisfying. I was going Pyro because I liked the big snake Ultimate visual, but I got over it when I saw the damage I was putting out.
Still wt1, playing through the story. Act 3 done, just need to clear up a few side quests, lvl 45ish bow rogue.
I just pick the skills that seem to work best after unlocking each new tier and now I’m filling in some passives that seem to support what I’m doing.
Haven’t unlocked lots of aspects nor could I afford to imbue them on new gear, I mostly don’t even bother with gems for now.
I don’t know yet when it is going to stop with story and levelling and turn into a grind for gear acquisition, I’ll try it out but if it doesn’t really click for me I might just pick another class to level.
I never really bothered with “botting” hundreds or thousands of Baal/Pindle/council runs in D2, so who knows.

WT3 atm, Necro, focus on exploding corpses and DOT. It is fun standing in the middle of a pack, pulling everything in, and seeing their health melt away
WT2 still after finally beating the campaign. Currently trying to find all of the Lilith Alrars before I try and make the jump to WT3. Using the Necro is fun when it works but I’ve definitely felt it to start getting weaker as I level up. Might try Poison Trap Rogue since that’s what I played in the beta.
I tried doing the altars but it’s such a grind. If you start getting burned out just use a map.
How do you do it without a map? Just search blindly everywhere?
If you opened up the in-game map and just went into every crevice you’d find them all since they’re not really hidden. It would just take hours.
Seems like an incredible waste of time to not look up the locations. The Altars are such a chore. I’m still gathering them and it feels utterly terrible, but at the same time I feel “forced” to do it because I play HC and prob need all the stats…
Only level 65 rogue, but man, rapid fire destroys once it comes online, AoE can still be kinda rough if I go full brainless, but I can still easily wreck house in nightmare 24 maps(highest I’ve tried so far), even the bosses just melt.
I’m currently level 54 on a sorcerer, in WT3 - I’m currently using a Frost Nova build and am definitely having some issues. I can get a decent amount of enemies cleared when Frost Nova is up, but when that is on cooldown I suffer tremendously. I’m also using Ice Shards with the aspect that gives you additional damage when a barrier is up (running Ice Armor + Flame Shield) and that helps a little bit, but I’ve gotta say it doesn’t really feel all that great.
However, I’m fairly new to ARPGs in general - I’d just started getting the hang of D3 (I played as Wizard for my first season, and then fell in love with Monk)… So in general I think I just have a lot of learning to do.
Make sure you have the thing that gives a chance to reset defensive skills when you’re hit.
Frost nova is a defensive skill technically. Short circuiting the cooldown is hugely helpful.
Homie and I just started WT3 yesterday and have been having a blast. LVL51 Druid Pulverize build. My solo toon is Necro, but he’s still leving at 35
Pulverize looks so cool. May be the first time in any game I have wanted to try a druid.
I just hit 65 on WT3 as a Sorc. I actually just recently switched to an arc lash build after stubbornly plowing through on a leveling chain lightning build. For the most part, it’s okay albeit a bit boring. I was thinking of switching to rogue as that was my class during the betas but was going to wait until I hit WT4 and see how that power spike is on ancestral gear. I’m clearing close to tier 20 nightmare dungeons (but haven’t tried 20 yet) so I may just go for the capstone dungeon.
I started with Druid, went landslide because the legendary gear i got led me that way. Could not complete the capstone boss and then started a Sorcerer to play with friends. Fell in love with Ice Shards. So only lvl 40 now but no regret. To me Druid felt like work; Sorc is fun.
