Season 33 Tier List: Group Trash Killer Rankings
This page goes over the current state of each class in Season 33 in respect to their best group trash killing build capabilities and provides comparative ranking of the builds.
Top Group Trash Killer Builds for each Class
For most 4-player group compositions, the DPS roles are split into two forms: AoE and single target. The AoE DPS is in charge of clearing the rift through maximizing area damage and huge density pulls while the single target dps is known as the RGK, or rift guardian killer. Because the damage styles are so unique, you usually have to separate them into two different DPS for optimal results. Here is the list of the best AoE builds, or trash killer builds for each class.
Barbarian
Empowered by the Legacy of Raekor set, this Barbarian build emphasizes ranged devastation and pulverizes enemies into the ground with Ancient Spear Boulder Toss, with a vast array of buffs and tremendous mobility at your disposal.
Crusader
Empowered by the Aegis of Valor set, Fist of the Heavens marks the return of one of the most iconic Crusader builds, as surges of lightning crash from the heavens and envelop your enemies in deadly arcs.
Demon Hunter
Using the trapper-specific powers of the Natalya's Vengeance set, this Demon Hunter build elevates the potential of Spike Traps through a deadly Caltrops combo.
Monk
Based on the versatile powers of the Legacy of Dreams bonus, the LoD Wave of Light Monk unites multiple legendary powers into an explosive, bursty and durable whole.
Necromancer
Combining the power of Death Nova-empowering legendaries with the flexible Legacy of Dreams bonus, the LoD Death Nova Necromancer is an AoE-centric, burst damage build.
Witch Doctor
This Witch Doctor build offers a spellcasting-oriented, timing-sensitive, and quite bursty playstyle that uses the Mundunugu's Regalia set to empower its volleys of spiritual devastation.
Wizard
This Wizard build offers a high-burst, timing-sensitive playstyle that brings devastating damage. This build excels at clearing massive amounts of grouped up monsters and elites, and brings a mechanically and visually satisfying playstyle to GR pushing — both solo and in parties.
