Top Solo Speed T16 Builds for each Class

While solo speed GR farming is all about balance, T16 is a much lower threshold, and your build priorities change heavily. Almost every build in the game can clear T16 with very little effort when set up correctly, meaning speed is the biggest factor. You want builds with screen-clearing damage patterns that allow you to clear quickly. You will always have the damage, but the build has to bring the speed.

For T16 content, you will either be doing bounties or greater rift key farming in nephalem rifts. Bounties require less killing, so usually you will value dashes and blinks more, but rifts will value large range AoE more because of the higher density of enemies throughout the rifts. Realistically, both of these activities just want builds that are extremely fast and do huge AoE damage.

1.1.

Barbarian

This mobile, DoT-based Barbarian build utilizes the Wrath of the Wastes set for its Rend-empowering aspects, and adds a slew of synergistic legendary items into a single, adaptable and very lethal package.

1.2.

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.

1.3.

Demon Hunter

Using the powers of the Gears of Dreadlands set, this Demon Hunter build combines the deadly precision of Hungering Arrow Hungering Arrow with the elegance of movement and battlefield maneuverability of Strafe Strafe.

1.4.

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.

1.5.

Necromancer

Using the adaptable and versatile Legacy of Dreams bonus as well as a slew of items that empower summoner builds, the LoD Singularity "Rat" Necromancer emerges as a powerful Skeletal Mage variant.

1.6.

Witch Doctor

This spellcasting-oriented, timing-sensitive, and quite bursty playstyle uses the Mundunugu's Regalia set for its volleys of spiritual devastation.

1.7.

Wizard

Leaning into the summoner Wizard fantasy, the Typhon Hydra build relies on a combination of ramping attacks and pet empowerment to fuel a simple, yet very flashy and capable playstyle with The Typhon's Veil set.
