This page is based on pre-Season 7 theorycrafting. The build tier list may change after the season launches.

This list ranks the builds based on how fast they can clear open-world or endgame content such as Nightmare Dungeons, The Pit, Infernal Hordes, or Kurast Undercity on low-to-mid World Tier difficulty for the purpose of farming gear and experience. The higher the tier in the list above, the better the speed farming performance.

Please also note that the rankings are based on a max Level (60) character with multiple Paragon boards unlocked, so lower-level characters will be weaker regardless of the build, but the relative rankings should not differ much at lower levels.

This build tier list is up to date as of January 20th, 2025, and accounts for all the balance patches since Diablo 4 was launched (including seasons).

If you want to learn more about the best endgame push builds, boss killer builds, leveling builds, or overall class rankings, you can check out our other tier lists below. Simply click on the one you are interested in.

Keep in mind that these tier lists are based on our own views and experiences, and that they may change over time as the game changes and new updates are released. In the end, the best class and build for any player, is the one that matches your playstyle, preferences, and goals. We recommend everyone to try out and have fun with different combinations and options, because each class has unique abilities, and players should choose one that fits their version of fun.
