Step into the world of Barbarian in Diablo 4! Explore our in-depth Barbarian class guides, including the best gear, builds and legendaries.

Barbarian

Druid

Necromancer

Rogue

Sorcerer

Spiritborn


<p>The most powerful class in Season 6 by a long shot is getting even more buffs! But relax your pitchforks, it&#8217;s only for underperforming builds. </p>



<p>The Spiriborn has dominated its inaugural season, and it will until the very end. Despite the other classes getting some serious buffs in the mid-season patch, they still won&#8217;t reach the heights of the best Spiritborn builds. But the changes coming this Tuesday with the patch are squarely aimed at the weak builds for the new class. So, let&#8217;s take a look. </p>

<h2>Boost your Eternal Character</h2>
<p>Return to the Eternal realm and wield your newfound power with incredible fervor, wanderer.</p>
<p>Starting on <b>November 19</b>, raise an Eternal Character to new heights by using the limited-time Welcome Back Booster.</p>
<p>You can select 1 Character on the Eternal Realm to instantly grant the following boosts:</p>
<ul>
<li>Boost to Level 50</li>
<li>3 different powerful builds to choose from for your given Class
<ul>
<li>Full set of Legendary Items</li>
<li>Completed Skill Tree to suit chosen build</li>

Note that if your Eternal character is already Level 50, you’ll still receive the Legendary items and option for the builds geared towards your class. If you also own the <b>Vessel of Hatred expansion</b>, you’ll be able to harness this powerful boost for <b>two characters</b> on the Eternal Realm.</p>

<h2>A Merry Time for Diablo IV</h2>
<p></p>
<p><a class="lightbox" href="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/page_media/6V8W9OCCHWT01731541598639.png" style="text-align: -webkit-center;" target="_blank" data-analytics="exit-link"><img decoding="async" alt="" src="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/page_media/6V8W9OCCHWT01731541598639.png" class="no-border no-shadow"></a></p>
<p>The past year brought many changes to Sanctuary. If you haven’t returned since Season of the Construct in January, many quality-of-life changes have made this the best time to play Diablo IV.</p>
<p>Progression is faster and more rewarding. Leveling has been updated, molded, and augmented to improve the feel of gaining power as you rise through the ranks. The Level cap has been adjusted and difficulty tiers updated, making it faster to get to the endgame when playing in the Seasonal realm or with fresh alt characters.</p>
<p>Many of the core modes you spend time slaying in have received a bevy of changes, including Helltide, The Pit, Infernal Hordes, Endgame Bosses and more. The vicious Andariel, Duriel, and Varshan were introduced as brutal endgame fights to master. To help conquer these challenging fights, Party Finder was introduced to make it easier to group up and take down these incredible challenges.</p>
<p>Itemization, Tempering, Masterworking, Legendary Glyphs, item power, affixes, Codex of Power, and Mythic Uniques were all reworked and tweaked. Their core systems were reinvigorated, making them more powerful and easier to use. Eternal characters now enjoy realm wide Paragon, increased Paragon, new Skills and broad Paragon updates.</p>
<p>Plus, the Vessel of Hatred expansion brought the endgame challenges of Dark Citadel, Kurast Undercity, Mercenaries, a whole new Zone, and an all-new class with the Spiritborn.</p>
<p>Thank you for being with us on this journey with Diablo IV, and if you’re returning to Sanctuary—welcome back to the Burning Hells!</p>

<p> <a name="Beware" data-analytics="exit-link"></a></p>
<h2>Beware the Red-Cloaked Horror’s Return</h2>
<p>The demon of crimson dismemberment rallies their Blightfiend minions for another malicious assault on Sanctuary’s denizens. Will you rise to the task and thwart their frozen grasp on the realm?</p>
<p></p>
<p><a class="lightbox" href="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/page_media/WN3TMNU26DF81731541599080.png" style="text-align: -webkit-center;" target="_blank" data-analytics="exit-link"><img decoding="async" alt="" src="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/page_media/WN3TMNU26DF81731541599080.png" class="no-border no-shadow"></a></p>
<p>From <b>November 19, 10 a.m. PST—December 3, 10 a.m. PST</b>, the Red-Cloaked Horror has a chance to spawn in Helltide, instead of a Hellborne, while Blightfiends spread their malice within Helltide ambushes. The Red-Cloaked Horror also has a chance to appear in the Infernal Hordes and Dungeons to ambush you from the shadows. Defeat these frigid foes for increased rewards, such as Cinders, Burning Aether, and more.</p>
<p>The return of the Red-Cloaked Horror brings good tidings as well, for slaying the hulking beast is guaranteed to earn you the coveted—and improved—Gileon’s Brew. For 30 minutes, this fabled Elixir increases your damage dealt to enemies by 20%, causes enemies to routinely drop additional Herbs and Crafting Materials, and grants 15% increased Experience. Gileon’s Brew also has a chance to drop from Tortured Gifts in Helltide throughout the limited-time event.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How the Boost Works</h2>



<p>If you own <strong>Diablo 4</strong>, you will receive <strong>1 boost</strong>. If you also own <strong>Vessel of Hatred</strong>, you&#8217;ll get <strong>2 boosts</strong>. The boosts are limited to <strong>Eternal Realm players</strong>.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Spiritborn Trial</h2>



<p>Blizzard will soon offer a free trial with the new Spiritborn class, which is great for players who still didn&#8217;t get a chance to play one!</p>



<p>For more information check out our <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/news/mid-season-campfire-chat-overview-balance-changes-patch-details/">mid-season Campfire Chat recap</a> and stay tuned for the blog post on Thursday detailing everything and more!</p>



<p></p>


Diablo 4’s Welcome Back Boost: Level 50 and Altars of Lilith Unlocked!


<p>Certain shrines have been the subject of many community complaints for a while now. Conduit definitely won that particular race and has been the laughing stock of Season 6. Luckily Blizzard have announced a buff to three of the most problematic shrines, including the dreaded Conduit! </p>



<p>Not only are the Shrines getting some numerical buffs to start with, they will also be scaling based on player and Paragon level! This should help Artillery and Blast Wave at least, but we&#8217;ll just have to wait and see with Conduit.</p>
