↖ New Class Rankings

In Patch 1.1.1, various classes are getting adjustments that are bringing them closer in terms of power. While Sorcerers and Barbarians are getting some love in terms of buffs, it's important to note that they won't suddenly become the top-tier classes. Despite the changes, the overall class rankings might remain relatively high. As of now, the class ranking seems to remain relatively unchanged:

 

1. Rogue
   
2. Necromancer
   
3. Barbarian
   
4. Sorcerer
   

 

Sorcerer Changes	Sorcerers are getting some exciting buffs in this patch, making them more resilient across all their builds. While Sorcerers might not rise to the top of the charts, they are definitely improving. Fireball, in particular, is receiving multiple improvements, significantly boosting its performance. This might lift Fireball from its lower position in the endgame tier list.
Barbarian Changes	Barbarians are also in for some changes. While not every build is getting significant buffs, there's an effort to bring various builds closer together in terms of power. The Walking Arsenal build seems to be receiving a substantial buff, possibly propelling it to the top of the Barbarian builds.
Inter-Class Balance	The developers are working to improve the balance within each class and then extend that balance to other classes as a whole. This patch focuses on closing the gap between various builds within a class, promoting diversity and allowing different builds to shine.
Other Class Changes	The Rogue class might see an interesting improvement for the False Arrow build. Necromancers will receive some unique buffs, especially for the Severance build. Druids are receiving small improvements, mainly targeting the early game with generator skills and companions.
Nightmare Dungeon Changes	Beyond class adjustments, the patch brings changes to the nightmare dungeons. Monster density is expected to increase significantly, leading to more efficient farming and leveling. However, the change in boss health might pose a challenge for builds with lower single-target damage.

 

↖ Endgame Tier List

This list categorizes level 50-100 experience after unlocking all activities. Includes Nightmare Dungeons, Tree of Whispers, Helltide, PvP farming, and World Bosses. Top-tier builds level efficiently through World Tiers, while lower tiers excel in specific tasks but struggle in competitive content.

↖ Tier 100 Nightmare Dungeon Farming Builds Tier List

This list ranks optimal builds for efficiently farming Tier 100 Nightmare Dungeons. While most builds can complete a Tier 100 Dungeon, the speed and ease of clearing vary significantly based on your chosen build. Top-tier builds swiftly conquer any Nightmare Dungeon, effortlessly defeating bosses. Lower-tier builds complete the task more slowly, relying heavily on gear and demanding cautious dungeon progression.
