↖ Companion's Role

Diablo 4's mechanics have shifted, making companions a crucial component of our build. With the diminishing returns on multiplicative damage from gear stats, we've turned to aspects, the Paragon board, and uniques to maximize our damage output. Companions play a central role in this. By using the My core skills deal an additional 20% damage for each active companion aspect and gain one additional companion, we stack up to nine companions, resulting in an astounding 180% multiplicative damage increase for our core skills.

 

↖ The Power of Grizzly Rage

Initially, we faced the dilemma of choosing between companions and Grizzly Rage, a powerful ultimate skill. However, we stumbled upon a game-changing revelation. Even when using Grizzly Rage, our companions remain active in the background. This allows us to enjoy the best of both worlds. Grizzly Rage provides a 200% crit damage boost, spirit cost reductions, and fortify, while our companions continue to enhance our core skills' damage. This synergy elevates our damage to extraordinary levels.
