Diablo 4’s Season 2 update is highlighted by these truly broken builds.
Of course, even the healthiest update will still result in builds that are simply broken.
So, yes, I think the word broken applies.
Before we get into that, though, you may notice there isnt a Barbarian build on this list.
If you want to play Barbarian, consider a Whirlwind or Death Blow/Upheaval build.
At least thats what happened the momentDiablo 4s Season 2 update was released.
The strategy for this build is pretty much the same as it ever was.
The gear and skills youll be taking help ensure that Twisting Blades maintains nearly constant AoE uptime.
In the past, those versions of the build were prized for their safety and high AoE damage potential.
What elevates Poison Imbument this time around, though, is the new Unique item called XFals Corroded Signet.
That ring turns your damage over time effects into a massive damage bomb that impacts any nearby enemies.
In essence, it turns your incredibly powerful single-target abilities into nuclear weapons.
Oh, and did I mention that this build almost never runs out of resources and is surprisingly tanky?
The two big pieces of this build are Gravitational Aspect and Flickerstep.
With the upgrades youll be taking, Ball Lightning strikes have a high chance of generating Crackling Energy.
However, Flickerstep ends up being a surprisingly strong addition to that strategy.
That item really gives you the cooldown reduction consistency that previous versions of this build lacked.
Ultimately (pun intended), I think its better to aim for overkill in this instance.
Honestly, some of those new Vampiric abilities almost seem custom-made to support this build.
Again, the beauty of this build is that it basically operates on auto-pilot.
The name InfiniMist refers to the Necromancers Blood Mist ability.
Previously, Blood Mist was largely just an Immunity granting movement ability that allowed Necromancers to escape danger.
Well, its much more than that now.
From there, you enter Blood Mist.
Interestingly enough, though, its actually the Metamorphosis Vampiric Power that sneakily contributes to this builds broken status.
See, that ability allows you to turn into a cloud of bats when you evade through enemies.
While that comes with various offensive and defensive benefits, it also parks your active Bone Storm effect.
If that was an innate ability, every Necromancer would run it.
It turns out that is very much the new meta.
This particular build revolves around a powerful new Unique item called Dolmen Stone.
On its own, thats a very powerful effect that deals massive damage to anything that gets near you.
That combination of abilities allows you to ensure almost constant Boulder Hurricane uptime.
Either you are casting it naturally, or it is automatically being cast by virtue of already being active.
But lets go one step further than that.
