Just a casual player and been since 1996. Your dedication to video uploads and content are unbelievable man. Much respect to a rapidly dwindling community.
hm... not so much effort anymore when you reuse footage from S17 PTR!. He doesent play this game, just looking at leadbords then reuse footage and record a video, all done in about 2 hours i guess. But im not complaining about the video, im here watching it for fun but call it an effort from hes side would be a lie.
great job. As someone who isn't going to play enough to get to the really high GR's, some things I would be interested about are: 1. best speed builds 2. builds that are just fun to play, not super squishy or complicated to play. 3. builds that are easy to gear for. 4. some ways to progress through a season without getting bored before getting all the gear you need for a build!
The BEST build is my Crusader Teleport and Gargantuan build. It benefits from Simulacrum, and can easily clear level 1 GRs within twelve minutes or so.
You are so devoted to review, write lengthy guides and very articulate on every season of this dying game. Really enjoyed watching your videos Rhykker, even after I stopped playing D3 for quite awhile. 👏
I usually push for the end-tiers and I keep up-to-date with the game, but man, as every new season closes in I spy on your channel like a hawk for the Top builds video just cause it's a really good reminder and memory from when I was new to the game. Hope we'll have a solid transition into D4, with new Rhykker content there, if it comes out in our lifetime...
Im a noob ..bought d3 today and im already enjoying the hell out it ..your videos are helping alot but I'm so new to this genre of gaming that smts I get so overwhelmed with the amount of content there is..thanks alot for this video ..helps
you should do a video on speed run builds for each class and the best ones for each class for greater rifts, regular rifts, bounties, and hellfire amulets
Hey Rhykker, thanks for all your videos! They are my go to every new season of Diablo! Where can I find the build for the Natalya's Rapid fire set? I dont see it in the list below.
WoL Monk is the fastest with Vyrs Chantodo Wiz not far behind. UE multi-shot is a good choice as well but not quite as fast due to not being able to jump over shit. Crusader has a good late game speed build but it's a LoN build so not something you can really do early.
It would be interesting to see a guide each season comparing just the Haedrig's gift sets by themselves, no outside legendaries or BIS items added. Just compare the basics of the set and the BIS skills of the class to go with it. That way nothing is RNG dependent.
Hate to see monks capped at B tier. I just built the LON WOL and I’m loving it. Although it’s still rather low I can clear a GR75 in 3 and a half minutes
It took me years to just complete one build with set lol. My necromancer inarius bonestorm that I took from Rykkers build which still kicks ass and makes my wife jealous that I carry our coop team to greater rifts victories lol cheers.
Hey Rhyker, you should update the description of this overview and put in the link to the video of LOD Thorns :) I was dissapointed that there was no video until I found out there is! Thank you very much
Hey Rhykker! For the LON DOD WD build, you mention you can swap in some items, but the link to the video from season 17 doesn't have the items you swap. Also, which gem do you take out to put in the new LON enabling gem? Thank you :)
The items you can swap are new for this season, hence they weren't featured in those videos. Check out Anthony Evans' (Bigdaddyden) videos for WD builds and in-depth guides.
Took a long break from Diablo, but enjoyed the hell out S17 and looking forward to S18 in about 36 hours. Had 2 classes I pumped a lot of hours into last season (LoN thorns Necro and hota ik barb) starting with a monk this season and will go from there.
How does the Squirts buff work exactly? It sounds straight forward I know, but is it simply you having a damage buff, and as soon as you take damage you lose it, but then you gain the damage buff back immediately as soon as you stop taking damage? Just wondering if there is a specific time limit between losing the buff and gaining it back, kinda like PoE with something like "after not taking damage recently".
Ugh this is exactly what I was afraid would happen with the LoN gem. I've had my fill of LoN gearing but here we are only vyr chantodo managing to do better than LoN builds. Yet another LoN season, have fun rolling for those ancients.
Rhykker I don't know if this is old news or good news but I saw a video of PTR 2.6.6. Necromancer and he had almost permanent LotD up with Legacy of Dreams and other stuff that made him speed thru a GR, would that be a top tier Necro? I forgot the video name but the MessSchmit + Gogak + other cool downs made it look legit and potential top Necro.
Hey! That is the blood & essence necro you thinking of i guess but thats not a LoD build. It will be a really good speedarming build well over 100 but it will not be the top pushing build. All props to Lord fluffy ua-cam.com/video/BSAlXa9MPrE/v-deo.html
Thank You , My gaming Brother, I have been playing Diablo 3 since Season 3 . You are very detailed and very educational to the new player, where you slow down and explain things so the new person can learn and value multiple playthroughs.
This looks like back to the roots because I remember playing darts wd way before it was popular (when we used to fight in a portal to determine our greater rift level).
Yo I just came up with a cool marauders multishot build! You won’t be able to keep vengeance up forever but I include it anyway, you have all 6 pieces of marauders, yangs recurve for multishot dmg, bombardiers rucksack for extra turrets, dead mans legacy in the cube for more multishot dmg, focus and restraint for more dmg build up, Zoe’s secret(belt) for toughness since you have all the pets from marauders, wraps of clarity( more toughness), visage of gunes(maybe optional, in the cube) for dmg reduction when vengeance is up, obsidian ring of the zodiac to help with all the cool downs(in the cube), squirts necklace for more dmg(caution you take more dmg). For the gems I used trapped(duh), zei’s stone of vengeance(damage from a distance and chance to stun), and stricken(dmg build up) Skills: evasive fire(focus)/multishot(arsenal)/sentry(polar station)/vault(tumble)/vengeance(seethe)/companion(dnm) Passives: custom engineering(more sentries)/ambush(dmg)/ballistics(synergize with multishot arsenal)/awareness(I hate dying) I was able to do a GR 100 with what I threw together in about 10 minutes...I have a few low augments, a lot of paragon(1532) it was tested off season 😬, my trapped is a high rank(101), but my zeis rank is pretty low(41)...
The build was semi optimized... I was mostly running around during the GR 100, got pinned by 2 elite packs who popped my awareness and made me panic and try to fight from the other room(archane enchanted sucks), the first rift area was an act three dungeon so there were a lot of walls blocking my multishot arch, I’m on console so gameplay may be drastically different on pc
I’m guessing vengeance could be swapped for something I’m not sure what though... I have played all the good DH builds, Shadows Impale(my favorite, obviously cause I’m on console), UE Multishot(speed rifting), Marauders Cluster Arrow, UE Primary Grenades, Natalya Grenades, Natalya Marauders Cluster Arrow Sentries, LoN Rapid Fire, I even also tried LoN Fan of Knives(it SUCKED). I made a demon hunter for all of these builds(except Lon FoK 🤮) The build I described above was me coming up with a build on my own, it’s not the best for self management, but GR100 first try pretty decent.
I don’t see how the new LoN (LoD) Singularity could work in Squirt’s Necklace or Messerschmidt’s...on top of making a squishy build even squishier, I really don’t feel like the bonus damage from Squirt’s Necklace can outweigh the 15 full seconds of additional Simulacrum uptime you get with Haunted Visions. You can’t really Cube it either, since the build pretty much has all its remaining jewelry slots tied up with CoE, Nailuj’s Evol and Krysbin’s. Same with Messerschmidt’s: the build uses Scythe of the Cycle in the weapon hand and Reilena’s in the Cube. Losing either of those results in a drastic reduction in damage. So where would the Messerschmidt’s fit in that build? The way I see it, LoN Singularity in season 18 is just straight up worse than the past season because you lose a gem slot for Zei’s and the potential benefits from the updated items don’t outweigh the losses of replacing existing pieces.
I wish the wizard would have an "Icebird" set to buff up the Frost Beam & Ice build. Frost beam is my favorite ice spell. I like it better than the Frozen Orb.
Would have been nice to see stepping on a circle of trying grant a duration buff rather than forcing you to stand in it the entire time, to offset the melee disadvantage.
I miss the recaps of how things ended up at the end of last season, compared to your start of the season predictions. Also I think saying what GR the S tier is expected to reach helps to put into perspective what the other builds are able to do.
Would you still consider using squirts necklace for HC? since you take 50% more damage? I’m thinking on using the UE DH for HC. Before I’ve always used the hellfire to get the cheat death passive.
Just got a primal ancient Chantodo Wand yesterday and while trying it out, I got a primal ancient chantodo source from the first elite I killed! PRAISE THE RNG GODS!
last season i made a necro and it was a challenge getting the gr80 early on.... so i went vyrs and within one day of playing i was doing gr 90.... dont waste ur time playing anythign but vyrs if u like the build and playstyle. get a halo of karin and its mindless Survivability as well.. after a couple weeks i was farming gr100 in 5 minute solo with 60 trillion crits... easymode.. it is so easy to get the pieces of gear as they are all set items..
I think u need to adjust the effect of the triune things more. Build like rapid-fire are completely screwed just bcos they don't have the mobility to gain benefit from the circles, on contrast, ranged build like WoL, MS should have more advantage.
Cube the Ring of Royal Grandeur. Craft Captain Crimson's Belt and either the Boots or Legs. Flawless Royal Diamond in Helm, 10% CDR from Paragon, and Dawn in the Cube will give you permanent Vengeance uptime. This lets you build more Crit Chance/Damage or Area Damage in slots where you needed to roll for CDR on other items. Wear Squirt's Necklace to make up for the loss of Convention of Elements. Part of what makes Captain Crimson's so good for Multishot builds is the fact they get a free up-to-55% Resource Cost Reduction on Yang's Recurve. No other class gets that much generic RCR for free. Since Captain Crimson's gives you damage reduction based on your RCR, equipping the full set bonus with a well-rolled Yang's Recurve is giving you >70% damage reduction without even having to stack any more RCR than you normally would. Multishot builds were always a bit squishy, so this set helps that tremendously.
@@RaimaNd That's actually a really good question that I don't know the answer to because I didn't test it. However, if it does give you additional RCR (as in, it increases the RCR on your character sheet) instead of discounting your ability costs in some other magical way, I don't see why it wouldn't also affect the damage reduction from the Crimson's set.
Me too ^^ So according to the video, the LON DOD is in Meta S? Do you think that his build of season 17 (patch 2.6.5) will be the same as for this S18: ua-cam.com/video/6zTR8yg4HbI/v-deo.html
@Rhykker can you do us all a favor a tell us if Captain Crimson's 3 bonus include total percentage of cooldown or the sheet one with diminished returns? The patch clearly states total percentage of cdr that's why it is so blurry for all, I checked a lot of source and nobody knows exactly...
Knuckle_Bump Vyrs Chantodo is really easy to play. There are a ton of videos on it! But, despite what he says you can’t use Squirts. You are sticking with a travelers pledge, Compass rose and Obsidian ring. Bazooka wizard which I have a ton of experience with is by no means an easy build. It’s probably one of the harder specs to play in the game. Watch Lexyutv or do a google search on him.
What do we think about the new stone gauntlets now that you can reduce the malus via things like wrath of the berserker,vengeance,etc. and that gem that remove control-impairing effects?

This will be my first season experience in d3! Soooo excited!
Good luck!
Hey Rhykker when are we getting the updated S18 versions of the build? Thank you for your contributions to the community

Always follow your videos for seasons. I can't find the natalya rapid fire build though.
Also looking for the Natalya rapid fire xD
I see, Rhykker took some german classes and now can pronounce Messerschmidts correctly :)
Blubb Blubber mister smiths xd
Depends. I’ve heard it pronounced “messa-shmeeds” as well.
I really appreciate you keeping up with all the top builds. You're one of the most knowledgeable Diablo personalities out there. Keep it up!
Props to Rhykker for still making the "doubled it" reference.
That's like all the way back from the OG days.
Really sad about the lack of love for monks right now. Lon is just too powerful.
ikr?! monk is my favorite class but it never gets any love
Every season......
What a suprise no monk build in the top .... Anyway thank you very much for your work and effort on the video.
These list are always bs anyways, not once has it ever been anywhere accurate
you should do a video on speed run builds for each class and the best ones for each class for greater rifts, regular rifts, bounties, and hellfire amulets
Hey Rhykker, thanks for all your videos! They are my go to every new season of Diablo! Where can I find the build for the Natalya's Rapid fire set? I dont see it in the list below.
I hope you know how much your content is appreciated, man - because it is a lot.
Thank You!
Chantodo was in the Tier A at the start but it was clearly upgraded to S tier during the season. It was more powerful than people expected it.
Recently coming back to Diablo 3 after a long break, love the video man keep it up!
Just came back to the community and huge respects to you to having this much dedication to this awesome game
hopefully we can get some monk upgrades this season, 2 wizard builds in S tier and the highest monk build is only B, sad panda. :(
These tier names alone make this tier list top tier :)
Rhykker preseason video is essential for anyone
I would absolutely LOVE if you did the same thing for Speed T16 farming, where S tier would basically be the fastest to clear T16 and farm GRs.
Can you make tier list for speedbuilds ?
WoL Monk is the fastest with Vyrs Chantodo Wiz not far behind. UE multi-shot is a good choice as well but not quite as fast due to not being able to jump over shit. Crusader has a good late game speed build but it's a LoN build so not something you can really do early.
@@Zasaramel so WOL monk is faster than UH DH? I might have to try that one
@@nukle2fangz yea I'd say wol wins because dashing strike is way better than vaulting around
@@Zasaramel What about LoN Mages? Rat runs, etc.
@@LazyBrett and is that lon wol? Or inna?
Where is UE Multishot and what is the difference between marauders and multishot??
It would be interesting to see a guide each season comparing just the Haedrig's gift sets by themselves, no outside legendaries or BIS items added. Just compare the basics of the set and the BIS skills of the class to go with it. That way nothing is RNG dependent.
watched it from 0 to the end, loved it.
I dont even play diablo 3 anymore, but i love what you do and still watch entire vids, ty for this dude.
LoN Bombardment Crusader didn't even make the list :( I miss my horsey cannon!
That build was fun but does not perform well enough anymore :/
Hate to see monks capped at B tier. I just built the LON WOL and I’m loving it. Although it’s still rather low I can clear a GR75 in 3 and a half minutes
Hey Rhykker, time to do a cemetery builds (builds that used to be good but died out)
It took me years to just complete one build with set lol. My necromancer inarius bonestorm that I took from Rykkers build which still kicks ass and makes my wife jealous that I carry our coop team to greater rifts victories lol cheers.
Thanks for making the new seasons “Rhykker Official!” So many choices!! Can’t make up my mind!!’
Thanks for keeping the game alive mate. Appreciate it.

that is what happends
I always watch your video before I start my new D3 season build. Thanks and keep up the good job!
Took a long break from Diablo, but enjoyed the hell out S17 and looking forward to S18 in about 36 hours. Had 2 classes I pumped a lot of hours into last season (LoN thorns Necro and hota ik barb) starting with a monk this season and will go from there.
Been waiting for this, thanks bruv
Rhyker, you awesome human being
I basically start every season with your build ranking video
Thanks, mate, I appreciate the time you spend !
I haven't played D3 since RoS dropped. Is it still worth getting into?
Great coverage of the new season. I'm definitely rolling with the chantodo build since I've never tried it.

I've always started with Demon Hunter for that MS juicyness.. But Barbs having the Raekor start is soo juicy. Can't wait!
Hey Rhykker, could you upload DH Natalya RF guide for the new season? Thanks!
Where is Rhykker when we need a detailed tier list on the day of new season? :O
Amazing video as always
Rhykker I don't know if this is old news or good news but I saw a video of PTR 2.6.6. Necromancer and he had almost permanent LotD up with Legacy of Dreams and other stuff that made him speed thru a GR, would that be a top tier Necro?
I forgot the video name but the MessSchmit + Gogak + other cool downs made it look legit and potential top Necro.
Hey! That is the blood & essence necro you thinking of i guess but thats not a LoD build. It will be a really good speedarming build well over 100 but it will not be the top pushing build. All props to Lord fluffy ua-cam.com/video/BSAlXa9MPrE/v-deo.html
Hi, it wasn't that video I saw, hopefully we'll get a decent Necro build better than the necro-thorn LoN/LoD build.

This looks like back to the roots because I remember playing darts wd way before it was popular (when we used to fight in a portal to determine our greater rift level).
stone gauntlet penalty is negated if you have cc imunity so any build with perma cc imunity its a solid option.
Thank you for the new tier list and video.
Now the hard part of deciding who to start with this season.
Would love to see a guide on the Natalya build
Yo I just came up with a cool marauders multishot build! You won’t be able to keep vengeance up forever but I include it anyway, you have all 6 pieces of marauders, yangs recurve for multishot dmg, bombardiers rucksack for extra turrets, dead mans legacy in the cube for more multishot dmg, focus and restraint for more dmg build up, Zoe’s secret(belt) for toughness since you have all the pets from marauders, wraps of clarity( more toughness), visage of gunes(maybe optional, in the cube) for dmg reduction when vengeance is up, obsidian ring of the zodiac to help with all the cool downs(in the cube), squirts necklace for more dmg(caution you take more dmg).
For the gems I used trapped(duh), zei’s stone of vengeance(damage from a distance and chance to stun), and stricken(dmg build up)
Skills: evasive fire(focus)/multishot(arsenal)/sentry(polar station)/vault(tumble)/vengeance(seethe)/companion(dnm)
Passives: custom engineering(more sentries)/ambush(dmg)/ballistics(synergize with multishot arsenal)/awareness(I hate dying)
I was able to do a GR 100 with what I threw together in about 10 minutes...I have a few low augments, a lot of paragon(1532) it was tested off season 😬, my trapped is a high rank(101), but my zeis rank is pretty low(41)...
The build was semi optimized... I was mostly running around during the GR 100, got pinned by 2 elite packs who popped my awareness and made me panic and try to fight from the other room(archane enchanted sucks), the first rift area was an act three dungeon so there were a lot of walls blocking my multishot arch, I’m on console so gameplay may be drastically different on pc
If you try this feel free to tell me any tweaks I should make
I’m guessing vengeance could be swapped for something I’m not sure what though... I have played all the good DH builds, Shadows Impale(my favorite, obviously cause I’m on console), UE Multishot(speed rifting), Marauders Cluster Arrow, UE Primary Grenades, Natalya Grenades, Natalya Marauders Cluster Arrow Sentries, LoN Rapid Fire, I even also tried LoN Fan of Knives(it SUCKED). I made a demon hunter for all of these builds(except Lon FoK 🤮)
The build I described above was me coming up with a build on my own, it’s not the best for self management, but GR100 first try pretty decent.
That Messerschmidt was perfect, well done.
Nice job. Thanks for all the work that you done for Diablo 3 over the years. Now let the season begin, in two days.
I don’t see how the new LoN (LoD) Singularity could work in Squirt’s Necklace or Messerschmidt’s...on top of making a squishy build even squishier, I really don’t feel like the bonus damage from Squirt’s Necklace can outweigh the 15 full seconds of additional Simulacrum uptime you get with Haunted Visions. You can’t really Cube it either, since the build pretty much has all its remaining jewelry slots tied up with CoE, Nailuj’s Evol and Krysbin’s.

I'm trying to get back into the game and I adored the inna shen clone stacker generator build. Seems off the radar, is it unviable now?
I miss the recaps of how things ended up at the end of last season, compared to your start of the season predictions. Also I think saying what GR the S tier is expected to reach helps to put into perspective what the other builds are able to do.
Also is it possible to differentiate between numberphile builds and playability builds in future ranks videos?
Would you still consider using squirts necklace for HC? since you take 50% more damage? I’m thinking on using the UE DH for HC. Before I’ve always used the hellfire to get the cheat death passive.

last season i made a necro and it was a challenge getting the gr80 early on.... so i went vyrs and within one day of playing i was doing gr 90.... dont waste ur time playing anythign but vyrs if u like the build and playstyle. get a halo of karin and its mindless Survivability as well.. after a couple weeks i was farming gr100 in 5 minute solo with 60 trillion crits... easymode.. it is so easy to get the pieces of gear as they are all set items..
Hey. Where is nec corpse explosion build :)? It's solid now
Rhykker, can you clarify to me If this tier list only applies to PC gaming? You put Uliana on D tier but in PS4 everyone is using It on top ranked
Hey there, what's the best farming build for DH on your opinion?
Haven't played for a while...can't wait to get back into d3
also i think i will go with WD since i never played that class most classes i played was monk and barb but i get bored
I think u need to adjust the effect of the triune things more. Build like rapid-fire are completely screwed just bcos they don't have the mobility to gain benefit from the circles, on contrast, ranged build like WoL, MS should have more advantage.
Can you make a detailed UE Multishotguide with the new additional set? Would love to see it!
Cube the Ring of Royal Grandeur. Craft Captain Crimson's Belt and either the Boots or Legs.
Flawless Royal Diamond in Helm, 10% CDR from Paragon, and Dawn in the Cube will give you permanent Vengeance uptime. This lets you build more Crit Chance/Damage or Area Damage in slots where you needed to roll for CDR on other items.
Wear Squirt's Necklace to make up for the loss of Convention of Elements.
Part of what makes Captain Crimson's so good for Multishot builds is the fact they get a free up-to-55% Resource Cost Reduction on Yang's Recurve. No other class gets that much generic RCR for free. Since Captain Crimson's gives you damage reduction based on your RCR, equipping the full set bonus with a well-rolled Yang's Recurve is giving you >70% damage reduction without even having to stack any more RCR than you normally would. Multishot builds were always a bit squishy, so this set helps that tremendously.
@@PiroMunkie Wow, thank you very much. That was exactly what I was looking for!
@@RaimaNd That's actually a really good question that I don't know the answer to because I didn't test it.
However, if it does give you additional RCR (as in, it increases the RCR on your character sheet) instead of discounting your ability costs in some other magical way, I don't see why it wouldn't also affect the damage reduction from the Crimson's set.
Rhykker. We love you, man.
Any chance we can get a build guide for the natalya rapid fire build you talked about?
Yep! Working on it now :)
Wow thanks for the complete info ;-) Because of you, i decided I'm gonna play witch doctor this season. It looks cool and fun. Thanks Rhykker.
Me too ^^ So according to the video, the LON DOD is in Meta S? Do you think that his build of season 17 (patch 2.6.5) will be the same as for this S18: ua-cam.com/video/6zTR8yg4HbI/v-deo.html
@Rhykker can you do us all a favor a tell us if Captain Crimson's 3 bonus include total percentage of cooldown or the sheet one with diminished returns? The patch clearly states total percentage of cdr that's why it is so blurry for all, I checked a lot of source and nobody knows exactly...
Rykker, could you do an explanatory video on how to play a Vyr Chantodo and Bazooka wizard?
Knuckle_Bump Vyrs Chantodo is really easy to play. There are a ton of videos on it! But, despite what he says you can’t use Squirts. You are sticking with a travelers pledge, Compass rose and Obsidian ring.
Bazooka wizard which I have a ton of experience with is by no means an easy build. It’s probably one of the harder specs to play in the game. Watch Lexyutv or do a google search on him.
Always there when I wonder which build to use. Thanks, buddy.
What do we think about the new stone gauntlets now that you can reduce the malus via things like wrath of the berserker,vengeance,etc. and that gem that remove control-impairing effects?
Aren't the Legacy of Nightmare builds outdated now with the current season since LON is no longer the theme?
They just use the Legacy of Dreams gem now
@@Rhykker So is there no point for using Litany and Wailing host anymore?
So with the new circles this season, will that impact speed runs? since you need to stay inside the circles right?
