This list ranks the builds based on how fast they can clear open-world or endgame content such as Nightmare Dungeons, The Pit, Infernal Hordes, or Kurast Undercity on low-to-mid World Tier difficulty for the purpose of farming gear and experience. The higher the tier in the list above, the better the speed farming performance.

Please also note that the rankings are based on a max Level (60) character with multiple Paragon boards unlocked, so lower-level characters will be weaker regardless of the build, but the relative rankings should not differ much at lower levels.

This build tier list is up to date as of December 11th, 2024, and accounts for all the balance patches since Diablo 4 was launched (including seasons).
