Necromancer: Shadow Blight
If there's one class stealing the spotlight in PTR testing, it's the Necromancer. Shadow Blight has exploded in Diablo 4 Items power due to major buffs.
The key lies in Wither, which now gives Shadow damage a 20% chance to deal 300%[x] increased damage. When paired with Shadowblight's passive scaling of up to 450%[x] increased Shadow and Corruption damage, the numbers start to skyrocket.
By buying Diablo IV Items, the right gear, and passives like Ebonpiercer and Reaper's Pursuit, Necros are hitting absurd damage numbers in The Pit-sometimes measured in billions or even trillions.
Blood Wave and Bonestorm are still strong, but Shadow Blight is the Necro's best and most consistent Season 10 build for both farming and bossing.
Rogue: Twisting Blades
Rogues, unfortunately, remain in a tough spot. While Blizzard has introduced some PTR tweaks-like Reload mechanics and Chaos Perk synergies-the class still lacks the raw, competitive firepower of Barbarians, Sorcerers, and Necromancers.
That said, Twisting Blades Rogue continues to be the most viable option. This build thrives on fast, fluid combat, weaving through enemies as the returning blades detonate massive AoE bursts.
The downside? Rogues don't have the same variety of top-tier builds. Twisting Blades is strong and fun, but compared to Hydra Sorc or Shadow Necro, it's simply not as dominant. Unless Blizzard delivers last-minute buffs, Twisting Blades will remain the Rogue's go-to but underwhelming meta build in Season 10.
Sorcerer: Hydra
Sorcerers might just be the kings of Season 10. While Lightning builds received plenty of attention in PTR notes, actual testing shows that Hydra Sorcerer is still the strongest option-and possibly the most overpowered build in the game right now.
Hydra has been powerful for several seasons, but Chaos Armor has pushed it over the top. By equipping multiple Hydra-boosting Amulets at once, Sorcs can triple their Hydra scaling, flooding the battlefield with Diablo IV Items for sale fiery serpent heads spitting endless firebolts.
