- What PvP Build should you make for D2R? These are how the most popular builds (new and old) rank in our S Tier list. Even with the new Patch 2.3 release, this list is fairly on point. How does your favorite character stack up?

You should update this tier list with the 2.4 patch… I feel like some things have changed drastically since
That was a HARD task at hand - well done & pretty spot on, man
D2R's first pvp tier list :)
Tough task, indeed! Appreciate you, brother. Thanks for postin' all the sick PvP videos that I steal >
@@Coooley so what is the number spot in your opinion? if i only had time to make 1 pvp char, what's the best?

noob tier
wrr
I was literally just talking about how we need more PvP content and you release this video as if you heard me , thanks !
He did. Not even death can save you from Coooley
I used to play Diablo 2 20 years ago and had a wind Druid and bone necro, my 2 favorite builds. We used to do 4v4 matches with teams of Druid Barbarian Necro and Assassin.
Meh I already moved on from PvP. That's outdated brah. Now I only host MvM (Merc vs Merc) games now. That's where it's at
From a black man and my community - M vs iron golem where it at playboi
Can't wait to get an enigma so the game of d2r can finally start lol.
Finally start? Pretty sure the games falling off already lol. Dont get me wrong i still play just less and less and seems like everyone else does to. Not nearly as many games as a month ago. PoD new season really hurt player count
@@RumblesBettr thise all depends on the people who play PoD in the first place. Most who play it are people who originally played Diablo 2. If they didn't I doubt they even know of its actual existence. It's for fans of that game. D2R is also for fans of the original Diablo 2 game, but it was released publicly to the world with 3D upgraded graphics and on 4 multiple platforms which could be transferred for curent day generation to try as well. Children or teens now are probably more interested in playing D2R than PoD if they even know what it is. And some people who played the original probably played years of the normal game (offline and online) then stopped never playing PoD. With this new game out, why bother playing an old version mod game? Sure some people who did play it may return to it, but those who never played it, aren't old generation, or simply play on Xbox, Playstation or Switch won't have the ability to do so and if they want to play a Diablo 2 version of game it would be D2R. Which again would probably attract more simply due to generation gap, graphic update and multiple playing systems which are able to jump. Not to mention you can bring single player data from the original game. Also D2R hasn't exactly been out that long. I'm sure there will be updates and changes just like any game. And I'm fairly sertain more will play. I only started 3 weeks ago.
I got it today. Found Jah in the first week, then 2Sur in the past week. And yes you are correct, the game only starts now :)
@@jopied_ great to hear that! Where did you find it? I like to do runs in The Pit.
@@dmraven Jah/Sur in cows with javazon and a Sur from a ghost in Crystaline passage
Great stuff!
Now let us filter for PvP games in the lobby Blizzard.
Id' love to see more niche PvP tournaments that encourage lesser used skills and abilities.
Sure! I'm picturing a Tier 1 spell tourney.
wrr
That's what makes melee pk so fun. You get a lot of weird items and builds. A lot of people don't like the click-and-hold style of fighting, but it's a really interesting game of poker not knowing how your opponent is set up or what items you need to counter theirs. That's where zealots really shine, although you do get jabzons, enchantress sorcs, and shapeshifters who put up some good results.
WW barb is hard to master, but when you get it.....ol boy, it's like hiting the enemy players with heavy metal bass guitar!
with shared stash allowing for a lot of resistance stack gear, I think vs any well prepared opponent all the pierce builds fall down one tier.
blizzard, auradin, foh, poison nec, all have problems once the majority of their pierce has been negated.
gm rules help blizzard prevent this by say "hey don't do that" but every prepared player is gonna be packing resists to the gm cap with shared stash now.
barb is S and no sorcs are S imo
but arguing over tier lists is part of the fun!
Agreed.
100% agree with you
My personal favs have always been BvCs and 95 ES Blizz/FB sosos.I know it's crappy in d2r due to ww bug but still it doesn't stop people like DHA to rock blood moor with spin to win baba.
Good list dude 👍🏻
Hi first of all. I have to saw u are totally my nr 1 fav of D2 guides and videos. Sure there is Lama, And Debrunski, but i feel there are more like gurus for single player, or meta focussed. And for a old d2 veteran who pursome to be a guru in my guild and be one of the guys who knows most about d2 in my network. I apreciate you of all the youtubers the most, because you are the more real guy with the apreciation of the game, pvp, marketing that i can better rely or comparare to my needs. I mean if u make a video of, and ur not afraid, nonmeta, which can both result in alot of comments aND DICUSSION, and u have to really be more prepared and have d2 basic knowgle, or reference and testing with real pro gamers, dare more to take the chance to go to the next lvl, and talk about the ultimate builds, stats, gear and the real BIS gear and marked, especially for pvp. which by my standards, is one of the endgame goals and another world and community for most. U have added alternative builds or strategies, far from meta. Sharing some small tips and knowlge for even the biggest veteran player, who though he knew everything, and not getting anything new from any meta d2 streamer. And can therefore relate. Tho I have one question who have been buggin med for weeks. In many of ur videos, when u speedfarm/tele to a sertain distination, i notice u verry often pull up the skill tap screen. And Its be bugging me, that I want to know why, whats the reason for this. Is this because u will tele the max distance, like with controller, and and effect for not having high mouse sensivity, to easily max out tele distance. Is it something wierd personal, wihout any reason. Or is it something else Even i never knew about.. Pls tell and explain ur habbit about opening skilltap when you tele. cause thats a trick i never knew about.
Thanks for your kind words, man! That means a lot. I open up the Char/Skill screens to get more leverage and distance when I teleport. I do this in PvP, as well, to cover more ground quickly. It's a good way to catch people in the blood moor, but also can make your MF runs a little faster!
🔥Another one
This is so spot on. I used to play pvp in D2 all the time back in the day and yeah very accurate.
Hii bro! Been an avid fan of yours and just wanna know your thoughts for the patch 2.4 and if you're going to make an updated tier list for PvP patch 2.4. More power to you man!
Did I see zaichek in that game? I played with him a lot back in 08-09.
This is the kind of video I was hoping you would make.
"Etch-a-lon," the long awaited follow up to the Etch-a-sketch.
no summons?
Loved my poison necro in lod and blizz es sorc
Coooley I was playing your immortal sorc setup in a pub duel game, it wrecks just now with the broken firewall! You should defo go back to it and give it a try in d2r.
Just put it together this week, actually!
Except this latest game update kinda fixed the OP firewalls. It kinda still does the same damage per wall, but the walls don't stack anymore, so for example boss killing in PvM with it has slowed down very noticeably.
I’m about to enter a tourney this on the 11th, could any of you do some gear check for me?
I used to main a shockadin charger in LoD, that was how it was played, you would try to charge in/out and some would use Zeal, I never wasted time on Zeal because it's easily countered.
Amazing PvP video! It gives us goals to aim for in D2R!
Pretty well done. Barb for me is definitely S tier as it's my main PvP char and I clap all builds. The only one I may struggle with are sins.
Agreed. Sins are a tele-in and pray that I hit em' when you're a barb.
I know you're working really hard but we need more content from you, you and the iceman are so incredibly funny, just great stuff from the both of you 👍😁
@@simodelafrog3690 he's funny as fuck 🤣
Am surprised the auroradin got that high even. Just because nobody does it. But I did accidentally kill a higher level with mine. That's how I found out how pvp works. He just showed up and past tensed himself next to me.
No body plays as hybid poisonzon (plague javelin) in D2R? I remember this one of the best builds for amazon vs melee characters.
everyone only copy paste the same informations they get.
Their info is probably not from actually playing the game. So ofc they ALL do not mention psn jav. or Hydra sorc, and many other
I NEED to know which helm Guts is using in the beginning of the game. Are we talking Giant Skull, Delirium Bone Visage or some rare helm with visio mod? What's viable for a WW barb in PvP aside from a circlet or Arreats?
Nice list Papa Cools!
I agree (mostly) though I'd move everything down a peg to differentiate between sin being more disgusting than the rest.
S tier -- Sin
A tier -- Necro, Smiter, Druid, WW Barb
B tier -- Hammerdin, Zon (only here because it beats sin, I'd say low B), Blizzer, Poison Necro, FBaller
C tier -- Charger, Orber, Firewaller, Bolt/Nova
D tier -- pure melee builds (frenzy, zeal, werewolf/bear)
GG awesome video
Seriously considered this lol!
WW Barb is def in the top tier. I think I only knocked it down a peg for expectation's sake, cuz you need to be really good with it. But I don't think that shoulda been taken into account in retrospect.
GG Man!
I feel like the gap between S tier and A tier needs to be pretty wide, as lack of WSG really changes things.
really good! how about the murderdin? still viable?
Awesome video! Which build would you recommend for new players that are inexperienced and can't afford top tier gear? I have only played PvP a few weeks in D2 lod over the years (bs nec and wind druid). I would like to build a bowazon or maybe a trapsin next in D2:R but maybe they will be too hard/expensive?
Casters are the least reliant on gear, especially sorcs. Any build that relies on weapon damage is going to shoot through the roof in terms of cost. I haven't played Diablo 2 in years, but last time I did, there was a noticeable difference between having something like zbug Fortitude vs. a regular Fortitude. Or between having .08 boots and having crafted boots. Obviously, a lot has changed in D2R (no more .08 or glitched gear). That just means what's considered high-end has changed. You can still get ethereal, self-repair weapons and items. A decent one could set you back hundreds of HRs.
Hello Coooley, I have a question: In a Bowazon, versus tank-character for exaample (Smiter 50% Dr + 4khp or baba 6k hp). What is better WarTravelers or Gorerider?
Any reason you didn't choose to include Fissure Druids? They're incredibly rare, but insane fissure builds are easily one of the most broken builds in D2 history :)
Where is sin kicker and Druid stanlock ?
Gotta love Coooley
I agree with this list cept for the auradin flat out D rank especially if your proficient with chains this is a legit list man very nice
I have yet to see a PvP game on the server browser list. I tried to create some games called PvP but no one joined... Where do you find people to play against?
Also, would be cool if you uploaded some PvP gameplay content :)
Ah man, bringing back memories of hardcore ladder from 2003. Those assassins joining your game and immediately going hostile.
Some had assassins at level 10, 20, 30 etc, so they could manage to get in and kill everyone.
Also can confirm zeal paladin as tier D. That was my guy.
Nice list. I wonder if 200fcr vita FB sorc or ES is the way to go for sorc.
if you been playing for 10+ years and got skills the vt pally = god
Pure holy fire/widow maker auradin is devastating. I would say it’s one of the best pvper, 1 hit charge with 3k guided arrow or huge holy fire dmg if they don’t absorb
Where is the rabies or fire claw druids? The bear sorc, the immortal sorc etc you are missing some fun builds like the enchant sorc using demon machine.
summoners not allowed in pvp? or not effective? I gotta think telestomping with 30 minions is pretty effective. Works great in pvm. I've never really got into the pvp scene though, just wondering why it wasnt on this list.
Summoners are hot fucking garbage in pvp. Players have a harder time killing Baal than they do summoners. By far the best PvM build, though. Easily solo hell difficulty naked if you have to.
I have a good idea for a video.
Show end game gear on each character.
And each LLD Tier. So everyone pc/console can start holding/trading the items.
Hey Cooley, I've built FB ES soso with ur instructions, supposed to be best op PVP char. It for real does like 0 dmg to people, can u check what's wrong with it?
Hey. I'm not sure if you made a tier list for LLD. But it would be interesting to see your list. When I used to play on West Ladder, I built a lvl 30 fissure druid with garbage ass gear that owned a lot of barbs, necros, sorcs, chargers, hdins, and etc. even though they had a lot of godly gear. If fissure is on a low tier, I wouldn't be surprised. I guess that just means that brains beats brawns for this build lol since my play style works =P.
Lots of desynch fixes and the firewall fix were just released.
Might change some of those Pala/Sorc tiers.
Cool. Good to know what the meta is atm. What are the biggest changes that have affected pvp? Isn't everything supposed to be the same?
Namelocks and chains are a bit different. Kicks ignore defense now (even after the patch), no desync, no WSG, and no manual WSM. PvP feels different, but familiar... If that makes sense.
@@Coooley The loss of desync is a bummer. Amazons really need it to take full advantage of their class. Nothing like seeing a legit farcast javazon or a bowazon that's invisible while running lol
Do a melee only tier list please ! One of my fav old school NICHE builds were concentrate barbs lol
Frozen orb is A tier
Really nice work with this tier list.
Is there any chance youll be making one for the upcoming d2r balance changes patch whenever its possible?
I just dont even know what I am looking at when I try to watch videos about the pvp, I have never played D2 before but I love pvp and character building so I was interested in getting into D2:R but whenever I watch it just seems to be a guy casting a spell over and over and over and teleporting around the map on 0 sec cooldown...is there any room for melee?
Does this new update to IAS change your list? So bummed about sin trap and kick speed
Poison dagger Necro not S rank? Downvoted and reported for disinformation.
Great vid mate love the content
I feel like this was aimed at me. Thanks!
Is this tier list accurate for both high level, mid level, and lld?!
can you do an LLD tier list?
The barbarian disrespect 😮😮
Wat about berserk barb with locking on target zerk can be really deadly
Wish you make a new tier list with all the change from 2.4
just build my ww barb yesterday -
Enigma AP Grief Zerker Beast Zerker Highlords Gores 2x hoto on switch for BO/teleport IAS 1x raven 1x dual leech AR/life/all res GG rare ring dracs dungos arereats/gface
stormshield for melee duels Inventory full of 100 poison / 3frw charms / 177 poison /290 poison charms/ 3max/ar/life charms
he's an absolute U N I T. abandoned my 105 fcr 400 mf cold sorc the MOMENT i was able to for a hammerdin. My hdin does: 14k hammers, FCR capped, and resist capped CURSED in hell
also. Hammerdin farms players: 8 chaos like its den of evil on norm. WW barb S C H L A P S in pvp
Update?
Ive never had a hard time vs bone necs on my hdin. Only Druids and good trappers.
Man this brings good memory. Is thunderstorm sorc still viable?
It never was viable in d2 history bro
I stomped a paladin using smite with my concentrate barb but he came back with a wind druid , how would I defend agaisnt that?
where are the tournaments?
Wouldn't trapper / spider sin be #1 right now (gm no sorb) due to the WSG being removed?
Surprised to see bowzon in A tier. Haven't played one in D2R yet but I thought since they removed the weapon switch glitch they would be pretty low
The only place where my opinion really differs here is at firewall. I would put firewall at D tier.
In my opinion blizzard and fireball sorc are max c tier. It’s slow and really easy to evade. I would put poison necro s or a tier as it destroys everyone with the fire golem, huge minus resist on gear and lower resist. It can’t be sorbed.
May i ask if poison necro hybrid bone spirit is god tier?
Sooo good video, now i known witch char i need to build to the best pvp char..
I use to pvp with fireballs with max block :D
Before switching to amazon for the challenge.
Pvp is the future of d2r... Peace out gg
What a Cooley video!
agree with 90% of the list. i wud swap trapsin and ghost tho. Ghost has more ways to do dmg and is more versatile imo. Nice video tho :)
Trap represents Spider, too. Almost put Ghost higher, but we haven't really seen one materialize in D2R yet. Those claws!
@@Coooley Does Hybrid sit with Spider/Trapper or with Ghost on this list? :x
@@i8yourfwd trapper/spider
spider sin (trap ww) is best sin
Spider sin here gears 95% completed
This patch fixed a lot of ias bugs, wolf attacks so slow now 😱
Did they just fixed ias today?
@@_stay_frosty Yeah.. no more uncapped IAS
when i switch to bear form (beast zerker on my barb) i can not seem to even attack, its attacking too fast the animation doesnt even swing
what about shockwave druid build? have tryed it? can you share?
as a barbarian main i have an entire cold resist/absorb setup for act V. the slow attack animation absolutely triggers me.
is zeal pally that much worse than smite pally? I imagine he hits much faster and harder and can kill some casters quicker. Also, he could use his albeit lower smite to do the same thing a smiter does, since most of the damage comes from grief, anyway. Or am I wrong here?
Zealots don't always hit like Smiters do, but against the right casters, they can get the job done... Until the max block setups come out or your opponent changes their strategy to adapt to you
@@Coooley i was thinking that maybe the faster speed of zeal and increased damage would offset that. Thanks for the reply
Zealots are still a lot of fun to build because melee pk is one of the coolest types of dueling if you like coming up with weird builds, using janky items, and want to take a deep dive into D2's mechanics. You have to remember breakpoints in normal pk. In melee, you'll find yourself analyzing deadly strike odds at 9 frames vs. 10 frames, whether that's worth sacrificing 1k AR vs. level 95 enemies when you're level 96, and....it just spirals out of control.
You find yourself picking up every rare item you can find, re-rolling and crafting junk people throw away in pub games, paying 40 High Runes for some niche item that probably doesn't exist on your server, and so on.
Those bastards fixed the attack speed bug. There was no need. I hate that.
Where do you guys look for tournaments with rules?
B for Charger? Just shows you never played one or made one that could take on all characters. Charger is the only dueler I've made in the past 20 years of D2 and max block is not a problem.
Check out my ranger din or LLD charger videos! It's my favorite build by far
Nice job Coooley!
If using KB on the build, fx on groves. I Def would consider A bowzon top tier, tho without KB it prolly A or Even as low as B. Imo
where is the immortal sorceress on this ladder?
Wasn't Bui6's champion build a Ghostzin? How is it not the top S tier build.
Bui played hybrid and trapper. I think he owned a ghost because he owned multiple assassins, but he never did any serious competing with it. His hybrid was definitely a 100k+ build.
Make this vid for console Since there is No tele stomp or aim percision there for the list is very diffrent
I know Bone necro gonna be S+ tier but Im still watching it to the end
@@hashimrahman51 well it depends on a few factors but I would say its a solid 50/50 with maybe a small advantage for necro.
@@hashimrahman51 I smoke necros on my spider and I play like a 99% trapper due to the ww bugs in d2r. Necros don't stand a chance if you play right.
Sad thing berserk barbs aren't a thing. They sure were in hardcore back in 1.09 :D
are the pvp in diablo 2 resurrected now?
Where is ES Sorc? :)
Hc player here. Can use any info to slay pkers who hop in and hostile. Thanks for all the info :)
My Charger and TG druid were the best!
Sad to see the orb so low and the blizz so high.
Max charge smiter is my fav pvp
lol you have no faith in telezeal.
imo they can go up to A tier threat with the proper build/pilot.
but most you meet do give the impression of D tier.
My man! Whens the next tourney?
Next week! Check the description for the link
you ignored the jab zon 😢
I hope they add mermans sprockets to help counter hdins
