Whirlwind Build

PvP Build

The Barbarian has it all going on inDiablo immortal. Usually characters that try to cover damage, tankiness, and mobility fall into the jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none category, but the Barbarian is a notable exception. It’s among the best classes in each of these elements.

But that’s not granted to the player for free. Gearing up a Barbarian inDiablo Immortalis tougher than equipping most other classes, since no choice is truly terrible. Every choice is good, but only a select few legendary weapons stand out as the best of the best.

Diablo Immortal Barbarian Walking Past A Sign

8The Remembered - PvP - Off-Hand

As if the Barbarian wasn’t already good enough in the battlegrounds, turning it into a summoner and disabler can feel like joiningthe many PvP cheaters. But it’s completely legitimate, so long as players have The Remembered equipped.

This stun hits all nearby enemies, not just those who are targeted by the skill. Useful on offense or defense, this will set up a straggling target for an easy kill or save the player from certain death at key moments.

7Dishonored Blade - PvE - Off-Hand

The power of Demoralize in a group rift is unreal; it forces mobs to attack the Barbarian and they’ll do so at a greatly diminished capacity.Use auto-navigateto get to the entrance, then invite some folks to the group and become their best friend.

But this is also useful in solo instances. When coupled with Undying Rage, this window of taking reduced damage and getting death back will keep the character topped off for the entire dungeon.

Chained Spear is incredible in PvP but it’s tough to target, especially opponents that know their stuff. The Barbarian isn’tthe easiest class to useand it shows when narrowly missing the Chained Spear attack over and over again during a match.

Diablo Immortal Whirlwind Sending Enemies Flying

Want to turn some of those misses into hits? Obin’s Many Fingers throws out two additional spears, making it that much more likely to snag one of those wiggly opponents who think they can outmaneuver the grab. Even if this results in just a few extra grabs in each skirmish, it’s well worth it.

5Razorgrip - PvE - Off-Hand

Adding a channeled skill to the mobile Barbarians loadout will feel almost sacrilegious, but for taking down rifts, it’s the perfect opener. Consider how many times enemies will swarm the Barbarian at the start of combat and get off a few free hits, wearing the class down before seeing the end of the dungeon.

By charging up this attack to initiate the combat, the Barbarian suddenly is dealing with mobs that have a fraction of the health, preventing them from getting off as many attacks as before. Gamers are hoping this item isn’t nerfed while the development team isfixing the game’s numerous issues.

4The Maddening - PvP - Main Hand

After a measly five auto-attacks, Frenzy will be at maximum stacks. That’s easy to do and players will have plenty of practice as the skill helps themlevel up quickly. But the attack speed is useful for more than just dungeons and solo play.

Against enemy players, Frenzy damage wears them down after just a few seconds. The Maddening adds 15% movement speed while at maximum stacks, enhancing what is already a substantial movement advantage for the Barbarian.

3Eager Maelstrom - PvE - Main Hand

In rifts, movement speed isn’t the Barbarian’s best facet. Mobs are already going to be grouped around it, so there isn’t really any catching up or chasing down to do. Sacrifice some speed for more damage to see this character rise upthe class tier chart.

The extra damage radius on Whirlwind from Eager Maelstrom will hit more of the mo at once, including those who have short-range attacks. Against the largest groups, when enemies can’t get close due to the spacing, they’ll be taking damage without being able to dish any out in return.

2North Wind - PvP - Main Hand

Amax-levelBarbarian is a terrifying sight for opponents. If they aren’t close to their allies, they can get picked off and tossed into danger. Most gamers are aware of this and stay just close enough to their allies to retreat to safety.

A Barbarian that gets tired of seeing these squishy foes escape should grab the North Wind. This isn’t just any slow, it’s a stacking Chill effect that can grind targets to a near halt, preventing them from escaping whatever tricks the Barbarian has planned.

1Sellena’s Iron - PvE - Main Hand

If enemy groups are dishing out too much damage (an inevitability at higher challenges), don’tchange the difficultyfor fewer rewards. Instead, Find Sellena’s Iron and use its power to devastate clusters of mobs. Toss a Hammer of the Ancients, then Leap into the fray.

Between these two moves, minions should be dead outright and the elites won’t be far behind. Area damage over time is another arrow in an already stacked arsenal that expert players are all too happy to exploit.
