Huge props to Senpai because he is super busy now a days since he has a job on top of doing this as well as the rest of the dev team. On top of Huge props to DH for all of this time and effort he puts into these tier lists season after season after season. I am surprised that the nerfs to Lycanthropy haven't effected any of the Shape Shifting Druids because I think the nerf to the Life percent from 10% to 2% is huge but that's just me. I can see PSN creeper being very good at leveling up early game (through Normal at least). Man Senpai is bounded and determined that us players use ferocity because he has buffed that item so many times the last couple of seasons.
Thank you DH for the VERY detailed Tier List. For this season im starting with four mates and two of them play the game for the first time. We are running mostly Summon Builds like Druid, Necro and Ama and running another Fire Druid on top. Damn hyped for tomorrow and thanks also to Senpai and his team for maintaining this mod!
Thank you very much sir for this huuuge job. Your tierlists really help to make a choice at every season, this game has soooo much different builds. Also big thanks to the devteam for this awesome mod! PS gonna start windy druid and maybe phoenix or ww sin or fire zon later
Great job, as usual sir! Although I don't agree that blade sentinel is a new build - blade sentinel has been low-key op since season 5 or 6 after they did a bunch of fixes to the flight path of the blades. A lot kf streamers played it before as well, including some very nice guides available. It was just always a bit buggy, tooltip was not correct, but it crushed maps aside from single target.Then again it was the same for double-throw in the early days (season 1,2 and 3) of pd2 and that still deleted everything.
I also thought of this. With the new Unique Ghost Spear that grants Mana Shield when equipped that actually might be useful with the physical Spearzon because mana shield might give her the lack of survivability that she has by not using a shield. Also one final thought; Magic Arrow is very good and also very very strong with the right equipment.
Is there a place with all those new builds details, like all the necessary gear and best synergies/secondary skills? I am having a hard time on what to get for poison javzon and I didn't find anything close to that until I got here.
Would you recommend a spearazon with a +3 spear eth botd? I ran it in D2R after dropping an ethereal +3 matriarchal spear. It was so powerful with impale and fend. I just didn’t know if it would be viable in PD2. I’m torn between that, ice bowazon, or plaguezon. I ran a plague zon ages ago.
Fantastic video as usual, my only question would be what are like top 5 Key Farmers? Since you've got uber lists, group play lists, starters, etc. I feel key farming is a niche worth bringing into the conversation. In Vanilla it's always just sorc>everything else, but I was curious for your input as far as PD2 goes.
On the patch notes it says: Ravens Level 16-22 scaling reduced from 17-18 to 14-15 Level 22-28 scaling reduced from 22-23 to 21-22 Level 28+ scaling increased from 27-28 to 28-29 Isnt this a buf after 28+level ravens, endgame u have like 50 lvl summons ?
mmm about the same really. Truth is though summon mostly is rated weaker in mapping due to it being slower in T3s compared to most other builds even with a full setup. In T1s though it smashes well early on.
Thanks so mu;ch for making this and explaining your choices. Ive been chatting on the discord about dungeon bosses and for hc most ppl have said you will die and no character can really beat it solo, is this true? Apparently blood bringers one shot you, etc. Is there any build that beats dungeon bosses?

I agree. You are the GOAT.

Its strange too because it just keeps making zeal pally better which i don't think is the intent lol
Can confirm poison creeper is great for normal, but it drops off sharply
cant start a PD2 season without DH's tier list!! thanks man for the effort
He's the GOAT
You're the GOAT. The only person I can sit through a 4 hour spreadsheet with. If this was work I'd off myself. Appreciate the effort and data.
Amazing work man ! You got me into PD2 thanks to this build table !
Thank you DH for the VERY detailed Tier List.

Did you skip over leap Barb? Just wanting the quick rundown on the standard version
Can’t wait for the S9 Tierlist!!!! S9 HYPE!!!!!! Thanks for your dedication to the mod and the community! You rock DH!

Watching your tier list before the season start is nearly is a must, awesome as always dude!
Thank you very much sir for this huuuge job. Your tierlists really help to make a choice at every season, this game has soooo much different builds. Also big thanks to the devteam for this awesome mod!
PS gonna start windy druid and maybe phoenix or ww sin or fire zon later

well the extra AoE for me makes it worth it!
thx, great tier list, will give the wind druid a try
We all give a bow to u sir for all your work. Thank you.
Its getting better and better! S8 hype
Thank you DarkHumility I love your content! Much props to you and best of luck on your drops!
I also thought of this.

Dark doing the lords work!
great work, brother
This is some Really High level tier list here... Thank's a lot !
I think you can put your Google doc in presentation mode somehow
Thanks for all the work preparing this.
As always an amazing work. Thanks DH!
I watched this live. I'm just here to drop a comment and like. Thank you for your hard work.
Love your long form content
All your videos on PD2 were extremely informative, and made me subscribe for future content. Will there be future content on season 9?
of course!
Thanks for all the info, very well made.
dude you're a national treasure
I refer back to this at least 10 times a season lol.
Is there a place with all those new builds details, like all the necessary gear and best synergies/secondary skills? I am having a hard time on what to get for poison javzon and I didn't find anything close to that until I got here.
people have made new guides. Also this tier list is now outdated
Would you recommend a spearazon with a +3 spear eth botd? I ran it in D2R after dropping an ethereal +3 matriarchal spear. It was so powerful with impale and fend. I just didn’t know if it would be viable in PD2. I’m torn between that, ice bowazon, or plaguezon. I ran a plague zon ages ago.
botd would be fine, but 6os zerae's resolve is better :)
Doing the Lord's work!
One does not simply play PD2 without watching the tier list from DH

still sorc > everything else :D . Mobility is really key for key farming, no pun intended
@@darkhumility4915made a key farming sorc in that crappy game d2r , can confirm, your sorc needs some tackiness if u play hc tho
you are amayzing. this stuff is huge!
Thanks as always
On the patch notes it says: Ravens
Level 16-22 scaling reduced from 17-18 to 14-15
Level 22-28 scaling reduced from 22-23 to 21-22
Level 28+ scaling increased from 27-28 to 28-29
Isnt this a buf after 28+level ravens, endgame u have like 50 lvl summons ?

Can someone help me with this?.Unable to enter game. Bad inventory data. PLS PLS PLS
hello, is it better to play HC or SC in terms of trade? I think more ppl would play SC therefore more items will be available on SC trade. Am I wrong?
yeah but gg items are also worth a billion hrs on SC. So you have inflation. HC items tend to retain value better so there is a pro and con.
Bear druid got skipped :O
Still loved the video
Hey DH do you have a link to a barb berserk build? Can berserk use Deep Wounds?
it can but other barb abilities make better use of this mechanic (i.e. hit more monsters faster)
What are your thoughts in uldyssians awakening dual enchant bear sorc?
i guess it could be ok lol
Thank you!
Wind Druid Gang unite!
How would you build f orb in pd2? Actually excited to try it out in maps
get max fcr with fathom and medusa's if you can!
the most wiggly homie on the cam

I wonder how bad it is to start a multi zon lol or is strafe a lot easier?
Strafe is a bit easier to start i think but both are solid!
top content
where do i find builds to follow for these builds that you list here?
lots of guides on my channel!
I played season 1, 2 and 3, comming back for 8. Could any1 plz explain what is fortify?

Any discord for pd2?

I do like the budget info. lol
"Just make a light sorc."
Sure, let me make an Infinity in a +3skill/+3mastery base real quick.
Thank you for this shitlist
:D
Ты крутой чел , столько работы проделано! Молодец!!!
Any thoughts on leap attack, especially hc wise? I think you just skipped it in barb section;) great job as always!🤌
it is a dangerous skill in hc somewhat, but with tanky gear you can always manage!
