Builds

Your weapon decides which skills you can slot, so a build starts at the branch and not the class. There is one here for each of the eleven branches — the skills that share a mechanic, the talents that enhance those exact skills, and the affixes that scale what comes out. Each one also says when to take something else.

These are branch starters, not a tier list. Every skill, talent, affix and weapon named on a build page is resolved from the imported catalog, so nothing here can claim a number the game does not have — and a pick removed in a patch disappears from the page instead of going stale. The judgement in the prose is ours.
