Diablo 4 Best Endgame Class [Stats, Playstyle & Build]

The following is my take on the Best Endgame Class along with its playstyle, reasoning, and pros & cons in Diablo 4.

Diablo 4 has a range of five classes, which differ greatly depending on whether you choose them based on early-game or endgame. The Druid class features an excellent endgame playstyle. So, players might want to know about the Best Endgame Class in that category. 

Important: Players should note that the Druid build will progress slowly while leveling up. in Diablo 4
Key Takeaways
  • Endgame class selection may leave players conflicted between the Barbarian, Rogue, or Druid; however, the Druidtops them both. 
  • The Druid class typically focuses on a Shapeshifter aspect in its playstyle, allowing players to become either wolves or bears. 
  • The Diablo 4 Druid Endgame Class can focus on Storm and Earth abilities and make the player a Werebear or Werewolf. 
  • The main caveat of playing as the Druid is that it is gear-dependent and has a slow progression initially.

Why Is Druid The Best Endgame Class In Diablo 4? 

The Best End-Game Class For High AoE Damage & Crowd Control.

There have been many conflicts regarding the Best Endgame Class, and an obvious clash between Barbarians and Druids can be seen. At the same time, the Druid offers an excellent way to solo content single-handedly.

  • Why I Chose This: I chose the particular endgame class due to its versatility and attack speed, along with the fact it offers great crowd control and great AoE damage. 

The Druid has a bit of a slow progression from the early game while earning XP. Still, it picks up the pace in the endgame extremely well and offers an excellent balance between damage output and survivability on the battlefield. The Sorceress and Necromancer may not be the best choice for the endgame. 

The following are the pros and cons of the class as per my experience: 

  • High versatility and attack speed.
  • Excellent critical striking.
  • Solid crowd control.
  • High AoE damage.
  • Tanky.
  • Slow progression.
  • Gear-dependent.

Let’s detail how one of the Best Class operates and how players can use it during gameplay. 

Playstyle

The Druid class typically focuses on a shapeshifter playstyle, through which players can become bears or wolves and use an offering system to spirit animals, whereby these animals can provide passive bonuses depending on the level of the offering. 

Below is a summary of what the Druid class can do:

Druid Class FeaturesEffects
WerewolfIn the form of a werewolf, players can become extremely agile and are able to benefit from the attack speed increase and can critically strike their opponents.
StormCast down Lightning onto your opponents using the Storm or render them useless with Wind.
EarthUsing Earth allows players to crowd control opponents and make them weaker in combat.
WerebearPowerhouse while in combat, dealing excellent damage and being difficult to murder.

Diablo 4 Druid Storm Werewolf Endgame Build 

The main choice for the Druid Diablo 4 Endgame Class Builds would normally be Druid Pulverize. However, players can also benefit greatly by using this Storm Werewolf build that focuses on dishing out even more damage and staying alive for longer in the event that the battle becomes too tough. 

  • While at level 100, players can clear Nightmare Dungeons at Tier 78 with a Storm Werewolf build. 
  • It typically focuses on dishing out great damage
  • The main reason why the Storm Werewolf build is placed a bit higher than the Pulverize build is mostly due to the way it uses tornadoes as the main source of damage.
