Diablo 4: Best Solo Class [All Ranked]

The following is my take on the best solo classes in Diablo 4 that have large health pool, high damage & survivability.

Solo Classes include the best classes that the players can utilize in solo play without the need to play in a party or a team in Diablo 4. When it comes to the best solo class, the answer can be quite subjective. However, I think there are some classes that excel greatly if you are playing solo. 

Key Takeaways
  • The best solo classes in Diablo 4 include Barbarian, Rogue, and Necromancer
  • Barbarian is considered Diablo 4 best solo class because of the high health pool it offers. 
  • Barbarians also have a lot of powerful AOE attacks, and they are pretty tanky in nature. 
  • Necromancer is also great for solo players as they can perform melee and ranged attacks. 
  • Rogue is another great class that can perform both ranged and melee attacks with great power and high mobility.

While all of the five classes can be utilized in solo play, some are better than others in many aspects. When it comes to solo classes, you will want to choose a class that focuses more on melee abilities than ranged skills. This is because ranged gameplay won’t do you much good when you have to face enemies head-on.

Therefore, I have mentioned the Diablo 4 best solo classes below:

  • Why I Chose This: I chose the following class due to its high health pool and the massive damage it can deal to enemies.

Barbarian is definitely the best solo class in Diablo 4, thanks to its powerful melee attacks. Not only will you be able to enjoy a great health pool as a barbarian, but you will also be able to land some amazing AOE attacks.

  • Deals deal insane amounts of damage.
  • The Berserking Boost will allow a 25% increase in damage. 
  • Has great mobility.
  • Doesn’t do much without the Fury ability.
  • Useless in the long or mid-range.

  • Why I Chose This: Necromancer belongs on my list due to its ability to summon the undead and control the crowd.

The reason why I prefer playing as a necromancer when going solo is due to its ability to summon the Army Of The Undead. Furthermore, you will be able to make use of both ranged and melee attacks since it is capable of doing both.

Also, it has the Book Of The Dead mechanic, which will allow you to accurately use different strategies using the Army Of Undead helpers to take down enemies. 

  • Exels at crowd control.
  • Dosent requires assistance. 
  • Can summon and customize an Army Of The Dead
  • Not much useful without the summoning.
  • Features low damage.

  • Why I Chose This: I chose the following Rogue class for solo play as it is the fastest class and it deals massive amounts of damage.

Another great class, according to experience, capable of dealing great damage at a good range is the rogue class. It is good at dealing with melee damage as well as ranged damage to enemies.

Furthermore, it has great mobility among all classes with powerful attacks and easy-to-use skills. You will also get amazing crowd control with the rogue class. The Rogue class is all about the balance between offensive and defensive skills.

  • Deals high amounts of damage.
  • It is the fastest class. 
  • Can stun and freeze the enemies.
  • Can’t take many hits.
  • Makes you invest more in the dodge ability.

Important: Avoid classes like Sorcerer and Druid, as they are pretty complex and will put you at a disadvantage while playing solo.
