S Tier Builds that can solo most content with only a small amount of investment to gear, aspects, paragons, and runewords. These builds continue to be relevant towards endgame and will make your experience a lot easier.
A Tier Builds that can reach their peak with the right amount of investments. These builds take time and effort to optimize but can stand on par with most relevant builds.
B Tier Builds that shine only in certain situations and cannot solo most content. These builds are only good temporarily for early levels and is not advised to use for endgame content.
