Best Spells Tier List

Horadric Spells are divided into three abilities, which are their Infusions with the supporting Arcana, and the Catalyst that casts when you align it with your skill. This tier list aims to list down the best in each three categories.

Horadric Spells That Are Generally Good Are Placed the Highest

Certain Horadric Spells are much better than most Spells and can be put in any build. These Spells are placed at the top of the tier list as they can make any build better with them added into it.

Spells that Can be Build Defining Are Placed in A Tier

A-tier Spells are Horadric Spells that have the capability of making new build archetypes. However, if these spells are used on other builds, their effects can quickly become lackluster and are thus placed in the mid-tier.

B Tier Spells Fall Under Specific Builds

Most of the B-tier Spells are spells that can't be used easily unless builds are hyper-optimized to make these spells work. These spells are used to make underperforming builds work, but are unusable on other builds.

S Tier Explanation

Nebulous Extract

Spell Effect
Nebulous ExtractNebulous Extract Your Catalyst now deals Shadow and or Corrupting damage. Enemies hit by it deal 5.5% reduced damage for 7 seconds. While equipped, your Shadow Damage Bonus is equal to that of your highest Damage Type Bonus.

Nebulous Extract is one of the best Infusions as of Season 9. This is due to the flat damage reduction it gives, which is extremely helpful when pushing high-difficulty content.

Glacial Nimbus

Spell Effect
Glacial NimbusGlacial Nimbus Your Catalyst now deals Cold and or Frostbiting damage. Enemies damaged by it are Chilled for 16%. This effect happens once per enemy every 1 second. While equipped, your Cold Damage Bonus is equal to that of your highest damage Type Bonus.

Glacial Nimbus deserves its spot in the S-tier mainly due to its Chill effect. This allows most builds to apply Crowd Control easily and take advantage of affixes that exploit Crowd Control effects.

Disintegrate

Spell Effect
DisintegrateDisintegrate Form an Arcane Conductor that emits a persistent beam between itself and you, dealing a steady blitz of 220,463 damage over 8 seconds.

Disintegrate is one of the most consistent Catalysts in the game as the persistent beam lasts for 8 seconds. With Disintegrate's low cooldown, it will remain active as long as you align it to your most used skill, and you can even summon multiple beams!

Bloody Charm

Spell Effect
Bloody CharmBloody Charm Your Catalyst gains a specialized Execute effect for a non-Boss enemies with 12% or less Life

Bloody Charm is a must-have as its executions are extremely helpful when speedrunning dungeons. This is best used when running The Pit, as it saves you time when executing enemy Champions and Elites.

Bottled Wind

Spell Effect
Bottled WindBottled Wind Invoking your Catalyst grants a Barrier equal to 34% of your Maximum Life for 4 seconds. After it dissipates, its essence is bottle back up.

Bottled Wind is a great defensive Arcana for all builds due to its barrier. Players can also use this Arcana to take advantage of the Conceited Aspect to gain more damage to their builds.

I highly recommend anyone out there with herpes that it is curable. After years of trial and failed attempt Dr. udo did it for me. I wonder if there are other ways to say thank you and to share a quick note on how he cured my Herpes virus a year and some months ago, I was totally surprised when I went for medical report and seeing that I was totally free from the virus, it made me speechless and with so much joy. However, he also treat other illnesses, like HIV AIDS, DIABETES, Emails: udosolutio
