Aside from the class-specific Chaos Perks, we also listed down a tier list for the best non-Class Specific Chaos Perks that any class can use to help define their build. This tier list is made for general use and can work with majority of the builds depending on their functionality.
Chaotic Cooldowns
For the S Tier Chaos Perks, Chaotic Cooldowns is a great Chaos Perk for any skill with a cooldown as it allows you randomly set its cooldown to either 2 seconds or its base value. This is extremely useful for any class that has a long cooldown skill to enable more consistent casting of your most powerful skills.
Power Siphon
Power Siphon is great for infinite resource builds since it provides 50-100% Core Skill damage at the cost of stacking reduced maximum resource with every use. Core Skill builds will greatly benefit from this due to the huge damage boost but requires you to solve your resource problems beforehand so reduced maximum resource could be avoided.
Accelerating Chaos
Lastly, Accelerating Chaos works for any build as it not only provides a chance trigger Chaos Burst, but also slightly reduces the cooldown of a random skill on cooldown without any drawbacks.
Tier List Criteria
Importance in Functionality
We ranked our Chaos Perks based on how important they function in a specific class build. This means that a good build is only enabled if they have that specific Chaos Perk equipped on them. Otherwise, the build will not function correctly and will hinder your effectiveness in pushing through endgame content.
Best Builds Tier List for Season 10
Usage in Meta Builds
Our critieria also includes how often a Chaos Perk is used in a variety of builds. This allows the Chaos Perk to be a staple perk across the meta for either increasing damage, boosting survivability, or enabling utility effects that can work for majority of the builds.
