No. 1 Diablo IV Best Barbarian Build

This is going to be the best Barbarian for the Diablo, double swing build. This build in particular has a really good sustained DPS as well as not being reliant on multiple stacking modifiers for it in order to get its damage out. It is a good source of sustaining berserking and the build as well refunds its own rage resource very reliably. On the flip side, it doesn't have a particularly strong burst, it does not have the largest of aoes, so clear is a little more on the weaker side in terms of large packs. But you are able to use your abilities frequently and so you have really good uptime on just being able to constantly use your skills on mobs or bosses or elites.

No. 2 D4 Best Barbarian Build

The second best D4 Barb build. With this build, you'll be relatively versatile. You have good AOE clear with rupture if you choose to use it and with rent. You can either pick up a leap for more mobility, or you will have a rally crying to give you move speed but mobility is always very powerful. So if you value mobility, pick up some mobility. Or get power leap in that case but if you don't value move speed as much and you want to maybe a little bit more sustained by killing. We would get rupture and then get fight disrupture. Because as soon as you hit them with rupture, you'll get 15 of your max HP in life and that's really good sustain.

Overall, it's very solid and you don't really need to rely on legendary gear to be able to do this. Should you get legendary gear though? We would highly recommend you slot it and maybe even tailor your build a little bit around it depending on how much gear you get.

No. 3 Best Barbarian Diablo 4

Frenzy is our buffer for our core skill which is upheaval. It goes hand in hand with the amazing synergy of both skills. We got all three shouts even though they got nerfed. We don't get any luck with aspects for defensives, no barrier, and no fortify. So we had to go with the challenging shout for damage reduction. Only got one point in it but already itself, the damage direction is pretty sweet, it's 40%. Our fourth skill is steel grasp, it brings so much to the table. The value you get from that skill is absolutely crazy, including vulnerability, berserking, pulling targets toward you, and extra charges that are just insane. The nerf to rallying cry which gives you results generation was pretty huge. Barb struggles kind of with that especially if you have no aspect for shout cooldown reduction, we have to wait a long time for shouts which are pretty huge.
