Warlock is truly an insane class in Diablo 2 Resurrected, and this is easily the best build at the moment. I'm sure many people agree. If you're looking for ridiculous builds, this D2R Echoing Strike Warlock build guide is for you.
D2R Echoing Strike Build Guide - Top 2 Best Echoing Strike Warlock Builds
The reason the Echoing Strike Warlock is so broken in Diablo II: Resurrected is simple: the skill scales multiplicatively in too many ways at once, and all of them stack cleanly. Echoing Strike throws multiple returning weapon echoes that each hit, cleave, and pierce, so every point invested into Mirror Blade, Bane, and Consume compounds raw physical damage instead of just adding to it. Whether you’re chasing a fully optimized, aura-stacking endgame monster or a surprisingly cheap Uber-capable setup that survives by out-leeching everything in sight, this guide breaks down the two Diablo 2 Resurrected best Echoing Strike Warlock builds available right now.
No.1 D2R Echoing Strike Warlock Endgame Build
This is a broken Diablo 2 Resurrected Warlock build that deletes everything and that's not even perfectly built. Not even death can save you from this Diablo 2 endgame Warlock build. When you layer pierce to enemy defense, massive enhanced damage from sacrifice buffs, and triple aura stacking (Concentration, Fanaticism, and Might), the build stops caring about attack rating, immunities, or positioning. Faster Cast Rate then pushes it over the edge—higher breakpoints mean more echoes per second, which directly converts into real DPS rather than tooltip fluff. The result is absurd sheet damage that actually translates in-game: instant pack deletion, bosses evaporating on Players 8, and smooth teleport-based gameplay that never feels clunky.

No.2 D2R Echoing Strike Warlock Budget Build
This Echoing Strike Warlock works so well in Diablo II: Resurrected because it solves Uber Tristram the cheap, mechanical way—by abusing attack speed, leech scaling, and defensive breakpoints instead of raw gear power. Echoing Strike hits extremely fast at the 125 Faster Cast Rate breakpoint, which means constant multi-hit returns that immediately convert into massive life recovery through Life Tap and standard life leech. That speed-based sustain is the core reason the build survives Ubers with minimal button presses: you’re never trying to out-tank them, you’re out-leeching them. Cheap d2r items like Insight, Spirit, Vampire Gaze, Skin of the Vipermagi, and Laying of Hands provide exactly what Ubers demand—FCR, resists, leech, damage to demons, and hit recovery—without relying on high runes or niche uniques.
