Every build guide on this site, grouped by class. Each one follows an attributed player recording, so check its game version before you copy it. To choose a class first, read the class tier list.
How to read these builds
- Player examples: each build follows a named player’s run. We have not tested or ranked them.
- Versions matter: the game changes often, so the version shown with each build is part of the advice.
- Talent splits: where a guide records one, it is the final setup of a developed character, not a levelling order.

Warrior, Paladin, Hunter, Mage and Warlock. The other classes link to their talent and spell reference.
Is a recorded talent split a levelling order?
No. It is the final setup of a developed character in that recording.
