If you’re looking for the best class to play in Diablo 4 Season 4, it’s definitely the Necromancer with a Minion build. Thanks to the companion buffs introduced in this update and the awesome affixes you can add to your gear with Tempering, Necromancer Minions are simply overpowered.

What really makes Necromancer Minions shine in the late game are the Legendary Temper Manual affixes you can add to gear that greatly increase the damage of Golems and Skeletal Mages, making these two minion types the focus of every Necromancer's endgame in Diablo 4 Season Four. However, early-game minions aren't all that effective for leveling in Diablo 4, so we'll be adding some active abilities to the mix for our Necromancer leveling build below. Here's how it works.

This Minion Necromancer leveling build is arguably the best in Diablo 4 season four, out of all the classes. It’s geared up so that your Skeletal Minions and Golems do most of the work for you, while you occasionally swing around with Blood Surge, Corpse Tendrils, and Decrepify to take on bigger, stronger mobs.

Getting high Attack Speed and Maximum Health on your gear is usually the best approach when leveling up, as the Necromancer’s minions now gain 100 percent of your stats. Tweaking your character’s stats to make your minions stronger is more effective than ever. You want these minions to be very fast at attacking and resilient, so they can survive for a long time and take out enemies quickly while you do as little work as possible. Your APM will be close to zero as you level up.
