Hello,

Since now we are deep in the first season of ROTW. What are the capable P8 herald farming builds here outside?
I am quite sure that the ES Warlock is somewhere on top, but what about other characters?

taking your feedback :D

Farmed about 15 sunders using only nova and zerker

Its not faceroll lile warlock, they both can struggle a bit vs bad t5 affixes but make it up in some way: nova farms tokens faster than wl and zerker gets 2 looks at loot per herald with a massive amount of mf.

Also my zerker generates a suspiciously high amount of tokens given the relative slow clear speed, could just be bias / sample size tho

Mosaic, java, light sorc, fire sorc, basically any strong build is more than capable BUT there are Heralds that only warlocks can kill because of their juicy demon tank. Everyone else including mosaic w max fade gets one shotted including merc and player. Though Im curious if necro could fare okay with all the summons.

Mosaic struggles with Heralds that have thorns, tough.
I think Hammerdin is one of the best.
The problem with Nova is when Herald has stone skin + magic resistant. Takes too long to kill.
