I am currently working through campaign as warlock.

Curious if others are having more fun on other builds and if I should restart after campaign for end game.

The majority of players started lock and after a handful of streamers referred to it as "clunnky/slow" it was quickly overshadowed by Barb, yet again.

I'm absolutely having a blast blasting hc on my hammerdin and Zdps Support Paladin. It's not meta (well the hdin isn't atleast), but still, having an absolute ball.

Sorc BL is back and putting in some work. Rogue is awesome again. Pretty much all classes are feeling something special this season. Just test them all out and play what you enjoy looking at everyday.

Best of luck & if you start hc, pm me for a welcome to HC starter package +Leveling sold separately (sorry that sounded funny I'm jk, I'll power level you for no charge my friend).

Edit:
For the poll I can't vote because the fastest/strongest build doesn't quite make sense. Fastest isn't always strongest and strongest changes almost every 24 hours due to bugs/patches etc. with new season. My advice is to check the LB's. You can now "View Build" on the Top 10 players and inspect their swagger.

Thanks, and good points. Would you suggest continuing with lock to completion of campaign even if I am considering switching just so I can skip it on the next class? I also don't play HC cause I am constantly dying :rofl:

Yes, I would definitely finish the campaign on lock. It's quite enjoyable! GL HF!

Lots of bugs atm. For example, warlocks are doing over quintillion dmg. Blizzard said they’ll try to fix this by next week.

As for the classes, they are all pretty strong, but without the bugs, either ball lightning or static blizzard sorc or whirlwind/ancients barb.

The most casual/user friendly/less gear requirement builds are: static blizzard sorc or ww barb.

Check out Maxroll or Mobalytics for the tier lists.

Speaking of patches, apparently every class can stack resolve with glynn's anvil aspect and become a T.A.N.K. I haven't tried it, but I'm hearing people in game ask whether it's a bug or if it's intentional.

Sorc is the fastest/strongest without bugs
Barb is insane because you can't die but the speed is lower and also the dmg.
