Blizzard has launched Diablo 4 Season 10, named the Season of Infernal Chaos. This season introduces several new features, including the Chaos Armor item tier and adjustments to the game’s endgame loop. The Infernal Hordes mechanic has been reworked, and players can now face a new ladder boss, Bartuc, Lord of Chaos. To assist players with these changes, the resource site Maxroll has released a comprehensive Season 10 Compendium and updated its collection of guides and tools.
A significant addition is Chaos Armor, a special tier of item that ranks above Ancestral gear. These items are unique because they can contain effects that are not normally found on their specific item slot. This functionality expands buildcrafting possibilities by giving players access to powerful effects that were previously mutually exclusive. Maxroll offers a detailed Seasonal Guide for those seeking more information on this new system.
Coinciding with the season’s launch, Maxroll’s Diablo 4 Planner has been updated. This tool allows players to plan and theorycraft their character builds, including equipment, skills, paragon point allocation, and mercenary setups. The planner now includes options to select the new Chaos Armor and Chaos Perk effects introduced in Season 10.
The introduction of Chaos Unique items has prompted significant shifts in the build meta. Consequently, Maxroll has updated all of its Diablo 4 Tier Lists to reflect the current power levels of various builds. The updated lists provide rankings for different gameplay objectives.
The Leveling Builds list is ranked based on the speed and efficiency of progressing a character from level 1 to 60. For players focused on acquiring resources and clearing content quickly, the Speedfarming Tier List is available. In this category, the Sorcerer class continues to dominate the S-tier, largely due to its teleport ability. The Overall Endgame Tier List presents builds recommended by Maxroll’s content creators, highlighting those that perform well across a wide range of activities, including boss encounters, the Pit of Artificers, and speedfarming.
A dedicated Pit Push Tier List focuses on builds that excel in the Pit of Artificers, designed for pushing into higher-tier content and scaling effectively with improved gear. This season, Spiritborn and Druid builds are noted as being particularly well-suited for this activity. Additionally, a Bossing Builds Tier List evaluates builds based on their single-target damage output and their ability to defeat Tier 4 bosses efficiently.
Maxroll also provides a variety of other resources for Diablo 4 players. A section for beginners covers many of the game’s core mechanics and systems. The site’s Build Guides section contains over 100 updated guides for all classes, covering both leveling and endgame content. For advanced players, the Meta Section details the most efficient farming and pushing strategies. The Boss Section includes guides on how to defeat Diablo 4’s most challenging foes and lists the rewards for doing so. The source article was written by IGN staff with assistance from the Maxroll Diablo 4 Team.
