I jumped into Diablo 4 last night with my Necromancer, hellbent on finding the quickest way to level up without dragging my feet. I’m always messing around with builds in this game, and this time, I wanted to share how I actually did it step by step.
First off, I started a brand-new character, picked the Necromancer class like always, and dove straight into the opening quests. I remembered my old playthroughs where I’d waste hours on useless builds, so I told myself, “No more fooling around—let’s find the speediest path.” I began with a basic minion setup, summoning skeletons left and right. It felt sluggish right away; my bony pals were dying too fast against bigger enemies, and I barely made it to level 5 without yawnin’.
Messing Around with Different Builds
Then I switched things up because the minions just weren’t cutting it. I tried a bone spear build, focusing on ranged attacks. Loaded up my skill tree with sharp shooty stuff, and boy, it was way better—I zipped through mobs like butter and hit level 10 in under an hour. But then I ran into bosses and got my butt kicked real hard; my health was dropping faster than my Wi-Fi signal during a storm. I kept dying over and over, which pissed me off big time.
So I went back to the drawing board, scrolled through my options, and figured, “Why not mix it up?” I experimented with blood magic next, adding life-stealing skills to stay alive longer. That was a game-changer! I was healing while attacking, and I stopped croaking every few minutes. My leveling pace picked up, and I breezed past level 15 with no sweat.
What Finally Worked Fast
After all that trial and error, I honed in on the best combo for speed. I ended up using a hybrid approach:
- Started with blood skills for survival—strong stuff like Sanguine Brace to keep my health up.
- Tossed in some bone spells for heavy damage, like Bone Splinters to clear groups fast.
- Kept a few minions around just for distractions, but not too many ’cause they slow you down.
This setup let me steamroll through dungeons and quests without stopping. I blasted from level 20 to 30 in a single evening, feeling like a total badass. No more wiping out, just smooth sailing and mad XP gains.
So yeah, after all that testing and grumbling, I found my go-to fast way: stick to blood and bone mixes for quick leveling. It’s messy but fun, and honestly, it saved my sanity compared to other builds I’ve tried. Now, I’m off to tackle the endgame—no regrets, just pure carnage!
