Warlock Build Tier List — Season 14 (Death Awakening)
Updated July 2026 · Season 14 / Patch 3.1.0
Warlock, the class introduced in Lord of Hatred, opened Season 14 (Death Awakening) more middle-of-the-pack — no Warlock build reaches S- or A-tier in the early Season 14 meta, topping out at B. These are the current standings; the class's trade-off remains a thin defensive tree, so survival is gear-based.
Early Season 14. These rankings reflect the opening of Season of Death Awakening (patch 3.1.0). The meta is still settling in the first days of the season, so build positions will shift over the coming weeks as players test the new Mythic Unique 3.0 gearing.
Lunatic Warlock
New in the Season 14 meta and currently among the strongest Warlock builds.
AoE-leaning caster setup built around the Apocalypse and Demon Summoner trees. A reliable current pick.

Tyrant's Grasp Warlock
