This Leveling Tier List defines the most important factors of a leveling build: Movement speed, survivability, ease of play, damage output and total time to reach level 50. High tier leveling builds are able to clear density as well as kill Bosses, in open-world and Dungeon content. Low tier leveling builds may lack important tools for mobility, or damage output.
The arrows indicate where an item has moved since our last Tier List update.
