Hardcore Tier List

Maxroll's Hardcore Tier List ranks a build's power relative to all others. The best builds stand in S Tier and are expected to outperform others. We consider many factors when placing the builds, but mainly focus on their raw survivability and reliability, even on their Starting Planner Setup. Choose wisely, read the guides and don't die!
