Diablo IV Season of the Construct allowed other builds to shine thanks to various buffs and improvements. One of the builds that rose to prominence in Season 3 is the "Charge Barbarian." If you are interested in what skills you should use for this particular build, you have come to the right place!

What is It?

The Charge Barbarian, as the name implies, is a build in Diablo IV that utilizes the "Charge" skill. This allows the Barbarian to rush forward, swinging their weapon through enemies, and knocking them back in the process. Charge itself not only deals damage but it is a fun way to traverse the map.

Now, there is a problem with Charge in that it does not work well against single targets. For this reason, the build also uses Upheaval. The "enhanced" version gives you a small chance to stun enemies. Ultimately, you are going for Furious Upheaval so that every time you use Charge, your next Upheaval slam deals considerably more damage as a result.

To provide you with a more reliable and sustainable way of stunning enemies, you can use Bash as well. Additionally, Bash is used to generate Fury, which is further enhanced by taking Battle Bash later down the line.

Complementary Skills

Aside from the attack abilities, what other skills can complement the Charge Barbarian in Diablo IV? Well, Rallying Cry is pretty useful as it boosts your movement speed and resource generation for a limited time. Its "Tactical" upgrade allows you to generate even more Fury.

War Cry is another useful shout that provides you with a noticeable increase in damage. Power War Cry should be taken as its upgrade as it provides you with an even bigger boost in damage, particularly when you are surrounded by at least six enemies.

To round out the skills, you will use Wrath of the Berserker. When used, you get Berserking and Unstoppable for five seconds, which is why this skill is an important part of your rotation. The "Supreme" upgrade enhances Berserking by giving you a hefty 100% damage bonus if you are able to spend 200 Fury while the buff is active.

Here are the skills that you should use for the Charge Barbarian in a nutshell:

  • Bash -> Battle Bash

  • Charge -> Power Charge

  • Upheaval -> Furious Upheaval

  • Rallying Cry -> Tactical Rallying Cry

  • War Cry -> Power War Cry

  • Wrath of the Berserker -> Supreme Wrath of the Berserker
