When you first start playing, you’ll have one active skill and nothing else, and you won’t get your first secondary Wrath spender until level 2 with Shield Bash. I love dropping a Falling Sword right off the get-go, but that’s only something you can start doing once you’re around the mid-20 level range. The way Wrath works, you usually enter a fight with a full orb, so you can typically throw a big damage attack at whatever you’re fighting to start with. By level 30, I’m usually rocking this build, which does a decent job balancing between unleashing pain on your enemies while staying upright through swarms of things.

You’ll also have three out of the four passive skill slots with slightly less than half of the passive skills available to choose from. By level 30, you’ll have access to every tier of primary, secondary, defensive, utility, and law abilities, plus all but one of the classes’ Convictions. And if you’re a WoW player who always dug the Protection Warrior or Paladin playstyle but wanted to use a great honking two-handed weapon and a shield in your off-hand, I would definitely recommend giving Crusaders a shot.Ĭrusaders start off like every other Diablo 3 character - practically naked, save for a white weapon and shield. In some ways, they feel better suited to group play than the Barb. I have leveled a couple of Crusaders to 70 through Season play, and they’re an interesting mix of doling out punishment and absorbing a lot of it without going down. If that sounds more your speed, then the Crusader might just be for you. And it’s a class which has a very strong kit of abilities reminiscent of the Diablo 2 Paladin - but with a more martial, zealous flavor. It’s a class whose resource is similar but less spiky than Barbs. It’s a class that can still deal out the melee damage but which also focuses more on surviving. The Crusader is a bit tankier than Barbarians. We’ve covered the basics for the Barbarian class in Diablo 3 already - but what if Barbarian doesn’t do it for you? What class would? Why not the Crusader class?
