Diablo 4 Barbarian BuildEarth Shatter Upheaval Deathblow Leveling Build
My all-time favorite leveling build just got a whole lot better!! Find the Uber version of the build here: Dragon's Breath Upheaval
This is the version of the build you'll be using from level 0 to when you enter world tier 3.

Where are all the aspects?! This is the early game variation so you should not expect to have the materials for all aspects, BUT, if you can afford them refer to the Mid-Game variation of this build.

Build Notes
- Cycle between Upheaval, Deathblow & Lunging Strike
- Iron Skin on cooldown
- Charge Anytime you're CC'd or see a big juicy pack to smash.
- Pop CoTa on tougher enemies.
This is a Walking Arsenal build, we want to swap between our weapons with every attack so that we're getting the maximum bonuses from the key passive.
Walking Arsenal builds synergies really well with Berserk uptime, Critical Hits, and Overpowers very easily and we will be taking full advantage of that.
This is an extremely powerful early-game build that will see you easily through to farming Ubers, it's the perfect season starter!
