TLDR Demon Hunters are still your best bet. Most efficient and faster than any class to get your stash tab (assuming u dont have all of them already)
Witch Doctors
- Helltooth: I'm currently playing S9 for kicks (already have all my stash tabs) and wanted to try something different since I've been using DHs for the past 2-3 seasons. Went with Witch Doctors since the buff to Arachyr looked promising. WRONG! Yes, Arachyr is nice and even HT and Jade are good, but for solo and group play ... multiboxing WDs SUCKS ASS. Yes, I said it. Helltooth is garbage because the best HT build, HT Garg relies on the stupid garg AI. Years of ppl complaining about pets AI and Blizzard just doesnt give a #$%@#$ about it. If 3 gargs are dumb, 12 are 4 times dumber. It just doesn't work and u are squishy as hell cause u cant add dogs ... if u do, its WORSE cause they block Gargs. GR70 is such a pain in the butt!
- Zunimasa: don't even try it. Worse set EVER. Carnevil sucks the most. They didnt fix the hitboxes so u dont hit @#$#@. And if Gargs are retarded, dont expect much from fetishes.
- Jade: Extremely squishy, mediocre damage and so vulnerable to all CC effects. Prepare for knockback and fear nightmares. U have no line of defense and u are so damn close to packs u get dsync very easy and destroyed.
- Arachyr: the "OP" set. Great damage, ok surviability ... but for solo/group. Multiboxing is VERY BAD. Again, u need to get close and that makes u very vulnerable to CC. Not to mention u rely 100% on Soul Harvester + Lakumba's bracers ... u CANT play without that combo. Extremely squishy without them. GR70 is faster than with HT but expect at least a couple full team wipes per GR. If u forget to keep up your hex buff, u die ... if u dont have your SH stacks, u die ... if u dont cast your LS + Haunt, u die.
- Any type of chicken build: good for T10 or whatever, not gonna work on higher difficulties without full team wipes. In general the class sucks for multiboxing. It will take u forever to get strong and be able to do 80+. The lack of a inmmunity spell like Archon, Vengeance, Wrath of the Berserker, etc. makes it the worse class to multibox.
- Need to try LoN walker as a chill T13 build which should work but that's about it.
Wizards
- My second class since WDs didn't work. Manald Heal ring is amazing but relying on Zodiac ring makes it difficult to keep all wizards the same. I'm gonna try a ranged build which im sure it will work cause the MH proc damage is retarded. Even non Archon builds based on Electrocute or Arcane Torrent should be 10 times better than WD.
Barbs
- Nice for T13, thats ALL. Beyond that, they suck.
Crusaders
- Was interested until they nerfed the hammers build to the ground. I'm not gonna bother with LoN bomb.
DHs
- Even stronger than before. The buffed Marauder set those very good at 70. By far the most efficient farming class. U can easily finish the season journey in less than 2 weeks of casual play. Sticking to WDs and Wizards, but I'm so regretting going with WDs.
Monks
- Dont even bother. Epiphany is almost a must for every build and its a dsync nightmare.
That's it ... my rant about S9. I wont even bother with the meta.
