Best Diablo Immortal Demon Hunter builds for Season 43

The Demon Hunter is the ultimate dexterity user in the Diablo series. Here are the best Diablo Immortal Demon Hunter builds for Season 43.

The Demon Hunter is the ultimate rogue class in Diablo Immortal, combining speed with dangerous traps as they dual-wield their crossbows to bring rapid death to their enemies.

The Demon Hunter is a dark figure who walks a fine line between hero and villain in pursuit of one goal – hunting and killing as many of Diablo’s minions as they can, by whatever means necessary.

The character class returns in Diablo Immortal, a game available on mobile platforms and PC. Below we’ll reveal the best Demon Hunter builds in Diablo Immortal in Season 43, and how to assemble them.

Is the Demon Hunter right for me?

The Demon Hunter is for those who enjoy playing as roguish characters in fantasy RPGs. Those who prefer using skill and dexterity to slay their foes rather than brute strength or magic. The class relies on speed, tactical play, and ranged combat to win so is well-suited to those who enjoy that style of combat.

Those who played as the Rogue in the first Diablo will likely gravitate towards the Demon Hunter, but they also retain elements of Diablo 2’s Amazon and Assassin class. This is especially the case when it comes to the traps they can set and the emphasis on ranged attacks. Of course, it’s possible to build a melee Demon Hunter, but they’re at their best in Diablo Immortal when they’re rocking their dual crossbows.

The Demon Hunter isn’t like the Monk or Crusader in that they’re upstanding citizens, obsessed with following a righteous path. No, the Demon Hunter isn’t afraid to get their hands dirty and engage in a bit of anti-heroism if it helps get the job done. After all, the fate of the world is at stake. If you feel the same way, then perhaps you and the Demon Hunter will be a match made in Hell.

Is the Demon Hunter good this Season?

The Demon Hunter is a mixed bag in Season 43 of Diablo Immortal. They score an B rank in PVP and PVE.

This means that, at least for now, the Demon Hunter is not great at killing demons or proficient at slaying other heroes.

Remember, Diablo Immortal’s meta is much more consistent than games like Diablo 4, so characters remain well-balanced rather than shifting wildly from season to season. Therefore, the below build is still the best one we’ve used so far.

Best Demon Diablo Immortal build

First up is the best PVE Demon Hunter build you can use in Diablo Immortal Season 43, the Strafe Demon Hunter build. This setup still holds its own in solo content and group farming thanks to solid mobility and AoE potential. Here’s how to put it together:

Attributes

When leveling your Demon Hunter for the Crossbow Shot build, remember that attributes are different in Diablo Immortal to Diablo 3. Dexterity doesn’t exist in this game, so we’ll be walking a different path.

Therefore, for best results focus your points primarily on Strength and Fortitude to make sure your Demon Hunter can dish out lots of damage as well as take it. Vitality is also essential to make sure you stay alive, so make sure this is sufficiently leveled too.

Willpower can also be leveled to increase your Potency and Resistances but focus your efforts on the above attributes. You can also largely ignore Intelligence.

Skills

For the Strafe build, your Demon Hunter is going to want to rely on, you guessed it, the Strafe skill. This unlocks early on and becomes your main damage dealer once paired with the right gear and gems.

You can also use your secondary skill, Multishot, from level one, so get a feel for using both together to handle groups and apply pressure at range.

Rain of Vengeance unlocks at level three and can help flesh out your setup, though many players choose to drop it later. Be sure to unlock Daring Swing at level 15 to add some much-needed mobility.

From there, it’s all about refining your rotation. At level 41, you’ll start working toward full uptime on Vengeance, and unlock Crossbow Shot as a backup for single-target situations or when energy is low.

While Demon Hunter is not top-tier this season, once your kit is online, you can still clear mobs efficiently and stay on the move in higher-level content.

Gear

When it comes to rings, amulets, and other gear, aim for a mix of Vithu’s Urges and Issatar Imbued set pieces. These boost your attack speed and movement speed, which helps you get the most out of Strafe and Vengeance.

Diablo Immortal PVP Demon Hunter build

If you’re choosing a Demon Hunter to engage in PVP, you’ll want to run a Strafe-focused build instead. While it’s not the strongest class in PVP right now, Strafe gives you mobility and lets you deal consistent damage while staying on the move.

Demon Hunters are still considered B-tier this season. You can do serious damage at range, but you’re vulnerable if caught in close quarters. Crusaders, Monks, and Barbarians will be your biggest threats, so make sure Daring Swing is always ready as your escape tool.

Strafe lets you kite effectively and punish slower targets, especially in open areas. Pair it with Vengeance for burst windows and Multishot to clean up groups or pressure healers. Wizards can still be tough matchups, so think about using gems or gear that reduce incoming elemental or CC effects to stay in the fight longer.

When it comes to gear, aim to equip the following:

• Head: Boundless Ingenuity
• Chest: Vision of the Lost
• Shoulders: Hailstone Shoulders
• Legs: Coff’s Unrelenting Fury
• Main Weapon: Breath of Winter
• Off-Hand Weapon: The Hungerer
