About these guides
These articles are written by the developer of D4 Builder about how the app works. Every screenshot is D4 Builder's own drawing over a real game capture, and quoted text is what the app actually shows. When the app changes, the guides are updated with it.
D4 Builder imports build links from Maxroll, Mobalytics, D4Builds, InfinityBuilds and D2Core. To see which builds are recommended most today, use the separate Top builds page; the app itself and the download are on the home page. Spotted a mistake or have a question? Send feedback.
