Final Thoughts

The HOTA Barbarian is a fan-favorite for Diablo 4 Items good reason- massive damage spikes, stunning screen-wide AoE, and satisfying crunch with every slam. While it lacks a bit of mobility and resource generation flexibility, the setup is simple and incredibly effective when optimized.

Pros:
Huge Overpower and AoE burst
Earthquake synergy is fun and explosive
Great synergy with Season 8 powers

Cons:

Lacks mobility
Needs setup time (Earthquakes > HOTA)
Resource uptime can be gear-dependent

Whether you're tackling Helltides, Nightmare Dungeons, or endgame bosses, HOTA Barbarian remains one of the most rewarding builds to buy Diablo IV gold play this season.
