I did not use BL for the same reason it was broken, up to nm100. (I made a sorc after my barb was done, and I play mostly Sorc also since release)
For AoZ, I incorporated the skill back into my Tal Rasha build. It was actually in my build when I started but I replaced it because it was clearly broken.

Man, I miss season 2 . Hopefully Season 4 will be just as good, especially since the people who made season 2 is making season 4 
Yeah maybe Microsoft should sack the odd season team

You’re letting other people you don’t know affect not only your gameplay, but how you view yourself. Think on that…
As to D4 this season, I’ve played every class but Rogue. They can all clear content perfectly fine with one-shots for elite packs in NMD100, and most can one-shot even bosses.
Druid - Lightning Druid stands there and kills everything. Standing still. Doing almost nothing. Bosses usually die within 3-5 seconds. Not quite a one-shot, but close enough. I’ve got an unoptimized Pulverize Druid as well that has killed Lilith quite easily.
Sorc - Mine is Blizzard too. Every boss dies. Every. Single. One. Lay up Blizzards as the boss spawns = instadeath. I can actually clear faster on my Sorc than my Barb, and it’s far more reliable since I don’t need to rely on Crits or Overpowers.
Barb - HotA is a beast. Charge is overtuned damage-wise. Even without the big numbers, it would still clear quickly.
Necro - Currently Bone/Summon Necro, it’s what I enjoy. Working into the 80s now. Compared to the other classes, Necro is sllllloooooowwww… not in terms of damage really (although they lag a bit), but in terms of movement abilities. Plus those skeletons like to pull things from rooms you don’t even walk inside. Oh hey guys, I brought friends! I expect I’ll still be able to scale a bit and conquer NMD100 with one-shots/quick clears of elites there, as well.
As for Rogue, I’m saving that for S4.
tl;dr - don’t allow others to affect what you enjoy. All the classes can clear content.
Before bringing stuff like AoZ they should balance the classes. No 1-shots anymore.
Same chances to beat it for every well done build (no broken builds).
Imagine Flurry-Rogue having fun in AoZ too.

the only thing i dislike in D4 is that i can’t go full solo like i did in D3.
I mean I dont really dictate what I play cause some random dude can charge and instant kill a group of stuff in one sec. Theoretically every single class in the game can also do that, you just are noticing barbs do it because that’s what is popular at the moment. I can clear full wave of enemies with my pen shot rogue, but you won’t notice cause barbs are doing their thing. It doesn’t make me want to make a barb tho. I love being pen shot Rogue. I got off tornado werewolf to play pen shot rogue, and I don’t regret it. Both are 100 anyway lol. I bounce between them. I may be crazy enough to also level up a light sorc to 100 but I kinda dont want to burn myself out. Anyway my point I intended to make is play what’s fun and you will keep playing and be happy enough.
I dont necessarily believe that automatically makes them nerf barbs. They stated after the S1 debacle that they wouldnt nerf classes mid season. That makes me think they may buff some other classes to bring them up.
Only time will tell……

What you “feel” is not the reality. Many other class can rock the content as easily as barb. I think at least at rogue and druid as I don’t know much nec and sorc.
So, you use the right word. It’s a matter of your feeling, but not the reality of meta current state where barb is not the only one to have tier S or tier A builds.
Maybe you are just playing with the wrong people, dude?
really? I am full solo much more in D4 than I was in D3.

Was thinking the same, everything is soloable in this game. EVERYTHING.

For what it’s worth, Barb’s aren’t ruining the game for anyone. They are the easiest to play and smash through content.
People read the tier lists and copy paste the strongest builds and never learn how most of the classes and skills actually work.
That’s worse for the game than any one OP class because after you nerf one class the next tier list defines the meta and that’s all you will see.
Unimaginative and uninspired gameplay. That’s what will ruin the game.
Play what you enjoy is the answer. No reason to FOTM at all.

Be an independent thinker. Play what you want.

Independent thinkers usually get thrown in a psych ward or jail these days. People dont like others thinking for themselves lol
I like the rogue this season too I’ve been playing both
I don’t feel forced at all
Then you are not good at playing this game.
Sry…that is the only reason possible.
Next season will be another randomly chosen OP class build. Guess you haven’t figured out that it’s working as intended. This is their version of engaging seasonal content. They rotate busted builds.
They watch the community cry for balance and never doing so.
Make 100 overpriced cosmetics to purchase while avoiding adding actual loot in game.
Making seasons as short as possible to maximize those season pass profits to take advantage of simpletons that buy the battle pass acceleration garbage.
The terribly thought out “end game”.
The boss material black market they seem reluctant to do anything about. The obvious solutions are to disable the trading of materials or remove them entirely. – Awfully suspicious behavior.
This list could go on and on and on… But sure keep on crying about barbarians.
