Build Guide

Tal6 Electrocute MH for low gem leveling. Hybrid build (group or solo). Works best at GR 50-60. Main focus is trash clearing, which makes it a great complement to the Shadow DH and Archon Wiz / In-Geom builds, since these builds tend to focus more on elites. Runs should be about 2-3 minutes.

Forgot to mention: FB 2pc (shoulder / boots) is a good swap in place of shoulder / Ice climber boots if preferred for double second life. I still think the Ice climbers will be the better choice for this particular build's purpose (lower level speeds) though.

While FB 2pc may save your life more often, it's animation is very slow (contra to build's purpose), often putting you in bad position too. Ice climbers save quite a bit more time by allowing you to engage frozen packs.

Possible swaps can also be seen as secondary build listings on the d3planner link above:

FB 2pc (instead of Ice Climbers)
Glass Cannon (instead of Power Hungry)
Blur (Instead of Power Hungry)
Gogok (Instead of Trapped)
Toxin (Instead of Trapped)

Are all great options, sometimes with different purpose in mind. For example, Toxin would really only work well in really low GR and more often than not, in solo.
