There is a chance that that patch will go live the day s4 ends. If you read carefully through their announcement you will see this
The non-Seasonal Greater Rift Leaderboards will also be wiped at the end of the Season. However, you'll immediately be able to compete in the next Era with your non-Seasonal heroes (including those who have just rolled over), and will not have to wait for the start of the next Season.
So, if the new era starts right away,there is no chance that ppl will be able to rank there with the current sets/builds and in general the current meta. Blizz will have to push live 2.4 so that LBs reflect the new changes.

The FnR bonus affects all damage and not just spenders or generators, it's all your dmg,pets,leg. rings,conduit etc etc. Just forget you saw this video.

You should understand some mechanics before making videos. Now a lot of ppl will see the misinformation that you said in your video and believe that the rings are bad while it's the completely opposite. Please take the video down and something else in general because this isn't the first time you make a video and you fail at presenting how things work. You have to realize that it's quality that matters and not quantity. Making videos every day just to get the clicks won't take you far if said videos suck.

Actually there are a lot of gear combinations that we can go next patch. Be it full IK with BK weapons, hybrids of IK/WotW etc etc. There is variety and all those combinations are pretty much identical in dmg output. Atm the IK5/WotW3 with rorg/unity seems the best combo to go.

its x100 times better to use FnR or even unity/rorg. SoJ is pretty much dead in the upcoming builds. If you go full IK then FnR is better,WotW/IK hybrids rorg/unity still better. Unfortunately Skull Grasp is a wasted slot since as it has been theorycrafted and even posted on the forums the affix is additive which means the dmg it provides is negligible.
The only use it can have is for the start of a season where the option are limited but after that the ring isn't worth it at all. Ofc you are free to use it if you find it fun etc but dont expect tons of more dmg because skull grasp won't deliver that and you will be disappointed. A tour in the barb or ptr forums over at the US bnet forums you will see why ppl have been asking for blizzard to make the dmg affix multiplicative and not additive. On a first glance the ring sounds really good but it's not.

lol skull grasp is insta salvage. The affix is additive and not multiplicative and on top of that it doesnt increase the dmg of dust devils too. Shit ring is shit.

Next patch the only weapons that will matter is IKBB and BK set. Ashbringer is shit and since we wont be going raekor's, furnace will be rarely used.

Something to keep in mind though,in Cookie's video, Slaughter still had a 1.00 proc coef which made mirinae always proc. A few days later blizz stealth-nerfed Slaughter's proc to 0.25 which of course leads to a big loss of dmg from mirinae. Dont get me wrong, its still going to be good but it lost a bit of dmg.

Thanks for posting the build MC. Unfortunately they stealthnerfed slaughter proc coef. from 1.00 to 0.25 a few days ago which is going to suck for mirinae procs but its still really good.

Leapquake for now is dead,they might make it good in 2.3 but atm its pretty much raekors and of course with the patch in 10 days the new builds with wotw/ik.

What he meant is that the bonus only goes up to 200% so even if you hit 5 or 10 targets the buff to the next sweep attack will be 200% which for sweep attack isnt that much.
All in all the shield is a big let down starting from the part that its not a crusader shield ( it cant roll cdr,wrath regen etc etc. ) and on top of that its the worst item they could have put that affix since you cant you piro marella.
The bonus of Denial should have been included on the Golden Flence weapon and as previously suggested granting all runes of sweep attack would have been a lot better than this 200% dmg.

Its not only the IK that got nerfed though. IKBB got nerfed also as well as they removed the hidden mechanic that was left there from a previous set version ( the extra 500% weapon dmg that the ancients were doing and one of the main reasons that the set was performing so well ).
So all in all,the 500% to 100% nerf shouldnt have happened considering all the previous things I mentioned.
Imo it should have gone to either 300% or 250% and I still believe they will buff it to these % before the patch goes live because atm with 100% the 6set bonus isnt worth it.
