With full time job, wife and a 2 years daughter, I barely can play 1 hour per day, and I have to suddenly disconnect sometimes, so I mainly play solo... that's the reason for asking for the easiest way... I have nearly all class sets and weapons ancients with proper rolls (no barb or monk) so if 2.6.1 is not nerfed, I will try with sader, my favourite class and lore (old school d&d player here ). Thanks everybody for your ideas!

I did in #5 comment (put the name of 1 ring instead the set between backets). Anyway:

"What about your first build when you get to level 70?

My initial thoughts: equip the best ancient items I have in stash and try a LoN (Litany of the Undaunted) one. At least you will be able to jump to T10 and farm the necro sets (or burn all the mats in the cube to get the sets).

Is there any necro LoN speed farm build?"

Still, haven't found a tested Lon speed farm build yet. Anyone?

Yeah, I agree. With no stash reward, and the lack of time, season are not the same... good luck!

Because now, I have a daughter, and the work, and wife... I can play 30 minutes if I am lucky, so I prefer doing "high end" things... Live change, enjoy your free time!!!!!! ;-)

I just want to test the class to help me choosing next season init char, so I still looking for a fresh 70 LoN speed farm build...

Found this:

P.S. Sorry for my English

I always keep some enigma rings. Spent 1 gem of ease in 1 Custerian Wristguards (gives exp per gold).

Go to highest Torment (6 or 7?) and ask for help in the chat. Spent some enigmas to do vaults. In the first Vaull you reach level 20 (I am not sure, did it long time ago). Rinse and repeat until it is not worth it.

2 more things. Craft 1 hellfire amulet (grants 1 passive), and a hellfire ring = 45% exp. Both don't have minimun level required.

P.S. Sorry for my English

Did it yesterday solo, 1st attempt, 645 Paragon, very, very easy.

Classic WD Helltooth Garg build

Soul Harvest = 5 x 5% Speed = 25% speed
100% speed Spirit Walk in 2 secs
Angry Chicken skill instead Piranhado

Speed move pets passive = 15% / 30% speed

Green Move belt = 30% speed
Unity with Regen Gem (only for running instead Short Man Finger with stricken)
Manajuma's set = 100% speed

Switching to DPS just for the boss:
WH belt for green belt
Short Man Finger with stricken for Unity (recast Garg)
Best DPS weapon (in my case Scred Harvester + Henri's Mojo) for Manajuma

Yeah, get three very good wizards to run it while you sit in town to click Orek. Was quite tight time wise.

Thank you again Fragstar!

I finally quit the ancient Wand of Woh search. Because everything else (including the source) is ancient, I fly through T10 group rifts on my own, without any help. Not ancient weapon or augmented gear needed, with only 560 paragon... What huge amount of time wasted... (sorry for my English)

Welcome to D3. I suggest seriously considering switching to better games. ^^

Ah, game forums... The perfect provider of stupidity and anonymity that allows someone to think theyre so omniscient they can declare something unfit for another persons taste without ever knowing them.

Truly this is the age of miracles and we should all bow down and.... ah screw it lets just have fun with the new village idiot and point out the futility of posting on a Diablo forum that he has nothing good to say about Diablo.

Can we expect news on the first day?

If there is anything major to announce for Diablo (big patch, expansion, new game, remakes/hd versions, etc.) then it is more than likely that it will be mentioned/displayed during the opening ceremony.

The only risk is that there's literally nothing big for Diablo (again!) and they just show some anniversary stuff and just talk about future patch content during their panels/inverviews/lightning talks or whatever.

For thos who are wondering how much time left until the new season starts!

You'd still just manage to see the feathers of my tail disappearing beyond the horizon my friend *cluck* *cluck*

The angry chicken is quick, but you really don't kill anything DURING the moving, mostly at the end. I used to play a crusader that spam steed charge with the In-geom, but when I changed to a WW barb, it was a huge improve.
You kill during your moving, and even after (due to tornados). The best part is that you don't need the in-geom and the continous searching for elites/blues. You just WW till the end of the rift and only need to clic to pick the legendaries.
P.S. I am not English and I tried to be polite, so please be cool ;-)

I was disappointed with the WW barb build. Perhaps my gear was sub-optimal, but any time I gained in the rift killing trash as I went through I lost to the RG with the appalling single target damage.

Besides elites with nasty affixes were an absolute pain. With chicken I barely notice the difference between affixes. With the explosion's CC by the time they land I have SW+SH and at least 2 FWs out. In the next 3 seconds they are all gone. They are lucky to get an arcane beam or a wall out before I send them to an early grave.

And I don't need in-geom either. I cube The Furnace. With GI and a few pickup radius points I barely notice my cooldowns. The only time I miss in-geom is perhaps on the occasional pack of goblins in T10, where it takes me slightly longer because I cannot carpet the floor with FWs unless there is a good bunch of trash mobs around. Said that if I would try to do that I would probably lag to the stone age

And in bounties I can clear the Plague Tunnels and start finding my way to Adria before a WW barb manages to finish Maghda off

Either way, is about having fun. Maybe because I played Jade for a long time the play style of chicken resonates more with me. If you love WW barb, amazing nothing better than finding a build you really like for farming

I used to main a WD in season 2 and I change to crusader because the lack of fast movement. After your words, I watched some videos, and I have to admit that the chicken is very, very fast. You are right, with the hex changes and the new legendary you don't need the In-geom. Good point. The only problem I see is that if you want to do high GRs, you need to change to another build, new items, etc.
I am very lazy now, and the best thing of the WW barb is that the farming and the GR builds are very similar (and I saw a guy doing a 72 solo barb GR). Anyway, after this talk, I am tempted to remove the dust of my old WD and give it a try ;-)
Thanks for the talk. Good luck and happy farming!

Yeah... Any HT build is definitely NOT group friendly. HT lag is a thing, it really is. Which means the entire set and ancillary are useless for this purpose.

Besides the build itself is not useful for pushing GR.

You can however equip Scrimshaw + TotD (Zombie Bears) or SuWong Diviner (Acid Cloud) for pushing solo GR. However past GR62 is hell. If the rift is any good the lag will obliterate you. Pushing GR in off-peak times helps a bit, but the problem is still there.

On the other hand as you point out WW gear can be used in group easy. I have seen many 4 player coop parties with a HotA and a WW barb, and the main difference was the weapons (the guy was using VIT and AD on them, no CDR or iAS).
Horses for courses I guess. I play solo and I am a bit of a conformist (kind of a pre-requisite this is to play solo in D3 without getting frustrated at every step) so WD suits me quite well

Hi Guys,

I'm sure there will be time to re-visit old builds and setups, but most likely will focus on the new set to kick things off.

Return of the Hammerdin?

Usually you have to make swaps in gear/talents for good speed farm potential. The bash build I listed as well as the mat build that was just written would pull an RG in a minute for a good rift or so, 4 for a bad rift. Multi level/empty. I've had T6 RG up in 40s, which isn't awful for a crusader considering I'm used to 30s-70s on my dh/barb. Fastest pull was in a graveyard, 40s with a conduit pylon, and every last mob was dust eater. I'll never see that again, which is why I say 70s is more realistic and that's in an optimal rift. Sub optimal max time is 4-5 minutes, depending on number of levels and mobs.

I've used a condemn and FoTH build for clears and I've tried several different rolands setups, it is really hard to match the double mobility of steed charge and bash. Not wanting to swap gears is holding you back bro, my dh/barb with gr setup lose around 1:30 on a t6 time with decent density. Swap to a speed farm build and RG's are up in a minute or less.

If you don't want to swap around etc. that's a personal preference, if you like the foth skill that again is a personal preference, however you're slowing yourself down. That being said I can appreciate the fact you enjoy FoTH setups, I spent the first 5 months I played Cruz ripping up T6 with that skill and firestarter/darklight before the nerf that is. Fissure is fun to play with as well, you can get the whole screen to be an electric chair for mobs.

His video was wrong and has been proven time and time again. He didn't realize the damage boost was applied right away. So he was thinking his 17mil punish critical were normal and not boosted.

Going to expand on this. Just tested and have some numbers for comparison.

Without Focus/Restraint

-Shield Bash - 600 Million Crit

-Punish - 13 Million Crit

With 1 Buff of Focus/Restraint

-Shield Bash - 833 Million Crit

-Punish - 20 Million Crit

With 2 Buff of Focus/Restraint

-Shield Bash - 1.4 Billion Crit

-Punish - 30 Million Crit
