Healing really shouldn't be much of an issue since the only mobs besides the rift guardian that should ever even have a chance at getting in your melee range is a Elite because they aren't knocked back by the stampede. Everything but those 2 mobs should be slammed against a wall until it dies. Shield glare is alright but yo u can't waste a second every 5 seconds shield glaring its not really a dps increase in later rifts. You are better off using Iron Skin so you don't have to move as much and spam Horses more.
Swap your Templars last talent while fighting for a burst heal and swap it back to wrath regen. No reason not to intentionally proc Akarat Prophet before it gets refreshed for a full heal.
Also, Yes the blind from the Glare is the only way to get that dmg buff.
Also, crit dmg gem is worthless on your follower. They cap at 150% crit dmg(they get 50% base) so just get 100% on the relic and get max IAS, CC, Str on the rest of its gear.
Drop Wrathful(it gets worse the less your stampede costs from Law / Akarats) and get Holy Cause(or if dying Indestructible)
Drop Shield Glare for Iron Skin - Steel Skin(I think) it absorbs 50% of all dmg for 7 sec(with normal CDR its like 75% uptime) - I guess if you aren't doing things that hurt this is worthless but you should use this for higher GRs
You for sure need more CDR(getting Akarats to only 1-3 sec CD is basically required for all 3 specs of crusader) and drop justice and righteous passive.
Drop Justice for Provoke Too Scared to Run this will help give you on demand wrath.
Drop Righteous for Long Arm of the Law.
If you still have Wrath problems swap Law of Valor to the one that reduces wrath cost by 50%.
You also need to level up the Attack Speed stacking Gem that stacks 15 times and at lvl 25 also gives you CDR thats very important.
Solo GR Raekor is gonna win no matter what. You can clear like 35-38 with WW/Leap/CoTA but GL past that imo. Raekor is getting 40+ on season now and non season upwards of 43.
Only Downside to barb is their lack of single target which has made me swap out of my barb lately on season I got to GR 37 at like 12m clear but it annoys me 39+ is basically based on did you get lots of packs + an open rift to drag everything with you around the world... I love the spec but barb just annoys me with its lack of Rift Boss dmg .. clearing the rift itself is a joke with 100% ignore pain with ignorance.
Show me a video of a 35+ rift barb elite kill with fire chains/electrify and I'll say were fine. (not with immunity amulet).
But yeah I can kill electrify on 33, but 35+ its instakill. Glad I only play solo to be fair so at least I can skip them.
Ignore Pain with Ignorance is Bliss + Battle Rage spam with the belt that gives 5-6 sec longer Ignore Pain + enough CD(since u want it anywya for charge) all those packs are pretty easy even on 35. Ignore Pain up spam battle rage while charging them you won't be in any pain really long as you have unity and a decent amount of base resist.
Lvl 35-37 GRs Electrified do not one shot me. At most I drop to half HP after 1 charge. Which you just Charge > BR > Charge > BR and repeat till pack dies its really not that hard.
The small exploits hardly changed anything or at all. Sure they got some paragon EXP gain... not much? Highest season char is like 540ish? im almost 430 just spamming T6 rifts and 35+ GRs I don't care if someone is 100+ ahead means shit to me.
Also, the leveling "exploit", pft lol, if anything it was better. No one wants to level for 4 hours or w/e it takes in a 4 man group spamming bounties on w/e level you can do it on the real way. People only care about max level. Sure you could go for one of the first for max level, but since everyone(if you didn't your bad basically) used the miners gold and other few to level it was still a race(kinda RNG but idc about leveling first)
Also, ya paragon exp getting passed to non season won't put people that high. The EXP from 500-700 is more than 1-450 or something around that. It would be the same if they spent all the time they did during season just playing non season its no different. You just feel like you did more starting from fresh.

Dmg-Dmg on weapon means nothing now that % dmg roll has been fixed and the 10% holy dmg passive on crusaders has been changed from needing Holy-Holy to just 10% dmg period.
% X Skill Dmg increase increases spells that are specified as X Skill.
As for Akarots being X skill I am inclined to say it makes everything you do in that form that dmg type based on how Archon now works as a wizard.
Eh getting 6+ lph... focused legendaries at that too. Say you really only need 1 or 2 items to complete shit. This is def worth. Me and my friend farmed for 4 hours he got all 6 peices of Jade Rad on his WD and I got 25 leg chests but they all sucked... just need vyrs but w/e
Its def worth if you want specific legs and are high paragon... granted hes only 360 but im 606 dont really care about leveling at this point tbh just want to gear all of the classes for diff specs

On the other hand the Ranged Leg Gem is based on where your pets/sentries are. Hence why the gem isnt good solo but decent in groups.
