Build Guide
This is a mele tank and spank fast boss kill Raekor build with decent rift lvl clear times.Just cleared a 46 with this build yesterday hitting rank 4 on the 2.1.2 Normal Leaderboards. It's a furious charge build that also uses frenzy to mele the Grift boss, proc mirinae, and keep in range for bul kathos ring to tick for 2000% weaponb damage twice per second (about 30 mil each tick for me.) This strat will not work against all bosses but will make both Ghom (Being the most optimal boss because he also spans adds) and Blighter tank and spank fights as you can watch in my video taking under 5 minutes for a kill w/o pylons and about 3-4 mins with a power pylon. There are 2 other poison bosses The Binder, and The Choker that are made easier by poison immune but are not exactly tank and spank. The binder has a mele attack that can one shot but its not super fast and you can avoid it. She also spans adds to speed up your dps by allowing charge resets. The choker also has physical damage although not to rough he does a lot of kiting that will slow your dps down a bit. Other bosses like saxtris are also possible to kill with this build so as you see you have quite a few clear-able bosses that will lower rng and help keep clears more consistant. This can work with other elements of immune but some elements are less common to spawn ass bosses or have a mix of 1 element and physical. On top of that you need lots of dps so your immune neck has to have str(or ele %), crit chance, crit damage, and a socket making maras the most common choice due to it always rolling strength and crit chance and only needing to roll a socket or crit damage randomly.
Anyway, Im having the most trouble with killing rift guardians, which got me thinking. Does bane of the trapped's aura actually slow the RG or is it mainly for the groups in the grifts?
Could we maybe be better off with bane of the powerful or wreath of ligtning (would function more like mirinae just with more of a prolonged damage over time)
I can see where wreath of lightning may not work as well as say bane of the powerful, but then again this is under the assumption that bane of the trapped doesnt work on rg's.
Any input would be appreciated,
Thanks,
BaR
