1st off this build is already posted http://www.diablofans.com/builds/69910-2-4-gr85-earthquake-solo-group

2nd off you seem to be putting +cold% damage on your items which is pointless and possibly counter productive with this build since its all physical.

3rd Weapon master can be used instead of animosity and that will fill your fury up faster if you are hitting groups of people (which is what this build was made for)

4th You can use shift to throw the boulder at nothing if you need the cooldown to reset but have no target which can actually help you move faster sometimes if you use leap to travel faster

5th Although using a rotation would make the build run allot better/smoother it is not required. I use this build and all i need to do is leap into them them press every button all at once over and over

I am using a similar build (I made a few changes to my build) which is able to do a greater rift 73 so far without much of a problem and my gear is almost perfect (needs more cdr but every thing else is perfect according to the page i linked to above). However I swapped battle rage for ground stomp with wrenching smash rune because I wanted a build that didn't require any thinking, rotations, or having to watch timers (I can just use leap to gather a group then press all buttons repeatedly while standing in middle of that group) I also use weapon master instead of animosity because I happened to get a really good hellfire ammy (best 1 I found that I can use this season) that had it.

The bracer cold% was an error i was up for like 30 hours sorry about that, also looking at the build you linked ya i can see the similarity .. its just i made this build for me to remember the stats priorities and i'm pretty sure that i mentioned that and also noted that i'm not the founder of this build .

Weapon master isn't a valid passive for this build since we are using Animosity for the extra 20 Fury not the Fury regeneration passive .. with 170max fury you can reset your leap easier and get more heals from Boulder toss, Also when you leap on nothing the amount of Fury you are getting is way less than leaping on mobs so there is no point of dumping your fury on nothing and lose all that damage unless you really really need to leap to escape something or need the heals to survive .

Finally you gonna need the rotation at higher Grifts in order to squeeze your DPS and be able to actually finish on time .. without a rotation you will find your self Fury capped .. Shouts on cd which is a dps loss .. More Boulder = more dps, and when you spam all of your fury generators brainlessly you actually lost 1 - 2 Border toss per Rotation .

Thank you for your comment

1st I think you meant the bracer and the rings cold damage was a mistake since its in both spots

2nd when you make fury faster you are able to use bolder toss more often (since you're fury gets filled allot faster) which will make it so you can reset your leap easier, get more heals from Boulder toss, plus More Boulder = more dps, and therefore your point about weapon master not being a viable alternative for Animosity isn't valid (you said it all yourself I just copied and pasted).

3rd You do not get any more fury from the leap skill when you leap onto mobs then you would just leaping onto nothing because leap will always only generate the same amount of fury and you do not get more for hitting mobs unless you are using weapon master. However getting hit or taking damage will also give fury so that is the reason you are getting fury but that happens regardless what passives you use.

4th With my build I am able to use leap 3 times, use generators till at full, toss bolder, and repeat endlessly regardless if i hit a mob or not. Therefore I can use leap as a means of faster travel without running into the problem you mentioned (I just tested it in town). Faster movements = less time getting from 1 spot to another = faster clearing grift and therefore saying "there is no point" is not completely accurate. Furthermore its helpful in a group if you want to play the scout by going ahead of the party, using your skills to gather mobs into groups for your party, then moving forward once they catch up so they can kill the group while you make another.

Lastly I know that I will not be able to do the higher level grifts without a rotation and I dont really care. I prefer playing the game without a rotation because it requires less thinking since thinking isn't fun for me. I did tell everyone that using a rotation will make the build better/smoother, that I had almost perfect gear, and that I was only able to grift at around lvl 73 without much of a problem. The max I have been able to go to was 75 which was a bit of a pain in the butt and took multiple tries. So if I were to use the rotation I know i could get the build to grift much higher because as I said it was made using the page posted in the link above which is a lvl 85+ build and my gear is almost perfect. I am not gonna bother with that though because it is to much work and I play games to have fun. Thus you do not "need" a rotation its just better to use it for those who care enough to do the extra work. 1 of the main reasons I swapped battle rage for ground stomp was because battle rage only lasts a few minutes and has no cd. So I would have to either watch it in order to know when I need to reuse the skill again or setup a timer that will beep every time I need to reuse it. Plus I wouldn't be able to spam that button without losing all the fury I had (like I said it has no cd). Anyway I know you said you didn't make the build and were only posting it to remember. 1 of the reasons I pointed out that the build was already posted here was because you made it sound as you wanted to know who made the build when you asked "If you know the Guy who came up with this build plz let me know so i can give him the credit". So I figured you might want to know because that person either made the build or probably knows who does. Plus you said "if you think something is wrong with what i've posted here let me know .. i might have a flaw here or there and i would be happy to fix it." So I figured you may want to see that post for yourself to see some things you may be doing wrong and/or read the suggestions made there. However, if I was mistaken in any of that I apologize.
