Focused on being Lazy and not worrying too much about Sweeping Wind Stacks (so vengeful wind) and Torch cubed. Zodiac should keep Insight up the majority of the time, and abuse the epiphany teleport instead of using DS charges. I recommended Air Ally even without Crudest Boot, but it's really just an open skill slot. I just didn't feel like having anything to dilute zodiac.

Of course, if you don't feel like being lazy or get above Paragon 800 with mostly ancients, EQUIP or CUBE In-Geom! You should have enough TX power to not have much spirit issues without Torch and 1-3 shot most packs solo. YMMV - If you are focusing on Death Breath's only or join a 4p group, drop Avarice for SoJ and Boon for Wreath of Lightning. But if you play solo mostly like me and just want DBs, don't close the rift immediately after killing the RG if the floor is very elite dense - just keep going until you reach a lame floor. Here is some "less-lazy" try-hard version sticking with Empowered Wave: -- Click to go watch a boring YouTube Video of me -- Collecting 451 DBs in 28minutes = 950+ DBs/Hr!!

Build Guide

Solo Sagewuko with your choice of element for Wave of Light. I prefer Empowered Wave since it has the highest burst damage, and the classic Bell animation/sound that brings back memories from pre-RoS D3 farming MP10. Plus the Epiphany bug seems to be a bit more pronounced with Explosive Light (See: https://gfycat.com/CraftyWelllitHamadryas ). But I do swap to a few more runes in the video:

- Pillar of the Ancients, the way the pillar deals damage over time with a proc coefficent, you can drop Vengeful Wind for In-Geom.

- Wall of Light - use Relentless Assault as a passive

- Shattering Light / Explosive Light - can use Zei's Stone as a decent gem option.

Thanks for reading and have fun! As always, if you aren't killing stuff fast enough, drop the difficulty!
