Build Guide
Hey guys!
This build is a personal favorite of mine, among all crusader builds. And i think it deserves more glory! Even though LON bomb is crazy good for both speedfarming and gr pushing, this build is also equally fast(and even FASTER with augments/higher paragon) in Nephalem Rifts and lower Greater Rifts for gem upgrades/bounty farming.
For the last two patches (2.4.1 and 2.4.2), both buffs and nerfs happened.
1) Akarath's Champion is a global DPS multiplier (2.4.1)
2) Enforcer is a global PET's dps multiplier (instead of additive) (2.4.1)
3) Bane of the Powerful is a global dps multiplier (instead of additive) (2.4.1)
4) Judgment -Resolved nerfed from 20% to 8% CHC (2.4.2)
5) Laws of Valor - Critical nerfed from 100% to 50% CHD. (2.4.2)
With all ancients and no augments i am steamrolling everything up to gr55-t12 in 3-4 minutes. For t13 you need more paragon (1500-2000+)\augments to be effectively strong and speedy.
General Game\Skill Tips:
1) 50% cdr is good.
2) Eternal Union/Baleful Remnant is good for lower content like t6-t10.
3) Hasteful can be switched to Firestarter, especially if you run with Fire Walkers in lower grifts.
4) Endurance can be used for lengthy bounty/boss runs.
5) Laws of Hope - Wings of Angels/Warzechain Armguards for more crazy speed in Nephalem Rifts
Overall i suggest to equip all ancients possible first and then augment best pieces. This will compensate strength adavantage of higher paragon.
I am running gr50 very fast with p1350 and NO AUGMENTS. This is equal to p800 with 10 lvl 60 augments.
Thank you!

1) you don't need stricken
2) swampland waders always will have intelligence, not strength
3) you need in-geom to reduce the cooldowns of everything
4) bombs are a waste of time in this setup. Cooldown is too long for them to be effective.
5) hexing pants are better than waders
6) Running without akarath's champion and in geom instantly results in 35% less damage.
Overall the setup you have is not super bad or completely ineffective. It is decent, just won't be as fast and effective as the pet-centered build.
how much cdr do i need to effectively have 100% uptime on akarats with in-geom? or is that not possible
Interesting build
Petsader is pretty hard to gear for, but when you are geared it's a blast for mats farming
For more fun I added more pets ... replaced one skill with Falling sword - rising brothers. Thanks Angry_roleplayer for a super fun build. .
Yo Angry, check out my Speed Hammer build and tell me what you think. It's a little bit slower than this one but much easier to gear for. Thanks! Keep up the good work!
Hi Angry_Roleplayer have you ever thought of using akkhan to boost more damage? :X
Okay I understand. :X quite hard to get all ancient
Angry_Roleplayer, would you think that this Phalanx would be the best build for a crusader to farm the normal rift? I've followed a Akkhan's thorn build, when there's a bunch of goblin spawns, usually there would be like 4/10 of them will be escaped. :/
