Build Guide

Best DB farming build available, fast and safe and fun.

Make sure to use the numlock trick for Explosive Blast, Frost Nova and Diamond Skin, skip everything but elites and you are golden.

Make sure to keep F+R up by casting Magic Missile regularly and make sure at the beginning of the rift to cast every spell once to get the 4 stack Tal'Rasha-buff going. Search for elites and pylons. Use Magic Missile and Blackhole, collect DB, and use Teleport (without CD, thanks to In-Geom) to find the next one.

Also probably safer than other similar builds thanks to the Frost Nova that actually freezes enemies, that's why it can be used to rush GR55-60+ in 2-3 mins with Molten Wildebeest Gizzard instead of Boon of the Hoarder and Strongarm Bracers instead of Goldwrap in the cube.

Proof of my loot from 1 hour farming T11 rifts, without going for maximum efficiency or having ubergear or high paragon. Everyone can do this as soon as you have the necessary items (i.e. Wand of Woh).
