This build focuses on getting up to 4.81 atk speed for the 5 attack per second breakpoint on sweep attack and as such, requires at least 6% atk speed on the belt.

Other than that, it's a classic Roland set with high area damage and a little bit of RCR for single target bosses that you will inevitably encounter.

Gogok is here to provide both CDR and atk speed to get to the last breakpoint. Without it, you won't be able to keep perma akkarat's champion and will die.

The build now focuses on fire damage rather than lightning damage, because fire gives a huge damage increase to sweep attack, and you need strongarms for its damage as well, since Golden Flense flail no longer provides an additive damage buff, but a multiplicative one instead (making strongarms much more powerful).

Life per hit is a very important stat to get on either the bracers or the weapon, without it you will struggle a lot with survivability. At high paragon, you can ditch vita rolls for all rez, in order to improve healing effectiveness.

Movement speed up to 25%. You shouldn't have any movement speed on gear.

Put points in vitality until you have +-600k HP. Rest in strength.

You should not be using this build if you are below 800 paragon so the other tabs are irrelevant, but I still put the right order in case somebody really wants to push without the paragon and gear required.

Build Guide

Hello !

Check here to go on the official diablo 3 forums for the most complete version of this build.

This is the build I used to clear a gr115 in solo crusader on EU Non season.

As you can tell by the name, it is a fire roland sweep attack crusader that looks very much like old times solo push build.

After playing around with it for a while doing some pushes I came to the conclusion that this is the best setup by far damage wise, while keeping enough toughness to not die. Still, I would not recommand playing that build with low-ish paragon. If you want to play a similar build, look for Angry_roleplayer's build which is a more "casual" approach of the build,with more toughness and recovery but less damage.

Unlike usual builds, this particular one uses Gogok instead of bane of the powerful because of too long elite killing time to make good use of the latter, and uses attack speed on weapon as well as enchantress pet with attack speed skill to get to the last breakpoint for sweep attack, 4.81.
You can actually get up to 4.84 when maxxed. You NEED the enchantress and 7% atk speed on weapon to get to that breakpoint (as well as gogok
and paragon obviously), but you don't need any other roll on gear so ditch any of those.

This build is made solely for solo push. Do not attempt to use this build for t13/low gr speedfarm, unless you like being inefficient.

This build does not struggle keeping wrath up against single target bosses as long as you have 8% RCR on shoulders and shield. Having 2 rolls of RCR on your gear is arguable more important than having CDR (especially on shoulders), and absolutely more important than area damage unless you're pushing to your absolute limits - which you shouldn't if you don't have the gear obviously.

As far as gameplay goes, just aggro everything you can into the biggest pack you can handle and kill things until you don't make any more progress.

Once you're done, lead remaining elites to a new spot where you will do the same. Hope to find a well place conduit to finish everything off.
