Hey guys, today I want to show you a baseline fire Barbarian Raekor's build in patch 2.1.2 where the set receives a couple changes to make it more fluid and arguably the fastest T6 clearing build out there. There are two main versions - fire and physical - where the latter wins out in higher grift tiers, but given my gear (and how easy T6 is now), I'll be showing off the fire.
I go over the build, gear, paragon, and clear part of a T6 rift. Enjoy and be on the lookout for the solo greater rift progression series using this set, where skills and gearing strategies will vary based on the tier!
so you say, if i want to clear lets say GR 43+ id rather go with the physical build? Iam using fire and for some reason (prolly because i dont have a ancient furance yet) cant get 43 in time done.
Definitely. Anything past 40 you should go physical. Physical is just better all around, but fire is a solid alternative. I'm currently running fire because I just don't have equally good physical gear yet.
The DOT and the gem are both physical, that is why. IMO they should make the DOT bleed the element of whichever skill rune you choose but Blizz does a good job of pigeon-holing everyone into one thing.

With physical you can go to sleep at RG. I play phys and it's great on big packs and in a group, on RG when you don't have the A team ( Call of the Ancients runed with Coulcil rises ) you can pretty much light up a cigarette on GR 45+ and enjoy the view.
Edit: I play with a perfect rolled Ancient Heart Slaughter, I doubt a Styngard Decimator with best rolls will change anything.
I've been deliberating whether a RoRG/Unity setup with IK set (boulder breaker) would make sense with perma fire ancients. You'll end up doing a lot less elite damage (no furnace, no soj) and you lose Cassius belt, but you have ancients up the whole time. I just don't know if the tradeoff is worth it. Alternately I might drop the toxin gem and go frenzy/mirinae. Tough choices..

Ancients die way to fast to be worth it.
Imho the deeps loss from just the furnace alone isn't worth the trade.
I tried 47 this morn and ancients dying like instantly not worth :/
