Impressive. Very impressive. As much as I admire this guy's skill in grouping and cc'ing the mobs, I can't help but wonder what this game would be like without pylons in greater rifts. he absolutely wrecked that RG though.
but i hope blizz implant som kind of penalty when u die in Grift in SC. Looks so lame when ppl dies many times and still get the rank 1 AND brag about it.
HC ftw
There is already a pretty steep penalty. Plus 5 seconds down time every time you go belly up.
And congrats to the accomplishment! Ideal rift, but also very well played!
I just wish they would remove pylons. I really hate the play style of saving pylons, or scouting the entire map to force pylons to spawn on the next map.

Well, usually I'd say "please add build and some more text info to the video and so on", but you can see gear at the end of the video and the OP isn't even the authors of this video - plus, many people seem to be interested in it despite the missing build link (which I'd be really interested in, he's currently in speed GR gear).
A couple of things:
Hardcore players, please refrain from those statements - there are two game modes, HC and SC, and SC players don't go into your forums and make derogatory statements there, so you should respect the SC game mode as it is completely legit. You kind of make yourself look like members of an elitist community, that's not how you get more people to play HC.
Yes, pylons are absolutely terrible and it's a shame that Blizzard still doesn't remove them. It's ridiculous that you can kill a GR55 instantly with 2 pylons but need 10 minutes without them. However, note that not everyone is pylon hunting and unlike prior to 2.1.2, you can get high rankings without pylons (just need an even better rift and so on). It's a good point to bring up tonight in the Tavern Talk or in a separate thread, but not here.
Does anyone notice the irony of his gear? I mean, everyone is crying that they can't get an ancient Furnace. "Man, RNG hates me, I can't get an ancient Furnace so I'll never get into top 100 rankings hurr durr". That guy just annihilates a GR55 rift in less than 10 minutes and grabs world #1 - without a Furnace. That should be a lesson to all of us...
An ancient heart slaughter is still something very fucking awesome though. Furnace is such a sought-after weapon because it doesn't force you to go for a specific element (and obviously because its terribly powerful).
I'm forced to run fucking fire because an ancient Maximus is the only 2h weapon i have (With like 10 non ancient furnaces... fml).
Gratz on the clear to Njinx, very well done and sick rng.
Yeah they need to remove pylons from GR *cough Wyatt Cheng *cough

A Furnace is only required for the RG in high GRifts basically and this cheating person does not fight the RG.... he stacks pylons instead with an exploit.
Knowledge of game mechanics does not equal exploit. Are we doing this again? Picking rules as we like? Alkaizer killed the RG with all pylons to get GR52 on seasons - everyone's praising him for best player ever. Some other player comes along and displays basic knowledge of game mechanics (the pylon spawning mechanics was explained weeks ago in a video by Wudijo, it was even on the DFans fronpage) and people claim he's "exploiter" and "cheater". What the hell is wrong with you people... many many top leaderboard ranking (at least solo) were achieved with the help of one or more pylons, except for Demon Hunters maybe who don't need it as badly.
Stay on topic, stay civil and polite, and if you have nothing to say but to flame move on.

You proved my point on a soft spot for exploits lol... If this is "clever game mechanics" then why are they being removed in next patch? Nuff said

Your post was removed (and you received a warning) because of foul language. Stating your opinion is okay, insulting users is not. Watch your language.
Also, there's no "soft spot" for exploits; but this is simply no exploit, and it also won't be removed in the next patch. And with this, back to topic. If you have any further questions about moderation please use the feedback forum or PM me (or any other mod), but do not further derail the topic with your off-topic comments that are borderline trolling. You made your point. If you want to discuss the pylon problem make a separate thread, any further comments calling people that click on pylons "cheaters" will be deleted as off-topic.
There was a post about them being removed I think. But of course one of the best features coming in the new patch happened to be a bug ^^ I didn't see any other posts about this topic. And to the posts above, saying that what that barb did is an exploit is just plain ridiculous and if it's being removed than blizzard finally understood it's a stupid thing, not them realizing it's an exploit. Maybe now make a thread about banning people who use new game mechanics to spawn pylons...

People that always have to talk down on accomplishments on SC while proclaiming themselves as HC heroes are really, really lame.
That's pretty much the dream rift. Very well done. WIll be hard topping that. I just hope they remove pylons from grifts and rebalance the guardians.

Agreed. Pylons need to gtfo of Grifts.

I didn't know you could force Pylons to spawn like that on a map.
Why are Pylons even in GRifts?
GZ, but man this is Diablo, you shouldn't be forced to roll perfect rifts with perfect pylon placement to compete, no and no.
