What made you decide to go for the Raekor 4-set? With In-Geom cubed it doesn't seem like the cooldown on FC would be a problem even without merciless assault and dreadnought, and you don't need the freeze CC, so all you're really getting is the damage from battering ram rune/2set and the fury from stamina rune. The new shoulders and a gavel of judgement would help mitigate the issue with fury if you choose battering ram, or vile ward would help with damage if you choose stamina, and you'd be able to cube a better jewellery effect or keep the RORG and use a better helm.
Is it just that you're blowing stuff up this fast anyway so it's better to have the safety net on your FC usage in case you get a bad rift and can't sustain In-Geom?

yes the 2nd charge on raekor is a huge difference in speed clearing
in my next video I'm uploading you can see me in speed group run and most times the barbs that are running pure 6 IK lag behind greatly
both work fine, I personally prefer the hybrid

What made you decide to go for the Raekor 4-set? With In-Geom cubed it doesn't seem like the cooldown on FC would be a problem even without merciless assault and dreadnought, and you don't need the freeze CC, so all you're really getting is the damage from battering ram rune/2set and the fury from stamina rune. The new shoulders and a gavel of judgement would help mitigate the issue with fury if you choose battering ram, or vile ward would help with damage if you choose stamina, and you'd be able to cube a better jewellery effect or keep the RORG and use a better helm.
Is it just that you're blowing stuff up this fast anyway so it's better to have the safety net on your FC usage in case you get a bad rift and can't sustain In-Geom?

Due to popular request for a p25000 build that incorporates ancient spear and the new mighty weapon.
I've theorycrafted this build which should perform, although it has not been tested yet.
