Immidiately after the Rathma i started experimenting with different corpse explosion setups and decided to try and find the MAXIMUM dps corpse explosion build out there. Almost all Corpse Explosion builds that you see there in the wild are speedfarming ones, but i was never interested in these. With current level of power creep you can essentially speedfarm with any set and any decent skill. I was mostly interested to find out if Corpse Explosion is even capable of doing Greater Rifts on it's own or not. Well, looks like it can! After several days of testing different setups i found a combination that works. Breezed through 80-81-83-85-86 and eventually completed a 87 with 2 minutes left, all done with miserable 1,7m damage, so potential is there! GR90 is not huge deal with something around 2m dps.

Nice build. Even Inarius Corpse Explosion build for grs is not that bad. I was doing some testing last night. It's not very optimal though but for the fun aspect of the game it's playable. The main difference in my set up is that I'm using all poison items/skills/runes since Nayr's buff stays at max stacks. Unfortunately, Poison set up wouldn't work with Trag'Oul because you need the physical rune for Corpse Explosion for the 6 set bonus.

There is one downside however and it's for all LotD builds. You basically can't do anything every 30 seconds and just run around like a headless chicken. I see it in every LotD build and your vid is a perfect example of it.

Anyway, I like this build. Anything but another Corpse Lance build is a plus.

I actually kill quite a lot outside of LoTd. It's hard to survive, so running around is jusst for that. At the same time i am exploding corpses that Golem lays down.

That's one thing but you're also running around because you're buying time for LotD. All LotD builds are like that. Once it's down damage isn't good enough, unfortunately. Even the most recent lance build with Trag that's doing GR100+ is the same way. No primary skill. Just run around and wait for LotD.

Nope i ain't buying time. I am simply trying to survive. Tragoul has no damage reduction so one-shots are very often unfortunately, more often than for Inarius and Rathma and even shitty Pestilence, so running around is mostly a surviving issue. I am not hunting elites and not waiting for LoTD. I am looking after golem and explode the corpses he lays out.

Golem does have a CD as well. Like I said, I like the build, but it really is CDR dependent. That's not a bad thing. It's less CDR dependent than your typical Corpse Lance builds because you can get Golem CD down to maybe 30 secs? Maybe 20 seconds if you're CDR stacked which is still a lot of downtime. You clearly manage your CD's well.

Yeah, it's still CDR heavy indeed, which is a shame. I really want just to explode corpses as much as possible. But this is as close as you can get
