IT's what I've been running thus far with molten meteor. Working out pretty well. T6 is a breeze but that's not the bench mark anymore. Tried to get into the higher tiered rifts but the server keeps freezing/lagging for me in addition to really long queue times.
Same here, seems they decided to make wow/firebirds synergy and so far it is decent. That said, I have not tested it on anything above GR1 cause I keep crashing
The old Firebird bonuses will change to new or i need to drop a new ones? Im also curious how to reach 50%+ CDR wihout having captain's set (reroll amulet or ring to have 8% cdr is a huge waste of dps). Also having the firebirds dont allow us to wear aughilds that is huge boost to toughness and damage to elite packs. Any suggestions?
They will change to new, you won't be needing to farm them again. I just played PTR today and I could run firebirds, cpt crimsons and aughilds set. I have about 55% cdr total.
Dropped MM for meteor - Molten Impact
Firebirds (Source, helm, chest, boots, gloves) Aughilds (shoulders, bracers), Captain Crimsons (Legs, belt). Did this because firebirds shoulders are awfully rolled, Don't know if it would work in greater rifts really, haven't tried it yet due to all disconnects from PTR I've been getting.

I'm not quite sure I'm ready to drop MM, I'll have to try, but I plan on trying this first :
- Firebird : helm, shoulders, chest, gloves, boots
- Crimson's : legs, belt
- Strongarm bracers
- Mirrorball
Only downside is the lower survivability because no Aughild's.
MM in offhand, TF in mainhand (will probably replace it with Sankis because I have sickly rolled one in my stash just waiting to socket it)
As of skills MM+BH blazar+Mammoth Hydra and buff trifecta (force wep, prism armor and sparkflint)
Melting T6, highest greater rift I got was 28, didn't have any trouble completing it but I got DC so no idea how far I could go with this setup.
Also I've tried some legendary gems, especially the one that increases Signature damage by 50% (rolled socket in my amu instead of %Fire Damage) and I've felt like I'm doing less damage than before - does %fire affect power of burning effect?
With the latest changes the 50% gem only works on generators not on signature spells (like DD)
It's awesome that they keep adding these items that make me think "this would be awesome for my build", then promptly forbid our class from using them.

Source? cause leg gems were disabled so no one can really test them atm. i really doubt they would do that...

Diablofans the initial post had some info about string changes on legendary gems, but I don't find it anymore lol.
Also it seems like my info is incorrect and the gem INDEED WORKS
Explosive Blast got a huge buff, and now Firebird's is also buffed. Wondering how this might fair.
