The best way to farm blue items is to boost people.
Join a few boosting channels and say that you will boost low geared 70's through T6 rifts. All they have to do in return is to pick up blue/white items and drop them on the floor in the city. It's like having 3 treasure goblins following you and picking up stuff for you!
I'm using the same tactic
I'll boost you at t6 and you'll give me half of the blue items in return,
I am not a guru for these topics but what I think is;
a decent rolled calamity is better than any other 2h crossbows;
1st reason; you get free marked for death passive (%20 increased damage buff and free's a spot where u can use wolf or vengeance or sentry)
2nd reason; as you mentioned you will hit less but you will hit more and regen more hatred works nice with iceblink gem (but if u use sentry no need for iceblink gem, you can get more dps from the other gems. iceblink gem not really necessary at group play as there will be a wd or monk at meele which slows), and I like hitting faster most of the time.
Though Stonesinger is widely known and expected as the easiest of bosses, it turns out that it's one of the harder ones. I believe if this was The Binder, Saxtrix, maybe even Man Carver it would of been killed I think. Either way I need to learn how to deal with Stonesinger better for the future.
Good Job on the kill
I was doing 38 rift and I had 8 mins left on the timer and saw stonesinger (I was quite happy because I could smack him down with FC) I was wrong, his meele hits were hitting too hard and I was not able to finish on time (died too much)
he is really hard for barbarians, piece of cake for demon hunters. (at high levels)
Hello carnack,
nice guide thanks you influenced me
I am thinking to use this build with my raekor barb, but can this build work with raekor dps gear
plus equipping burning axe & stormshield & skull & 2 tanky rings
this is my barb's gear; http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/lewo-1986/hero/13636786
reasons:
you don't have ias belt, which means that your lacking attack speed on belt, no attack speed on neck, only 7 as on 1 ring.
on gear you have % 31 increase attack speed, weapon speed 1.5 on wf and % 48 on tnt which adds to 1.965 x 1.48 = 2.9 (not adding paragon points)
on etrayu you have 1.4 attack speed, 1.4x1.31 =1.834 add tnt =>> 2.71 (you cant reach 2.84 breakpoint have to add paragon points.
by using windforce you can free attack speed paragon points into cc/cd and cdr which will benefit you more and also 325 dps on bow is another factor.
you have strongarm bracers, on elite packs you can fire a couple frost arrows for knockback and get additional damage.
by the way most of the time you won't get hit by meele attacks, go for a hellcat or fleeting strap or even harringtons (insome of the grifts you can find clickable objects)
Me and most of my friends are playing diablo since the release and tributed the clan name for famous blacksmith Charsi (Charsi Fan Boys Club)
We are mainly from Turkey and Turkish speaking friendly clan (everyone knows&speaks English),
we're mainly aiming for Season & Non-Season Greater Rifts and T6 runs. also we have many friendly members who boosts and gears up newer players.
What we are looking for is, being respectful and be friendly
try to get a kridershot & etrayu or a good dps bow for 2.84 breakpoint.
you need a better gloves (with chd), a better witching hour with vitality, you definetly need a better bracers (reapers wrap with cold dmg or lacuni bracers with cold dmg with crt and ias kind of bis)
btw you have a very good necklace
just as other people said, fish for better rifts, with better densities
I guess you won't have time to spam elemental arrow with kridershot, as you need to move and you cant stay immobilized.
(even at rifts level 30+, you dont have much time to spam elemental arrow with kridershot as you're trying to avoid and kite the mobs, and also inorder to keep steady aim active you have to be 20 yards away from the mobs)
Helltrapper is necessary because you cannot use a bombadier's, you need helltrapper procs for extra sentry. (else you stick with 3 sentries instead of 5)

a cosumeable which upgrades your legendaries to ancient legendary seems really nice.
and you can make that consumeable rare so that it won't unbalance the game.
most of us trow away good weapons just because they are not ancient.
you can get a 3900dps normal furnace with % 10 dmg + % 7 ias.
for an ancient furnace 3900dps is quite low.
I would roll %7 ias on SS and use with tal's oh.
Hello Wudijo, thanks for the information it's really helpful,
I have a couple of questions,
I currently have two amulets which is better for UE/FIRE (as you stated on your topic Ancient rolled dex is on par with elemental Damage)
which amulet would you use?

Currently I use a manticore,
I recently rolled to % 7 IAS, is % 10 RCR better than IAS?
Thanks for the help
I'm using the same tactic
I'll boost you at t6 and you'll give me half of the blue items in return,
win-win condition for both side

3rd reason:
Quote from wudijoBalefire = Calamity > Kridershot > Odyssey's = Windforce = Leonine > Regular Bow > Crossbow = Regular 1h Crossbow
This is for the Fire UE build, I will publish some math on this by the end of the week.
what I would rerolll is;
If i'm only playing UE set, then 9 disipline to 12 disipline, but that would be a waste for this bow if you plan to use it at other builds.
hatred regen to % 7 as, you will get high damage increase but for this dilemma faster regen faster spend.
reroll poison damage, if you can get to max damage you'll get decent damage increase.
also another option is to get % 10 elite damage increase. I guess you don't have any elite damage on you. this might be helpfull.
if you boost these rings, there will be no other competition.
you have to boost the stats and abilities of the other rings in order to contest with these 2 rings.
remember that under unity it says you gain % 50 damage reduction.... (still f.cking OP)
and for higher greater rifts you cannot do it without unity.
it will only give you sheetdps.
nothing much to say
