My WD is loaded w/ Zuni gear, and possibly the best SMK I've ever seen. With this, I've been able to clear gr45, but every time I try to go over this, I fail.
In theory, would I be doing more damage with taskers and zunis ring, or ancient Zuni gloves that are 10/50 with vit and int and a convention of elements?
Been working on the grouping as you guys mentioned.. Seems to be helping. I switched to apds, as well. I did find a maximus (non ancient) and have been trying that out with the chain on rgs. Pushed a little higher, beat my pr on 38, but still getting unlucky with pylons and such.
Thanks for the response guys. I do have a nice set of apds I have, only really used them before my unity but I still do find myself dying from time to time.
I have full IK and bulkathos.. It's my understanding 2.2 will be when s2 ends and s3 starts, so farming that stuff for 2.2 won't do much for me for s3 if I'm playing seasonal..
I might be the minority here but I change my build up for group play a ton.
I toss my RROG in, and get full set bonuses from both IK and Raekors. My IK Boulder breaker isn't the best, but your main job in groups is clearing trash and w/ ward bloodshed you should still have no issues.
With this, you get full FC bonuses, constant COTA and then I use Council rises to get the 50% reduced. I also put in inspiring presence to keep group & pets alive. You'll lose pride of cassius this way, but if you're playing correctly and avoid chains and other stuff, you should be fine.
Other thing I try sometimes is the Lightning elite nullifier build w/ skull of resonance use WW. This dumps globes like crazy, charms elites and keeps them away from your damage dealers, which in groups, isn't going to be you a lot of times.
I'm a long time lurker and first time poster.. Been playing since vanilla and since the d1 days (I miss arch angels staff of armagaddeon)
Anyways, my Diablo profile is above. On my seasonal barb, I'm clearing up to 38 currently, but feel I'm running into a damage wall.
Obvious ones for me would be a weapon.. Ancient furnace or furnace to be exact, or even heart slaughter. The bardiche actually is awesome for me right now, the cows hit like a tank and help against RG.
Other than that,I have most of what the high builds recommend, granted not perfect rolls. How is my skill selection? Stats on weapons?
In the stash, I have a lot of stuff to switch out..
Ancient stalgards (4300 dps) Ancient RROG (STR, CHD, LoH) Another maras w/o socket Better soj w/o socket (trying) Leorics APDS ancient ice climbers
A better cassius is obviously high on my list too, but again, single target damage is the issue.

Hoping someone has done some testing with this..

Excited to hear your advice. Thanks.
