This build has always been about killing before getting killed. It is very squishy unless you have the gear for it. I'm assuming this is solo play and not split bounties or group T10 (cause of the unity talk). Even with mostly ancients and pretty high gem levels, there are instances where I will die in split bounties if I'm not careful, like the fire chains affix.
Yes, Vile Ward will help with dps. More targets hit the more damage you do. I would go with that instead of gold wrap. To help with survivability, I would go the route of the GR build with esoteric gem and ancient parthan defenders. Also need more crit chance on jewelry slots and helm.
Not sure how the above poster resets WoTB without boulder toss. Yes, it fulfills the F&R spending part, but the main role of boulder toss is to reset the cooldown on WoTB so you can have it at 100% uptime.
If you are still dying with GR build, you just need better gear. Nerve of Steel passive also helps a lot. Get it with a hellfire ammy or switch out pound of flesh for it. Will slow down your runs, but dying slows down your runs more.
I only have 8% CDR. 12.5% from diamond in helm, plus the 10% from paragons and never have an issue resetting the leap cooldown, with the caveat below. You can also weave in cries and shouts to fill up the fury orb for boulder toss.
There's a mechanic with leap that I cannot figure out. If my leaps land on mobs, I generate more fury than if they land on empty areas. The fury generation is coming from leap itself and the triggered earthquakes from the Blade and the Earthen Might passive. However, nowhere does it say that more fury from landing on mobs. Am I missing something here?
Then make sure you always leap into combat, there's not much trick to this build. Always leap, keep shout and cry on cooldown. Toss to empty fury and lower cooldowns. You shouldn't be getting one shot at GR68. Limitation of this build is damage, not survivability.
Jumping forever is still not very fast compared with the other builds. Use leapquake and farm grifts for gear and shards to gear for IK/Raekor/FC build. Farm with that.

Wow, I'm jealous

There's also no life per fury on belt, and as Bathrezz mentioned, on weapon. Very important in my experience, especially on GRift bosses.

It's faster than Leapquake. It is a bit squishy though. Can get one shot if not careful.
Haven't tried the others. They may be better.

Why do you have Ring of Royal Grandeur cubed? Need to cube Band of Might.
