So just to be clear, you're easily farming t6??? Because I help my friends level their chars on T5 without any problem in rifts. If you are not, then i don't see how your 700k more ele damage beats my setup.Maybe on paper...
I'm not theory crafting type of guy...I just go in, go out and see if it works for me or not.Before this build i had nearly 80% on fire damage and i couldn't move past t4 solo no matter what i do(t5 only in groups).
Before marauder i had magefist and cinder, could fire 7 cluster with full hatred plus 14 more with discipline(my preparation is set to get hatred).I also could NOT move past t4...
Now, with my current setup, i can fire 6 cluster with full hatred plus 24 more with dicipline(blood vengeance nets me an extra prep while spending my hatred....my dicp cost reduction is 30% atm and 22% on hatred)
My paper dps is 1.15 + 20% from calamity + 30% for wolf + 55% on elites with aughild or 40% without...G iven everything, on elites my paper dps is around 2,4 mil for those 10 sec wolf is active. I can get extra 20% for using steady aim but i hate loosing 5% CC archery gives me.
IF a cluster crits all, it hits anywhere between 25-55 milion(main crit plus grenades, main is usually 25-30 while grenade ranges from 4 - 6.5)...hence my speed killing a yellow elite under 15 sec on T5 . My wolf crits between 4-7mil, Spider 3-5, and rest from 2-3 mil. EVEN if they did no dmg what so ever, their sheer number give them excellent tanking ability allowing me to pound them with ease from a safe position.
I am not underestimating elem damage...its just that currently this setup works wonders for me.What i WOULD like is perhaps getting prides fall helm because it gives 30% reduction which works well since i can fire at least 5 cluster b4 something hits me...
Now this is just my opinion...Feel free to comment if you think I'm wrong
Mandatory : Royal Grandeur ring, Ring of Jordan
Set 1 : Blackthorne, this comes with a variation of whether do you want a 3 set bonus or 4 ( Belt, Amulet) for 3set, (Belt, Amulet, Pants) for 4set
Set Bonus : Inc DMG against elites 10%, Dec DMG from elites 10%, 250 VIT
Set 2 : Aughild, (Bracers, Shoulders)
Set Bonus : Reduces melee DMG by 7%, Reduces ranged DMG by 7%, Inc DMG against elites 15%, Dec DMG from elites 15%
Set 3 : Natalya, (1H Xbow, Chest)
Set bonus : 20 discipline, Crit chance 7%, 250 DEX
Set 4 : Marauder, also a variation (Helm, Gloves, Boots) if you want 4set on Blackthorne or (Helm, Pants, Boots) if you want Magefist
Now, depending on preference one could also switch natalya chest with cindercoat and lose ring of Jordan to Natalya ring. Though in my experience its not necessary as you will have around 90 discipline to begin with.
In Total you should get around 50-55% bonus dmg to elites, 25% less dmg from them plus those 7% reduction from melee and ranged, every pet from marauder and if chosen immunity to effects from 4 set blackthorne. Paired with Calamity, T6 should be a breeze
