what is the overall budget of demo video?
sorry if you mentioned it in video, watched just a pieces.
killing speed looks very low, a minute for mp5 elite pack, 10-15 seconds for mp1.. that is just 'meh'
For me, it's about finding viable builds and sharing them with you who are more capable of investing in them. There have already been videos showing variations of the Weapon Throw build cruising through MP10 no problem, so it's more my lack of uber gear than the build itself. I also hate Paragon and Monster Power levels, but I know there are many of you who want to know if a build can actually handle higher MP levels so I try to demonstrate that. If you're looking for the most efficient setup you probably aren't going to be satisfied with my builds, but hopefully you get some ideas worth experimenting with. I have more fun finding viable builds than I do farming Alkaizer runs. I try to be up front about that
The majority of the builds I'll be showing are on a 5-10mil budget while every so often a 10-15mil build will come along (Like the upcoming Hand of Ytar build that uses very specific gear). I very rarely spend more than 2-3mil on an item. It's worth pointing out that you can take my gear as an example and achieve the same results with 3-5mil and 7-10mil respectively given that most of my cost is iterating through gear until I find items that "fit" well.
In case you didn't check the video description where the links are, here are the stats for both sets of weapons that I use and I'll add them to the OP as well:
With the world ending at all, I figure today is as good a day as any to start (and possibly finish) releasing build guides for the multitude of quirky builds I've racked up this past year.
My first guide is the incredibly flexible Weapon Throw build that removes the need for generators via Battle Rage with Into the Fray. It also maximizes the benefits of the No Escape passive by using Weapon Throw and Ancient Spear for strong burst AoE damage through Wrath of the Berserker with Slaughter.
I recommend watching the Gameplay Preview first before the Build Guide itself as it is quite technical. Going forward, I'll be releasing guides for every class covering as many of the lesser used abilities and runes as I can.
Please feel free to critique me or offer feedback that I can use to improve my guides going forward

Better late than never right? Just like Diab. . . oh wait. . . ;P

Axe + 300th Spear - http://d3up.com/b/968 (60k DPS before WOTB)
Mighty Weapon + Sever - http://d3up.com/b/196806 (54k DPS before WOTB)
The numbers start unbuffed, but you can turn on abilities and passives to see where they end up at.
