*Updated with new Kanai's cube 8/26

This Build focuses on Poison Damage and the Helltooth set for T10 / GR45 speed farming. I have found most of my T10 runs are 4-6 minutes and GR45 are around 6-10 minutes. This build utilizes gear that everyone should have starting off when 2.3 goes live accept for two of the new pieces. I think this build can only get stronger as I get more in tune with the play style. My target is T10 clears in <4 Minutes.

Gear:

Wrists - Jeram's Bracers

Wall of Death can be cast up to twice again within 2 seconds before the cooldown begins

Increases the attack speed of Wall of Death by 30% Note: This will not be reflected in the item's tooltip

Jeram's Bracers now roll with +75-100% Wall of Death damage

Weapon - SuWong Diviner

New Legendary Staff

Acid Cloud gains the effect of the Lob Blob Bomb rune

Rolls with +75-100% Acid Cloud damage

Hellfire Ammy

I am running Int, CHC, CHD, Spirit Vesel passive

Kanai's Cube

Weapon - The Furnace

Armor - Grin Reaper

Mimics' skill damage now gains bonuses from your items

Removed the cooldown on mimics' Acid Cloud and Zombie Charger skills

Mimics can now cast Wall of Death

Increased cast range of mimics' skills

Ring - Convention of Elements

Play style:

Cast your 3 wall of Death's around teh area

Keep Horrify up as often as possible

use Jaunt to escape or as a defensive measure. I also find it nice to use to get in the middle of a pack of mobs and cast horrify

Spam Acid cloud when possible - The point is to constantly be spawning mimics which boast damage insanely now.

Keep your Dogs and Garg up for more single target support

Changes I still want to test

I was using the paladin follower for the heal but I want to do some testing with the sorc to see how her confuse and cc can help.

Possibly using J_Maccs suggestion and try the in-geom for the cooldown reduction on Wall of Death.

I like this a lot I have been playing with something similar.

Differences are as follows:

Gem of Efficacious Toxin > Bane of the Powerful: Because the 10% + DOT + % Poison damage stacked on that DOT beats it out (in my setup, imo).

Short Man's Finger + Convention of Elements + RORG (in cube): Because the additional dogs work as a shield (+ see below why RORG).

Swamp Land Waders: + 20% Poison damage.

Furnace (in cube) + witching hour is what I am using as well; but, I am also wonder how Transcendence + SMK would work, because you could also run BBV instead of dogs, or possibly lose horrify and use Head Hunters + BBV (either slam dance for damage, or rain dance to spam more acid cloud).

Thanks for posting.

Edit* Also Bad medicine could easily replace horrify with this build. Going to try and test with pierce the veil + bad med + rain dance.
