**Before we start anything, let me state some things:**

* The Best Solo Build for WD in Patch 2.3 is **Helltooth**

* The Best Group Build for WD (Until they fix HT lag) in Patch 2.3 is **CarnEvil**

* The most Optimal Torment for this Build for Bounties is: T7

* The most Optimal Torment for Normal Rifts is: T8, but T9 is also pretty solid

**Angry Chicken Build**

The Angry Chicken Build is pretty straight forward. 6 Piece Arachyr Set to increase the Damage of Hex Angry Chicken by 800%, Manajuma's Set to increase Angry Chicken Damage by another 200%, with the added effect of 15 seconds time allotted in chicken form, increased speed, and a exploding like palm effect when enemies die to it. Even though hex angry chicken does "glitch" from time to time (causing you to do no damage when exploding), it still proves itself to be an effective speed farming build for Normal rifts and bounties.

**Gem Setup**

**Bane of the Trapped**

* Solid Damage increase for our build, will allows us to 1/2 Shot Elites, and Rift Guardians

* Auto Procs itself @ LV 25 (We will always be within range due to Angry Chicken explosion radius)

**Bane of the Powerful**

* 20% Damage Increase After defeating an elite, solid choice since out goal is to do as much upfront damage as possible to take out packs in one shot.

* 15% Increased Damage vs Elites (requires level 25)

**Molten Wildebeest's Gizzard**

* Regenerates 10000 Life per Second (Increases per level), this gem is here to provide us some additional toughness, and survivability while running into huge mob packs.

* After not taking damage for 4 seconds, gain an absorb shield for 200% of your total Life per Second, this is the Real reason why we are running this gem, the shield will greatly help mitigate damage.
