Hi.
I followed the gear and build down to the letter, even with stats rolled as best possible. I found that with anything less than Paragon 50-100, this build isn't even close to capable of clearing a GR 20 solo.
Basically the build put's out around 550K-750K damage when critting, but your video shows you critting for upwards of 10million? A GR20 level white trash enemy has around 16million health & an elite has about 250million health. I have the CDR/CC/CD and mainstats required, as well as weapons & items rolled the same or better than those presented in the video.
Could you please advise if you have items cubed or something, because the surviveability and damage output needed to manage a GR 20 just doesn't seem possible with this build and only 4 pieces of the free set you start with. Short of fishing for dozens of grifts until you come across a specific map with no enemies that kite, the build just cant sustain the damage from enemies that attack from distance & you constantly get knocked away by mele enemies so you have no opportunity to kill anyone caught in the slow time or black hole bubbles.
OK, so I switched to the playstyle of killing all white trash and ignoring all elites/champs & was able to complete a GR20 now with 30 seconds to spare, using this build. Thanks for the help reddit people !!!!
I have completed multiple GR20's with this build, Live on stream, exactly how I explain in the video. I'm rolling Wizard next season and will use the build to do it once more. I really don't know what to tell you. I faceroll with this man.
I was struggling to do the GR 20 solo for those last two pieces for the new season, and this worked like a charm. The only thing I tweaked was replace Unwavering Will with Unstable Anomaly for a bit of "just in case" survivability. Just wanted to say thanks!
Thank you for this build! I was killing myself trying to run a gimped meteor FB build but this is much better for early season farming.
