Build Guide
This is the Rank 1 solo DH setup capable of clearing GR100+ depending on the exact setup this build has quite a high skill cap and requires a bit of fishing to make it worth running, not recommended for beginners. However, if you are a veteran demon hunter or interested in mastering a unique build, this can be highly rewarding to execute properly and quite satisfying to play after you become familiar with it.
The gameplay of the build revolves around slowly taking damage until you are in shi mizu range (below 25% life) and then smokescreen away and strafe for fortress shield while avoiding damage and gathering monsters into clumps to smoke screen into and FoK on lightning CoE with wolf active, lining up this properly will basically nuke everything in the range of the FoK and then you avoid picking up health globes and rinse and repeat, if you accidentally heal you should use that opportunity to pick up all the globes around before getting back into shi mizu range.
HFA passive = Perfectionist > Archery
shi mizu beginner varaition; recommended to try a few combinations of these until you become comfortable;
If you have hatred issues you can wear visage of gunes for the dark heart rune, enabling you to run seethe for the hatred
(if you run seethe you no longer need evasive fire focus and should use hardened for the armor or bola shot bitter pill for the disc)
If you have issues getting into shi mizu range you can wear death's bargin pants from Act 4 & 5 Bounties, these will prevent healing from awareness and get you into shi mizu range anytime you proc
if you have discipline issues you can run preparation focused mind instead of wolf companion, this will give you extra discipline to help spam smokescreen
advanced variation;
changed foundation to advanced version
non shi mizu version; (HC)
instead of shimizu for the cube/armor you can run beckon sail for a second cheat death, doing this will require you prioritize crit chance on your gear.
crit chance is available on gloves,helm,neck,bracers,rings

Would Visage of Gunes be just as good if not better than Cuirass since you have vengance up 100% of the time?
