Unity

Before looking at those tips, keep in mind this build can finish the rift without legendary gems, ancient items or high paragon, as show in the video at the end. So don't worry with perfect gear.

- Look for secondary resistances to work with your Harmony passive.

- Swap the rings as you want. Unity is only needed if you don't have one of the other defensive items (bracers or shoulders). CoE, SoJ and Chambers are options for more damage output. With CoE you will look to balance your generator with your LTK uses to keep resourcers high, then at fire rotation you will spam it.

- Use Spirit Guard and cube Nemesis, or the opposite. Spirit Guard is important but Nemesis is just a bonus. If you don't have Nemesis you can cube Leoric's Crown and use a topaz on your helm. You can also use Witching Hour as your belt and cube String of Ears.

- Flying Dragon / Furnace as your cubed weapon.

- Any amulet you want. It's simply not needed.

- Look for Life on Hit on your weapons. Remember you can't roll LoH if you have life on kill as a secundary stat. Area Damage is ur second priority there.

- Crit chance > crit damage. Get both when possible. Get %fire on bracers.

- The perfect amulet for endgame has %fire, crit chance and crit damage. With low paragon and no enchants Dex is still very valuable however, so two of the three priorities will already be pretty good!

Build Guide

LTK build for easy conquest. Group enemies, tank and spam LTK. Capable of doing it with pretty low paragon and no legendary gems/ancient gear.

Notes -

- As show in the end, I didn't have any legendary gems, and didn't even bother rolling better stats at the mystic. This is to show how ridiculous easy this build can finish the challenge.

- I forgot I had scarbringer in the cube and also was wearing it. This is what happens when you record just after waking up. Put Flying Dragon or Furnace in the cube.

- For the same reason I used Unity without having a copy on the follower. Meh.

- I used a vengeful wind because I had it with LoH, but it's not really needed. Put anything you like here, like crystal fist for more toughness or pig sticker for some damage bonuses. Again, this is the type of slot that is not really important for the build, and you can use it to fill a gap when you don't have all the proposed gear.
