Krysbin's Sentence

using 6 pc inaruis, trag'oul's corroded fang is recommended in cube for the full damage bonus (so is krysbin's), the rings and pendant are honestly interchangeable with anything my paragon is very low and i don't have the best items so I'm just using things to boost survivability. you could swap out for focus and restraint and rondal's locket (pickup radius). the same goes for belt, you can either use witching hour or dayntee's blessing depending on your squishyness. if you absolutely need the tankyness then you can opt out nems for apd.

Build Guide

as you can see with about 548 paragon, level 50 gems, and pretty bad gear this build flew through gr60, can probably efficiently do 70-75 with the right gear

the gameplay is extremely simple and easy to use:

you have to be sure to pick up stacks on bone armor when you first enter a rift, but after the first in-geom proc you can numlock or just spam it.

blood rush to elites and just scythe them to death. rinse and repeat.

skeletal mage to ensure your essence is never full.
