Hey guys, today I dust off my Witch Doctor after nearly half a year of letting him rot and pick up the solo greater rift progression series with the next tier - G35. My gear is completely outdated and I'm doing a few runs with an 'old school' pet build revolving around Bane of the Trapped + Hwoj Wrap and Tall Man's Finger. Soon enough I'll be switching to either Carnevil or Jade (or both), but for now I'm having some nostalgic fun. Enjoy, discuss, and check back for tier by tier until I hit 50 and beyond!
Hey guys, today I move on to G36 with the 'old school' pet build. Better density so clear time is faster than the previous tier and the rift guardian just melts. I'll be switching to a more standard Carnevil build soon, but want to push this a bit more in the meantime. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!
I miss the TMF, and they even gave us a new one, SMF (Small Mans Finger).
Sadly, neither of those are worth using at this moment.
Yup, it's a shame when CoE (or even SoJ) buffs Fetish/dart damage way more than having a big dog and using multiple passives just to boost it. It was fun for a while though!
Hey guys, today I move on to G37 with the 'old school' pet build. Another easy rift although I forgot to switch belts before starting (used Haunting Girdle instead of Hwoj Wrap, but it still worked out). Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!
I topped out at gr40 (before ancient gear existed) but kind of lost interest (was ranked low 200s at the time) with a fairly standard jade build w/ furnace. Have fun

Thanks, I've actually switched to a variation of Carnevil in some of the upcoming clears. I still have terrible gear so it'll be a while before I hit mid 40s-50, but so far smooth sailing. Would be nice to put together a 42 speed farm Jade build eventually though.
Hey guys, today I move on to G38 using a variation of the Carnevil build. This is my first time trying it out and I'm sure the skills and gem choices aren't the most optimal, but that's part of the progression. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!
And some guy just did 61 today with a WD. I did 40 today with a "variation" of Carnevil because I dont have the Dagger and I am sure most of us are stuck at 40-44 without DOD. What's to discuss
It's a progression series. The progression is up for discussion.
Hey guys, today I move on to G39 using a variation of the Carnevil build. I switched out a couple skills/passives and a couple gear swaps/rerolls. So far so good, I'm loving the single target on the rift guardian - a very welcome change from terrible stdps classes (cough Barb). Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!
Hey guys, today I move on to G40 using a variation of the Carnevil build. Build and gear remain unchanged from the previous tier with the exception of a single item roll. Density this time was more favorable (narrow hallways with high hitpoint/high xp mobs) and of course the rift guardian is easy regardless. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!
Hey guys, today I move on to G41 using a variation of the Carnevil build. The main change from the last tier is dropping Bane of the Powerful for Trapped. I'm still trying out various skill/rune/passive combinations and will continue to experiment as I progress up the tiers. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!
Hey guys, today I clear G42 using a variation of the Carnevil build. Nothing has changed from the last tier, but I got some good density (even without pylons) so it was pretty straightforward. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!
Hey guys, today I clear G43 with Carnevil. Nothing has changed from the last tier. Good rift map and mob type, so no complaints there. Single target damage is insane as usual. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!
Al's dead on about allowing your fetishes to move up . Hesitate occasionally when attacking and let them advance, makes a huge difference.
I am without ANY DoD so far so I'm playing a straight pet build/mask of jeram. It's quite interesting to see your advancement with the DoD and lesser damage compared to my ancient weapon/off hand. I'm at 43 right now and pushing 44 and the DoD makes it look pretty easy. http://www.diabloprogress.com/hero/finiar-1655/Shakalaka/42225507
Also, not sure of your gear, but a Belt of Transcendence would free up a passive by dropping fetish sycophants, works better than the passive.
Proc coefficient for Belt of Transcendence is irrelevant. It's spawn on hit.(?)
Damage is damage, I get that, but there are passives that contribute large damage too. I enter a GRift and I have a full boat within a few feet. It's really fast, which is great when you get ambushed at the door.

Good progression series, not every level is faceroll and seeing your gear improve for each tier is also a bonus.

Is it just me, or were you really tired during the G40?
I'm tired a lot with my 1 year old - gotta get it in when I can.
