How much should having a dex and a strength Furnace factor into choosing my main class for non-season, softcore, greater rifts?
I'd prefer to play a Wizard, but would be willing to do Barb or Monk. I play about an hour total a day. Should I let the fact that I have this item steer me from playing a wiz, taking limited play time into account?
I think you'll enjoy the game most by playing the class you want to play & how you want to play it. Unfortunately the game punishes you for this.
Personally just play the Wizard. Since you have limited time to play this game it's not going to negatively effect you regardless of what class you play.
Furnance is not the best item for barb and monk at the moment and in fact since I hate using Furnance so no.
The correct answer should be, you should enjoy which ever character when ever. However, with Diablo 3 relying so much on luck to run the entire game (luck on items, luck on monsters in GR) I suggest you start playing Barb or monk when you either pick up ancient Bulkathos dual blade set, ancient IK weapon, ancient Torch of grand temple, or ancient flying dragon.
Why? because just until 2 days ago I was playing barb 4 and up to 8 hours a day (for 20 days straight) looking for the ancient Bulkathos set. Never got one and now I am sick and tired of playing barb and Diablo 3 entirely.
