Just an FYI, most of the Ancient drops are currently completely broken and the dev's have no clue why they are rolling without damage stats at all & even sometimes without the mainstat even. Wizard items and shields/offhands/sources/etc.... seem to be affected worse than others. As an added extra bonus, the new wardrobe is also vanishing legendary gems into thin air with no ability to get them back when swapping out saved builds, but on the upside, when it happens, it dupe's all your equipped regular gems and add's them to your loot.
It should be hard to believe that this is even a problem this close to when it's meant to come into effect for the new season, but this is Bliz dev's we are talking about here - and by that we mean the random contractors they brought in to slap this garbage together in a 4 day period because the actual dev's abandoned the game and left it in maintenance mode over a year ago.

Why are you bothering with this setup? Solo speed builds like the R6 Gen Monk already clear GR75 in 5min with no deaths, easy. Even on crappy rifts.

EU servers are notorious for terrible wait times & not being able to handle the player load at the start of the season. Doesn't seem to be an issue with the NA or Asian servers though.

The LON Bomb Crusader build is easily the best & fastest to farm paragon with solo, at higher GR levels.
I'm running GR75's at the moment with my character in 6-7mins. I still need the shoulders and chest (using ancient alternatives currently) and I need proper rolls on half my set pieces as well, still. I'm not even at Paragon 800 yet, either. You can farm XP even better in solo by just running the highest GR you can manage & clear out the white trash, then quit when the rift guardian appears. Seems a bit of a silly strategy, but in terms of XP an hour, nothing beats it when you start pushing past GR78, as the XP from killing anything at those levels is just massive. I'm at about 780 paragon and just clearing out white trash in a GR80 rift solo is giving me about 2 and a half paragon levels every 10min.

None of the competitive guys push until the final week of the season, outside of Alkiazer and Quin.

It's a limit of the game due to the limits of the old technology in the X1/PS4.

It's been said 1000 times over already, D3 is not a competitive game, it was never meant to be & it was never made to be. It's a game of chance, with layers upon layers of RNG dictating almost everything, requiring more and more time to marginally improve things. Leaderboards are completely meaningless & even if botting and exploiting didn't exist in the game, that would still be the case because everything is pure RNG mixed with how much of your life you are wasting on grinding. People in here get into debates that are amazing levels of autistic, completely missing the point that it's not a balanced or skill based game at all. You progress purely on the items that drop and their stats & that's it. The chance of that stuff dropping and rolling right is pure luck. The game is competitive in the same way as 10,000 people standing in a room and tossing a coin at the same time to see who is "best" at landing on one side.
It's all pointless anyway, considering that due to Calderon's, botters will just raise all Leg Gem's to 90+ and apply them via
Calderon's on their near-perfectly rolled set pieces, leading to them still dominating all and any leaderboards regardless of competitive paragon limiting.
There is and has only ever been 1 solution to botting, and that is for Bliz to implement a proper & regular detection/ban system. But they wont & never will, so the entire issue is completely and utterly pointless to waste your time being bothered about.

The peasantry in here is all sorts of awefull. Can we just close the thread already or redirect this to the console dumpster area.

So your "concept" is the standard Globes Support Crus we've all been playing for over a week already now?

People in seasonal right now are smashing out GR70 speed runs in <4min using either the Invokers Punish or LoN Bomb builds, and they haven't progressed passed Para 600 yet. The highest Invokers Punish builds in the leader boards are already at GR79 and none of those players have cracked P800 yet. Were only a week into the new season, too.
