good luck bro! it will come

reakor chest, gamble one with str vit + 3 sock, then roll elite damage reduction or fc damage

bracer, aim for element dmg, str, vit and crit chance

belt, roll armor to 15% life

rorg, try find one with str, socket+cdr (keep ias and roll off lph) at least ias help with faster ending animation of your charge

pant. try find one without resist as secondary, so you can roll str vit and all res

boot, same case as pant, try one without resist as secondary and roll str vit all res and armor

try to find 2x unity and enchanting favor for your templar, it basically 2x your survivability.

same haha , however no need to rush and get everything you want la hehe. long long way to go until patch 2.2 hit.

hi lace! it's very simple regarding charge reset, FC has 10 sec cooldown, so if you have:

38% CDR, you will gain 1 charge when you FC 3 mobs. 3 x 2 = 6 sec reduction (from rune), then 38% of 10 second is almost 4 sec, thus you can charge again. you don't need exactly 40% cdr due to latency and charge animation, so around 37.5% will do.

next will be 58% cdr, it's the same as above, but you regain 1 charge when you hit 2 mobs.

people saying why you need "Less" cdr now is because blizz make FC to have a maximum of 2 charges, instead of 1. so let say if you have 38% cdr, and you have 0 charge now. with the increase of density, you just need to hit 3 mobs to reset your FC, or 6 mobs to regain 2x charge. unlike patch 2.1.1 you need to charge carefully because no matter how many mobs, you only have 1 charge to use.

so if you have 58% cdr, you regain 2 full charge when you need 4 mobs, which is super easy due to density increase.

Next, fire charge build can only get you to around 44 grift (i am not grift kaki so that's estimation). anyway, if you want to go high grift level, physical charge is the way to go because it clears the mob so fast that you have plenty of time to kill RG, however with a few condition.

physical charge is better for clearing mobs because your battle rage - bloodshed is physical rune. so your physical element bonus is added to bloodshed, in short you have much higher aoe damage than fire.

with physical charge, you are very dependant on RNG.. especially on GRG, physical charge are fishing for guardian that spawns adds, or duplicate itself, like the rockman, so you can utilise your aoe to burst the boss down.

Fire can only go so far but is more reliable on lower 40+ (fire build is for more single target power). if you want to get as close to 50 as possible, then physical is the way to go.

edit: for t6 clears, use toxin, pain enhancer, trap, just charge charge charge and let your DOT do the damage.. physical build too, because PE is physical, toxin bonus damage is multiplicative, have fun!

ya cool down reduction

try not to ish.. get 38%. dont alang alang, hehe.

bro you have maximus and fire amulet, choose battering ram as your FC rune.

yup, fire bracer and no physical bonus.

current bug:

try "jamming" or utilise your Force Move button (pressing or jamming force move button and press FC), this will actually make FC with no ending animation. it means you can charge like a maniac. Not sure if this bug will be fixed sooner or later.

the disadvantage with jamming your key is that you can no longer precisely control your character charge, as you're always in a moving state. so i think manually pressing force move + FC will let you have a better control over your character.

this can help with faster clear so you have more time with GR. or speeeeeeeeed farm t6 like nobody else.

try F+R rings with reakors next patch... but yes overall they fixed bloodshed double dipping, but with F+R ring reakors will have more damage even after the fix. the problem is we lose unity for mitigation. we will see how it goes. i might go spin spin spin too, thats the barb iconic skill since d2.

spin spin spin sure can and i think it's the only way now. hota and ss are no no tho, since they last update the IK 6 bonus to 100% instead of 500%. Hopefully we can keep those fury up.

equip and test with d3progress, but generally i think an ok furnace will still be better than an ancient hs. anyway, it depends on the rolls too, so go with d3progress.

edit: when 2.2 hits, with bloodshed no longer double dip, HS will be pretty much useless. but i guess you wont charge anymore in 2.2.. so.. nvm.

what do you mean?

breakpoints are always based on attack speed, not cooldown. D3 still runs on the same engine, so the WW breakpoints are still the same, 2.5-2.86-3.33.. these old numbers are still functioning as they are for WW. Same for DD and COTA, just different numbers.
