I would like to share a build that I spent less then 1m on and finished inferno a4 (completely solo).
For those of you who don't believe this is the best combination of skills, that is ok because playing styles vary so in the end its about whats right for you.

Stats (Atleast)
30k dps before buffs
400 res all (i finished with 600, and am now at 800 but lower is fine as playing style determines this)
3k armor
10k health globes
30k life
1 piece of mana regen (wep/helm/offhand) - This is very usefull in spamming bears but is not necesary

Skills



Gear (The red is a must, others are extras and help a lot)
As a note im leaving all gold and magic find out because this is a preference, so add it as you like.

Helm
70+ INT
50+ VIT

3%+ CRIT
All res

Armor
70+ INT
70+ VIT
All res

Single res
2+ Sockets

Shoulders
70+ INT
70+ VIT
Health globe 10k+
All res
Single res

Belt
70+ INT
70+ VIT
All res

Single res

Pants
70+ INT
70+ VIT
All res

Single res
1+ Sockets

Boots
90+ INT
70+ VIT
All res

Single res

Gloves
90+ INT
6+ Speed
7+ Critical % Chance
30+ Critical % Damage
All res

Wep
There are many options here.
The best bang for your buck will probably be a 900+ damage WD specific dagger with + mana regen and or mana
Go for as much base damage as you can then secondly add crit % damage 50+, and third add int.
Howerver I completed a4 with a 1000 dps dagger with 10 mana regen

Off hand
70+ - 250+ Damage mojo
100+ INT
50+ VIT

Life %
Mana regen
Mana

Rings
You can go with either a defensive combo or offensive combo. I used one of each.

1- Int/vit/res/armor/soc
or
2- Int/crit %/crit % dmg

Work with what you see in ah, because rings can get expensive.

Amulet
Same goes for amulet. You can use a offensive one or defensive one.
I happen to come across a good deal on a defensive one so i used it.

1- int/vit/res/armor/soc
or
2- Int/ crit% /crit % dmg

Playing style
-------------
This is a very defensive build but doesn't sacrifice much or any offensive capabilities either. The main way to survive is by letting your dogs and garg take the dmg from monsters in front of you.
Your enchantress should usually stay behind you, keeping her alive. If your pets start dieing you get 1 resummon ever 45 seconds on dogs and 1 every 60 on garg. So if your in a nitch and use both your current pets and the resummon and still fail to kill the elites/boss, use spirit walk to run away until the the

cooldown is over. This however rarley happens if you do atleast 30k dps before buffs, because the pets take a large amount of damage before dying.

Using both globes in this build and sould harvest are a MUST. Any time you see a health globe, either get it or wait till life drops and grab. Every globe should give upwards of 5k dmg per depending on your current int. This number only increases as you add dps to your build. Try to always keep atleast a 3 stack

of harvest, but usually keep a 5 stack because its not that hard to do so using spirit walk into a mob patch, using harvest, and running back out.

Bears are your main source of damage to packs of mobs, and darts will be a very acruate way of executing attacks to ranged and more dangerous monsters that you cant get close enough to to use bears.

Here is a short video of examples on playing style with this build.
In this video I will be using 2 pieces I self found however (1 - skorn , 2 - armor)

Switch Spiritual Attunement for Blood Ritual, it is far more beneficial.

I assure you its extremely simple still with a 1h/mojo at 35k dps no buffs. Any wd would tell you the same :D

I can show a video if its really needed, but it shouldn't be.

It's actually quiet obvious. The pets take the damage while you throw bears/darts and everything drops. Not much too it.

Hopefully this guide helps some people.

It creeps me out I use the exact same the build with the same runes already. I have a little more budget than 1M, about 20 now so if I just add more base stats than by example 70, I should be okay.
Or do you have any Legendary/specifics to advise me ?

the 2.7 million igg gem is selffound also?


i also noticed that your crit chance is 24%
and you not use any good bleed proccing skills!
so better sell it, and shop a low priced weapon, fits better to the guild tital

No real set/unique advice because none were needed to get the job done.

But for mfing just add mf to the gear and this will put you at 20m for it all if its a bit higher quality with 15+mf per piece.

that way you will have a solid % to make some gold with. :P

best option to add at this point.

and also throw 12% speed on boots
