Cool guide. I also love WD and have been farming great with him. Is my WD fine for your build? http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Mastiff-1986/hero/16896778

The 88k dps is with PtV so it's misleading. Without PtV it is 74k. Looking forward to trying your build tonight!

It doesn't work nearly as efficient on mp5 though.

I've tested the xp/hour and drops/hour and anything above 2 was losing in both categories unfortunately.

I would need upward of 250k unbuffed dps to do mp4-5 at these speeds maybe even more.



Everything you have is spot on. I'd say try to raise your dps slightly but you should do fine.

#1 thing you need to invest in is 12 more ms.

The best mp there is, all will know this soon enough.




Loh is very bad with bears, so anything other than that helps vs reflect and such.

Spiders seem to do a good amount of heal with loh, but if your dying a lot try possible using spirit vessel + zombie life link dogs.

So i tried mass confusion, and it doesnt work well because most of the elites i fight are near whites so they go running for them.

Tried spirit barrage with hover rune as well and it has a studder in it when you recast, so it slows me down.


Still trying some other things to see if there is any options to speed things up even more

Also, I would strongly suggest using soj. 30% damage to elites >> amazing trifecta rere/set. Ofc if you need hellfire for exp and zuni for set, not much you can do.
But lot of people are being "dps whores" caring about diabloprogress dps rank, while soj would make their life much easier, unfortunately not affecting dps stats. You need that extra damage only vs elites, and you get ton more from soj than from even really good rare.

this is best imo at low mp
at higher mp i prefer zd spammer

I have around the same stats as you, but double your HP.

I replace Acid Cloud because I would never use it, useless for me. I use Zombie Dogs Burning Dogs instead just to add a little more DPS that I need not bother with except to summon at the beginning of each run. Other than that, you should be using Vengeful Soul rune on Soul Harvest and Humongoid rune on Gary. Also, from your video, you're not using Stalker and Jaunt enough, you should basically be using them on cooldown, even midfight. It will speed up your run by a ton if you're using them correctly.

nice wd, deffinetly on the right track on how to make a good wd. I allways said barb #1 / dh #2 / wd #3 for speed farming.. dont u ever got mana problems?

My first char was a wd, i made him with tons of mf and ~same build basics but no legendary and set items.. went for dh instead in 1.0.4 : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDydHfshDQI&feature=youtu.be

Now I play only hc and the occasional uber run with friends.

Gz again, well made!!
