Yeah if we went grief pb/6x lemd' pb we would gain 25 gold (negligible), better kill speed however we lose 66 stat points into dex which cost us roughly 600 health with BO

But the kill speed + extra AR would be insane.

With my current build (far from this type of optimization) I can clear @ 38-45 secs.

I would imagine with one of these builds we could hit low 30's. but yeah these builds wouldn't really be useful for ladder vs your traditional merc setup just due to cost + the time inbetween games

Dont hate me too much, but I am going to to test rang belt for the cbf.

The EG loss is nerly non existant compared to rune master and 30 lower than with cham. In helm. But I have to admit I am not thinking in budget regions you guys are edit: yeah the fhr loss is there.

What a merc should be using

we still love you. no worries

Maybe with 3 Lo Runes =P

What a Fury Druid should be using u mean

This is a fine Trang Setup: https://d2.maxroll.gg/d2planner/2801061m#6
Just swap out all the MF runes/charms with GF, for instance.



Also worth nothing that Laying of Hands for DPS builds cuts down on the time substantially; unless you're already waiting on the timer each game, probably worth looking into over Chancies.

I haven't even considered laying of hands. That would be great instead of switching to goldwrap to hit last BP with ac1 merc I can use my ba axe and runemaster instead of PB.

Would sacrifice 40% mf 200% gold vs nice demon damage and Ias.

If you're using grief, LoH still provides noticeable dps increase, but imo not worth the huge 200gf loss. If using a budget setup like eth Oath, it's practically mandatory. Or if you happen to be optimizing for runes/mf.

To chime in on the more "lazy" and less micro builds - the zerker with grief/6x lem offhand is fine but positioning/survivability can still be an issue while playing on Switch. I use to run a WW build that was much smoother in that regard - just telestomp and don't really have to worry about getting mobbed. It's noticeably less gold though due to loss of 6xlems while dpsing.

Interesting; Laying of Hands was the difference for me between 1-2 tapping mobs or 2-3 tapping them, which was a huge boost in efficiency.
I might need to mess with WW more; curious how it goes.

Dual Grief I assume?
