When should I use it? only on items that are BiS I guess, and not likely to be replaced? | ||

How does that work? seems to require a bunch of gems! :o When should I use it? only on items that are BiS I guess, and not likely to be replaced? It consumes a legendary gem to add main stat to an item. +5 per level of the legendary gem. The type of Flawless Royal gem used determines the stat (I believe) And yes it is only something you want to do on (nigh) perfect items. Its another infinity progression path alongside paragon levels. | ||

The "require gem lvl 30", does that mean that you need at least a level 30 gem, but you can put higher, and you'll get more stat? Also a bit disappointing that the two endless things stack in addition rather than multiplicatively.  | ||

Cold is slightly better against trash as you shoot one more rocket (buffed by ballistics) whereas physical hits slightly harder against single targets. | ||

I'm not really sure what to reroll on most of my items to get better. Right now I have trouble in grift 50-55 and was expecting to blaze 60 (at least) pretty easily once I got this setup going. Quick tips? http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Mistakes-1763/hero/72426374 You can use my char as a reference, the build is pretty much done: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Glacier-1662/hero/66487203 I cleared GR 72 easily with the above, currently using this setup for speedfarming/higher GR: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Glacier-1662/hero/70965851 | ||

But the game made it up to me by upgrading a rare dagger into a 3k dps ancient dagger of darts. I'm playing Jade though so I'm not sure if this is a gift-worthy piece or not (rolled, damage rng, damage %, near-max int and socket). It's tempting though since I have two gifts atm. Also, it dropped an ancient Ring of Emptiness (so-so rolls, int/vit/cc/socket) for the last off-set piece I needed. | ||

I changed some items around and cleared GRift 68 last night using Invoker Punish. Seemed slower than my wiz, but strong still. Doesn't look like it updated but the only difference right now is that I'm using Heart of Iron with cubed Aquila because I can't find a decent Aquila. Lol. So you only use this build for farming? I tried it once (basically copying top leaderboards) and struggled through 45. | ||

I tried it once (basically copying top leaderboards) and struggled through 45. I cleared GR75 with this build (with different shoulder/gloves, ideally with a doombringer). Even though my gear is far from perfect yet, it's definitely stronger than perfectly rolled invokers. This is how it plays: Every 16 seconds, convention of elements switches to physical, right before this window you cast iron skin, followed by bombardment. For the rest of the time you just run around and avoid getting hit. To sync up the cooldown perfectly with CoE, you will need about 62-64% CDR. Do not attempt this build until almost all of your pieces are ancient. For speedrifts, given ~65% CDR and swiftmount, I have permanent steed charge with spiked barding. I just run through the mobs and they will die from the steed dmg. I also 1 shot any rift guardian with bombardment, can easily finish a normal rift under 3 min. | ||

Well that bit of info on how to play it will help a lot, but it also sounds like I need to go farm for better gear for that set. The pieces I have for it right now are super basic -- more so than my Invoker set. Haha. | ||

The pieces I have for it right now are super basic -- more so than my Invoker set. Haha. The playstyle for LoN is completely different than invokers. With invokers you are constantly hitting/tanking hits, the LoN build relies heavily on timed combos and dodging attacks. Even though I'm using one, the akarat awakening shield isn't very good for LoN as you generally don't want to be hit by mobs. A better choice is either final witness (swap out consecration for shield glare) or lidless with 20% physical dmg. Coven's Criterion from bounties is also very nice, but I have yet to find an ancient one. Check here for what you need to prioritize for LoN: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/games/133202-diablo-iii-general-discussion?page=1045#20892 | ||

Atm im paragon 700, playing with full ancient impale set mostly, but I find that it gets really hard above lvl 70, because the trash mobs hurt a lot. The general strat everyone uses 70+ is to skip most trash to find elites, but once we find them, theres always a bunch of trash surrounding the elites, usually pulled in by a tank. This means Impale can't hit the elites most of the time, unless i manage to stand on top of the elite (rarely possible), and then the AOE kills me eventually. I've tried all the sets so far, got almost full ancient of all of them, and it seems that in lvl 65ish grifts its Impale > marauder > the multishot set > natalyas, but the 73-75 grifts I've done, the only way Ive found has been with marauder, because 5 sentries can give range and defense). | ||

That could be a way to get rid of trashmob (or at least enough to impale the elites) They nerfed greenstone to 100% from 300%, so its not enough damage to kill trash, and would only proc every 30s. If not skipping trash, chakram is probably better, that kills trash pretty quick, and elites at the same time. But overall slower on elites alone, and slow on boss. =\ Edit: Talking about group grifts, if it wasnt clear.  | ||

Its stupid if the only way to do high grifts is 3 supports spamming globes + one DPS wiz with reapers wraps. I understand it for pushing the boundaries of GR95+ etc on leaderboards, but I'm hoping at least GR80 is possible with an actual build. | ||
