Probably just get used to the play style and work on clearing more efficiently. My gear hasn't changed significantly since the patch and my first run ended on 38, whereas last night I did a 43. Have a profile link?
Yeah probably your biggest gate right now is lacking the unity combo. It doesn't really matter what stats are on it because the toughness gain is so immense.http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/lunarknite-1433/hero/2629995
I usually use Serenity and a defensive passive instead of Dashing Strike and Fleet Footed for GRs. I could definitely use a better amulet and ring, but it's the best I have since it does give me CHD and Vit.
And yeah, I'm not really used to dragging Elites so I do have to work on that so EP is doing something. Thanks for the responses.

Edit: I would also use DS over serenity since dashing out of bad situations is nearly as good as immunity and you get the added benefit of being to do it once per four seconds
Just need to find one more Unity then and give the STR one I found to my Templar. Which DS rune is best? Quicksilver for the extra charge, or the one with dodge chance?
That's just seasons, Syntek is up to 45 or 46 non-season, something crazy.
Yes I know what the leaf means.
Ive thought of that as well as M6 but it doesnt shoot automatically anymore, am I correct? Not sure I would enjoy a dot build.Wizard. Cast Apocalypse and Hydra. Wait for FB dot. Move on to next stack.
So how's EU doing?
I rolled 5 ancient augild chest and none of them have base stat, wtf and now i have run out of reusable parts because fuck bliz. 25 per roll.
You got the basic idea. I will add a few more things.I'm new to DH and trying to play a M6 Frost build. I can't seem to keep enough hatred to really be functional. Can anyone critique my build:

From some research it seems:
- Switch to fire
- Switch to 2hand
- IAS is out, Reduced resource cost is in
Thanks

As far as Hatred regen goes, there are three approaches:
1. Run a traditional generator, typically evasive fire with the +7 hatred rune.
2. Stack cooldown, and rely on Prep, Wolf, and/or Seethe to regen when there are no globes around.
3. Run EA + Krieder
Any of the above is better than Chakram+Spine. Chakram simply does not deal enough damage to warrant the loss of Rucksack, not to mention the slower regen. Krieder+EA regen is also slow, but EA isn't as terrible as Chakram.
DHs have been at 38 for months.
The problem with EU clan is that we only have 5 seasonal players that take the game seriously and four of those have been gone for months.

I could definitely go higher on season's DH GR but I'm keeping the ranking low to encourage more competition. It sucks that NeoGAF clan isn't more competitive but I wouldn't want to join a more hardcore clan since there's no way I have enough time to play *only* D3.
I think most could care less for the competitiveness of GR when it's pylons and rng is what mattered most. Trying to get a lucky good GR is painfully boring.

I'm salty. I got a Furnace 2 days ago and my first Wand of Woh today. And I suddenly don't feel like it matters because they're not Ancient. Spent a fair amount of time over 8 months trying to get those kinds of items and i feel like I'm getting them when they're not even relevant. Seems to be a pattern, as I got my first Kridershot 2 weeks before RoS and haven't gotten another since.
Help me feel better, GAF.
For the new Marauder 6 piece bonus, do you still get the % damage increase if the sentries are off screen?
The drop rate of these rings have become ridiculous right. Just the last two days.
and I gave couple of Unity to just random people in public lobby.

That's just you. The only thing I need for my Crusader is a SoJ with physical or holy damage. The only one I've found in the last 200 paragon levels was an intelligence one on my crusader, and have dumped 90% of my shards into rings as well.
Ah damn, thought for sure they bumped the drop rate of the rings. Haven't found any that are particularly wow, but they have been dropping. Through Kadala and end of grifts.That's just you.

Woo, just did a 37 at 10:51. Making my way up.

Are you in the GAF clan? Or are you EU?
T6 is a complete joke, but I'm pretty sure I could crack the crusader top 100 overall leaderboard if I had a SoJ with an element, instead of the one I use that doesn't even have an element.Well for DH at least it turns out that SoJ isn't needed at all compared to a Unity at least for solo high GRs. The bigger issue at higher GRs is defenses and you should be able to compensate for the lack of damage with ancient weapons. For T6 your damage output should be high enough that an SoJ is irrelevant.
Ah, too bad.EU unfortunately. Made that wrong decision when I returned to the game last year.
I doubt that you can without a Unity, the damage at high GRs is ridiculous. Then again I don't know how tough Crusaders are at high ends.T6 is a complete joke, but I'm pretty sure I could crack the crusader top 100 overall leaderboard if I had a SoJ with an element, instead of the one I use that doesn't even have an element.

With my barbarian I'm mostly running into single target DPS problems when using the raekor build.
I'm absolutely blasting through GR 34/35 until the boss appears at that point it takes me about 5 minutes to down.
Having a unity will allow me to ditch some survivability and go for more raw DPS.
As long as the game only tracks your best clear, fishing for a good rift will remain part of the metagame. If the game had tracked the average of all attempts, that would be a more useful measure.
The RNG factor has been reduced substantially in 2.1.2, and I think we can generally expect a spread of around 2-3 tiers for two identical setups, the outliers being those extreme "1%" rift fishing. With that in mind, I do feel that GR is a now a reasonable platform for evaluating different builds (wrt to their solo capability; team play is an entirely different beast).
