Any suggestions on how to take this chap further? Can cut through T1-2 very quickly, T3 is fairly comfortable as well but it takes a little longer than I would like (about 20-25 minutes per rift). I really want a Thundergod's vigor to replace my current belt and a Shard of Hate to swap into my off hand for when I've got bosses/guardians infront of me instead of trash mobs and elites/champions. Outside of that, any other ideas?

Sheet Stats:

830k Damage
7.5 Million Toughness
11k Healing

I would say it's mainly worthwhile when you approach getting 4 pc Vyrs set bonus, until then it won't help too much, so it's not really that key right now.

Your gear is coming along nicely from only a few days ago. Your wep/boots/offhand are all good. RRoG is fine I wouldn't spend time farming for that again, just do Act 1 bounties if you need rift shards and if you are lucky you may get another.

For upgrades keep focusing on getting another pair of Magefists from Kadala, in addition you can drop Vyrs gloves there too which is a bonus to go for :)

After Magefists, imo you need some new legs so gamble for those afterwards.

Keep hoping for amulet drop to give you an upgrade too though I know how hard it can be to get the right one (Act 1 bounties can also drop Leoric Amulet which can roll well).

Understood. Cheers!

Looking for some advice on Paragon now. Following this guide (where I took the build from) it suggests this:

Core: Movement Speed to 25% > Intelligence
Offense: Cooldown Reduction > Critical Hit Damage > Critical Hit Chance > Attack Speed
Defense: Resist All > Armor > Life > Life Regeneration
Utility: Area Damage > Life on Hit > Gold Find > Resource Cost Reduction

Does this mean I should start by maxing all of the first ones (Speed, CDR, All res, Area damage) and then move on to the next ones, or should I be balancing the points?

Cheers
 
You only need CDR if you actually use skills that really need it, for my witch doctor I maxed CHD first as it helps pets a lot. I maxed Life on Hit 1st as well over Area damage, the rest I sort of agree with.

Wow, Smudge said he was power leveling your crusader the other day, can't have been more than a week ago now, how on earth have you put in so much time already?

I might have times wrong, had a guess at the hours, will have a look!

Edit: I was a little out :p 50 hours not 70 :) I finish work at 2 PM ish, generally play until bed time. Which is even more depressing than a 50 hour Crusader can do T5 and a 700-750 Monk can't :/

Archon could really be helped by CDR I think. But I also think I need the crit % more.

I concur with Si though you have been been very lucky indeed in that time, took me ages to get 6 piece Akkhans (though granted a lot of it was before the drop buff rate).

I need a better chestpiece/pair of legs as I am missing all res on both slots, 200~ all res there would let me regem 3 gem slots for str only which will def help.

In addition I am just farming other gear for other specs, they will nerf firestarter proc, it's a question of when not if for me, I will keep on running it until they do though :)
 
Really starting to annoy me now with Kadala, I must have spent over 30k shards on gloves trying to get T&T, it starts to become tedious relying on specific items to progress. Seems nearly every other pet WD I meet in public games has them as well.
 
Just got a piece of Vyr's.

I feel like they could be so much better though? Not worth it until I get another piece?

I've seen better.
Maybe you could find a use for that.

I've been trying to get better magefists.... All's I keep getting is gladiator gauntlets!

Just got another magefists, useless though! No crit % or crit hit % :(

Keep them for set bonus only if you get enough pieces, agreed the stats aren't that great on those. Your Skelon's Legs look very good though :)

I Feel your pain, I sunk over 20K shards into them on my WD and nothing. Got about 5-6 Frostburns in the same time though (about as rare apparently).

I literally gave up in the end, will go back to my WD one day :)

A pair dropped for my Crusader though, really sucky stats and rolled with Dex. yay! :(

Yeah seems to be the way, I have only ever had good luck with Kadala once, every other time it's just turned into a "how many shards can you spend on me before you get what you want? If at all..." affair.

The only time she treated me well was when I randomly spent 500 shards on 2h Weps and got a Fate of the Fell.

Im in a similar situation as you bud.

The one thing i keep on thinking is why bother with a mirror ball if i am looking to max CDR and go perma Archon? You won't be taking full advantage of the missles.

Personally I've not started looking at CDR but i do have 3 piece Vyr's. Gonna make Aughilds and take it from there. Archon is a nice change from MM and Meteor but again if i rock the CDR i think Blackhole & Meteor would probably work better than Archon and you still get the full effect of +2 missles
 
Got these magefists as a drop:

Better fire damage, crit chance as default but not vitality. What should I do? Look at that toughness loss! :(

Should I still keep sharding for the trifecta and forget these ones?
