GR34 Seasonal down, with about 10 seconds left on the clock. I reckon it's about as far as I can go with my current paragon/gear, GR35 may be possible on a really good day but need some major luck on the density and mobs etc to do that I reckon atm.
 
I got the last bit of firebird on my 2nd wizard yesterday and it became my main wizard shortly after! Its just insane how it can farm, the only issue I have is if the mobs look at me funny ill just go splat in gr22+ but im more than happy just firing off dps at mobs and forgetting until theyre all dead. Ive tried levelling up my gem but hit the wall at this stage as im only able to get circa 15/30% chance to ding it, sometimes even less :(

Nicely done, congrats :) still ages on the season so still time to get higher! Think you'll need double Unity to get any further?

Having so much trouble getting anywhere above GR30 at the moment, purely due to Electrified. It just does so much damage, 450k - 0 health in about a second sometimes with 28 million toughness and 27k healing. I just can't seem to do anything about it.
 
Thanks!

I reckon on a really good day GR35 is within my grasp currently. Just looted a fire SOJ (boooo) need holy on it really, even rerolled I need a socket and the extra stat is +armor.

Double Unity would probably see me a GR level or two above where I am now survivability wise, but would stretch my DPS to the limit I think as after a while it becomes more about how quick you can kill stuff as the health creeps up.
 
Thanks Brok for the tips. Can start to see why you guys like the dh so much. It starting to wear on me :D

Meant to sleep aged ago but couldn't stop playing.

Nice post earlier hippo, you just made me want to build a crusader later too. Now I will not sleep at all lol
 
The Greater Rifts set in the HellRift seem to have mob spawn points right at the entrance, which often means the first 5-10mins are spent burning your resource with your most-damaging attacks, before dying and redoing it over and over. Sad times.

I've been trying to find a decent Magefist to no avail - had 2 drop finally - but one had no CC or CD ! and the other had only 26% CD :(

Your Wiz is really good man. Not MUCH to change or get really for mega firey fire build.

Get a Unity ring to replace the yellow you have. PRefer get a socket in that for a leg gem.

Consider Tal Rasha amu and belt, with RoRG you have a 3 set bonus there waiting including 5% fire dmg on the 2 set of that. Socket in Tal Rash amu also for leg gem.

I'd go 23% life amu in your helm.

Your RoRG as an absolute belter by the way! Jammy bugger, it's almost perfection.

Blizzard with apocolypse rune is better than energy twister.

Mirror Image with duplicate rune instead of slow time. Your 4 mirror images spam mobs with black holes which proc your strongmans and you'll also see 3/4 hydra's now and again!

Elemental Exposure, drop that. You are only dishing out big fire damage so that's not worth it. Use the fire skill one. Conflagration gives good fire boost and also consider taking unstable anomoly this gives you a life line in higher level grift which you will need along with your revive from 6 set FB bonus. 2 free deaths haha.

Your Wiz is T6/Grift 28 solo level ALMOST I would say.

Serpent Sparker much better than mine, a shame that didn't roll fire dmg but still it is nice.

That's a level 35 group we were in tonight dude. Just need the right mobs and the right map.

Not that disaster of a grift we were dealt with at 33!
 
Meh, missed GR33 seasonal by about 15 seconds. Had a horrible map and I died once towards the end of it so had a massive run back to point I died at. Must have cost me a good 2 minutes. Ghom boss at the end who's poison damage on GR33 seems ludicrous. Still do-able, just need a better map. I really need a Flying Dragon too.

Is there an ocuk guild? Expected a bunch of info in the first post but nothing there :(

Aye, there is definitely a guild but I think they might be full. There was mention of a purge a few pages back this weekend I think.

I haven't run loads of GRs yet, but I've had more than my fair share of ridiculously circuitous maps that are filled with dead ends. Maps that are so incredibly full of dead ends that it makes a mockery of any testing they might have done to check for such obvious problems.

On the other hand a blue post has suggested that they are comfortable with a degree of randomness. This came up when someone complained about seeing corrupt angels.
 
I had a shocking GR the other day

about 80% of the whole GR was on one level, and was no joke one straight line with large gaps between elites

was ridiculous

This is all good advice, id think about using a hydra with the weapon that gives two hydras at once. Also deffo use blizzard/apoc as its a joke with firebirds. You just drop it on mibs and kite them to death, its totally changed my playstyle lol

I don't mind randomness, but dead ends are awful. The sewers from Act 2 are really bad for this. Also, really hate corrupted angels, although I think everyone does :p I'm surprised they haven't changed them by now to be less of a headache and just be challenging instead.
