Hey man. Great video. :-) Now the taeguk is getting a nerf. Will you be swapping it for aborter gem? And if yes, to what? Hope you still read on a old video :-)
+fifo1980 the primary source with the setup in the video is the follower with thunderfury. You also have the bane of the trapped aura and the fan of knives, however, in the text guide I mention switching the generator to entangling shot to help with this
Yo, got a question for you here. Hope you still read the comments on this video. It is my understanding that Hexing pants were always a horrible idea to use with nat's set because of how they work. Meaning that when you cast rain you actually stop to cast for a second. Which means you are actually doing less damage for your crashing rain. Now with the rotation being 2:1 wouldn't this be all the more important that you don't use hexing pants? Or has something changed?
+LiquidHate13 of course, I read the comments on all my videos :) About hexing, you misunderstand, the damage bonus lingers for about half a second, so you definitely keep the damage bonus, just look at the leaderboard from season 4, literally every top DH clear is using hexing pants... nothing changed you are just mistaken :P
Philosophios, I have some NOOB question: I find hard to use RoV without being in danger or stopping move to click the button (left-click of the mouse). Can you give me some hint about it? What do you use for activaction without clicking on monster (Shift + Left-click? Any other button + Left-click?) Thank you and I'm waiting for replies :)
+Philosophios Thank you, dude, that helped me a lot... BTW, even with that, requires a lot of skill (Which in D3 means notion of time-space + agility on ur fingers).
Just asking, is Entangling shot with the new Justice is Served rune better for its now equal hatred generation as Evasive fire Focus and bane of the trapped triggers from a distance or Evasive fire Focus still the best?
+Ethan Phua yea that's a good swap I mention it in the text guide. Also after the FoK nerf I have been using fulminator cubed and shock collar for more procs actually and the hatred wasn't really a problem. I think this is better, I might end up remaking this video, but the FoK version is still very viable and the fulminator version I have in the text guide, so idk if i will redo the whole thing or not
Is there any wiggle room for substitutions as far as like weapons go, like for instance if I didn't have a dawn could I use it in the cube and still use hexing pants of mr yan and convention in cube as well? Could I use a Fortress Ballista or Calamity?
unfortunately, no because you cannot dual wield a melee weapon on demon hunter so you cannot mix-match dagger+hand crossbow so the only alternatives would be to reduce your over all dmg output. Keep in mind that your main-hand weapon is the only one that RoV calculates dmg from so your offhand can suck and it won't be much of a problem (as long as it has 10CDR)
+jackhammerhead low attack speed and some resource reduction/hatred generation help a lot. Or you can consider using nightstalker passive over ambush or perfectionist.
+Ric Flair Use this as a base guide for all classes on rift progression. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sdWUjBqrnXc4nMTvc9G0onHCL1WY6XsF-avLsYOrmOM/htmlview?usp=sharing&sle=true
Help, i have the full build, half of the items are ancient, around paragon 500 but i keep dying a lot. Is there any strategy or stat priority to prevent this?
+Diogo Pacheco Smokescreen timing and the leech passive (LoH) should allow you to avoid damage and heal through the occasional hit. This build is quite inconsistent so you might just need more progression to have success at higher levels. Or just a better map/mob type. Map and mob type have a huge influence over this builds potential.
+willman3000 lower your attack speed and pickup some resource reduction/hatred generation. Or you can consider using nightstalker passive over ambush or perfectionist.
+Philosophios Hey Philos, I am asking to many questions sorry, what do you think about the next patch and about DH greater rift potential, is it equal to another classes like barb or monk because i have not seen build videos for them. Because now i think that monks and barbarians have way more potential than DH.
How the fk is your discipline up all the time. Like , don;t even say the passive. That only mitigates 10% resource cost not 60% or how ever much you're getting.
+Robert Fierce it's the passive xD no j/k but seriously, I'm not even full all the time. With the amount of mitigation and healing from the build you don't need to spam smokescreen, only use it when you really need it.
really good edited i like

Hey Phil, can i roll away the dmg of my offhand to some usefull stat, or is that rly needed?
I know that FoK is way better but have you ever tried Sword of the Ill will and then using shuriken cloud?
So after the taeguk change would you still use it or change it out for like an esoteric or something?
this build looks like 1000x more work than UE MS. Probably more rewarding though.

Hi, I dont find the correct rings and my main its Choose 1000Dex or 10CD, so i have a question
CD over Crits and Damage?
Is there any wiggle room for substitutions as far as like weapons go, like for instance if I didn't have a dawn could I use it in the cube and still use hexing pants of mr yan and convention in cube as well? Could I use a Fortress Ballista or Calamity?

Keep in mind that your main-hand weapon is the only one that RoV calculates dmg from so your offhand can suck and it won't be much of a problem (as long as it has 10CDR)
So if you get killed right after the cast of Vengeance then after reviving you have no 50% reduction for long time?
+ermakamre kinda yea, but it's only a 20 second cooldown, death animation will take like 3-5 seconds at least, so it's not that long :)
12% Movementspeed is much more useless than 15% Strafe dmg when u have enough mainstat.
+TheMIrrorYouDeserve you'd be surprised
+Philosophios Thx it helped me to get a Grift 55 done for the Season Journey.
How do you not run out of hatred ? If I keep channeling strafe like you do the meters goes down in a few seconds while yours stay up. Is this PTR ?
+jackhammerhead low attack speed and some resource reduction/hatred generation help a lot. Or you can consider using nightstalker passive over ambush or perfectionist.
Make your life easier and use Seethe Rune for Vengeance while getting your damage reduction from Aquila Cuirass or Visage of Gunes.
What is the best DH build that can go the highest Grifts in patch 2.4?
Thanks

damn. literally just got rid of my dawn

Help! my hatred always goes empty when using strafe
+SkidsOnTheFloor Having the exact same problem
+willman3000 lower your attack speed and pickup some resource reduction/hatred generation. Or you can consider using nightstalker passive over ambush or perfectionist.
multishot build is missing only
+Dragomir Nonov coming up next :)

+Dragomir Nonov blizzard seems to be tuning everyone around the low-mid 80's, not sure how successful they will be with the balance tho
Is this still viable? I'm sick of UE demon hunters everywhere. I don't wanna be one of them anymore. lol
