Diablo 3 2.1.2 Speedrun (Season1/Season2)

Hello guys,

I'm back and on fire this time! I'll be talking about the super speed run everybody is doing around Greater Rift this time. It's the end of S1 and people are running out of fuel for pushing greater rift. You may have seen Gabynator running this for a week or 2. It has allowed him to reach paragon 1200 + post S1.

To kill time until Season 2(February 13th, 2015), people are running Grift for a maximum of experience gain. The general idea is that greater rift reward more experience than normal rift for the same period of time and effort.

The sweet spot for high end player is around 35-38 and less geared players 32-35. You can finish your Grift runs with an avg. Between 3 and 4 mins.

The best team is:
·                     The barbarian uses: Hearth slaughterChilanik's chain, Strongarm bracers or Ancient parthan defenders. He uses for active skills: War cry, Sprint - Forced March, Call of the ancient - The council rises, Wrath of the berseker - Insanity, Frenzy - Vanguard, Ignore pain - the rune choice is really up to you or Battle rage- Marauder's rage and Furious charge - Stamina . Passives: Ruthless, Superstition, Boon of Bul-kathos, Brawler/Bloodthirst.
·                     The monk uses the fist of Az, Gundo gear. The active skills are: Crippling wave - Breaking wave, Cyclone Strike - Implosion, Inner Sanctuary - Forbidden place, Serenity - Ascension, Mantra of conviction - Overawe, Ephipany - Desert Shroud. Passives; Near death experience, Bacon of Ytar, Harmony, Sixth sense.
·                     Demon hunter #1: no particular gear. Active skills: Sentry - Polar station, Cluster arrow - Loaded for bear, Evasive fire - Focus, Companion - Wolf companion, Vault - Tumble and Preparation - Punishement. The passives are:  Cull the weak, Custom engineering, Aweraness and steady aim.
·                     Demon hunter #2 uses no particular gear: only a good crossbow is required. Skills are the same as DH #1. Maybe could use Sentry - Spitfire turret and Ballistic instead of Ambush.

This build and group is just a suggestion of my own and reflect what I've learn and what worked out best for us. In order to prove my point, within 10 days, I went from paragon 340 to 622. Hope this will help you level up. Remember Greater rift experience > T6 rift experience.
