Here you go. It's in an earlier post of mine. That page also links you to the one you just linked, so perhaps the d3profile one is better?

What's the highest GR you guys have accomplished thus far? I did a 35 this weekend, and I am sure I can do a 36 if I have some luck on the types of mobs that spawn. I can qualify for a 37, but that's a bit tough if I get too many Jailer type elites/heroes, or anything that can constantly leap or teleport to me and smack me.

Season DH: Shadowkill

Sheesh - forgotten how effective a group of Marauders can be - ddrd, Von and myself melted through T6 last night (and I haven't optimised my build yet)

When you don't actually have to stand in the poison/laser/lightning/fire, etc it makes a huge difference.

Need to roll a socket onto at least one piece of jewellery - bit low on ChC/ChD though.

Need to:

Bracer: Vit off ---> ChC / ChD
RRoG: Vit off ---> ChC / ChD / Socket
Amulet: Area Damage off ---> ChD / Socket
Helm: Vit off ---> ChC [put Amethyst in Socket to compensate for lost Vit]


Not sure what to roll on these:

Shoulders - what to roll - Vit or Life for All Resist or just leave
Gloves - rolled with great ChD / ChC - leave as is or roll the Vit?
SoJ - rolled ChC - if I get enough somewhere else, can roll a socket later
Boots - Armor for Vit ? or just leave for the time being
Bombadier - ?
Chest - can't remember if I had to roll those sockets - if not, then I'll replace the FanOfKnives bonus with Cluster/Sentry/Multi

Since the Ammy has a nice 17% cold damage boost, will be changing Runes to cold ones.

Fun times

Given the 17%

I agree that your first order of business would be to get a TNT. I found the loot tables for 2.1, and TNT has a 2.13% chance to be chosen, if you get legendary gloves (Frostburn has the same chance). Apparently Kadala has a 10% chance to give a legendary now (previously was around 1.5%), which means each time you right click for a pair of gloves, there's a 0.213% chance it's TNT. That's pretty substantial IMO when compared to previous. You WILL get it eventually, just keep at it. I spent probably 10,000+ shards before I got mine, and I nearly fell off my chair when it happened! So much joy!

Secondly, adding +Sentry damage to chest/shoulders/quiver is your next priority, and will keep you busy for a bit. I finally have it on shoulders and chest, and I am now struggling with the quiver. Obviously you need a Bombadier with at least 4 of the following 5 stats: Dex, Vit, IAS (19 or 20% pref), CHC and +Sentry damage. Bombadier has a 5.88% chance to be picked if you get a legendary Quiver drop. Thus, you have a 0.6% chance to get one when you gamble one.

Lastly, I would pick CHC and CHD over some elemental damage on my amulet, as it buffs all your damage and not only frost. Socket is non-negotiable. All jewellery must have sockets.

Thanks, but now I'm too lazy to type it all in again :p Will do so later during the day.

I've managed G31 on seasons, think with 4 or 5 minutes remaining... something like that

That's a big one which I'm trying to work on, but I've totally run out of crystals now, whereas I still have probably 2500+ arcane junk.

I can do about a 29 now and although I have most of the items (minus a few like Krider/2nd Unity/Hellfire/Belt) they're all mostly badly rolled. My toughness is also a bit low, so around 29 I get steamrolled a lot - I had to add on some +Life just so I wouldn't be dying constantly.

Ta.

Managed to get sockets on all jewellery now and Sentry on Shoulders.

Still a long way to go before I'm able to do really high GRifts - T6 is comfy (even with the Nagelring rather than the SoJ).

Busy levelling my gems - GR24 fine at the moment.

Forget about T&T, I needs me a decent weapon

Why are you running pain enhancer??

It just happens to be the one in the Nagelring which I was using on my Monk - I should swap it out for Powerful - [edit logged on quickly to do just that before I forget].

Also need to roll a socket onto the SoJ but won't do that till I roll ChC onto the Helm (to compensate)

Busy levelling Trapped and Enforcer in the meantime.
 
Build progressing nicely

45 percent sentry damage

Buriza xbow ok'ish while I wait for something better

Gambling for T&T and gem leveling atm - solo GR25/26 nicely doable now
 
Change your MS rune to Arsenal AT.

/waits for "but I've got +cold damage"

/responds rockets gives more dps :)

Recently made this change. 3 extra 900% rockets per MS per Turret is definitely a lot stronger than the cold equivalent. I definitely notice the difference.
 
FA is far more useful to get the chilled effect. The cold sentry is pretty useless in comparison and with ballistics the added damage from rockets is way better for both MS and turret itself.

Switch done.

I don't have a Krider so using Cold Bola's rather than FA - still need a generator...
