Lol, good spot! No it isn't up to date. Blizzard evidently taking their sweet time. I have 4 Earth set items (just need the last two from running a Lvl 20 GRift).

Test yourself in a T4 - if you can manage that okay you'll do the GR20 easily

I just went straight to Zultan and got the 4 piece, then opened a GR20 and finished it with like 30 seconds to spare. And that was with those act 5 trappers and poison darters as enemies for the entire first level. On a chasm tileset, with small passageways that I couldn't just skip over to find the entrance to level 2.
And on a firebird Wiz. Arguably the slowest of all of the sets at 4 pieces.

So just about everyone should be able to manage GR20 the instant they get 4 piece. Even if it takes a try or two.

Thanks for the boost last night Jaco. At the moment I might as well be hitting enemies with a feather duster at higher T levels but can definitely see the potential. Awesome that the set items come so quickly but the grind now starts for the rest of the necessary items (rings, amulets etc).

yeah, in the same boat as you now! Need to grind some items

Build please? Or profile link.

My idea started as a DB farm build with Sages before it went mainstream, but I saw Quin69 has made a practically identical build, with video that you can check here: http://www.diablofans.com/builds/70681-flash-fire-wizard-t10-speed

My farm toon: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/LimpNoodle-2379/hero/43754953 (hope its updated)
Build is the same, gear a tiny bit different (better I think). For Leg farming I use Firebirds parts, for DB farming I switch it out for Sage set. (obviously Tal's stays)

Quick and tons of fun

Good god, that is awesome. I have wanted a WoW build that works properly for ages.

With your set up and Cubing Goldwrap to free up the chest slot for Cindercoat. To adapt this for Mid tier GR farming. Could you not put the Firebird's chest on and use Orb of infinite depth to scale your damage and damage reduction? Then that frees up your cube armour slot to put on the 50% dmg reduction when over 90% resource chest.

Just a thought. It wouldn't be efficient at pushing the cusp, but farming 10 to 15 GR levels below your max is probably possible?

Yes exactly, glad you thought about it that way.

Thought about it myself already and have that setup, just have not tried it. If you get better rolls and more dmg you can even consider wearing Halo of Arlyse & SoJ or CoE and use Ice Armor. You will drop some dmg from obvious sources but stay alive better.

It all depends what level you can speedfarm. I mostly use my keys to farm higher GR's than I think this build would be able to speedfarm easily, so I think it will shine the best on Tx
