What are your other 3 passive? Aren't you loosing too much DPS with all VIT Gem ?I'm at 1100 PARA with a 126 clear and 6 augment 100 and seems like I can't push any higher , I can't stay in place because of toughness //// I didn't try that variant yet …..I guess you plain with spirit is willing ? or still Manitou ?No mana lacking ?Thanks
I have blood ritual in all cases, I tried swap red gems for vita gems. with vita gems I gain 12% thoughness but lose 12% recovery. I don't really know which is better, with vita gems the life pool is bigger but the life is lose faster. Maybe vita gems is more confortable in most of cases.
Really great video Wudi! great information and very clear on what to do/not to do :P GL in the rest of the season u are very much appreciated in the community with everything you do :)
Like how well everything is explained theese quides are so helpfull i almost gave up on my wd now i have to give it a new shot. Thanks wudijo once again awesome dude even helped me couple seasons back with my impale dh when i got my first primal karlei and didnt want to mess it up by rolling wrong stat and i decided to ask him first and he actually helped me out.
Been playing solo this season due to time constraints. Watched this video and made some changes you recommended and immediately did a 127 with 1085 paragons and 123 trapped, 119 enforcer and 102 stricken and only five augments. Really happy, thanks for the help!
Hey, Wudi, thanks for a nice guide :) Health is a resource - you nailed it! I started using my safety procs on purpose, just to max out important booms.
Hey bro, another really nice guide! I got stuck with my WD due to survivability issue and your way of strength crimson+vitality gem really helps a lot for my casual play without thousands of paragon. Wish you luck to top the leaderboard and happy to see WD surpasses sader.
Thanks so much for this, you're a genius! I can run jungle fortitude & Blood Ritual and drop Rush of Essence, with Spirit Vessel and Grave Injustice - playing HC season. Now am 96% DR standing still and 98% DR when moving with travelers! I can't run out of mana even if I want to (63.9% RCR / 47.3% CDR) and my toughness went up by a ton - this at only 917 para and 2 augs (one vit and one int) so it will only get better!
Thanks for tips..., So what gems where are you have? I am playing Also HC season i am 1000 paragon no augument and i am running with str in set helm yellow for resource , and legendary gems Trapped , stricken and gogok. :)
@@martinkosco1099 for pushing am using stricken / trapped / enforcer, for t16 speeds / bounties / leveling gems gr75-90 am using esotheric, bane of powerful and gizzard (so I don't die even if I DC, my toughness now goes to 2.7B standing and 3.7B when moving) and manitou will kill everything on screen in t16
@@martinkosco1099 no am using Topaz in helm for RcR, and Topazes in armor too because am only 900para this season HC, my armor is fine but resists and dmg need a boost hence the topazes.

For solo speeds drop the mask of jeram for voo's juicer, wear squirts necklace, grandeur, and ring of emptiness, cube barber, sacred harvester and wormwood staff. Drop piranhado for horrify with stalker run and run soul to waste on soul harvest for movement speed. For gems you use zeis, trapped, and wildebeast gizzard. This setup does solo 105s in about 2 and a half minutes and for group speeds with znec and zbarb you do 110-114s in around 3 minutes. The reason you drop the mask of geram and enforcer is because pet damage and your attack speed does not buff manitou damage so every multiplier you have on is for buffing both manitou and phantasm damage.

Always enjoy your content mate nice guide again :) would really love to see a group wd guide with pause and u explain what u doin. We try to push with a friend it’s his first season and at 135 we hit a wall :/
beautiful. you covered everything. i can even hear in your voice how much the rg fights suck. I am ~7gr behind you but even in the mid 130s the bosses take 3:30 and some of them like vesalius or the choker i just quit the run when i see them. it takes about a full second to put 3 phantasms on the ground and then pop the first one, and its on the first pop that you get the stricken stack, so the bosses that move a lot, move quickly, or teleport alot are almost not worth the aggravation. especially when you dont run manitou it makes the rg fight even worse, but agree that its worth to run the mana rune on spirit barrage overall. bosses with adds are actually beneficial bc oculus and area damage procs, so i always hope for saxtris, skeleton king, etc. totally agree with the part at the end, when you say there really isnt a way to make this speed farming efficient. i've found its about 30-40% slower than the good builds for speedfarming 100-104ish, but until you get the core items its kind of necessary. lastly, i think the best spot for the 3rd 7% IAS roll is actually the travelers pledge. I think highest dps is to go flat damage on both rings, with cc, cd. since the % element on the amulet is not really that big of a bonus due to additive nature with mask of jeram, getting the IAS roll on amulet, glove and weapon gives you the breakpoint with the least damage loss.
@@boyishmerlin 7 on weapon, 2x 7 on other items (glove/ring/amulet) also - imo this is not a good season to use the enchantress trick to get to a breakpoint like wudi said. on many rg you will need to hide behind your templar as a shield, so just get the rolls on items.
On D3 planner, 20% cold dmg is a 14.3% dmg increase where 7% IAS is a 5.65% increase. at least for me and i'm at the breakpoint he's talking about. Also, getting the 7% on rings means you can get better stats on your neck. you can only get 6% chc and 50% chd on rings and 10/100 for amulet. most people won't be that lucky to roll perfect stats on each jewelry slot
@@one_rich its a great tool but this season wd isnt captured very well by d3planner imo. the % cold dmg is additive to mask of jeram, so the additional 20 (if you got perfect neck) would go on top of the bracer 20 and the 200 from jeram, so its only taking you from 220 to 240, less than 10%. the ias on the other hand, lets you get more ticks of phantasm on big mobs to get massive area damage procs. and if you get the breakpoint he mentions in the video it lets you stack stricken faster on rg (if you dont run the manitou version). just my opinion tho, lots of variants for wd this season so do whatever you have the gear for. haha.
You started to lose me in your in-depth guide then you followed up with this, which helped alot. Really appreciate the time you put into explaining things. 1 thing, I cast to get a oculus ring then stop casting and run in the ring and wait for 7 to 9 sec's to cast again?
In HC solo pushing forest is a bit too elite dense, often with several pack near entrance, I prefer battlefields or desert (with enough dense). The best success I've had for somewhat fast runs is just going ingeom instead of harvester but its not optimal. For lower lvls you can drop roe/locust and go echoing fury and dogs/fierce loyalty, but the build doesnt screen wipe like the really fast speed builds.
Hey man great video. Hoping I can implement some of these changes and see a difference, as survivability is preventing me from progressing beyond the low 100s. Out of interest, what is your life pool after adding the vit gems?
Hi wudijo I found a primal ancient travellers pledge int, crit damage, cooldown and socket. I really cant decide if i should enchant int or cooldown for the crit chance? currently at 42% sheet cooldown. Hoping for your advice on this!
i returned to my WD after neglecting him for years and these guides arre very helpful thank you. on another note anyone know why d3planner never finds my character?
@@Lheimrey Let me rephrase the comment that was not put on this comment. Why did he put strength instead of Vitality. When his build even uses vitality gems. Now go back to self cutting.

is there a reason there is no shield on follower or is freeze of deflection bis?
@wudijo what would you change or update on this setup for season 21?
What I keep looking for also. Unbelievable that no one is making an update video to this build that is still top tier powerful and popular.
I don't understand the Mask of Jeram use? This is season 21 first time playing WD.. What does it do?
For follower freeze shield isn’t good to take ? I will try swap red gems for vita gems :)

Poor Baskenater XD
Great guide. Please speak a little slower. hard to understand at times.
Holy shit rift guardians are a bitch to kill as WD. As u can see in this video. Hardly any damage.
ane Ctp crimson set on WD is a BAD build ... pls dont say ctp Crim is the best ...u just dont know
let's see your build?
You're not providing the alternate, elaborate
Why not use Wormwood in cube?
I still use wormwood because I am horrible at applying it manually . But it also lets me free up the Creeping death passive.
too bad the fucking rifts aren't designed around big pullls. tired of fishing for progress mobs
the really fast talk along with low voice/whisper/volume makes it hard to understand what you're saying
you already have a heavy accent. Can you speak up? Slow down?
