If you take down all the white mobs but dont kill the elite, then consider pulling it along (It will follow you a bit, and the monk can use cyclone) while you find more white mobs to form another big group. Once you do find an elite don't fight it right away, instead the monk should pull it along a little bit (using cyclone) and round up an even bigger group of mobs (wizard can help here as well), ideally two elite packs and a bunch of trash so you can wipe the screen with all that area damage. The best way to do this is to seek out and form large groups of monsters, because a big white pack is more beneficial than wasting time on an elite with no white mobs (and no Oculus for your wizzard to stand in). In my opinion it is the hardest bulid to play properly, and skill plays a very large part. The wizards biggest tool is area damage and you want to capatalize on it.īe aware that it is insanely hard to get all the skill timings correct with this build, and this may be the single biggest cause for the difference in GR levels. You don't want to go specifically elite hunting, instead you want to go density hunting. Support monk is capable of surviving 108+.

It seems like we don't have enough DPS, again, teams higher up the ladder have gear that's similiar or worse than ours, it must be how we tackle the grift.any tips which hidden witchcraft we're missing is appreciated!ĥ0% crit, 475% crit dmg, 70% area damage, 29% meteor dmgĪudacity, Glass Cannon, Dominance, Unwavering Will

What am I missing? Do we have to exclusively hunt elites, ignoring everything else? What if a giant blob of whites is blocking the way for the wizard? The monk needs to stay pull them away from the bottleneck.

We seem to be doing fine in large groups, but the meteors seem to get increasingly worse the fewer mobs there are on the screen. Our approach is to gather as many whites as we can find, then destroy them, moving forward until we find elites.

We are a 2 player team (support monk and firebird wizard) and are struggling to get past GRIFT 105.Īccording to leaderboards we have superior (on paper) DPS to those running GRIFTS 115+, so it must be something in the way we approach the rift.
