Best 4x build to date 10/27/2014 in your opinion?

[Kicksome]

I'm trying out 4x DHs. My gear sucks so far, just started the GRifts - only up to 19 so far, but I'm still able to do them fine. I have a few pieces of marauder gear across all my guys. DPS is maybe around 500k each.

Is everyone playing 4x DHs or mixing another class in? The DH seems pretty fun actually, I like the sentries. Here is my setup.

Someone said in one of the posts that a monk was a must have?

I am looking into this as well kicksome, intrigued about boxing in Diablo 3. I'll be keeping my eye on this thread.

Monks are nice if they are independent. They group up monsters nicely and add a lot of group benefits. This works if you can stand toe to toe with them, but probably wouldn't mix well with DH's if boxed. Maybe if you managed the dual-mouse thing. I remember posts with people having success with 4x monks, 4x crusaders, and 4x Wizards. For some reason Devile backed away from the previous Monk + 3x Crusaders, but I'm not sure why. I also don't think 4x monks is in the same category as the others.

The flavor of the moment is definitely 4x DHs. I'm using them, and was hovering around GR30 before I got sidetracked by real life. From reading posts by Dev, they eventually hit a wall (in terms of GR Level), and he was experimenting with 4x Stampede Crusaders and 4x Firebird Wizards to get beyond that.

I can do 4DH up to about GR32 with above average gear (full M5+RORG, 4 x TnT, mix of bows and 2h xbows). Is it fun, but I needed a change.

I am now doing 4 x crusaders using stampede, and honestly I think a LOT more fun. They can take much more abuse than squishy DH can, at least up to about GR 25 where I am currently at as I finish gearing. Plus, being able to speed around everywhere makes things less boring during a long play session.

Maybe I'll break out the crusaders again. Last I left them, they had the full crusader set items where using the FotF build.

What did you use while gearing up to stampede?

It seems like the crusader Fate of the Fell build has vanished. I guess it's not that great anymore?

It's good but the bar is no longer T6, which is does great at - players want to get to the highest grift possible or at least 35+ and when you hit that level there is only 1 option for builds from each class. (some might have two but technically one excels the best)

Crusader - Stampede
DH - T6 turrets
Wizard - Fire set.. forgetting the name.
Monk - Sunwoko
Barb - Raekor's
WD - pets sort of.. or their dot build but it just doesn't scale as good as the others.

Currently the most powerful and also the easiest to play is definitely the demon hunters.
I got my wizards to be comparable but in order to really maximize DPS there is just somehow too much stuff on the screen and I get bandwidth lag, my PC can handle it but the game isn't able to and everything stops moving and jitters.

I just did GR 31 (I did the time trial and it put me at 31) with my 4x crusaders with the FotF build. Just need one more of the steed shields to drop, and continue to level up my gems to get the secondary benefits. Then I'll take a look at the Stampede build. I tried it out, but kept running out of wrath.

Stampede is a bit gear dependent. You need perma uptime Akkhans from the 6 piece or close to it, while also keeping up the 50% wrath reduce law.
