A guide asked for by a viewer of my stream. Getting back into videos after a haitus, let me know what you guys think! Yes, I forgot paragon points, they are in the guide in the next paragraph!
Working on finishing a guide on DiabloFans to have one pretty link for the build- www.diablofans.com/builds/5274...

I'm glad your back

[@Xelray]

Thanks man!

[@craftedteammarcos18]

If they add trading I'll give you my Universal Remote that I got from Crota or give you G-Horn that I got from Hard VoG

[@nogatnep744]

Xel! You're back! I hope you didn't miss me too much (jokes), and I hope you didn't miss Xûr selling HotPF...

[@Xelray]

I actually missed him selling that and universal remote. My back has been killing me. I just slept for 12 hours for no good reason other than I didn't want to mess with my back. I am getting kinda' fed up without posting content, so I want to get back on the grove.

[@nogatnep744]

Sorry about your back, sounds terrible. I'm glad to have you back :)

[@FrioLazzlo]

Hi Xel. In your guide you say "Bane of the Trapped doesn't stack in groups, if one already has it". Can you please explain how does BotT work in group? Does this mean that if someone else has the gem and i dont i still get the bonus damage? The description of the gem does not imply this.

[@Xelray]

Hey Frio. Here is the description. "Increase damage against enemies under the effects of control-impairing effects by 15.00%." when you first get it. As long as that person slows the target, everyone will gain the bonus damage. That's what I've noticed and my friends have too. Actually I didn't realize it until they mentioned it seeing as I was under the same assumption as you. I don't know if it's meant to work like that or not, but as far as I can tell it does currently. It's the same idea with items such as Strongarm Bracers on a witchdoctor, or vacuum crusader. Hopefully that helps you understand it a bit better!

[@dIggl3r]

I thought it was imperative to use the slowest weapon possible for the maximum effectiveness of the M6 build... that isn't true?

[@Ca11mero]

It is. A Demon Machine or Arcane Barb are most probably a better choice than Etreyu. Mainly because it's very hard to find a decent one and also because %cold takes one primary stat slot.

[@Xelray]

Yes and no. Etrayu has a special stat that other things don't have. And the calamity is a good contender for this as well. That's why I put it on the board. Say if you have 40% cold damage, and the etrayu gives 20%. That increases your total damage by 14.2%. Bigger average numbers can't qualify to be better for two reasons, The amount of hatred you use isn't efficient compared to how much you gain back. While the numbers look bigger, the volume of damage isn't. I hope that makes sense. A "perfect" etrayu will be doing more than a "perfect" arcane barb. However, an arcane barb can be better if you have too much cold%, say 60% already. YET, you'd then want to reroll your amulet to roll different multipliers. Since the Etrayu allows for the most value out of a weapon.

[@dIggl3r]

Xelray
Ok well I got an Etrayu that lowers my dps by 7.8% but is technically +15% cold damage... so you got to wonder if it's really worth it.
I also noticed, it was much easier on the fingers/hand with a slower weapon (left mouse button being the generator, right mouse button being the spender). I love the Arcane Barb/Hellrack for this!

[@Xelray]

Kenneth Smith It's only about a 5% gain and really, if it messes with your playstyle, I'd stick to what your used to. Personal performance is always what matters in the end. Doesn't matter what the sheet says if you can't operate that way. I do that with a few things as well. My tank crusader is completely different than others, but I find myself able to handle it better.

[@kungfjong91]

What is your armory ? =)
