You'd probably want Spirit Vessel for HC. And get jungle fortitude. Apart from that, it seems good for HC.

It is pretty great. Highly recommended! Link to spec:

This is the best build I've used. Bears seem redundant but they kill elites faster than acid rain when you chicken in and/or spirit walk to get up close.

I was gonna make him just for mf, but it's hard not to be a sucker for dps...
Also, idk if this is a tip or not, but I mapped the stop key to "T" and have acid rain on left click. That way you don't have to target a creep and can just press "T" in a general area.

Its def doable in HC. P84 and I'm not dead yet....

I don't use angry chicken though, as when I tried it I was always waiting for it to end so I could attack...

I don't use Jungle Fortitude either. Although this depends largely on how well you're geared, and taking either GI/GF out would slow me down quite a bit.

You can blow angry chicken up and deal dmg to get out of it. I just use it for the speed, then blow it up when I encounter a mob. Also comes in handy in the keep to quickly blow thru doors.

How do you blow it up? Click on the icon I imagine?

lol, ya doors are annoying

edit: got it working

biggest issue is that angry chicken seems to have a knockback effect which can scatter groups and make efficient aciding difficult, since these are near death anyway I could normally let my pets finish them as I run away, but using triple speed I have to sac pets

I found much simpler way to use stalker/chicken/spirit walk. Treat stalker+chicken as a single move. Do stalker and then chicken instantly afterwards. Treat spirit walk as a separate move that you can't do when you are a chicken.

For the chicken knockback, the way to solve that is to have your intelligence high enough that it 1-shots trash mobs. CC/CD don't help, you just want raw intelligence and weapon damage.

I hadn't been using soul harvest, but it is a pretty nice dmg boost. Pets seem like they spend all of their time chasing me. Maybe they're better when you need them to take dmg for you.

Is poison dart good? Try acid cloud (acid rain) over it as your main aoe. Still use spirit walk+bears for elites.

Harvest >>> dogs, you can 1-shot trash mobs.

Poison dart too slow for speedruns

Um I dunno why I do spirit walk apart from chicken. Probably should do walk->stalker->chicken? Ok I will try that

I started as a WD, got to 60, realized DH was much much better at the time so I switched. Eventually I came back to WD after the pet buff.

Spent 80m on an armor marrow tonight, most I've spent on an item yet.

What were the random rolls you went for? That's pretty expensive for an armor unless it's almost perfectly rolled

It rolled life % and armor. tbh, I knew I was probably overpaying but it was the last thing I felt I needed to upgrade before I saved up hundreds of millions for a good manajuma knife or fury (likely a fury).
