An easy-to-use and tanky build that is great for Solo Greater Rift pushing. It does not rely on any sets, but rather a few legendaries to enhance your Skills.

This build mainly focuses on using Hydra with the Mammoth Hydra Rune, summoning them to kill enemies all around you. 

Besides this, the core Skills of this Build are:

Passives

Equipment

Serpent’s Sparker will allow you to have an extra Hydra, and increase the damage they can deal. Fragment of Destiny, The Magistrate, Winter Flurry, and Tasker and Theo will all enhance Hydra further. The Shame of Delsere will make your Spectral Blade faster, allowing it to boost your damage quicker. Squirt’s Necklace and Convention of Elements will boost your overall damage. Aquila Cuirass, Pauldrons of the Skeleton King, and Stone Gauntlets will boost your survivability.

Legacy of Dreams is an essential Legendary Gem to this build, as it will massively increase your offense and defense for having only legendary gear equipped. Enforcer and Bane of the Stricken will generally be the other two best Legendary Gems, both of which will further increase your damage.
