Mage/Dark Wizard Help Monster build

Hello, I was wondering if someone has a good monster build for 2.0.2 (either arcanist or riftwalker, maybe riftbender but I find that difficult in raids with many mobs)

Mythic boots and all other gear is ok (I was thinking of getting crabs).

I want enough damage to comfortably solo Greg, with at least 40k EHP w/o tomes (hopefully more).

 

Here's a few builds I cam up with. Pick whichever one you like the best.

Walk speed's a little low, and damage is kinda eh, but you're extremely tanky with 15k heals.

> Libra
> Greaves of the Veneer
> Crusade Sabatons
> Summa
> Summa
> Lachesism
> Contrast
> Monster [f6f6f6]


Here's a variation on the first one. It's better at stacking winded due to higher attack speed, and has better ehp, healing, and damage. It loses out on the entropy major ID and has worse mana regen though.

> Remikas' Authority

(alternate tree for the above with more winded: https://hppeng-wynn.github.io/build...n1G0t0r2S0t1g00001006CO0z0z0+0+0+0+0--7Rt-v68)


Here's a slightly different build than the first two. It has much less mana regen, and lacks the entropy major ID. It's an arcanist build with low health regen, so life sustain is a little eh, but the 89k ehp makes up for that. The big thing about this build is that you get 100 walk speed, which is good enough to kite Greg if you get the walk speed bonus, or have windy feet. It also requires 4sp in tomes.

Would the following skill tree be any better, since it includes manastorm?

Depends on what you want. I wanted to get orphion's pulse for better survivability since the build lacks walk speed, but you could go with that tree if you want better mana sustain.

 

Ok, I find orphion's pulse less useful since I am pretty sure that when heal is recast, orphion's pulse is cancelled. Since I tend to spam heal a lot, I think manastorm is probably preferable.

How much ws is needed to comfortably solo greg?

 

Around 100 ws is needed in my experience.
