Why are so many buils behind a paywall?

Bottomkek, that is very good for a new player. It took me forever when I first started to even find an exalt.

Solo self found in Torment !!!!

You seriously just need to find a build that not only works, but is fun. Dual strike accomplishes this.

Dual Strike is not fun for me.
It's like joining the olympics as a fat man while the others use Cyclone and Static Strike and run like hell. Sure you finish at some time but when you could use Cyclone/SS too - why use a skill that's so inferior to the rest?

And now we go back to elementary school and learn the basics of statistics, would you be so nice instead of embarassing yourself?

Because they enjoy it, tough concept to swallow hey.

They can enjoy it, but I reject it for me. I want builds to be nearly on par when it comes to balance and GGG doesn't balance shit.

Builds go from 6k DPS to 5 billion.

So I use the skills that feel fun for me and are strong at the same time.

More difficult monsters require more expensive gear. If you're satisfied with playing ~70 maps, then solo self-found is pretty capable (even for CI, crafting exists for a reason). But if you want to do "achievement" kills like Atziri and Uber, you do need to put in the required currency. That's how the game is designed and I think it's pretty fair.

Same is true for more powerful skills. You want a badass rainbow nuke that can 1-shot the whole screen and most bosses? Want a 2 million DPS boomerang of doom? You have to grind for it and get the required stuff. Nothing is meant to come easy.

The game is designed around trading because there's a myriad of items that are absolute crap to you but absolute gold to someone else and that someone will never find such an item in his entire game life - I mean, heavy trading is necessary for a game whose corner stone is build variety to work.

You're contridicting yourself too much, do you want a build thats fun and effective or do you want a build that's only fun and effective for YOU. and you ONLY, and anyone that doesn't agree with you is trash being taken out?
Your thread suggested you can't build what you want and enjoy the game, without having a huge paywall. Well I gave my example and you're just saying "NU-HUH, I DON'T LIKE THAT BUILD THEREFORE MY POST STILL STANDS"

And actually, I played back in Anarchy and come from Diablo 2, but thanks =P

I want the normal game: playing solo, beating merci, going maps. Solo. Selffound.

People are already doing that. Why can they do it, but you cant?
