how to balance IIR ?

for a while i am confused with the whole 'must have as much iir as possible or bad drops' and 'must have as much dps as possible to clear faster'

what's the middle ground here?

i noticed having high iir = can't do high level maps

while having high dps, low iir = can do high level maps but not much rares

please help thanks

you are suppose to get carried with high iir i think

Make the best build you can, for higher maps. Set up a secondary skill, link it to culling strike + IIR gems. Get the monsters below 10% health, then just cull them with that secondary skill. That's free IIR right there, and you dont have to change anything in your build.

thanks for the replies
