You want to be aggressive and blitz through the GRs, so I prefer Flavor of Time currently. It was great when it was active, but you'll be surprised by how often you get hit by things if you're not playing carefully and playing carefully is pretty counter to speedfarming. In my testing, I found Squirt's to be a bit inconsistent.

Traditionally, you would use a Hellfire Amulet since Demon Hunters have great passives, but both Flavor of Time and Squirt's Necklace have very awesome powers for Multishot now. The first choice comes in the amulet slot. The point is to showcase that even before you get to a higher Paragon level or have amazing gear, you can still take great advantage of the build and your speed clears will only go higher/get better as you further gear your Demon Hunter out. I still had good pieces with augments on them, so it landed me with around 12,000 Dexterity and I also still benefited from some high level gems. In my testing (see the video below), I simulated being decently geared by removing nearly all of my Paragon from Dexterity except what you would have at Paragon 800. Once you get one of the better pylons for the build, things particularly accelerate and you should get average clears in the 2.5 minute mark. Now that there are a few new powers introduced in Patch 2.6.6 to refine the build, the time has come to produce that guide! This build is particularly good for solo Demon Hunters that are looking to speed mid-tier Greater Rift content (90 to mid 100s) for fast gem leveling and decent experience.

Over the last few seasons, people have requested that I make a guide for speedfarming Greater Rifts with Unhallowed Essence Multishot. Reduces the number of items needed for set bonuses by 1 (to a minimum of 2). Stat Priority: Dmg range CHD CHC Socket.Stat Priority: Dex CHC Skill: MS Socket.Multishot hits enemies below 60% health twice and its damage is increased by 150 - 200%.
