Great build actualy benchmarked it a bit here is what i've been able to do ( started 3.5 days ago ):

Level 92
Atziri => OK
Uber Lab => OK
T15 bosses => OK
Breach domain: Tul / Esh / Xoph => OK
Beyond bosses => OK
Perandus => OK
Map mods => Took an hour to test with the most ridiculous map mods possible + sextants + random leaguestones i havn't died once.
Warbands: Depends, some of them with map mods can be really dangerous here.
Uniques maps bosses: Almost all ( missing vinktar i don't have a spare one ).

Review:

Single target damage: Fine, as soon you have flask it become comfortable - Before it can be a bit slow. By chance they are cheap comparing to before.

Clearspeed: Not a clearspeed build but not a turtle one either. As long you are using abyssal cry it will be fine.

Items: Nothing hard to get - I tried uber izaro first time with two obliteration and no flask it required some dodge but it went good. Once i had a setup with scourge + shield and flask it became a lot more easier.

You may have some troubles to find a good vanguard belt they arn't going really cheap, again you can give it a try and craft it yourself you need some life, two resists are ok to get started and eventualy one spot for move speed.

Same for the rare ring with required stats except that it's a breeze to gear this character.

Jewels: This is expansive. At level 91 i decided to keep going with 3 jewels 7% life and few area damage, no evasion, and it's ok for farming uber lab and maps. Also already have around 365% move speed fully buffed ( without vaal haste ). Probably won't stick long enough to this build to buy them to be fair :)

Going for guardians and then shaper today will see how it goes :)

Additional note: Running on a 5L, 6L is clearly not mandatory for this build and it's purpose.

Thank you itsMartini for the great build, i enjoyed a lot to test it :)

Note: Any personal toughts on improving clearspeed when mapping ? Maybe another option than dual obliteration ? What would you use instead ?

Really enjoying the build, definitely the fastest lab runner I've played.

The worst part of this build is just leveling it. Spellcaster Ranger leveling is just painful. To anyone else trying it, Bladefall is definitely better for leveling imo and Zerphi's is a lifesaver. Once you hit lvl 56 it's super smooth though. My record uber lab time is definitely getting shorter and shorter.

@OP Just for fun I've trying out builds without (or minimal) double dipping in anticipation of 3.0. Uber lab runs are still super smooth without the Scourge. Am I correct in assuming the only other double-dipping is the gems themselves (such as Void Manipulation and Conc Effect)?

Based on my runs (works on a 4L smoothly), I think uber lab farming would still be fast if GGG straight up removed double-dipping's functionality (i.e. does not effect poison damage). What are your thoughts, anything you would change (specifically for uber lab farming)?
