Hello there,
It has come to my attention that there is a new, or well, not really new, firebird bug.
This has been exploited to achieve #2 on the european seasonal ledaerboard and #1 on the chinese one, i assume that it will completely screw up season 6 leaderboard, so might as well make it public.
Here is a youtube video explaining in detail how to use it.
Step to step guide :
1. Enter the grift and find a blue pack of mobs.
2. Ignite 1 of them only using disintegrate and run away from it, do not kill it.
3. upon finding a new elite, use fire blast ( default 1 in archon form ) once to get the dot on him, you will want to do this every 3-4 seconds,you will no longer be using disintegrate, if you do, you have to start from step 1 again.
4. This will cause the elite to procc the bug and your dot from 4p and 6p will be multiplied by about 50 x.
5. The elite should die in 2 ticks of fire blast.
How do i know if it's working ? you should have 50 stacks of firebird ( NOT ARCHON ) at all times, not lower, higher possibly, but not lower.
Notes : you want low sheet damage for this, therefore, skip any paragon into int, ChC, ChD and Area damage. Go for vitality instead, also.
You want as much cdr as you can, since the exploit itself will do the damage, you can literally roll cdr on everything to have as little downtime between archon as possible.
In additional, no int germs, use cdr or vit, same for weapon, you do not want ChD gem you want a elite % dmg one ( white )
Made a d3 planner for the gear you will want to run this with, hope this helps.

I hope this is clear enough, in addition to the youtube video.
Edit : My personal oppinion is, blizzard will not swing the banhammer at this, the wizard european leaderboard on heroic is FILLED with people using this, and now the non hc as well. Too many people to ban, but then again, this is an exploit and using it is on you, this is just my 2 cents.
Edit : apparently d3 planner wont let me remove points from ChC, ChD and area damage from the paragon points, remember, you want to skip the 3 above mentioned from your paragons.
Edit : d3 planner now has all skills & runes you need for this, might edit this post later to include a full gameplay step to step guide.
