Alternatively, you could farm with a different crusader build. I farmed with LoN blessed shield cause I stupidly farmed for that build first

you're not going to farm t10 off the bat unless you already have a full set
 
Do you already have another geared character on your account?
 
Farm a bunch of blues,yellows,whites and death breaths. Farm bloodshards as quick as you can and spend them on Crusader. Upgrade yellows especially for weapon. Easiest way to get a specific ancient weapon honestly.
 
Yup, upgrade to legendary is best path.

I would say about 5000-6000 DB and corresponding yellow, blue and white materials should suffice to get a new build rolling.

Here is what I usually do:
  • Pause or Stop Demonbuddy while in town. Make sure your backpack is empty.


  • Figure out what items I need, turn them on in the Trinity menu:
    • Trinity Config > Items tab > Kanai's Cube tab > Use checkboxes in "Upgrade Rares..." section


  • Craft the corresponding yellow items at the blacksmith and move away from the blacksmith.
    • I usually do batches of 15-25.
    • Must leave at least 4 spaces in the backpack unless you already grabbed your materials.


  • Turn Demonbuddy back on.
    • Make sure it doesn't start running to the blacksmith or it will salvage your rares!!!
    • Not sure why it does this about 5% of the time.


  • If you have your ItemList already setup to your new class' needs, let DB go salvage the garbage.
  • If it's not setup, you need to pay attention to things as they transmute, or just handle the salvaging duty yourself as you will have to craft more yellows.


  • Rinse and repeat.


You have 10 non-jewelry slots to fill. Look at your desired build and see what is necessary to make it work: Set bonuses, LoN rings, skill buffing items, etc. Craft those required items first.

There is a link in my sig you can checkout as well.
 
Is there any way to make townrun switch characters? I would LOVE to farm shards on my Wiz, then hop onto my Crus to spend them.

since i can split crystal to make white parts, is there a way on the bot or a plugin to do this so i dont have to be separating DB and crystal manually ?

There used to be a plugin that did this, not sure if it's still available, supported or if it's been integrated into Trinity.

The reason I am not going to go search to find out is that it's unnecessary. Gambling was seriously nerfed after the first patch when it was added. You're much better off to upgrade rares.

Reason: They are more targeted than gambling and don't require character switching and an additional plugin...

Example: If you want a 1 handed wand like Wand of Woh, Kadala let's you gamble for 1 handed weapons. That means ALL 1 handed weapons. You could spend 10000 shards and barely ever get a 1H wand, nevertheless a legendary one or the specific legendary one that you want... And you can forget about a well rolled ancient legendary one.

Just stockpile materials on one account, switch characters and use the "Upgrade Rare to Legendary" functions of DemonBuddy. Craft the items at the blacksmith, let the bot do it's magic.

Are you talking about converting crafting materials?

Yes, you can automate this using DemonBuddy.
Main Window > Plugin tab > select Trinity > click Config button

Choose the Items tab > Kanai's Cube tab > look for the CONVERT CRAFTING MATERIAL'S section
"During a town run Trinity can convert non-legendary items into crating materials.
When you have less than the amount selected below, the bot will start creating more of it,
consuming your highest [quantity] crafting material in the process."​

Keep in mind some simple math when you set the slider: (Y+B+W)/3=where to set the slider
(Yellow + Blue + White) divided by three will equal the average quantity.


If your material counts looked like this:
​
[TABLE="width: 300, align: center"]
[TR]
[TD]Yellow [Veiled Crystal][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]15000[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Blue [Arcane Dust][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]15000[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]White [Reusable Parts][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]6000[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]
15000+15000+6000=36000
36000/3=12000
I would select "Reusable Parts" and then the slider to about 12000.



However, you do not want to set it significantly higher then your middle material
[TABLE="width: 300, align: center"]
[TR]
[TD="align: left"]Yellow [Veiled Crystal][/TD]
[TD]14000[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: left"]Blue [Arcane Dust][/TD]
[TD]7000[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: left"]White [Reusable Parts][/TD]
[TD]1000[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]
22000/3=~7300
I would select "Reusable Parts" and then the slider to 7000 [Amount of Blue material].
If you set it to 7300, you would end up with 6850 Yellow and Blue.



Need both Blue and White materials?[TABLE="width: 300, align: center"]
[TR]
[TD="align: left"]Yellow [Veiled Crystal][/TD]
[TD]30000[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: left"]Blue [Arcane Dust][/TD]
[TD]4000[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: left"]White [Reusable Parts][/TD]
[TD]2000[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]
36000/3=12000
I would select both Blue and White crafting materials for conversion
Set the slider to 12000.


Remember to pay attention when using your materials and re-apply the formula or turn the conversion off, otherwise you might end up with 0 of a non-selected crafting material.
Example: Conversion set to 12000, you have used enough materials to where they are all around 6000, then you will eventually end up with 0 yellow and 9000 blue and white.​



You can also increase your white count item pickup by turning on "Weapon Racks" in the object settings.​
