Any strength-class bot guru's in the house?

Hi guys. Anyone here running any of the 2 strength-classes smoothly? I'm looking at going either crusader of barb on a new account. Can anyone recommend the best Strength-class to bot with, and what build I should use for the most effective build? Many thanks!

Sader with Phalanx Stampede build.
Simple and fun, plus easy to gear.

I still love my Holy Shotgun Sader. Fate of the Fell is a b*tch to get unless you're lucky, but triple Heaven's Fury just wrecks along with 6pc Akkhan's. Haven't played Phalanx Stampede yet. Having too much fun with HS.

easier to bot and find gear is phalanx bowmen. TnT, phalanx sheild and baleful remnant and you're pretty much good to go till you find your uber gear

Shotgun is fun in T6 and lower torment. Its not ideal past GR 32.
Whats good with stampede is that its long range and the knock back it has.

So I've tried both Sader builds, and must say that Phalanx Stampede is fantastic. I really nails higher GR's, and the movement through the leves with Steed Charge.. A LOT of fun to watch. Gear has nothing to do with the build I've selected. I have 4 FotF, with one being very decent, but given the cycle time through Grifts, there's a clear winner (imo at least, each to their own )
