Hi
The ability usage and out of combat movements needs to be updated for raekor in order for the set to perform at its fullest. Assuming the build
http://www.diablofans.com/builds/78989-r6ik4-furious-charge-barbarian-gr-solo
First, the fastest way to clear rifts and GR as a reakor barb, with the gear and abilities from the above guide, is to ignore white trash mobs and only kill rares/blues with ancient spear. Therefore:
Trinity needs to ignore white mobs as kill targets completely.
Out of combat the bot needs to save furious charges untill it sees a white mob it can charge to and then continue moving without starting to try killing the white mob. As it is now, the bot charges instantly OOC and then sits at 1 stack while it could have waited a few seconds to charge a white mob instead and then keep on charging.
Ancient spear should only be casted on blue and rare mobs and then only when it has both full fury and 5 raekor buffs.
Lastly the logic for selecting which mob to charge needs to be charged, sometimes the bot charges white mobs very far away from the blue/rare when there is enough mobs so it is not neccessary to do so. That is, you one charge another mob and still not lose any charges but be closer to the rare/blue and use ancient spear much faster.
The reality is that almost all the damage in this build comes from ancient spear and furious charge is unreliable as a damage source, at least for higher grifts. Killing white mobs is therefore a waste of time. If one has many raekor stacks and there is no blue/rare mobs close, then it might be OK to use ancient spears on a high value cluster though. Overall I believe those changes would cut clearing times in half.
