This guide is under development. Its tested at the moment on PTR.
Stay tuned for updates.
My highest one was 61 with 56 seconds left. It was a really good rift though. Usually the bot competes 57-59. I use my own script which is a variation of MrNiceGuys: Ulianas Monk – Patch 2.3 Season 4 I switched for Mantra of Salvation and took the GR55+ FastMode. Nov 01, 2017 Greater Rifts take on the randomization of Regular Rifts, but remove all loot and interactive objects in favor of pure fighting, all the way to the Greater Rift Guardian. Defeating him yields all the spoils earned from the clear, and then some. With their uniquely scaling difficulty.
This is a Scenario that takes you to another world to stop the legion invasion.
In PTR it seemed bugged since you had to do it solo, but I guess that this will be a 3 man scenario.
There are different worlds with different scenarios.
How do I enter an Invasion portal?
It seems that you need to complete the first part of the main storyline which is completing the storyline in Krokuun, which is the starting zone.
In PTR you could talk to Illidan that gives you the first quest regarding invasions after completing the storyline in Krokuun.
Once you are eligible, check the map for a portal (see image below).
Head over to that portal and click on it.
You will then que up for the scenario.
Completing a scenario gives 10 Argus Waystones.
Argus Waystones are 'used by the minions of a Sargeras to forve open portals from Argus to other Legion-contrelled worlds'.
So, it seems that you need Argus Waystones to do more scenarios after you have done the first 'free' one via the Illidan quest.
The different invasion (worlds) scenarios
Different portals take you to different worlds.
There are 6 different worlds (rifts) for the invasion scenarios.
- Invasion Rift: Ice
- Invasion Rift: Blood
- Invasion Rift: Forest
- Invasion Rift: Fire
- Invasion Rift: Islands
- Invasion Rift: Marsh
At the final stage of each invasion rift, there is a miniboss. But it seems that the miniboss is not tied to the actual invasion rift. It seems to be random of which one you get on a certain rift. I have seen 4 different finale bosses on 6 different rifts but I guess there are 6 bosses.
- Flamebringer Az´rothel
- Flamecaller Vezrah
- Baldrazar
- Flameweaver Verathlx
What are greater Rifts
Greater Rifts has world bosses instead of the 'normal bosses'.
There are 6 World Bosses.
The gear ilvl from world bosses are 930+.
You can see on the world map when a greater rift is up by looking for a skull icon on the portal.
Where is the World boss rift portal located?
It is located in the third zone in Argus, Antoran Wastes, see map.
Tactic/Guide on the different Invasion Rifts
Invasion Rift: Ice
This place has 2 scenarios that differs slightly. Maybe it is just for testing, or that it will be random everytime you enter.

DPS: Nuke the orbs before they explode. They spawn explosions several times before the orb is gone.

What's The Dmg Between Greater Rifts Full
Do not stand near braziers because that heals boss.
Boss has a stacking buff that increases her fire dmg.
Boss does fire bombardments that does nasty damage, especially if boss has high pyro buff that increases her fire dmg.
Boss summons fire waves periodically.
I haven’t found a way that removes the boss fire buff.

Tank the boss outside the dome, he gains the buff as well if he is inside.,
Nuke Gripping shadows fast otherwise they will grab you and toss you around and do dmg.
Interrupt shadow bolt volley
Move away when he does frontal shadow breath (cone dmg)
Boss: Flameweaver Verathlx
Summons small Volcanoes underneath him from time to time. They spit out fire on the ground so move away from volcano area. These volcanoes don’t seem to de-spawn.

One of the best Monk builds with one of the best Greater Rifts pushing capabilities
Sunwuko is one of the best Monk sets in Diablo 3. It offers several solid builds for various purposes. Here, we are presenting the best Solo Greater Rift pushing build based on the Monkey King's Garb set. If you prefer better mobility over raw DPS, you can also try the Sunwuko WoL's speed-farming variation. Our full guide can be found here.

General information
Offhand dmg two weapon fighting pathfinder. The entire build is based on the
Monkey King's Garb(named after Sunwuko the Monkey King) set which provides the following bonuses:
- Damage taken is reduced by 50% while Sweeping Wind is active (2/6)
- Sweeping Wind spawns a decoy every tick next to the last enemy the Monk hit. The decoy taunts nearby enemies and then explodes for 1000% damage for each stack of Sweeping Wind currently active within 10 yards (4/6)
- Lashing Tail Kick, Tempest Rush, and Wave of Light have their damage increased by 1500% for each stack of Sweeping Wind the Monk currently has (6/6)
Sunwuko set in combination with Vengeful Wind legendary Fist Weapon increases the damage of Wave of Light to an insane level. This combined with all the items listed below, make up for one of the strongest damage dealing abilities in the game. It is even further amplified by the use of Bastions of Will rings. Your primary attack also is used to generate additional Spirit (you won't be able to use Epiphany - Insight for that purpose), and grant increased damage reduction thanks to Spirit Guards legendary Bracers.
Sunwuko WoL build is easy to play. All you have to do is to keep your Sweeping Wind up (just casting it once you start a Greater Rift is more than enough) and spam Wave of Light. You also need to keep your buffs up that include Spirit Guards, Bastions of Will and Dashing Strike Dodge Chance to stay alive.
