any inferno barb here able / willing to tank for me in act3/4?

im a wd with 30k hp, 42k dps, 350-400res, 180mf

having a nasty time...

Looking for a barb partner with high mf very tank to play together. I'm a wiz with 47k dps 250mf base. Hope to make my game easier with more output. Willing to share good item finds.

with 1200 res, 50k hp, and 10k armor is it possible to tank mass arcanes in act 3?

ww barbs. does aspd matter?

to get a high dps sword or low dps dagger for offhand?

thanks for the response

so regarding efficiency of ww barb -- lets talk about: sword vs dagger

would you buy an OH sword with 12000 dps boost
or
OH dagger with 9000 dps boost

please state why

what a long thread, so sprint dmg comes from mainhand so i dont need to care about offhand dmg at all, i could even use a 200 dps weapon, right?

but what about whirlwind? same case?

there any problem with a 200dps dagger? I mean, the damage isn't pretty on the character stats. heh.

OK, so WW looks at character damage then..

The barb does 60k dps now. Looking to get more... I think the dagger is holding me back. Do advise if should change to a 900 sword or 700 dagger. I know what stats to look for

I expect sword to have more dps, and dagger of course more aspd. Would a sword mess my ww up?

Attached thumbnail(s)

my mainhand currently is 1k dps 250 str 100 vta socket
offhand as above

looking for a dagger/sword

crit+socket+200str+600loh

700-800dps dagger

or 900-1k sword

thing is, i can find sword way easier than dagger...... dagger really difficult.... and sword does more dmg, so it makes me wonder if the aspd is that important. its a 0.1 difference.

got over 40cc
already using weapon master


im looking to go 80-100k dps thats all.

at 60k now,...

ok, dont misunderstand, my ww barb can spin all the way through already. but farming too slow, i wanna hit 100k and storm the map fast

the dagger dps so low, so if i look for a replacement, i want it perfect

if i change dagger, should have 70k dps.... after that not sure what to change already

Added on September 1, 2012, 7:32 pmi know some of the gear are crap, those didnt buy, self drop...waiting for good deal only then change...
right now dagger is priority only for dmg.....

so someone tell me really.... .sword up 12k dps or dagger up 9k dps

which would you choose?

barb gear is very expensive i need to tell you all that lol.

good chart, didnt notice that. that is probably the decider.

i have something like 1400-1600 loh, forgot..

what got me wondering is lifesteal.... i wonder if it has any impact at all.
still cant figure out sword vs dagger. numbers are just numbers, someone needs to have the experience to say if a sword works

i got about 50k hp and 900+ resist 9000 armor buffed, how about you?
