no le... my luck is one hit wonder only hohoho

not sure if i have u on friendlist but lets do de farming and crafting... find it fun to craft eq and laugh about the absurd stats of some rolls especially chest armor with damned DH bonus skills!

3 different 2 set combos

cannot that one drop dps badly

the blackthornes increase my life by 10k and reduce dps by 10k (compared to ik chest and inna pants)

certainly a good investment for barbs... so cheap they are too!

basically cheap gearing hehe..of course it may not be best gearing but just having some fun changing costumes keeping in mind i am using skorn and trying to maximize rend farming build with low focus on aps but instead on cc and cd.

my trifecta priorities:-
low aps - not too important for rend build so have neglected this (budget barb ma)
high cc - important for rend build to crit those rends and get better fury regen for ww since i also have low aps
high cd - complement the high cc

ik combo - helm can go up to max 6cc (bis mempo but 6cc mempo too expensive). cheap belt with ls and decent main stats so that no need to spend too much on ls skorn. together gives +60ar!

blackthornes combo - chest and pants. great for ehp and surprisingly cheap! an easy 200k ehp boost (in my case) with only 10k dps lost compared to ik chest and innas pants (cheaper combo but unfortunately losing the pants movespeed bonus and the ias)

nats combo - ring goes up to 6cc (but ok this is a little expensive) and boots can get a 100 str 100 vit roll that is not too expnsive. importantly more cc bonus! and also 12% move speed bonus from boots is great

interestingly however now when i activate wotb, overpower, and brawler my sheet dps only 450k now.. (it was 550k earlier)... shoot.. wonder if it was partly because of my change to socket my skorn with ruby instead of emerald.

thanks!not sure how archon wiz works but in existing gear seen in d3up each str point will give me +77dps. each minimum or max dmg affix will give me +66 dps so i decided that avg dmg on gear doesnt seem attractive?

+1 Primary Stat 77.28
+1% Crit Hit 2,368.93
+1% Crit Hit Dmg 347.73
+1 Minimum Dmg 66.52
+1 Maximum Dmg 66.52
+1% Attack Speed 1,806.53
+1% Elemental Damage 1,942.87

since i am a 1.2 to 1.3 aps barb, would be curious to know how the breakdown looks for the higher aps

any barb with a soj -4 or -5 to hota can borrow for a test run?

remove thrive on insanity but reduce cooldown to 30s. hehehe...

dont be too worried about it.. another blanket statement just like earlier ones made which they wanted to improve Dh's grenade skill... wont be changed for a long long time

soj with -hota rocks!!

yup its my most exoensice item on my barb.. summore with no billion dollar stash, can only afford a 26% bonus to elite and non cold soj

yes yes.. nerf toc but overall reduce the 2min cooldown la.... 30s sounds good hehe

one soj with -5 hota good enough for unlimited smash already(at max fury). using -4 and it does the trick ok...

going from skorn build to dw.. sheet dps lose 40k dps but sheet dps can get net gain 40k dps instead since wotb uptime is much better

so far even on mp10 i see skorn only doable on dense mobs areas and doing solo otherwise you lose out on wotb pretty easily.. if team games 4 players and you have barbs wwing around the creeps and scattering them then lagi worse ..

and then i also saw the ww breakpoints and noticed with dw and wotb i would be doing 100% more ticks with each tornado.. so actually now i know why ppl call skorn as paper dps hehe

i guess u r doing fine bcos u have good aps!

your barb damn pro la... still need feedback hehe.. anyway i run on just ls on belt... on whatever mp without loh.

for RD sure tough but then rend lifesteal to rescue... the only issue for those who stack ias is that the rend wont be so effective and not enough to cover the RD... so i just dual wield... stack str high, cc, chd and least important is ias

my build now which i feel i cant live without rend bloodlust... passive maybe can take extra 3%ls but i feel mp10 ok so far unless too poisony or too arcany

if wotb nerf then go back to skorn lo... haha.. i dont mind... just reduce the cooldown as well. 1 min cooldown will do hehe

if barbs have to use shield then the other classes will

cheer83.. do you use bash or frenzy for fury? or rely on ww? lets say single target

after being used to wwhotarend build with ww on left mouse click.. now try left click frenzy and rightclick hota or ww.... wow in a mess!

yah thats why i find it so hard to get wotb active with skorn. can only depend on slow ww ticks for fury. but now want to add back a main attk fury generator my fingers cannot coordinate already... lol now just do dw but stick with wwhotarend combo...the ww easy to generate fury..
