No pro... can't do MP10 uber.
they are more pro players here.
we just play play.

Based on my build and observation.
For Barb & DH, LS works better.
For monk & witch doctor, LOH works better.

Just a quick reference, you can see the % of life recovery from LOH & LS for both my monk and barb.
Monk
Barb
So, you can see LS gives a better life recovery (generally) for barb.

Note #1 : It depends on the skill you use (i.e. weapon throw, first of thunder, bash etc etc. The scale could be different)

IAS is very good for HOTA.
You can have a HOTA build barb.

Added on December 3, 2012, 10:23 amwhy you always get good loots?
This ring knows what you need - it gives you + life%.

I see.
This guy is really crazy. 170K HP with more than 50% block rate...

Btw, how could he equip 2 similar rings? One of rings is the legacy?

You need to keep generating fury to keep your WoTB active.
1) Keep hitting mobs
2) Keep having crit chance
3) Full set of IK
(etc etc... input if you can think of any)

oh... it was told barb was the fastest among all class of heroes.
So, this myth has just been busted.

yes, for MP9/10, war cry is not good enough (at least for me).
The defensive buff (of WC) is not good enough to withstand high damage from the mobs in high MP.

Overpower/CA is better.

P/S I found some skills play a very important role in high MP (for barb & monk).

Yes, you can replace war cry with Overpower/CA.
As i said, it works very good in high MP, particularly in MP9/10.

You won't tell the big difference in low MP (0-8) because war cry can do the job.
But once you play high MP (9/10), you will find war cry can't do the job anymore and overpower/CA works much better.

Note # 1: This is for WW or WWT build. For other build, some people use overpower/killing spree or other skills.
(You need to test and see which skill works for you)

WW + Weapon Throw

Not only WW barb, even HOTA barb can have long active WoTB.

The key thing is the fury generation.
You must find a way to generate fury as many as you can.

Few things you can do...
1) Mighty weapon on your MH
2) High crit chance
3) Hit as many mobs as you can / hit as fast as you can
4) Full IK set
5) etc etc...

Hahaha... I always remember his naked run she-barb.
I always got distracted when she's WWing.... true hot fury generator

What about the damage output between the skorn and dual-wield?

Dual wield - more speed, more fury, more damage (in total).

What about the bleeding damage on skorn? When it combo with rend, it can cause high damage too.

I learn it from cheer83.
Ricgatebecko has real high damage WT.

I'm just entry level barb as compared to these guys. True story.

hahaha.... yeah, died 3-4 consecutively. Lead by example, die 1st

Added on December 4, 2012, 7:58 pmYes, all the bosses bled like a river.
We hit 1mm, moba hit 5mm.

---

Added on December 4, 2012, 8:02 pmYes, it is fun to play.
With your DPS + 300th spear, you can dish out 500-900K damage easily.
You really got a powerful build.

I hope i can achieve the same DPS soon...

MP10?
With your current AR, you need to drop War Cry and replace it with Overpower/CA.
You should have better survivability with overpower/CA.

Based on my build/experience, you need at least 40K of HP.
I increased my HP from 45K to 52K to have better survivability (I mean more comfortable game play).
34K+ HP is certainly not enough.
(For my build, I slot in Amethyst to have 62K HP when I do uber boss @ MP8/9/10)

Beside HP, you need LS (forget about LOH for a moment as I believe you gonna build a 100K DPS barb).
Get at least 5.5% LS (it depends on your defensive attributes, AR & armor & HP).
Keep couple hundreds of LOH as bonus, if you can.
With 5.x% LS, you may need to kite a bit.
(For my build, I need 8%+ to be comfortable WWing in arcane/fire).

Attack speed wise, just stack as many as you can "afford".
It is a good thing to have anyway.

I tried "farming" 3 days ago @ MP3 (i seldom farm).
I could kill most white mobs by just sprinting. No need WWing.
I lost the concentration & dozed off shortly. True story.

I don't actually go farming/leveling. I just play.
Lowest I go is MP4 (mostly coop).
If it's solo, I play MP7-10 most of the time.

WW faster (HOTA can sprint+WW too).
Put on your Amethyst, hellring and signet.

25% CC from gears should be good enough.

Will Barb get frozen by Wiz when it's in Berserker mode?
If Wiz can't freeze it, i think it will be "oops".
If Wiz can freeze it, it will be "oops" too.

Yes, i think pvp is quite difficult to implement.

It's frozen, can't move. Can't skip the twisters too.
That's what i meant.

Imagine a weapon throw barb that slows down the movement of the target by 60%.
2-3 throws will get full fury and turn into berserker.
If Wiz can't freeze Barbs in berserker mode... Wiz will have problem too.
Is Blizz going to nerf WoTB on the barb? Unlikely...

What if there are 2 teams with Wiz & Barb & Monk combo... hmm... world of wars.

It's not going to be easy implement PvP.
Blizz is a real genius if they can implement PvP and achieve balance build for all class of heroes.
