Do CTA'S help boost your BO lvl? because i thought they'd just make a new skill. like if i use to 6Bo CTA'S will they give me 12 BO more?

I would also like a guide for a con barb with no warcrys that has crazy max dammage as well as crazy defense.

also do aura's stack? like if i have a last wish giving me might. and a merc giving me might and a pally giving me might. will it all stack up? just wanted to know.

please leave feedback. barb is primarely for ubers.

thank you

1. ifyou read the notes on cta here: http://www.blizzsector.co/diablo-ii-discussion/33522-complete-list-runewords.html (http://www.blizzsector.co/diablo-ii-discussion/33522-complete-list-runewords.html)
you can only get a max of 3 to bo from a cta even if its 4,5 or 6. so your better off with 3bo weapons/hotos.

2. um, no warcrys...never heard of a con barb with no warcrys. especially if you do ubers why wouldn't you want warcrys?

3. nope. the highest arua wold be the one that affects you. instead of 3 might auras you could work it to have might/fanta/concentration

4. If you want an ubering barb try this guide: http://www.blizzsector.co/barbarian-character-development/33618-hellsings-pvm-ubers-con-barb.html#post361955 (http://www.blizzsector.co/barbarian-character-development/33618-hellsings-pvm-ubers-con-barb.html#post361955)

hope that helped.

well counting the +1 all skills from cta, u will actually get +4 bo :D so if u prefer to have more in 1 more in bo and 2 less in shout/bc (for each cta) than use cta's with +3bo :)

oh, my bad. i shoulda remembered that. but since your a con barb and they need defense i think +3warcry weaps/hotos would be better because +4shout>+2bo.

For the largest bonus to BO, use CTA 4 + HOTO.

mayb u think im stupid right now but if the CTA gets 3 skill and on the cta himself theres 1 skill u get 4 skills + the other cta with 3 and 1 u get 8 skills not 6 like u said isnt that the best bo gear then?

No there is a cap on oskills.



Skill Points that work for Any Class ("oskill" Skill Points)
The Trang-Oul's Avatar Set gives +18 to Fireball and +13 to Fire Wall. The boost to fireball (as well as Frostwind's arctic blast bonus and a whole lot of other items) are examples of what's internally known as an "oskill". These are skill bonuses that work for any class. If a Necromancer is wearing a Trang-Oul set, he'll get +18 fireball and any +X To All Skills equipment can further increase this. The same applies to all other non-sorceress class wearing a part of that set.
However, oskills work differently for classes that "own" that skill. In this case, it's a Sorceress getting a bonus to Fireball. In the other case, it was a Druid getting a bonus to Arctic Blast. If a character gets an oskill bonus to a skill that class "owns," the bonus is restricted to a maximum of +3. If a Barbarian is dual-wielding Call to Arms runeword weapons, the +3 cap is applied to the total from both weapons. This is all intentional, in order to balance these items.
My bad, CTA 3 was wisest choice.
