In the context of overall effectiveness and success in making baal and uber tristam runs, which of the two characters: a frenzy barbarian or zealer with fanatizism could be considered ( if possible to compare) ,...to be a superior character.
That is, which of the two has faster and more lethal killing power as well as staying power, i.e. the ability to withstand damge and plow forward without backing off and drinking life.
ASSUME:
That each has the best melee equipment for thier class, suppose each with identical dracs, gores, fortitudes, verdungos, thundergods or other good belt, arreats for barb. andys or coa for pally, highlords etc,...with identical charms:,..damage, AR, HR and life charms, etc. etc..,,,,,,,,,,,,,,each with last wish and/or alzureth PB's,....exhile or hoz for Pally and collossus btds, death or etheral collosus last wish for barb.
Disregard merc as a constant, disregard smite as alternative pally skill and disregard such things as that each has vulnerabilty to oblivion knight's iron maiden and focus on overall general performance. Your initial unconditoned response.
I know it's like comparing apples and oranges, but, in general, can it be said that one or the other is " far" superior in the context of PvM?
Sorry I don't know how to set up a proper poll, but would appreciate any off-the-cuff opinions without getting too analytical with the question.
