Equipment
This is what I use on my throwing barb. You can choose what you would like here but I find this combo to work quite well.
1st Choice 2nd Choice
Armor
Chains of Honor (Resistances +2 Skills)
Enigma/Arcaine Valor (Eth Zoded)
Weapon Side 1
Glimmershreads +200% ED Glimmershreads +200% ED
Weapon Side 2
HOTO x2
3BO Weapons
Helm
Arreats Face
Andy’s Visage (IAS and 10% life leech)
Boots
Gore Riders (for the Open Wounds, Crushing Blow, Deadly Strike, and Enhanced Defense)
Marrowwalks (for the +14 Strength, +17 Dex, and Enhanced Defense)
Belt
Ver Dungos 15% DR
Nosferatu's Coil 7% LL
Ring 1
Raven Frost (for the AR and Cold Resists)
Angelic Halo Set Ring (for the AR)
Ring 2
Raven Frost (for the AR and Cold Resists)
Angelic Halo Set Ring (for the AR)
Gloves

I am not sure what other good throwing weapons there are so please tell me if I need to change the weapon.
Skill Point Spread
This is how my Barb is spread out
*Throwing Mastery LVL 20
*Frenzy LVL 20
*Double Throw LVL 1
*Double Swing LVL 20
*Battle Orders LVL 20
*Shout LVL 5
*Iron Skin LVL 1
*Bash LVL 1
*Howl LVL 1
Depending if you have max resistances or not I would put at least
*Natural Resistances LVL 5
This is a build to LVL 82 if you keep leveling I would put my points in either shout or double throw. If you want more attack rating then I would put my points into double throw.
Stat Point Spread
I am not sure how to calculate the damage of a throwing item. So I think that dexterity and strength will have a big role damage wise.
If you don’t use any of your stat points till level 82 you will have 219 life base. When you invest 1 point into Vitality you get 4 additional life. By level 82 you will have 410 stat points, if you do not do the stat quests.
BASE STATS
Strength-30
Dexterity-20
Vitality-25
Energy-10
STATS on LVL 82
Strength- 120
Dexterity- 160
Vitality- 205
Energy-10
With all of the bonuses you have from the equipment you should have
STATS w/ ITEMS
Strength-175
Dexterity-216 (may vary by a few depending on the + dex on raven frosts):blank: not sure if this is too much.
Vitality- 255
Energy-10
[b]PvP Strategy[/b]
[b] [/b]
When I am dueling ranged characters I use and enigma so that i tele to them hit with frenzy (left click attack) teleport back alittle then tear them up with double throw. Or if I am fighting melee i use COH and I run up to them hit with frenzy and destroy them with double throw.
Please tell me if I left anything out and you may wanna use an ethreal Arcaine Valor w/ a zod rune socketed for tons of life and 2k + defense.

Note that you can do much more damage with 2x lacerators, godly if they're ethereal. Gimmersheds are not recommended since they are slow as hell, and so are the 20 points in frenzy. The frenzy points are much better off going into Iron Skin and Shout.
