Barb For PvM - Daking - 09-30-2005
I was looking to make a barb for Pvm and i was wonder weather Frenzy or WW is better? I was thinking WW since it can take on many enemies at once. Also i was wondering the best weapon to use for PvM and possible PvP. If i use a BOTD Zerk or BOTD CB should i go duel wield or 1 hand + shield?
thx for the advice,
Daking

On the subject of what skill to use... I would go with WW or Zerk
(WW if you wanna lean more towards pvm... Zerk is always fun though
)also, when dueling, Always go Weap Plus shield...

for pvm u dont "always" needa weap +sheild so 1 2handed or 2X1handed ebotd's would be good
and never make a frenzy barb
never make a zerk barb
never make a conc barb
ww barbs and wc barbs are only barbs who dont suck, 1 lvl in zerk is good enough to own immunes and etc.

ww axe barbs are the best.. best weap combo is griefz+beastz.. ull get 2 fpa which is the fastest out of any build in the game. the only thing that can match this is a max ias strafe zon.
just think about the enormous dmg ur gonna get when the fanatacism starts multiplying the +dmg from ur grief.. GG o.O

k thx for the help i will try this out :laugh: , but also is it worth using a might merc for the + damage? and how much dmg would u do per WW w/o a nice Zerker BOTD?

id say get freezing aura merc, the one in nightmare act 2 defensive, then get the runeword that adds consentration

or get a might merc w/ the runeword that adds conc

ok i guess...

dont..dis..FRENZY BARBS...my own owned pvm and his best item was a 378ebotd cb...heh. ww barb with beserk is a great idea though, but since concen is a synergy, i tended to use it when i didnt want to waste mana on a single quill rat. if you're going to use dual axes, put a pnt in frenzy, not only is it fun, u run faster than a zon, and the frenzy bonus stays while u ww. works great with widowmaker too laugh: barbs r gonna b the new GA zonzlaugh:

If you want a killer PvM Barb go with a Ebotd Thunder Maul.

My Dual EBotDZ WW barb owns in PvM, the life and mana leech keeps me alive far more than I normally should. I don't know what the hubub is about Beast, I HATE it. I do alot more damage with another hearty EBotDZ in my hand.

why do people always like ebotz better than ebotd cb anyway. If they do do more dmg then its only a little bit. The cb has all that extra range combined with ww to plow through monsters. Axes...meh( jk lol not a flame just why do people use axes more?)
