barbs got worse

[Eric1987]

Since 1.1 barbs got a LOT worse. My barb now woulda owned any pally and necro and any druid. But now I can hardly own a druid! Wtf is up with this gay ****ing shit? WW sucks the ballsack now

[Nubli]

either you havent played d2 in months or your just slow... its been like that since the patch came out in... what, September? yeah i hate what they did, now ww barbs are a thing of the past. i had a ww/berserk based barb, and it was so gayed up by 1.10... oh well, at least i still got 2 ccb's 3 socketed each

[Eric1987]

I just got started playing again and made a barb thinkin they were good and to my dismay I was wrong. Very wrong.

[Zak]

barbs.....well they WERE a great char, and WERE very fun to play as well, but wut is really the best combat move for a barb now?....all i know is i like their Bo. <<PERIOD!..lol

[Soldier]

i would say conc, cuz defense actually matters now and is interuptable

[Zak]

ya, my barb used conc, and ww. Con was far more effective, especcially on Boss's

[Eric1987]

and another thing. Not about barbs though. Have a sorcs Frozen Orb got worse? I mean the lightning skills can do a shit load and I asked a lvl 79 what her frozen orb does and she said like 450-470. Will that really do good in hell? I made one and I was jw

[Zak]

i dunno, i think orb is still pretty damn good

[Nubli]

orb didnt change one bit, cept for the synergies, but they are weak. the overall main dmg of orb stayed the same.

[Zak]

orb is a nice move,

[Eric1987]

how come its so weak but it still pwns? I don't get it.............

[Zak]

because its not just 450-500dmg its also cold dmg, and the spikes around the orb hurt to <(^_^)>

[Soldier]

orb is good cuz there is a lot of spikes, i think like 16 or something. the orb itself doesnt do damage, the spike do. if the orb blows up inside an enemy it gets hit with a ton of spikes, and cold mastery peirces

[Eric1987]

hmmm.....I am gonna make a necro now

[Kagato]

only thing i like about 1.10 barb patch is the neato new WW graphic otherwise my old barb is now a naked mule

[blackdog]

440-470 is enough to take down hell meph i think, right now my sorc's orb is at like 500-530 or something, which takes out meph pretty easily for me

[Eric1987]

hmmm that is strange. Is the max skill lvl now only 20?

[blackdog]

hmmm that is strange. Is the max skill lvl now only 20?

what do u mean....... u can go to lvl 20 without out plus skill items with plus skills items i've seen people get to lvl 42

[Eric1987]

Whoa they did that also? I thought that only applied to warmth. They lowered every skill limit. GAY!
