Barbs are objectively the best class

The /played posted in the samael killing video of t4v was also said to be post stormblast bug hotfix. So...

even magic damage component which is simply not comparable with any other chars in mod (well... maybe very few like bow dru

??

the only magic damage bow druid gets is some extra flat tacked onto the first three skills. it's really negligible unless you do full laughing ghost with the new bow.

I meant nearly 1000% EWD from single skill

Even with elfin weapons, it's heavily outclassed by stuff like lion stance and shamanic trance on barb . (for the sake of comparison). the 1000 ewd on bow druid doesnt really feel like it does much besides on nova shot, even with a 300 max damage crafted bow. lvl 121 atm and most charms up to that point besides some of the unlocked 120s. bow druids just cascade and spore shot brought up another 10-15% WDM, I think.

So, it seems as though barbs are the most robust/versatile class with virtually zero limitations. They have a build for every possible occasion and often dont even need to respec (I.e. fortress spam).

As an Amazon loyalist, I can’t help but notice the bleak disparity between my own character’s capabilities in endgame gear and the capabilities of a Barb with mid-game crafted/TU gear. I need to respec practically every time I do a new UBER and then I’m forced into playing a glass cannon. The only “tank build” (Spearzon) is incredibly weak and can’t solo any moderately difficult Ubers. Hammerzons are cool and fun but they’re inefficient and can’t handle Uber’s nearly as fast as even the weakest barb builds.

I know it sounds like I’m bitching but I feel it does take away from the enjoyment I get out of a very fun mod.

Is there any plan to address this inequity?

did you mean for all barb build? or there's a specific build that make barb so op?

ah yes we needed spicy threads like these revived

Well this thread sure didn't age well at all

Still better than "Shared stash when?" new thread
