how much does that block passive give to inc % block? 6-7? This seems a bit overkill to me getting max block on barb that easy

7%
best part is if you max it it also grants ~40% deadly strike

Don't forget the bonus magic damage to your range attacks.

dont forget you lose some str factor for damage however. all throwing axes use str

If I had to be little critical about balance here, it is stampede vs earthquake comparison.
Both skills have similar cone shape aoe, so they are fairly comparable.
Stampede 110% vs earthquake 60%, almost 2x more damage.
Stempede can be used from dostance, shift+click, doesn't require target.
Stempede has better aoe, if you click close to character, you get almost half of nova aoe.

Earthquake looks really pretty weak in comparison.

How about overkill? I've finished A5 dest with a similar build as you aerial (except I use overkill) and everything just melts (well, baal took around 5-10 minutes). I've only got the butcher charm and a bad crafted balanced axe + TUs. I'll respec soon though to try stampede, never tried to put a few more points into it and I don't have +skill charms yet).

Does the range on stampede increase as you level it up? It seems quite limited in that sense, whereas overkill can go past the screen.

Overkill deals more damage (Multihit) but aoe is lower. As you get better gear, stampede outperforms it for aoe clears imo.

really?

man I'm trying it tonight :O

How about the range? Do I need to get closer for it to hit?

no if you max it it will go like 2 scrrens and the arc is huge, but you dont need that many points in to it, imo

i have 1 point in it and go's over 1 screen, but i have + 20 to skills from gear charms

Cool thanks a lot. I hated the fact that even after it got buffed, it still seemed not to be strong enough as a primary skill. You're proving me wrong and I love it, now there's more variety with the builds.
