Check out some of ChuckNoris's guides. Hes got a few in there that should still be good for this patch.

^ no.

don't use those guides. they're not as reliable because they're in single player and heavily twinked in most cases.

There is no throwbarb guide for 2017 yet. Few guides are being updated, and I believe a summon barb guide is in the works, but no throwers yet.

Ok thanks L H, do you have a build guide that could help me follow how the throw leveling process might take? New to playing barb

Im actually using ChuckNoris's overkill barb guide as a base and it's working really well for me. Im 80 at this point and haven't had much trouble at all. Mind you I'm fairly new to Median.

What worked for me:

max: daedalus, spirit guide, block passive
10pt wolves, 1-15 stempede (depends on your +skills/amount of charms), wolf stance - rest (~10).
1pt immortal and thundergod

get crafted axe with deadly strike mo, max damage roll and proc, sor/spikenova
use 2 dex crafts with lah runes, dump some points into dex to reach 2265 dex for 75% block, rest into str
shield - invictus, chest - nih rw, belt - truce, you want stack as much %dr as possible

Something like that shreds through TA.
If you want to clear fauztinville, then either bloodmage merc with one item that has teleport when struck (thur circlet works). He never dies and 1-shots necrobots. But if you want clear 100%, he isnt very fast.
Or faster, do same build but put points into rebound. Having 1pt into screaming eagle helps a lot too.
For duncraig, either stempede and ignore physical immunes, or rebound and deal with enemies behind wall, learn what order of rooms to attack, so rebound doesn't target stuff in "wrong" rooms. For TA/Cows id use stampede.

2,2k dex for max block on barb? :shock:

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 :)
