Hey guys. I've got a Barb on single player using the Axe frost build. I'm using Bear Stance and Iceburst, and using Yaggai's Sagarus's 100 percent chance to proc STormblast

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_r1EvURPcQ


I'm following that guide to a T

I've got Wandelkoning, Strength Beyond Strength, Dementia, Akarat's Trek, Gulag's Frenzy, loads of charms and full loadout and I still die pretty easily. MY DPS is outrageous but my survivability is trash. I'm not sure how to rectify this. I am not using blood hatred or any of that, as I don't find it that incredible.

Does anyone have an end game build for one of these guys? Or any suggestions on gear changes?

Walk instead of run. Also that build is old and has many -10 enemy light res MOs in the items to get more stormblast damage. You can't do that in the new patch.

Do you have all unique charms? And good triune charms?

AND he uses illegal maphack and I guess d2multires (his screen is huge can't even show skills properly) and let me guess the reason his "charms" are not that diversified is because the 2 he showed are duped 20 times.

Yeah I agree. Looks like he hacked them in pretty strongly. Are there any other builds you suggest I run for Barb that are effective?

Problem with this axe is, that after skill changes, and adding weapon restrictions, you cant use it with stormblast. So you can't focus on stacking -170 lightning resist, to get maximum pierce double stormblast (one from skill, 2nd from proc). You have to use either cold skill or ancients hand, and good luck getting high pierce on both of the skill you trigger the stormblast proc and the proc itself.

Labrys barb is joke in this patch. You can't stack sober amount of pierce for two different elements and what is even funnier, 1hand with glad dominance deals more damage AND is way more tankier on top of that. Also, 2 hand weapons are slower in this patch. :lol:

You die because you have zero sustain. Convert skills suck for farming, because they do not apply life leech. I had a gg farming barb previous patch, he was using x2 qaraks for 700 laek and it was great, but this build isn't that great either anymore. Here is the vid:


But I wouldn't recommend wasting time on this, it sucks now. In current meta you just either stampede or play summoner with gay a3 abjurer merc.

The whole concept of block vs no block is funny. Barb is only char that has choice, easy block vs no block. Other classes are either restricted to being no block, because of the skills, or shield for them is only for stats (paladins). There is not a single case of a character that just gives up block to use 2h weapon.
Think about it: block = 4x more EHP, you are four times tankier, FOUR. because you are hit only 1/4th of time.
How much fucking damage would 2h weapon have to deal to be competitive to that? At this point it is probably doing same or less damage thanks to extra deadly strike from block passive. But even if that was gone, power of block is really hard beat.

I loved the songs so much :)
Reminds me of Aphex Twin.

It's not that black and white though. You still need to sacrifice stats for it and there's also a frame that locks your character down (so it's not like max res/dr%/avoid dmg). But I do agree that it's very strong, especially so on Barb.

You need 1 item to have max block on endgame barb (xis fal helm), or one dex craft and 150~ points into dexterity (out of 1100 available). It really is nothing.
