- i prefer to use liliths legion + carsomyr since they give you better DPS. You could use Quarak's will in your secondary hand to get bloodlust buff from it tho.

- invictus replacement would be crafted shield with arachnomancy on melee attack + block%.

- Block mechanics: when you have shield equipped you get block%. you can raise up the % by getting points to dexterity or getting "increased block chance" stats to your gear or skills. Gladiator's uber skill gives you huge amount of block so you need to max that + 2650 points to dexterity to reach max block. much more accurate discription about block you can find here: https://docs.median-xl.com/doc/concepts/defense


What about sockets? You say jewels with fhr but my fhr is already max thanks to the wolf stance so what am i supposed to socket now?

For weapon i socket rainbow because you said cb should as close as possible to 100.

For other items i use %5 tcd rune which i am not sure about.

I have ignore target defence on quarak but not on carsomyr, do you think i should still go lilth + carsomyr?

You say put 1 point into spirit walk because we are gonna use it to teleport right? So we are spending 5 points just to get teleport. What if i get aldric jitan charm to teleport or void charm, can i left them 0 points?

I found out that ancient blood is pretty good skill why do we left it on 1 pts i didnt quite understand. (Ofc you said skill planning is not absolute but still i didnt play barb before so im trying to learn)

Since im playing on sp i have a lot of sacred uniques so if you have a ULTIMATE build on your mind that you dont tell us (because its too expensive) can you tell me that so i aim for it.

Life Leech jewels with some nice life adds for example

you can either use arreat's cap or use lilith depends on do you need Dr or not and you see glacian nova useful.

No we dont teleport with spirit walk. we use it for our merc to get wolf / bear stance aswell.

I found out that ancient blood is pretty good skill why do we left it on 1 pts i didnt quite understand. (Ofc you said skill planning is not absolute but still i didnt play barb before so im trying to learn)

Cause we dont gain effecient enough stats from maxing it :) we want to spend skill points to other skills. you can try to max it tho. i havent tried that myself.

Since im playing on sp i have a lot of sacred uniques so if you have a ULTIMATE build on your mind that you dont tell us (because its too expensive) can you tell me that so i aim for it.

i havent tested out builds this far yet so i dont have any on my mind. i am sure there will be very good builds over mine. but i i come up with something i will post it here :)

Does life leach really help? Im at 50% and it hardly fills my health on terror. I also have like 60 laek and that doesnt help a whole lot either. I know its not 250 like you suggest but I would think it’d help a little. Just curious.

yeah it helps. keep it around that. when you have 50% ll and around 250 life per kill you are just constantly leeching full hp bars. also since you are terror you dont have that much dmg yet. you can also survive witouth ll but its harder especially if you dont have lpk yet

life steal in jewels i think is impossible because the wiki say only "Bonus to Summoned Minion Life, to Life and Replenish Life" in suffix and prefix affixes so how can i get your 50% life stolen?
