Iron Spiral Barbarian Guide (Skill plan & Gearing section updated)

I'm following the early items build, but i have no res. Do I have to put some gem or MO rest here

el rw armor, eth rw belt, jewelword gloves, gems and jewels are your friends in the early game

use early game RW,s and jewels to get resistances. you also can use Mo's when you get to A2 since sewers provides you good amount of gold when you sell stuff you find

I'm using full TU items, i will try some RW for res, ty for fast respond

Hello, im kinda new (or rather a returning player that hasn't accomplished much in previous versions), and i thought i would give this build a try. I have to say it surprised me positively, all the way through hatred was a breeze on P8 (with items from early game section). The difficulty started as soon as i hit terror. Basically i had no idea what to do anymore -.- I decided to fiddle around with MO (had no idea which ones) for TCD in armors, life steal and life on attack in weapon. That at least made me able to survive terror mode on P1. I tried farming K3K on terror mode, but not a single sacred unique dropped, just one sad set armor (after farming like 12h?!). I completed terror difficulty, but got 2 shot on griswold destr, so i gave up on destr difficulty. Any advice for the newbie would be appreciated. Im stuck at early game items section with no idea how or where to progress from here

PS. Sorry for the wall of text

Physical Resist 5%

and so on. also you should be using bear stance on places where you think you cannot survive. Get resistances max and experiment with your skillbuild what is optimal. you cant make 75% Block yet so you could rely on Runemaster / Bear stance and spirit guide to get huge amount of armor. when you have more charms and stats then turn to dexterity to get block done

Thanks for tips, also what MOs should i get? Like is it better for life steal in weapon or life on attack? Also where should i farm these items? Since K3K doesnt seem to drop any sacred uniques?

don't focus on getting Sacred uniques yet. Just try to make black road challenge done and find Nih runes or higher to make runewords you need.

also in weapon you want either crushing blow or deadly strike.

you can also craft a weapon with shrines that has some good proc like balefire /flamefront with some good damage. that carries you far.

Terror k3k / fauztin ville is good place to start. some base armor for runewords you can find in terror TA

Hmm thanks for all these tips. I still have more newb questions xD Would you be kind enough to tell me what items i should be looking for? Like is ancient armor the best choice for

whatever shrine will do. best is weird or creepy shrine (shrine in cube with rare sacred weapon and transmute). ancient armor is good for erawan if you find one. some sacred armor will do and switch to better when you can. weapon can be any sword like barbarian sword or 2h sword.
