The TLDR 2H Barb

Belial is killable, you need to target small rat that runs around.
Other purify bosses such as laz are unrelated to the spec at all, you need different build/gear to approach this.

Thing with sor is, it is kind of balanced for the cooldown, if it was spammable, damage would be insane. It is just that damage is delayed and target teleports out of area before taking most damage. Damage really isn't bad vs stationary target, if you have endgame gear and high tooltip with good deadly strike. It shows well in void uber for example vs gluttony, who is good dps benchmark.

How To convert this build as MF build without losing damages.

How are people gearing the necrolyte merc?

The Hireling Handbook guide says it's out of date for 2.0 - and tbh the gear it recommended didn't really look good (not much +skills).

I thought about honorifics but that means no +skills.

you need great procs to clear faster , crafted labrys + SoR is a dream

Some parts are probably outdated. However, the Necrolyte guide includes new runewords so he should be up to date.

you can kill them with any damage now, this was changed

These gloves are interesting endgame option though, lot of avg damage and 200 str, it could beat the craft.
Hard to find interesting gloves.

Sacred uniques all suck and there is not good set combo with gloves as far as i can see.

I just tested this and procs barely triggers and only goes to front most of the time. True as you said gloves stat is above most.

Also finally managed to kill Astro on some heavy equips I prepared. SoR & Run is the key & patience :lol:

, slow also helps I think since its affecting his speed on summoning shrines. Won;t recommended for others on early gear tho, probly take this quest as last part on lvl 125 quest. Cheers

LOL you are right, now you can just face tank the main mob in the center of the circle while adds come in.

Is throw barb viable this patch for deep mapping?
