Fun Barb Build

[RollsRoyce]

i tried this build this ladder from scratch, unlike most ppl think you can indeed use this build with stances, but even with a scripted switch between snake and kraken i didnt really like it too much. Nice videos though

thx man man , can you tell how exactly u got it to work with stances?
i just made it today, still experimenting on it...

This build isn't new, ppl used to play atmg+wyrd sin with Ashenwind + judge shield from very long time ago. Basically your build is a barb version of it.

What part of stance-less barb isn't new and how can say that two different classes with different skill trees are the same?

Ppl don't play it very often now because many more effective builds have been found.

This is the exact mentality that prevents players from coming up with original builds.

Btw the lag from wyrd, Crater and time strike together, as all have ND and hit a lot, is really terrible.

Not all of us play on a 1984 Hewlett Packard Toaster Oven, there are plenty of builds that are lag heavy but why should that matter if it works?

One more reason for not playing the build

Maybe you have a build with some videos you'd like to share?


Next time you maybe offer constructive criticism instead of shitting on someone for trying something different.

I think ND is a valid point though. And for Dcows and Tran there are way more efficient builds. I'm curious if the barb also shines in other areas, did you try Dunc yet?

.......... original builds

... ... when i first made the Firestorm miniguide ( Stanceless barb) back in 2010 , 90% of the forum members were either skeptical or laughed at my build , on dozens of pages of debates on the old forum (modsbylaz). it used to be a melee build , going for a different approach from the one taken by the OP - not using wyrd ; it was a melee with smaxed doom from wolves + timerless Fortress and tons of fire procs/fire damage to weapon , having a Tonatiuth RW on switch attack for extra dodge from Crane stance to use in places where defence was important - old forum members remember what i'm talking about . "how could you play a barb not using a stance" they said , "not even 1-pointers?" , "how is it stanceless if you got crane stance on switch ? " - this was the dumbest debate .

The build was quite fun and strong .

Indeed the combo of wyrd+ ashenwind+ judge shield is an old combo (used since 2009) , and yes , the are minor differences between classes while using that build . it all sums up to the passive sources of damage to weapon (ways / stances / Curare / others) for making the difference ...but that extra damage can also be accesed from other sources like : gear with elemental damage to weapon , doom+ttad , tons of CB , procs .

so , yes , the builds arround that gearing + wyrd are almost the same , no matter the class you go for

my 2 cents

Firestorm was lovely, one of the most eye candy builds I've played lol. killed my first quov tsin with that guy

it is also the build that showed me the usefulness of the -ns command

So, now I have to know how to lay an egg in order to decide if that egg is good? I have to know how to sing to say that a song sounds bad?
And I don't understand why so many ppl make this kind of stupid false argument, criticism appears in separation and should appear in separation with creating a work.
Btw, if u insist:
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=886
just replace fragshot with wyrd if u want an ORIGINAL build. I don't know why u got mad from my comment and why u assumed I did't have any build of my own, cause people's ego is strong?

I just think its unnecessary to belittle someone for their efforts. OP probably spent several hours testing different items/skill point allocations to find something that worked well enough to share with the community, only to have you say its not worth playing because its too laggy and there are other better builds. That kind of attitude is very close-minded and in no way encourages players to pursue builds using skills/items that might not otherwise be used. I'm not mad though, I just think your post was in poor taste and immature. Nice pally though

I have used wyrd on a couple of different builds, mainly a "javazon", which ended up essentially just being a wyrd zon. Fun character yes, but only for an alternative play style to change things up. Definitely more effective ways to play the character, but when your playing for fun, to try new things out, I think it worked great!
Do you use thunderslam on left mouse click to keep things stunned in sticky situations, or strictly wyrd?
