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

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
