Throw Barb 2017?

[Jimmy87]

Aerial do u do duncraig? Which gear and skills?

I cant do Dunc with my Summoner..... i steamroll everything, just the barrells suck - and the souls seem to hit me frequently, dunno why -.-

Depends on your damage.
Wekeast gear - overkill +wolf.
Better gear - stampede + wolf.
Very good gear you can start switching to snake.

But easy build is just wolf stance, and throwing skill you prefere, even rebound works there.
You may want to use switch with sword and shield to move around.
As for build you need max block, around 300k defense and near 50% dr from items.

Is stampede considered a cast?

[aerial]

Weapon throw attack.

Yep, was just gonna say, stampede is shite if you have bad gear

I feel like more barbs are better off starting as summoner and semi gearing an act 5 merc. Once they knock off a lot of the charms and find some shrines, you can start preparing a decent stampede barb. Summoner allows you to destroy nilhathek allowing you to find some decent SUs to trade or use with reasonable luck and if you don't find shit, you have sigs and a lot of arcane crystals ready for future use.

I started as common melee with unique axe that gives frost nova proc. Started to strugle at the end of terror. Switched to throw barb since rare throw axe droped and i had a dex shrine. No useful procs besides deadfall belt - still way better than melee.

Yeah and overkill destroys Nihlathak too. Is that a good place to farm SUs?

[Prime_Evil]

Stampede op with tons of %ar

Melee gets good with the right gear later
