First of all:
Congratulation to that kill! Even if you figured a build that might do it - it needs dedication and endurance in gearing it.

Besides the loss of Stance dance ability - Barb was buffed this Patch cause Stances are able to be prebuffed. So do not talk about nerfs when there aren't any.
especially when facing the fact that EWD was the major part of wdm damage squish - prebuffing Wolf Stance is a big advantage in endgame.

I don't think Barb will get nerfed next seasons in terms of itemization or skills (besides poison mechanics). Looking at this vid it is enough to cap Tantrum dura to make stacking it not possibly OP anymore.

Before any lovers or haters will go crazy onto my comment: I respect t4v for the stuff he does and he is clearly a skilled player but Deimoss is designed to not be beaten by a single char on 100% - so something will be changed
Vids like this do not cause nerfs - they cause the will to find something like balance someday.

All the Best!

I appreciate your comment ... but Wolf Stance prebuff just cover around 3/4 of Shamanic Trance bonus EWD. If you compare
this combo (Bear Stance + Shamanic trance vs Wolf stance(prebuff) + useless points) you will understand what I am talking about

yeah, only a small line in 1.4 Patch Notes is implying that - at least for me.

Reduced the stats gap on the reward charm between 5/6 and 6/6 difficulty, as 6/6 will now be balanced for party play

It was pretty obvious that tantrum will be able to do deimoss solo since you can stack it on his feet , now i am trying to keep barb alive bcz the prebuff is not an easy thing to do , you have to pay few k tg for gear which most can do but swaping 20 items everytime to prebuff i dont see many would do that , it is a part of a player that tryhard , a prebuffed wolf stance brings around 400% more ewd for a total of 1k , barb cant get more than 1.8k-2k ewd , since you have to add points in vitality otherwise you will die from 1 nova vs deimoss , paladin and necro can get 2k+ ewd without any prebuff , and keep in mind that barb will have 50k def when other classes have bigger ewd and 500k+ defence , i understand if they will change something to tantrum but nerfing barb would be overkill.

Interesting choice to make the hardest boss in the game stationary and without teleport when struck. I understand the fact that it would make his skills very hard to read and react to, but still. Tantrum have always been amazing against immobile targets. Nerfing barb himself would be dumb at this point.

Congratulations for making it this far. Past lvl 12 I get crushed by lack of resistances/not min-maxing everything.
