Physical Throw Barb - A True Warmonger's Guide

hey. wondering if this guide still works?

This build is VERY ANNOYING because of the delay of both Stampede and Overkill. Especially when bossing.

any tips for starting? i was struggling so hard with ied throwing axe (couldnt get phys one)

Starting where?

What is the best sleep trophy for this build? I'm most tempted at Legacy of Blood for the 20% leech and 25 all attr., but wanna know if there's any better choice?

. Knight's Grace giving Phys Resist, and an on-strike proc, but Wind Runner giving more flat-damage, easier to get a good base for corruption.

Wind Runner cannot be corrupted, as I found out. Must have something to do with fact that it is no-jewel runeword.

I was able to corrupt them all the time, maybe something was changed

I am pretty sure, the reason why you have not been able to corrupt your Windrunners, was creating them in non sacred bases.
Runewords can only be corrupted if created in sacred bases.

I know, and my greaves are sacred. Must be some sort of bug, then.
