In D3 barbs tank with life steal, armor and AR. Shields aren't a necessity for tanking. | ||

I'm building a new WW barb to farm with in 1.07, the budget is 200-300m, possibly more if I'm on the cusp of being able to effectively farm an MP higher. The goal is is to farm higher MP for the extra bonus XP in the new patch. What is a reasonable MP to set my sights on with that budget? 3? 4? I know it's tough to say, because crafting will change a lot of things. Aside from the gear budget, I have enough mats to make 200 amus and 200 gloves, i may try making some shoulders as well. GG VWs are just so damn overpriced. Lets just say 250M for everything but gloves/amu. My question for you all, is: What stat goals should I have in mind when putting this toon together, and what MP will that handle well? How much cc/cd/ias/str/ar etc. Go ahead and crush my dreams if I'm being delusional about how far my budget will go  | ||

http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Turinturamba-2768/hero/9100098 Gear without gems cost me ~260 million with bracers, right ring and mainhand selffound. You can get gear pretty cheap if you don't go for the cookie cutter items that everyone wants (IK set, echoing fury, good lacunis). As for offensive stats crit damage and strength is not that important. You need pretty high attackspeed/crit chance to keep wrath of the berserker up for the whole run. Defensive stats are not that important as long as you don't get 1-2 shotted. With whirlwind and enough lifeleech you basically heal to full every tick. Just to give you an idea I can solo mp7 ubers with my pitiful +270 allres and roughly 50k hp, although Magdha is tricky. | ||

Playin mp7 with 60k life 150k dps and 69,2% damage reduction got 7,8% LS and like 400 loh only way is to get better damage reduction. In next patch you will be able to see when they are reflecting and simply not hit when they do | ||

Capable of doing MP5-6 easily after swap to WotB and Bloodthirst, with current skill setup cuts through MP3 (and with reflect changes should do well on MP4) like hot knife through butter. real sheet dps is 144k with SoJ on. | ||

I do mp7 without much of a problem, i can even do mp10 if im patient, although its obviously rly slow then. http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/DiaBoLuS-2643/hero/19312 u can build this for ~35 million... €: i notice that many ppl with about 200-300 million dont manage to go over 150k dps, i find this to be absolutly hilarious. they seem to prefer a 4,5% crit ring over a 3,5% crit ring with +40-60 dmg for example, while the second ring gives u about 4k more dps. Or they spend a shitton of gold for 20% crit damage added to the ring as well, while they could get 100 more STR instead, which is insanly much better. Be smart when buying stuff, Crit, attackspeed and critdamage are very nice, but remember that STR and pure DMG are just as good or even better to up your damage - and much cheaper. Also, many ppl seem to underestimate LoH as an defensive attribute. Dont know why that is. | ||

Playin mp7 with 60k life 150k dps and 69,2% damage reduction got 7,8% LS and like 400 loh RD elites are affected by two different bugs... First of all RD minions reflects a lot more damage than expected (like, i get 3 shotted at mp5 with 700k crits), so focus fire the leader first and/or kill some white mobs while in the fight. Then there is the health link / life steal bug, where your damage is split between each elite but you get back the life stolen only from the elite you hit directly (or something like that). You can prevent this with LOH instead of LS, so you should be fine (I got 5.9%ls and 460loh from BT's pants and that's enough even with 400k+ dps). It is well known since 1.05 but nothing has changed so far; even worse, Blizzard's CM initially stated that they weren't aware of any problem with RD. I bet that the new RD mechanics in 1.07 won't solve the bugs. | ||

Also, as for other items, plenty of them have affixes that dont add to your sheet dps but increase your overall damage done, eg. extra damage vs elites or cold damage (that slows monsters down -> causes them to take more tornado ticks AND reduces the impact that fear effect from EF has on your overall damage done). For instance, switching from Unity to SoJ causes me to drop from 169k unbuffed to 'hilarous' 144k, but at the same time increases my kill count / hour by around 10-15%. | ||

My Barb right now is naked, Level 60+37 and has 0 Gold - how would I go about getting back the quickest? Naked Normal farming? PayPal, alas, isn't an option right now. | ||

Total so far: 72M I have some of the core pieces squared away, but I'm not totally happy with a few. I'm well below budget atm, but I'm playing it safe not spending too much on gear that I'm not experienced in trading. Ignore amu/rings. Rings (rare and HF) are from my CM wiz, amu is a random MF piece i had laying around in the stash. I plan on crafting Amu/Glove/Shoulder, crafted bracer would also be nice, but I may end up needing the move speed from a Lacuni in that slot as Inna's are just so weak in every other regard. Kind of regretting selling my 5.5CC/80vit lacunis in fear of crafted bracer supremacy, but if anything ill just buy back something similar for cheaper after 1.07. ARMOR- IK Chest - 7.9m cookie cutter IK I know... IK belt - 6m Str/Vit + Bash % IK boot - 2.5m meh, with IK chest + boots i get the AR bonus, maybe something better could be here? Firewalkers? Need to keep MS here. Maybe I should have got more STR here. Rare str/vit pants - 5.5m These will probably lose all value when 1.07 hits but wth Mempo str/vit - 16m Okok people don't like mempos. I like the IAS and %life and should have enough crit elsewhere. I refuse to use inna's for IAS xD WEAPONS- rare mainhand - 30m. Doesn't have CD, but str/vit sock and high weap dmg. Might have been a bad move price wise, but should be pretty nice for tornado ticks. EF oh - 4m Str would be nice here isntead of Int, but i'd be looking at dropping another 30m here. | ||

Because an IK belt without Vit does not have the same stats as an IK belt with Vit. Lacunis with Vit are vastly more expensive than those without. | ||

Especially with the craftable items you'll have a good chance to get 100+vit on your amu. | ||
