5747 Armor 27k HP <30 Resists I know, my stats are terrible for Inferno. And in general, really. Where should I be farming? I got partially into Act 1 but it was brutal, and I know I'm going to get wrecked by the first even slightly difficult elite group | ||

Doing that can make you quite a bit of gold, which will let you work toward higher resists (probably your biggest priority atm). | ||

Starting at the first Sin tower and working my way down into Azmodan? | ||

The idea is that you should get 5 stacks right before Cydaea if you're lucky, and definitely when you hit Azmodan, guaranteeing reasonable drops from them.

Currently on the way to the Skeleton King, though I might try and farm the Cemetery some. If anything, I just want to get a few more attempts on rare packs just so I can try and figure out a good skill setup that works for me because I know my gear is where it's supposed to be. Had to skip rares my first run through the cemetery, but that's because I was hitting stuff like Fast Extra Health Frozen Fire Chains. EDIT: Is there a place to buy Mythic HP Potions I'm unaware of? I keep having to go back to A4 Hell to get them, and it's irritating, to say the least. | ||

This brings me to my question: can anyone think of a slick way to generate more fury than this without venturing into melee combat? The best thing I've been able to come up with so far is Ground Stomp -> Bash with the extra fury rune and run when they come out of stun. But again, the whole point was to see if you could avoid meleeing at all. | ||

I have to say, I feel like the Barbarian actually ended up being the closest to Blizzard's design goal with skills of having skill build diversity. With everything in Inferno being so insane, everyone's trying a lot of different things and find very different builds that work for them (builds are quite different among the Inferno players in this thread, though they do have some common points--and in turn those are very different from the builds used to clear Diablo), particularly as Barb doesn't have something super-OP to fall back on, and so has room to try lots of different things. Inferno's a bitch, but I feel like Blizzard intended for it to be this hard for everyone to clear, and Barb ended up being the only one to be that way because we didn't have some poorly thought-out mechanic to exploit. | ||

Guess they didn't actually test the classes on inferno, because they struggled to get D3 out so fast... OH WAIT.. | ||

I'm overflowing on items here, not sure is anything has any actual value. A safe bet is always just to filter your AH search to similar items, and seeing what people are willing to pay for them (if you're trying to sell pre-60 items, don't forget to put the ilvl in the search as well). It's slow at first, but after a while you get a sense for what's profitable and what isn't. | ||

Passives: Brawler / Superstition / Nerves of Steel Skills: L - Frenzy / Sidearm R - Charge / Dreadnought 1 - Earthquake / (the one from the very right) 2 - Wrath of the Berserker / Insanity 3 - Revenge / Provocation 4 - War Cry / Impunity Stats: 1.2k~ Str 100~ Dex 100~ Int 1.1k~ Vit 48.5k HP 8.9k DPS (630dps Blue spear with 16% Atk spd incr) Resistance (w/ Impunity): Nearly all 300 I still have 4 pieces that needs replacing, chest/bracer/helm/shield. After which I predict I'll have around 400 resistances in all and 450 in the main ones (definitely fire/arcane). It's quite handy to have a couple mates in A2 farm, as they'll be able to help you gear up. For the most part though, I've completely had to rely on SK for farming for gold because the loot I get is never the ones I ever need... For Barbies that have no dps, invest in a GOOD 1-hander with high DPS as it will pretty much boost your chances in killing rare/blue packs. A shield should have ideally 15-20% block with either life % or all-resistances. Now, just a question. Other than SK, what are other good places to farm in A1? I was thinking Haedrig's wife, but I heard she was hotfixed due to some guy having 240% MF and farming her because she dropped set pieces. | ||

Guess they didn't actually test the classes on inferno, because they struggled to get D3 out so fast... OH WAIT.. yep. frustrating is an understatement. well my sorc is lvl 30 already... :> other then what would you focus on now my stats: 52k hp ~70% armor (with shout) 300-400 on resistances (with shout) ~11k dps build: wrenching stomp revenge with the 30% chance rune warcry with 50% resistance buff leap with iron impact or stun frenzy+sidearm seismic slam with +dmg and more knockback passives: 20% less non phys dmg, 25% armor and 50% less dmg under 20%hp act1 is outside of really stupid elite groups quite easy. act2 im few quests in . can kill some elite packs , usually die a bit tho. and quite some are plain impossible (vampiric molten firechain wasps...). plus big white mob groups sometimes spike me to death. should i just farm act 1 ?(since im totally broke right now) any tips about that? you think i can get a bit deeper in act2 ? and i guess prime goal is to stack up resistances more? p.s. im still running with a 2hander. i plain refuse to use a shield. | ||

I think if you get lucky on SK you can still make some money since he drop alot of resist gears but nothing as much as an Wizard. Like 10 good items from SK = 1 good item in ACT 4 -_-. With Brawler passive + WoTB my DPS going up for 20K lol, never used Brawler till I notice there are tons of minion in SK fight, that 30% dps increase is just too good to pass. | ||

You are banking on a random roll that is often just crap while money get's you items exactly that you need. The need to salvage a ton of items, find recipes and pay as well makes artisans terrible. Maybe the jeweler is somewhat useful for merging your bad gems into better ones (which don't drop I think) but the blacksmith just sucks | ||

Just pain supression instead of earthquake and leap instead of charge. I am in hell end of act 2. But damn these defensive builds are so boring. I just stand there, hold my left mouse button down and everything dies. If it gets a little tougher I activate pain supression and berserker, and I can still just stand there auto attacking while everything dies. Seeing how stupidly easy the game now is at inferno with this build, I really cant understand that some people are complaining about barbarian in inferno. I guess every other class has to do more to beat enemies at that level.. | ||

Most Barb @ Inferno right now was tearing Hell apart, but can't handle the most simple rare pack when they came to Inferno. Most die on white mobs on the first quest if they don't careful. If you don't like standing there smashing monsters why you roll a Barb? If a Barb don't stand and hit what will he do? Run around throwing axes? | ||
