Yeah I'd buy a better shield but even without it you have more than enough for act 2

Hey guys, I'm starting to save a bit of money and I've been thinking that I'd prefer playing a DPS barb like some I've seen in some videos. Though I don't really know what items i should work on getting. If someone could point me to some proven sick dps builds and the gear I should work on getting for it?

I've seen a dual wield throwing build, but it seems so risky. And I've heard about seismic slam. That's about it.

apparently this build is viable at least through A2 Inferno although I don't see why it won't be viable up through A3/4

E-Sports is competitive video gaming with a spectator fan base. Do not take the word "Sports" literally.

So what about arcane enchant, molten, fire chain, frozen, or I dunno every other ability in the world?

Oh yeah DPS build?

Try Seismic Slam with Battle Rage with the crit rune, at least 40% crit chance(axes help), and plenty of lifesteal and aspd. You can play semi-ranged with this. Vs Elites you use WOTB with Slaughter and Frenzy generally because it scales with insane crit chance and your aim is to instagib the elite during the 15 seconds.

What crazy dps items should I be going for first? I'm trying to resist buying good pieces to get the best first.

Meh, I saw a 22% block stormshield with 69 allres and 58 vitality so I decided to buy it as it was only 3.2mil, I guess I'll just hold onto this until I need a better one.

Brand new barb in infernro. I only have 1 mil. is there any way to make him viable with 1 mil? What items should I get? Is a badly rolled string of ears worth it (only 10% reduction for example)?

String of Ears for 200-400k, hopefully at least 12% melee reduction

Kymbo for 200k, with over 280 life on hit preferably

Weapon with socket or Life on hit with the rest of the money, preferably over 500 life on hit and over 700 DPS but it's not a huge deal.

I found a 2handed barb stream yesterday which confirmed my suspicions.
You don't need allres through the roof if you go for dps build. In fact it restricts your item choises.
Here are his stats/items.+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]



As you can see he can farm effectively act3/4 with only 500-600 allres. The main attribute he's going for is attack speed.
He also has a ton of hp.
That's it. xD

Honestly he'd be better off with less hp, more armor, more resistances and lifesteal/life on hit

THEORYCRAFT:

Thorns


Very simple. There's numerous items with like 1500+ Thorns damage that are rather cheap as well.

The idea: Just buy items with a lot of +vit and +all resist and 1500+ Thorns, you should end up with well over 10k Thorns, perhaps even nearing 15k. Rings and amulets naturally with same stats as well.

Weapon with a lot of life on hit, dmg doesn't even matter at all. You'll be dealing like 20-30k DPS to everything around you while built full tank



Thoughts?
