Damn shits cheap. Fully geared counting gems for 130k.

Key points here are 44% crit, and more importantly 49 max Disc, allowing you to stay in SS/Gloom foreva. 40k dps without SS. I was even able to get a perfectly reasonable 21k health. This build can easily beat inferno without too much frustration, just make sure you kite and spam gloom.


How far did you get?

Even though it's all theoretical, it's definitely possible to beat inferno with those stats. Right now, I'm farming Act3 Cyndaea and Azmodan with 120 AR (190 Physical Resist), 63k DPS and 27k HP. My lowish stats is because I'm trying to increase my MF (MF on good gear is very expensive).

You'll need to skip the occassional mobs (Phase Beasts), or kill them by attrition (res and nuke). When 1.04 hits, where mobs don't heal-to-full anymore, it'll be 100% viable.

Thats a hefty amount to pay for a chest ~.~ Especially since the new patch is coming soon and a legendary could be better

I've already looked through the new chests (see http://www.d3lexicon.com/legendary and http://www.d3lexicon.com/set ) that have been leaked so far (and this assumes the leaks are correct, which I think they are). The only good legendary chest for me (barb) would be tyrael's might. However, I would have to trade 250+ vitality (300 max on chest) for 12% ms, which isn't a good trade since I have sprint. As for set pieces, the best for a barb would be IK's chest. Based on the new stats, I'm not exactly sure what the max roll on str would be. There seems to be two separate rolls on str, 170-200 or 90-100 and another for 30-100. So, potentially, it could have 300 str, although I'm not sure if I'm reading this right. Unfortunately, it can only roll 1 additional random property, the best being additional sockets since it only has 1 natural socket. An IK chest could be better than my current one, but it would cost well over 300-500 mill. since the 2set bonus is pretty good and people would charge a large premium for this.

Regardless, I think a got a good deal. I've been following chest pieces every day for the past month or so and I haven't seen very many like mine for less than 200-500 mil, so I don't think I'll lose money if I resell it. Despite this, my biggest purchase prior to this was 20 mill, so I'm still not really sure if it was a good idea ><

datamined socket #'s are wrong. the set chests have 3 slots

so it's pretty easy for that chest to beat yours.

Apart from the fact that the faster your movement speed, the easier and quicker you can generate tornadoes from sprint :/

Are you sure? I haven't seen anyone mention the sockets being wrong. There's another site that also datamined the data for the IK chest (http://www.diablofans.com/topic/65837-patch-104-datamined-tooltips/) and it doesn't have the extra roll on str and vit, so I don't actually know if it can have more than 300 str. Regardless, I do not think an IK chest that has better stats than mine will be listed for less than 200 mill. unless someone was looking to sell it really quickly.

I should have clarified but I'm building for PvP, not farming. Double WW will be absolutely terrible for PvP because no competent ranged class will let you run around him dropping tornadoes for you to constantly regenerate fury and use WW. Sprint, especially with the group sprint rune, will be useful because barbs will need some kind of gap closer. Leap has too long of an animation to be useful and I don't know if the aoe for the stun on leap is large enough to actually catch ranged classes. Ancient spear could be good if you are going for a weapon throw build, which might be viable for PvP since there are several new items that synergize well with this build. The animation of furious charge is way too long for it to be viable as a gap closer. Threatening shout with the taunt rune might work but I'm not sure if the range is long enough. Thus, I think sprint will work best as a gap closer. An additional 12%ms would definitely be useful but I would be sacrificing too much health for it.

Thats a beastly chest. Seems like a great buy, and if the resale value holds up then all is good!

oh I just killed siege and ghom and dicked around in A3-4 a bit, dont care enough to actually play through the whole game but its definitely enough stats to do it, and not even be hard. You can look up a vid of a guy beating inferno with only 2 elite skips with way less hp/dps (he had like 8k hp and 30kdps).

In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Can anyone give me advice on affordable upgrades?

I've been looking around and I feel like i've hit the wall between "good but fair priced gear" and "shit's too damn expensive gear"

you are giving away too much dex for res and vit on a few pieces of gear, bracer and belt especially.

you can upgrade your bow gem to an 80% for a couple million.

you can find a better quiver for a few hundred k, just search for 7% crit or 6% instead of 7.5%

Thanks for the advice, just went up about 3.5k dps and hp for dropping a bit of resists.

Hey I can't seem to login on the D3 forums .

How are people still posting on D3 forums (I refresh and people are still posting).

When I click login, the login box never loads (it was fine before).

Also, when I try to login without scripts on (to get to the login page) it says there is maint on the site.
