The Sprinter


Content:
Skills
Atributes
Items
Hireling
Tactic


Skills:
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/barbarian#hUPQki!ZYe!ZZcbcY


Explanation:
-Whirlwind with Hurricane is with Sprint our main attack, we are using the Hurricane rune for the normal movementspeed which allows us to create more whirl with Sprint and rune like the wind.
-Sprint with run like the wind will allow us to get the fury for Whirlwind + adds some nice dps + adds movement speed
-Wrath of the Berserker with Thrive on Chaos , obviuosly gives us great bonuses as 10%crit chance 25%ias etc + with this rune youre able to get an elite pack/boss down without losing the Wrath!
-Overpower with Crushing Advance will heal our barb in combat the more mobs the better, be aware of enemies that deal a great amount of dmg at once! can be changed to leap but i recomence op.
-War Cry with Impunity for fury and resistance/def.
-Battke Rage with Into the Fray for our fury generation.
-Ruthless for extra crit chance/dmg
-Weapons Master for extra crit chance
-Superstition for less elemental damage taken and fury generation

Atributes:
Life on hit is one of the most important stat for the Sprinter Barbarian, each whirl hit that often that you can get healed by attacking/running away from enemies.
Because of that a LOH value of 1k+ is necesary for this build.
Because of the high LOH and hit chance your barb will not need like a tank barb high resistance & block at all.
Diablo on Inferno mode is beatable with 38%crit chance/600ar/40k life/15k dps/6k armor/1,2k loh

Items:
Out of the Skill and atribute setup the following results:
CRIT/ LOH > RES > LIFE > DEF
One Weapon should be a Mace/Axe for the extra crit chance given by Weapons Master.
Example (my current main hand weapon):

27max dmg
184-364 lightning dmg
463 loh
cir dmg increased by 59%

To beat act 3 and 4 without having trouble with the most elite packs you'll need the following stats out of your gear:
15-20k dps
38-45% crit chance
200% crit damage
1.2k loh
600-800 all resistance
40-50k life
6-8k armor

Hireling:
Enchantres with the def/attack speed bonus is the most viable hireling for barb.

Tactic:
1. shout war cry
2. shout battle rage
3. get with Superstition enough fury to do a single sprint
4. Wait until your fury is high enough to whirl and sprint into a group of enemies
5. Cast Overpower / wrath if elite pack
6. Repeat 4 all the time and only whirl with Sprint!

Invulnerable Minions/Shielder elite pack:
If you see such a pack or a group of shielder sprint kite them into a huge group of enemies and try whirling em down in there repeat this until they are dead.
Shielder are way easier than invulnerable minions!

Act Boss fights:
Butcher - sprint around him to gain fury whirl in a circle with sprint around him dodge or overpower the fire on the floor.
Belial - sprint and whirl him up and down the platform + dodge his green circles.
Amodan - sprint around him to gain fury whirl in a circle with sprint around him, if he does his black circles dodge them and repeat step before.
Diablo - sprint around him to gain fury whirl in a circle with sprint around him, if he does his fire use overpower and whirl like nothing happened be aware of the shadow clone, it deals more damage than diablo. Doding his cages is no problem with whirlwind and sprint.

gonna add more details in another version of this guide
Can't add a video since my internet connection sucks hard :/
Here are my current stats, cleared inferno and did every single boss with 5th stack

i rly dont get why u have overpower instead of frenzy ?

how much time are u wasting waiting on superstition to fill ur fury up ?

no fury generate, + u lose 15 % dmg. if u do it cause u need the heal get stronger def items or get more loh, if ur doing it for the small dmg why not gain 15 % dmg on ur nados and ww instead


34 % crit, using a spear atm so doesnt have the 10 % bonus
250 % crit dmg
37 k life
5k armor
1100 loh
500@
dps 40k+ with frenzy charged, 60k+ with beserk on, in a1 i 2-3 hit some elites and most gobs
250 mf 5x valor

because overpower heals, i get healed with op when diablo does his fire circle or ghom does his poison clouds.
If you surrive these without using op np use frenzy or leap or what ever you want ;) , but for a cheap build op is very useful.

Don't like the fact you cant hit w/o having fury.
You need imo a primary skill that give you fury/ or to finish some kiting mobs.

Is superstition better than Tough As Nails or Nerves of Steel?

well it gives you a chance to gain 3 fury if you got hit by a elemental attack, which makes it very viable + it allows you to have some lower resistance so i'd say in this build:
Superstition > Nerves of Steel > Though as Nails
