Hi Everyone,

Some of you might remember me from back in the day when I use to host a free advice thread in here for barbs! Well guess what? I'm back! After taking a long break due to RL shit, I just couldn't resist the temptation of coming back for PvP. For the past couple of months, I have been doing some intense Theory Crafting my good friend MannerCookie (you should all know/seen his videos, if you haven't you'll be missing out), Manner and I always love to bump heads when it comes to theorycrafting for barbs and we put together what we believe is some of the best starting points for any barb looking to get into PvE (The voice is manners cause obv hes got a sexier voice then I). I am thinking of getting my live stream back up soon as well so I can provide gear checks and show what PvP barb dueling is all about.

Anywho, if you got a question about barbs or u need a gear check just make a post here and I will try and respond as soon as I can. Please note that during weekdays I am in the office for about 15-16 hours so my replys may be slower but please be patient! I won't skip you and will always address questions in the order they come.


Note: I specialize in Barbs so that means ANY STYLE of barb you want, I've probably tested it extensively. Mannercookie and myself did and EXTENSIVE amount of testing during the PTR to ensure the theories we had were alwyays MORE than just theories :).

If your just getting start in PvP, check out some of the videos that Manner and I created below, you'll find it quite informative ;)

For strategy and in game play, refer to manners thread. I started my thread to mainly help people with gear checks cause I know that was always one of the major problems people had from back in the day.


And if your interested in engaging me to do a full gearing service for you, you can PM me or check out this thread:

With 70m, id look into getting a ring with higher cc (4.5%+) and crit dmg with similar wep dmg and str.

If u were to pick up 300m, I would definitely look at upgrade ur weps. Ur MH dmg range is very low. Even though u have higher crit dmg, id much rather trade that in for like a 1k dps wep with lower crit dmg.

PS sweet roll on that ammy :) u mustve been happy t osee that haha

Vouch, although R1ck hasn't been actively streaming, we've discussed gearing and pvp quite extensively

Just like before when we discussed on how to bring you guys the best Taxi/Carries on JSP, now we will provide you guys all u need to know about PVP.

Gear checks and building barbs is this guy's 6th sense.

I would definitely replace that tasker and theo. Try and get some attack speed crit chance Ik gloves. U can get some with high str/vit for relatively cheap cause most ppl got for all res. other than that, just pretty much a bit of tweeking everywhere. Shoulders u usually want like high 70s all res

I was looking at your ear and to be quite honest, you have very very godly gear. The places where you can improve is when u pick up pieces, u wanna get the max life% possible. It makes a HUGE diff. For example, ur BT pants get 12% and also your SS should be a 7% elite reduction. That is the key stat you want to look for. And as for your IK gloves, you would be much better off at ur level of play to go for high stats instead of the all res (i.e. 250+ str and 160+ vit with 10 cc. Hope that helps.

I'll ask here. I'm going to gear up my retired barb for pve mainly paragon leveling. What stats should I aim for on items? and maybe on wep aswell? I have a budget on 50m give and take, can I make a ownage one?
