Whirlwind IK-Barb Build

I've just done an IK-Barb and i hat problems finding a good build for him, so I decided to do it my self!

The sucky thing about this build is that you can't do anything untill you're lvl 76, but other than that it's a fun and well killing build.

I've got an concentrade sword barb which is pretty good, but SOO slow and boring, therefore I've made my self this barb, it's a fun PvM char. Haven't testet it in PvP yet(Please PM me if you know how it is in PvP)!

Stats

QUOTE
Strengt: 167. If any of you stuff has less than perfect + strengt then you should add this, else you can't use you equip!

Dexterity: Put some for the attack rating. As you got no shield you don't need the block so it's pretty low. I used 73.

Vitality: Put the rest of your points in here!

Energy: Base


Skills

QUOTE
WW: 20
Concentrade / Bezerk: A few(see comment)
Shout: 20
BO: 20
BC: 1
Iron Skin: A few(see comment)
Mace mas: 20
Nat res: A few(see comment)
Increased Stamina: 1
Increased Speed: 1

Comment: Depending on your charms etc you should put more or less in Nat res. Use the point(s) in Nat res when you got all the equip on, calculating your res. Next you need to choose your second attack. Concentrade has a higher dam, if you run into a phys immune Bezerk is pretty nice! Put the rest of your points into this attack and Iron skin(to reach a high def).

Other than this Small charms with life and res is always nice to keep the missing res up and get some extra life. Skillers are great to.

Cheap Build:

The only things in this build that isn't cheap is BulK ring and Anni. You can use Cathans instead of BulK and you can go without the anni(just remember to add some ekstra str).

Final comment:

I've done alot of thinking if this build needs more dex, therefore feel free to "ask" for more, but please bring in calculations and the likes!! Please post any suggestions and I'll add it(got it in word) and once enough good suggestions is added I'll post a new one!

PS: Sorry for my bad english

If you need more dext, then just use Ravenfrost, as that still works ok with dext, ar, tiny bit of mana (still get like 10%mana leech from set). Or if not then ditch highlords and og either 2*angelic rings + amu or angelic ring + amu + raven/bul . Also nice job on making a guide for less rich people, would also be useful to give advise on people for kind of life/damage/def/ar they can get with this and what to put in sockets (Shael/Shael or Shael/Eth or 2*perf Skulls/Amn's ???) and maybe fhr table to show whether they should stick shaels in helm or not.

I've seen one rich guy's IK barb, was insane and cheap ones still do ok in pvm and funny to see in pvp

What do you mean?

@paulak2:

I will think of a way putting this in to the guide - how do you like it? As a end note or at the items?

PS: I suck at tables :S

Why would you need max block with a two handed weapon?
