Can anyone help me out with my WW barb ?

http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=64073333&f=142

Having trouble in A3 inferno ): I can go through and still kill everything but it either takes me forever or I die on occasion.

My stats are:

16k Dps (19k Buffed)
32k Hp
620 Res
44% Crit Chance
245% Crit Dmg
5367 Def
1134 LoH
5.7% Life Steal

The problem is obvious. To take Act 3 better, try and reach 30k damage unbuff with sword and shield, if dual wield, try get higher than 30k unbuff; maybe like 70k; 7k armour unbuff, 40k life; 800LoH; 700ar unbuff. Your cc, cd and LoH looks ok to me. Problem lies in your damage. What weapon are you using? Let us know your current str too. Also try raise you life higher.

A good ww barb can be expensive, that's true, if you are having problems with ww killing too slowly, which is the fastest attack in this game for barbs, means your stats aren't met the minimum requirement to use this ability yet.

p.s. My tanking abilities can vastly increase if I am converting my barb into Frenzy now, just that the killing speed will also be vastly affected, which I would definately trade killing speed over tanking any day. IF you get Crit items for your Frenzy Barb, and convert it into WW build, you will see what I mean. Try getting 45% cc purely by gears and the skill Ruthless alone. Don't try to depend on Weapon Master to boost Crit Rate, it's waste of skill.
Helm: 4.0%
Amulet: 6.0%
Gloves: 6.0%
Bracers: 4.0%
Rings: 4.0%
Shield: 8%
Ruthless: 5%
Base: 5%

Total = 42% with Rage, = 45%. If can get gears with higher Crit rate, the better. Omit the use of Weapon Master, you still can continue using your favourite Passive with ww Build.

ofc a tank/dps barb with the right items is better, you're immortal or so.
The main advantage of WW barb imo is that it's extremely FAST... 12% ms boots + 20% berseker + 40% sprint and you go trought emenies with WW(Hurricane rune)... it's the best alternative instead of D2 telesorc/enigma imo...

anyway:
16k Dps (19k Buffed) --> ofc too low but isn't the main problem... you're just slowy
32k Hp -> little low, serach for 40k
620 Res -> unbuffed or? you need 800-900res buffed
44% Crit Chance -> very good
245% Crit Dmg -> same opinion of DPS
5367 Def -> little low but doesn't matter so much
1134 LoH -> little low, with 1,5k loh will be easier
5.7% Life Steal -> total useless with your dps.

so -> work on VITA and LOH... then you'll survive and you'll be albe to upgrade your dps

so if i get a shield, what stats should i go for? also how much LOH should i have with a shield

its a ww guide topic ^^ for shield information pm me... sacred shield 29% block 10 crit chance and adds. you dont need more than 700 LoH with shield barb. i have 632 LoH. all acts np.

nice feedback... dps?

i suggest to use 2 weapons because reach loh\stats\cd is easier... but also with shield works fine, you survive better
