Hey, I've been thinking about building a 'bo baba' - no idea if this build will actually work, but I really want to give it a try. I want a big life pool. I've been fortuned to collect good/decent items for this:


I should have a decent baba ammy and -15% req jewels on NL.
What do you suggest in terms of the itemization and the build itself? Any good match-ups? Any tips are welcome.

tell me a little more about your build like what's your plans for skills and stats and ideal items because from what I see you useing really high str required items on a build you would normally want as little stats invested into str as possible

yeah, armors are not ideal because Charsi's been stingy with me. I need a cookie-cutter build that uses smt better than Peace. If an AA with 80 life and ed eats up too much strength, a 3 socket armor with 80 life should do the trick. The plan is to max out Battle Orders and Increased Speed, then put one point each in Bash, Leap, Stun, Leap Attack, Concentrate, and Whirlwind, as well as Increased Stamina, Iron Skin, Natural Resist, and the rest in Axe Mastery for 15/3 6os Naga with dmg jewels.

honestly i think your best bet would be to use a 3os 80life mage plate or light plate and WW barbs are pretty much the only viable build unless u are going pure melee and you would be a conc barb

is there a good way to utilize bash charges?

only charge thats really used on a barb would be sac for lvl 9 and conc for lvl 18

well, my helm is not what I thought it was.

it's still a 4bo 60life 2os it's honestly not bad at all

barb has 2x the life of basically any other LLD.

you'll have 3x the life, but 50% the dmg of a normal barb. dont worry about your life pool, or at least dont sacrifice much if any dmg to gain more life.
