you can't spawn a reasonable number of heralds in P1 barb or not though, you're going to have to farm P8 or else you're killing 50+ uniques average between each herald

I’ve noticed Harolds seem to spawn much more frequently in “hot” games, often with far more than 50 uniques per Harold spawn. That said, I’m not just targeting Latent charms. I’m also farming strong uniques, rares, charms, and gold for gambling.

Because of that, I prefer staying in P1 while horking for P7 drops. It avoids the hassle of coordinating with others, which usually leads to downtime and split loot. This way I can farm efficiently and run whatever I want, whenever I want.

okay thanks, so when hunting for high unique its better to go MF meph/dia or CS runs as warlocK?
what is the find item barb then used for? seems quite useless tbh

or can u farm any area ( Terrorzones ) as a hork barb? but it needs different gear then?


Find item is for uniques and champs.
A zerk barb will first do whichever Warcry that fears off enemies except uniques, kill the unique, hork, and go to the next one.
He is a P1 build, built for uniques and champs. Not bosses.
Very far from useless.
Previous to TZ the Holy Grail WR was done by Enpherno, on Zerk.
With about 800 MF or so, 105 BP on swap, and a second chance at drops on hork, this seems pretty unbeatable and very far from useless.

Theres been some pub games of tz 96 split mf runs on americas each day with 8 players mostly peaving each other alone, and I've pk'd a few people trying to farm the unsharded acts early when they didnt get the message. Have seen almost nobody try to poach heralds so far even with the message, or at least not fast enough. I think a barb would be in real trouble both trying to kill p8 t5 herald and doing it fast enough that someone in a pub might show up, and in a pub they won't share bodies for you to hork so you only get your own. Thats why horker really lends itself to the multi p8 setup with 1 warlock 1 barb 6 fillers

I’ll stick to P1 an hork for MF/GF/latent hunt alone.

Watch some of my videos there’s a lot of information there. I haven’t yet made a video about my ladder hork barb. If you want to farm TZ on ladder, you’re going to need grief and enigma. If not stick to Trav.
