frenzy sucks really hard, don't use it.

replace botd by a 2nd grief, it's better no matter what you think
both of your grief PBs should have as close as 400dmg as you can afford, any ias is fine you already have too much

replace dungo by SoE

replace dracs by LoH

replace arreat by Guillaume

replace BK by a rare/craft ring that has mana leech (cuz you need it somewhere) with some bonuses like ar/str/dex/fcr/LL/res

replace merc by a2 might Reaper

You can use 2x Wiz on swap to tele (reaching 105fcr if you have 10fcr on ring)

if you want to upgrade your build after that, you need a good inventory of +max/ar/life charms


Agreed so hard. Frenzy is such a meme and a noob trap. It moves fast and that's really all it has going for it... And teleporting is still faster in 90% of the maps in the game.

Currently running greif and last wish, a5 bash merc with the new amp sword eth dread fang with a protector jewel. No issue p8 tz and can kill almost every herold even the thorns one if you throw a grim ward down and seperate them from their pack.

Tried a few combos like, dual greif on me and a frenzy merc with greif and last wish and even azure wraith for undead, Life tap proc helps a lot too but without amp killin is much slower.

Currently lvl 96 from all tz ranked top 50 this was my third char this ladder. Hella fun two hotos on swap for tp and fast fork

my current pvm barb is a double stormlash (double ber'd) gface with 15ias/AR, highlords, dracs, gores, dungos,enigma raven frost . Lightning sunder and phys sunder. has 103 crushing blow in each hand gets highest attack break point I use infinity merc for the static field and lowers monster def. It mauls everything. However can get overwhelmed from time to time if dracs don't proc in dealing with high player count herald of frights.

people that say frenzy sucks just arent using it correctly.

frenzy is turbo-ass

TLDR

frenzy is very bad - 1 point in ww is more dps then frenzy
act 5 merc is bad
last wish is bad
