Hi guys!

Few years ago I followed a nice throw barb WT here and I decided to try out this build myself one day.
The time has come!

Old school, 1.14d with Plugy addon.

Rules:
Hardcore (S&E allowed)
/p8 for progression or "main play". Can be lowered for Countess and boss reruns
1.14d with Plugy
Throwbarb till death or until defeating Hell Baal


Goals
Reach at least Hell with this build.

Actually Rozene is a big asset:


We've fought our way down to Andy..


..and with the help of antidote potions, it was only a matter of time before she succumbed. I'm moving on to Act II.

Cool. The throwbarb is a very powerful build. Gonna be fun to see if you find any good throwing weapons later on. I've usually always found some during a ladder season with other characters and builds, and always wanted to test them out.

One thing i always underestimate is the replenish quantity modifier. Having that makes everything easier. Also, the weighing up of using knives, which has a lot more quantity, over throwing weapons with less quantity, but higher damage, is always a hard choice to make. Knives can do decent damage. But spears deal a lot.

Perhaps late game it is powerful, I dont know, I'll take your words on that, but now I feel I do no dmg at all :D Thanks for the tips.

Somehow I totally forgot to take more pictures in Act II :blink:




Drank a healthy amount of liquid before the fight :D

This is kind of annoying. Arrows and bolts have more quantity why can't throw weapons have more as well?


Using the armor:


Okay.. this is done:
