A lot of players are saying Rend is almost completely useless. So with that being said, are more barb players sticking with Hota or WW? I am a Ww barb myself and can say I have never seen a barb so squishy, and resource being drained almost completely in less than a second. No survivability now, little to no damage, and being level 40 is like being level 1 fighting monsters 10 levels higher than you on WT1.

It’s extremely frustrating to know that many players wanted to play a barb during season release to find out they are completely weak, and almost useless until their level 70+.

They say the best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago… Second best time is now….

Probably just have to commit to a built you enjoy and make it as good as possible? WW came out of the patch with least amount overall nerfs compared to HOTA but HOTA is still great? Altogether Barb is not looking great. But they promised buffs for 1.1.1?

That’s a pretty good analogy lol but yes. I’m going to be THAT GUY that will continue to be miserable with my barb until I can be decent. I’ll make sure I keep log of how my progress is while getting to 100, and how the barb has changed since prior 1.1.0
