IS it just me or they literally ignored all the current C tier builds (like ww and hota) and instead just made some f tier builds into d tier builds, or am i missing something?

Literally WW is the only good AOE build and it does shit damage with no buffs, HOTA still 90% less damage and not viable end end game compared to every other class.

Surely you mean barn?

Barn is bad, barn no buff, owner lie.

No sure if im more let down about the season nerfs or the lack of them understanding the fundamental issue of the barb, instead they left every other class S tier and gave them more options and let barb have a couple more F tier builds. Its like they didn't even try to play the character before updating it.

barb is fine, before the patch alkaizer one hit every one in pvp. after the patch alkaizer still one shoting most ppl in pvp

Barn jokes aside you’re definitely right. They don’t seem to understand even the basic aspects of how to balance a game if they want people to continue to play it

No one cares about PVP, literally less than 5% of player base engages in pvp on regular basis. I don't even think the developers even acknowledge that it exists so Rogue will always be 10x ahead of the pack in every build.

I have every class near 100 with almost BIS setups - Barb is the slowest by like triple than the next worst class (sorc close cuz deaths), it does no good aoe damage, it has to melee and damage taken at higher tiers cant be blocked. Only class to not smoke lillith quickly, and cant kill bosses in high nm dung. Difference is, sorc got some decent love here, and barb got literally almost zero meaningful buffs and uniques are all still trash.

I played barb s1 and ONLY stuck with it because they promised buffs, but it will have zero impact and wasted entire S1, not returning to game for sure, they showed their horrible game developing skills today and weeks ago.
