I would likely swap your Reaper's Wrath with Custerian Wristguards when rifting/bounties.
It helped my barb go from 250 to 700 Paragon level a little faster. You're at 449. You can always go back.
Truth be told I think you'll swap gear around depending on the situation. Greater Rifts requires your best.
But for now you just need to focus on elevating your paragon level. Get that up a lot higher before anything.

Ya I wondered. I'd like to see exactly what you're working with so I can more accurately advise.
Considering your paragon level and the gear you do have, with the right tweaks, Grifts anywhere in the 30's shouldn't be an issue, just have to make the right adjustments. :)

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/d2jsp-1167/hero/60806257 <- this is the setup I use and I can clear mid40s fairly easily If I ever find my ancient BKs I can do a lot better but I lack in dps atm also take note of my Templar the dagger wyrdwrard are important as well as your gear

This my help for reference as well...

My Non-seasonal Barbie, completed Grift 54, 53's are a success almost every time w'o much issue.

My Season Barbie, working with a lot less as far as gear is concerned but just did a 46 the other night with it. I used, and normally use, Overpower - Killing Spree, but currently it's set on Crushing Advance because I'm gonna try that out for size with my setup. Overpower - Crushing Advance is pretty amazing. Not only does it negate 35% melee damage but it returns it to the monster(s), so it's offensive as well.

Here is my setup. I haven't rerolled to take away resist on gloves because it seems like my resist is getting too low.

Looking much better :)

When you acquire better boots, w' res instead of movement speed, that'll give ya some more wiggle room for dps elsewhere in place of res.
I'd still put CHD on gloves for res. If you think you're shy of res, throw 2x diamonds in your panties.

Then better Reaper's w' element % instead of res.
With element % on your bracers and CHD on your gloves you'll be dishing out a good deal of damage more than you are currently. The faster you kill them the better ;)

I'd put 8% ias in paragon, to hit the breakpoint w' full gogok stacks and in wrath + 15% from obsidian and 8% from para you'll achieve that.

Blood Funnel is nice, but currently only give you about 6k life per crit, not much, and so if your crit is lower you'll get less out of that rune.

I'd switch to lightning for the fury regen, then you can drop either Reaper's or Weapon Master. I'd say keep Reaper's and use Superstition.

I'd drop Rend for Overpower either Killing Spree or Crushing Advance, I'd go with Killing Spree because with CHD on your gloves and another 8% CHC with Overpower you'll do much more damage.

Keep Striding Giant if you feel you need the toughness otherwise go with Insanity.

Remember, it's Softcore, so it's okay to die, but if you're too defensive then you won't deal enough damage. Some rares / elites you might just have to skip.

Hey guys I need some more help improving my barb.

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/kibs-1603/hero/62347424

Also what should ammy should I use.

Is it better to use the one I have? http://i.imgur.com/x2yQV9f.jpg Or use one with socket and reroll it? What should i reroll it? http://i.imgur.com/kYDT0ip.jpg

Thinking about adding goguk gem if I use socketed ammy after reroll. Is that better than what I am using now?

Also what should I reroll on my shoulders? http://i.imgur.com/tBuOgUa.jpg Are these good shoulders or should I be looking for some with str and res and vit?




Also any other rerolls I should do on my gear or specific gear to look out for?

Still farming for ancient BK



Want to strive for set pieces dawg :bonk:
