True, having waller illusionist (casting 3-4 walls around you)+ e.G. arcane sucks hard when u run out of rage/mobs to leech

Generally the best way to handle arcane is to not get yourself in a situation where you're going to be trapped into one. If you run into an elite/waller pack you might consider kiting away or through them into a more suitable area to fight them in, before theres a disco light show all over the place.

The best advice I can give to people new to this build is recast sprint OFTEN.

Generally I cast it once the icon is halfway through going off.

It takes some time for the tornados to actually spin up so to keep a constant stream of tornados pumping out you need to manage your fury well and cast over and over. The build is much like a snowball, it starts very slow, but once you spin up and get into a groove you can spin forever as long as you have enemies there

try the elective mode

then your allowed to use all skills

I'd like to make more barb video guides, but I'm not sure where to go from here. If anybody has any specific requests, or would like a demonstration on a certain mob type or boss let me know and I'll get a video done asap.

I just watched ur vids this morning and i like them, but I have a few question since I won't be using a barb but my brother will (who isnt the best gamer lol). He's using a tank barb now, but he's complaining a bit about killing speed and since he's a huge fan of ww I think he would love your build.

A few questions though:
From the vids it doesn't look to hard to master this barb build, but is it as simple as it looks? ( cause my brother is a noob )
An axe will work just as well as a mace? (since crit chance is the same from weapon mastery)
For farming act1 & 2, how much loh recommended?
What should i look for in my main and offhand weapon?

Would be great if u could answer these . Thanks in advance

I'd have any item and stat suggestions on clearing A3 with this build.



Tricky part is to keep up ur rage. Like vs wallers and stuff you might end up w/o fury
Loh and crits is what u are looking for, depending on ur life/armor & resis I'd go for 800+

If you're having trouble staying alive but have no problem killing, switch Wrath to Overpower with reflect rune. While Whirlwinding through massive packs you can keep 100% uptime on Overpower which drops damage received by 30% and each reflect tick procs LoH. Another tip is to use the Stun rune for Frenzy. When you're down to one mob left in an Elite pack and he's hard to kill with tornadoes you ca keep him nearly stunlocked with it.

27k dps, 800 res, 37k hp, 6.5k armor

I farm A2 with this variation like a joke. I will even purposefully double pull champ packs. More mobs = better uptime = staying alive.

Is it only me or do tornados do not generate fury anymore? On EU, didn't test it on American server yet.
Anyone can confirm?

Just tested on US servers, tornadoes are definitely still proccing fury. Are you sure you have Battle Rage with Into the Fray set and active?
