Because Tank Barbarian's healing is based off of a percentage of their max life.

that doesn't make a difference if your ehp is the same

Well, LMK how well you do with a 30k HP Tank Barb with the same EHP as a 60k HP Barb with 900 All Res and 9k armor.

This.

and Revenge = % healer

common sense to get more life

What is the best solo inferno barb build?

I just need to know skills..

I currently enjoy using:

Frenzy
Rend
Sprint
Leap
Revenge

Note: I'm still leveling up, ways to go till 60.

What I'm saying is that you don't need too much HP to play the game comfortably.

I have 55khp/30kdmg/36%block chance/750res + 950phyres/9k armor. I never feel the need of more HP at all. I farm the entire act 3 in 1 hour.

How viable is a HoC for a tank/crit barb? Obviously a strength/all res/cc/socket one would be amazing, but that would cost like 50m+. Would getting something with 3 of those good, or better off getting a regular helmet?

I used this build while undergeared as a TANK:

Frenzy --> Sidearm or Maniac
Revenge --> Provocation
War Cry --> Impunity
Leap --> Iron Impact
Furious Charge --> Dreadnought
Ignore Pain --> Iron Hide

As my gear improved in survivability, I upgraded to this build:

Frenzy --> Sidearm or Maniac
Revenge --> Provocation
War Cry --> Impunity
Leap --> Iron Impact
Wrath of the Berserker --> Insanity
Overpower --> Crushing Advance

I had my POS HoC for like a month. lol Totally fine dude.

My POS HoC:

78 Strength
89 Vitality
36 Fire Res
150 Life Regen
8% Block
Open Socket (16% Life)

Bought it for like 200k on AH.

I mean HoC vs regular helm for a ~40-50M tank build, not a budget barb.
