Just came back to d3 after few months. I see that new build is bats and I hear it's strong. I used zdogs, and my question is, is it still strong? Which is better, zdogs or bats?

bats.
but it depends on how good you 0dogs gear actually is. really highend 0dog is close to bats in efficiency. (but costs several times more.)
however, when loot 2.0 comes, 0dog will be one of the builds that benefit the most from it. (for example 100-480 dam homunculi)

Just started playing the firebats build ... it seems pretty fun.
I have a few questions if someone can help me out

4000 armour
750 all res
60k life
In MP9, I can survive pretty good.
In MP10 ... the charging bulls will ding me for 4/5 life
And sometimes they kill me with one charge.
What stats do I need to improve on ?

I am surprised how much crit dmg the bats generate.
Without any buffs, I crit 1M to 1.5M
With soul harvest and big bad voodoo ... I crit up to 4.5M
Are those crit numbers normal ?
And what passives / skills can I use to increase the crit numbers ?
I am new to this build and need some advice.

with those defensive stats, you should never get oneshot by a single bullcharge, not even on mp10. (ffrom white bulls that is... elite bulls can sometimes have nasty dam adds which make their charges oneshot you...)

in general, your gear is very good and you should have no trouble whatsoever with mp10 farming.
also keep in mind that paragon levels help a lot with ehp, so things will get better after some time.

and yes, it is normal to crit for so much with gear like yours.
maybe stack up some phys res as it helps against bull charges and against reflect. (and most trash mobs)

alternatively, you could try switching paranoia for frightening aspect. the added defense allows you to facetank more, which increases your killspeed as well.

in general, there are few builds in d3 where the ability to facetank stuff makes as much of a difference as it does for CoB wds.

can someone point me in the right direction for a good and fun wd build? on ps3

What its the best build for a wd in hc? I just started whit wd and hc... and I dont know what setup should put... thx!!

hey could some1 throw up a gear setup for mp5+
would be nice if can be done under 100 mill gold

What boots would you use. I can't decide.

if the boots are your only item with radius, then definitely #1.
in all other cases, it depends if you need those res or not.

but i would most likely prefer #1.

I have shoulders with pickup radius 7 too. Maybe I craft better ones without pickup in the future who knows...
