yep, exactly why I chose to build this

I toyed around with range barbarian, found it fun, the realized the DH does it better with half the effort and gear LOL.

Still fun nonetheless: kinda like carry Lina, battle chen, or roaming dk

You get a few different skills as well as a bonus 30% base damage reduction. Helping your tank with a shout is also very good. But as a pure ranged dps class nothing beats DH's so can't really argue with you there.

Lina is a semi carry imo, always gets quite a bit of farm, or has to anyway.

Just don't understand why you would choose a ranged barb over a WD, DH, or Wiz other then just the play style.

Putting that aside, cool post

Ranged Barb does more damage then a Witch Doctor. Witch Doctor can only compete for 20 seconds every 3 minutes with Zombie Bear cooldowns. Then again, Zombie Bears is not ranged. Having cleared on my WD, I re-rolled Barb to do Inferno again. I will say Ranged Barb does indeed do more dmg then WD.

Thanks!

I made a few points for the build on the post above yours. This build does a shit ton of burst at long range if you wanna compare to WD. For the other classes, as I said, they probably do more DPS in a pure dps build, but in a balanced survivability build barb as a big advantage.

/e one big weakness is the fact that we don't get any aoe skills except for Run like the Wind.

iso LOH

Eh?

You do realize the point of playing ranged = not getting hit ? or not often.

Also who said you can't get LoH with this build. If you'd write a little more I guess I could maybe right a more intelligent answer but unintelligent post gets unintelligent answer

I never claimed you couldn't get LoH, I was more saying your build needed it. Yes, I understand that the point is to not get hit.
But, in your izual kill video you just chilled there hoping to not get hit while you waited on your health pot to come off of cd.

Yeah but I didn't die and mostly got hit because of mistakes. A good dps weapon with life on hit is just unaffordable
