Worth getting?

how much?

Hey there! are there any ww barbs with a 2hand-weapon like skorn out there? The dmg is quite crazy and they can have 300+ str, 1000loh and 300critical hit dmg increase. the only bad thing about them ist, that they are not very fast (1.00 aps)
since skorn is a axe i will get the 10%chc by skill.

are there any out there who use skorn as a ww barb and can tell me that their dmg is nice? How are u doing in act 3?

thx for your help

I'd think so! Also depending on price, ofc.


For the Rend Barbarians out there:
What "left mouse skill" are you using? I used bash with Dmg increase. The dmg increase was nice, but Bash often knocked my opponents out of rend range, which sucked.


So, I tried Bash "Clobber" for extra stun, but with the few "Bash" hits 2 hand barbs make and the very short duration in inferno, it doesn't seem to be worth it.
I also tried Frenzy "Maniac" for extra damage, but it just has too low fury created, especially since Rend Barbarians need to hit and run more instead of holding the left mouse button down and staring out of the window (or well, at least I have to).

So:
What about Bash "Onslaught"? No annoying knockback, 2 extra hits, heard they get life on hit (which Rend Barbarians don't typically have, but I still do), high dmg, high fury created. Seems nice.
What about Cleave? I would actually prefer Bash, because Rend is already good against masses...
Is Gathering Storm any good? -Enemy Movement Speed sounds good for hit and run, but 1 sec seems to be way too low...
And did anyone test scattering blast? It shouldn't proc knockback as often as Bash + it grants extra damage, but would I be better off with just taking increased dmg Cleave/Bash?

Difficult... and atm I can't test it so would be nice to hear some experiences of you guys.


Btw, current build and equip is this http://eu.battle.net/d3/de/profile/NeAndiTaler-2143/hero/1926444
Although revenge is sometimes switched out for Battle Rage and Tough as Nails for Ruthless/Weapon Master

Can anyone critique my ww barb and give me some advise to increase my dps? I am thinking of my rings and MH weapon to get more crit/loh but I'm not too sure of what are the piority of stats I should be looking for.

stylish skorn ^^

I just tested rend and i freaking love it xD

I use cleave/rupture on my leftclick. It proccs bloodshed and slaughter. prepare for some crazy chain reactions

Cleave - 4 get but think its dmg rune or fury rune
Hoa - dmg rune
Brage - into the fray for fury or the dmg one
Wotb - dmg rune idk name...insanity?
Warcry - impunity
Revenge - provocatiom

Tough as nails
Ruthless
Wep master


Best 2 hand skorn build ever

THree levels of Double Nado :

Inspired by Alkaizer's plvl 100 barb

Here are the three levels :

Level 1 : sustain wotb for one elite pack
Level 2 : sustain wotb for one area
Level 3 : sustain wotb for one area , without the use of warcry impunity

most of us are at level 1 , we are able to kill off an elite pack with wotb before we plow through normal creeps and hit the next pack

some of us are at level 2 where we could sustain wotb for the entire area , e.g. cursed tower level 1

we achieve this by having fury items like 5 piece IK , mighty wpn main hand with weapon mastery passive , lacuni prowlers / tyreal's chestpiece / whatever that brings you up to 24% run walk , soj to deal less damage to normal creeps to feed fury off the normal creeps yet kill them off after like 2 seconds

for level 3 , you need godly items that allow you to forgo the use of warcry impunity , saving the space for the current OP skill ( rend atm ? overpower or any skill could be used here too )
