the only thing annoying are those illusion packs, that sometimes bug out and I had to leave game, leaving stacks of NV behind...

Mallets in packs can hurt. 3 mallets + couple other mobs = even nuke (wrath or earthquake) doesn't guarantee a kill.

shield motherf(&ers are worse than invul. I have no issue with invul unless they shit fire up their a$$, but shield noobs sometime don't drop at all. Some of the late act4 elites hit hard, and if they don't drop shield, it's a lot of pain, whole lot of pain.

For the past week my gear hadn't changed. I get enraged a lot, sometimes one pack takes 2 enrages to kill. Relatively few death, 2 or 3 per run. hour and half to get 5 NV and kill diablo, but drops had been pure GARBAGE.

this was last thing I was able to buy
Because GODDAMN blizzard and their trashy a4 drops. FU blizzard and your a4 bullshit!

It's 110% every once in a while. Sidearm translates to 25% more damage, triggers Life on Hit, and can AoE. Better for bosses and small packs. Maniac on the other hand buffs Revenge damage, which is great when you're spamming revenge while in a big pack, but I preferred the healing and single target dps increase provided by Sidearm. This guide isn't a bible guys, if you want to make a few changes that's totally ok. Play how you like :D


I had a build similar to yours, but after I got home from work this morning I switched my build up to excatly what you had.. First time in Act 4 hell today, soloed the entire act and put a nice 2 shot on Diablo.. Having Leap and Charge both made all of Diablo's abilities mute..

I also watched your vids on farming Inferno, and Im looking foward to gearing up and getting to it...

Ill give this build a +10 vouch!! Thanks so much! :)

How fast do you kill with this build? Also if this is a tank build?
I really like tanks, but i also like to have a little dmg om them, i want a balanced character :)
And ~ how much igg did you spend on you nice geard barb? :O or atleast how much do i need ti spend to be able to solo and tank ALOT in inferno? :P
I dont know if i want to make a barb and sell my wizzard ^^
Ive spent quite alot on my wizard (i think), but might want to play a barb cause i like the way tanks tank mobs! (if a barb can tank that much?) xD
Would like som barb players to tell me what they think about barbs and stuff :)

Hello Skate

Killing is slow if you're alone, but if you take Tyrael with you as I recommend in my farming videos, you can kill an elite pack in less than 2 minutes, which I consider good enough.

A barb might take a little longer to kill elite packs but he'll seldom die and doesn't have to clear the white mobs beforehand for kiting room, so you save time elsewhere.

I've spent about 20 million gold but I realize the my items are worth more now. If you go to my youtube channel, check out my gearing guide video, it shows you what I have. (Though I've since upgraded my weapon to 930 dps, 180 str 150 vit +300 life on hit)

If you can save enough gold on your wizard to get an armor set for your barb that is good enough for act 3 you'll save a lot of time.

@ Zrave, I got lucky and found a " String of Ears" belt. It rolled up decent, 295 armor, 19 res all (20), life on hit 92 (94), damage reduction melee 17% (20%) but it rolled low dex and Intel.. my question should I hold on to the belt for the above mentioned stats or look for something else with vital and or strength?

Thanks :)

Piddly - It's definitely good enough to use, but it won't be as awesome as it could be. It's gonna depend on your current belt. Since you already own it, I'd suggest trying it out for a few runs before you decide :D

Powerful - your current belt is pretty good. I recommend you try them both and see which one you feel safer with, it's hard for me to say since that's a really good belt and a rather poor string of ears.
