Your barb has several issues, all different, but all linked to the crappy legendaries you're wearing.

Problem 1: Low vit, AR, armor, raped by fire.

Solution: Get a non-crit mempo.  It'll give you 70-80 AR, 10-12% life, and most importantly, get rid of that 17% more fire damage taken prop.  If you're going to use Andy's, you must get one with 5-6% fire dmg taken.

Solution: Your inna's pants and IC both need work.  Either swap to good rare pants (search for: 60 str/200 vit/50 AR/armor/2 os) and IK boots or get better versions.  The rare pants/IK boots path is cheaper by a lot.

Problem 2: 2.50/2.47 breakpoints.

Solution: Get a mace without ias.  Your mace's damage is also crap.  Get one with at least 775 average damage.  Once you have that, you'll need some more ias.  Depending on if you kept inna's pants or not, you'll need 6-15%.  Your IK gloves are crap, get rares with str/8+ ias/8+ cc/[vit or AR] and get some ias on a ring (if needed).

.


I have a mace 1007 DPS W/O IAS but i needed the IAS mace to hit the 2.5 break point which made a lot of difference in keeping WoTB up
- i need the SoJ/ HF rings for exp/elites
- i do ok now w/ ice climbers at mp 5, will try using my Mempo though

good Innas/ ice climbers cost a lot.

-Gloves seem doable i can find 80str/60-70 AR, 8 CC%, 8-9 AS% for 5mil ~ Then i should have 2.5/2.5
My DPS is low though as mp5 takes a bit of time to kill, but i dont die nearly as much with ice climbers. Low % andys costs to much as well ill stick with mempo i think.

thanks!

u dont need ias on mace to hit 2.5, a non ias mace and an echoing fury are the exact same base speed

ur barb needs a bit of work

1) that mainhand is absolutely horrible for ww, the average damage on it is so low, best way to go is put that echo on offhand then get a mainhand with str/socket/CHD with no lifesteal 950+ dps

2) get rid of witching hour, these are only for top top barbs, use an IK belt, then you will need more ias so u can ditch your IK gloves for rares with trifecta preferably with resists too since ur res is pretty bad..

I would recommend a non cc mempo but your cc is pretty low alrdy since ur missing it on ring slot and bracer slot

this is the best template to follow building a barb

- if you need 2.5/2.22 to keep up wotb, you're doing something wrong in your playstyle. 2.22/2.22 should be fine at keeping up wotb. you can hit 2.50/2.50 with your non-ias mace just by swapping gloves, and you should definitely do it.

- keep rolling hellfires till you get at least a decent one. if you need an soj for elites, you're probably in a higher mp than you should be. i play at a proper mp for the white mobs to keep up wotb and elite packs melt in 5-15 secs depending on which mob type and if they have shielding or something. if elites are taking longer than that, you're not playing efficiently.

- my point with the pants/boots was that people should use rare pants/ik boots until they can afford good innas/climbers. using bad innas/climbers is the worst of the three options.

- your dps is definitely not enough to take on mp5, so you should only be doing it when you want keys. else, it's more efficient to run a lower mp for exp.

- your EF is very mediocre. .22 aps should be avoided as it adds an extra 1% of ias to make up for it (read previous posts of mine to see the calculations). it also has no chd or LS.
- your axe has nice stats, but it's not the right speed to sync with EF. you really want 8% or more ias on an axe to pair with ef, and honestly, you want to pair ef with a mainhand mace and throw ef into the offhand.
- keep rolling hellfires, yours isn't good.
- your ik belt could use 80+ vit. you are relying on vit from weapons too much and it hampers your upgrade choices. vit on weapons is a nice bonus but should not be relied upon unless it is a top tier weapon that you're not upgrading for a long time.
