It's not like he sacrificed tons of EHP to get to that DPS, his gear gives crazy EHP and DPS at the same time because its simply godly. The problem is with the horrible class imbalance. Wizards just have absolutely nothing to mitigate damage. Mirror image is a joke. 16 second cool down and it's even bugged so that everyone auto targets the real one.

Note: I actually main a barb, but I do have a wizard... I'm just interested in some semblance of class balance.

Its barblo3. No balance required. Make it simple, if your barb lose to wizard. Uninstall. If your wiz can kill something, pat yourself on the back and nerd rant "GG" or whatever you ultra serious business game nerds say when you kill someone to boost e-penis size 3 inches.

Mannercoookie what do you think about barb vs barb? wha gear and spec would you use for this matchup?

Yep I just watched the recording of the duel. That wizard severely out-DPSes you AND out I would argue out EHPs you (since you die a lot faster even with relentless when he is hitting you with ray of frost than him even when you have him in a stunlock and are just bashing non-stop) . The only reason you won is because the class itself is broken and has nothing to counter the non-stop CC and stuns in your final build from furious charge and bash.

Honestly I spent some time testing BvB and it's just really a rock/paper/scissor type game which is not really entertaining, and between top geared barbs we can't really kill each other.



well he does not out ehp me, but I agree the matchup needs work like many other matchups in PVP for D3 right now.

what specs did you test and why?:)

Tried everything I could think of I think lol, in the end I found a cookie cutter spec but if the other barb mirrored my spec it was a forever stalemate with good geared barbs.

Hey Manner...

What do you think about a top end IK Belt with -5 rend over a rare belt?

With a rare belt you can get 100 more Vit and 12% life, which is huge, but a top IK belt gives 100 more strength and a lot of utility in the form of more max fury and another -5 on rend cost, which makes it almost spammable. I know the life steal on it is fairly worthless but...

rares can roll -5 rend on top of life%,vit,str,ar

of course they don't exist though
