Switched to Um'd Gface, and respec'd. Damage seems more significant. AR is a tad lower, but I havent even touched charms/rings yet.

So far so good.

1 more thing. use the grief with better damage as the primary weapon. if you need to use berserk or con you want to be swinging with the high damage weapon.

At that attack rating probably better off using a blessed aim merc over might. I guess it would only matter vs bosses though if use griefs

Your level matters too in chance to hit calculation. So if you’re level 80 in an area level 85 you are going to miss a lot and feel squishy. IIlike to be high 80’s to dial in a WW barb

AR is low = less hits = less leach

Get better inventory or substitute in Angelic ring/Amulet in meantime.

Highlords once you get inventory

Much more significant strikes for sure. Got the merc set up. Might made a difference. Damage is way more consistent.
