i personally never use 102fcr shield setup.... like i said i do fine with my claw/claw. the only things i swap in and out are fury and fools claw. (fury for more open wounds vs necros and sorcs and the like) otherwise, 65fcr is fine vs everything else.
if you can keep a lock good enough and while 5 traps are pounding them, even a barb wont be able to beat you. if you are good enough he may hit you at most once or twice before hes dead. or if you play like i do, i get him low and just trade ww though him as traps hit him its pretty much a guaranteed win. i've done it to barbs on east and those on d2pk as well. its not that hard. just learn the barb's style and timing.
as for mindblast, its recommended to get it on the chaos claw, but if you cant then unless you have a fools with mindblast as well, statting it is a must. otherwise, if you have mb on both fury and fools. just dont stat it
Hybrids have some huge boosts on d2pk, and like no one can play barb there.
