problem is that you whirl through them anyway and they come running towards you......

but hery using a pvp barb in pvm is also less effective because of less dam and probably less eg/mf

really, ww is not good for this build, you run 1 area, in a 1 playergame. You dont need to run that area faster since you will get rd's anyways.
Your merc does it fast enough while you support him with goldfindquipment on. With a low budget merc meaning he uses insight , duriels and a tal mask a run even only takes like 2 minutes.
You think 2x dwarf, a goldfind amu, goldwrap, infernosts wealth etc is good for ww? Try wwing those lightenchanted council members with crap lightres.
you better keep distance with leap or stun em with warcry. 2x botd is just unneeded wealth on this build.

This build is all about gaining wealth by equipping lesser wealth items. As with most mf builds.2x botd would be bullshit and a total waste of runes to throw on a barb that only runs travincel in a 1-playergame. But hey if you wanna throw some overpowered expensive items on a barb that doesn't need em at all, then go ahead. The initial guide shows how it's done and the only part thats open for discussion imho is the eth bonehew indeed. But as said before reapers toll also isn't good, since it does cold dmg and shatters bodies at wich point you can't use find item anymore. Same goes for obedience. I personally like an eth insight with +6 critical strike.

And since this guide is also intended for hardcore, it's much safer to let your merc go to battle, while you keep distance and leap around. You really can't die that way unless you are very stupid.

there are plenty of other bosses or areas that one could visit with this barb
eldi and shenk,pindle f.e. , fireeye,rof,and so on and so forth

and wethe rone does 1 player games or other depends imho on damage

equipping 2 botds on a build is pointless because no advantages by them but i doubt that i`ll ever get those users of that shit to actually listen... ^^

if you know barbs and keep your eyes opened that is no problem with the ww

otherwise you would never play any melee chars or so in hc .....

Sorry m8 - if we are talking mf'ing then fine we visit shenk, eldi etc - but they drop crap gold.
Also - the reason I have 'one' botd is for 8 player games / br's & helping people get past Travi ! - so why not use it in Travi when gold mode? (Im not HC)

My other point made earlier - is the purpose of the gf barb is gambling, yet no guide mentions a simple rw that gets 15% reduced prices?
It's as fundamental as missing out a gheeds in the guide.

Also I cant see how this can be a 'humble' cheap build when discussing enigma + some of the amu's/boots - that gear can be very expensive on reset.

we only had the question wether a high frequency of runs would lead to a time out

one can therefor prolong thje runs by visiting extra bosses

although this only applies to bnet because sp you don“t give a damn

because it is a bad weapon, deals far less damage than the cheaper grief
zod and vex vs lo+mal....

I never mentioned the word eni in any case.. simply because I`d use wealth any dasy of the week on a GF baba and not that piece of junk

Thank you, this explains what this guide is intended for.
#1 One player game solo'ing Travincal ONLY
#2 More Goldfind
#3 The MF is reduced for finding BLUE ITEMS more often

----------------Separation Bar-----------------

As for other people referring to the EDGE bow runeword for the -15% Reduce Vendor stat, I do use that, but on my Gambler who is lvl96, I do not gamble with my Goldfind Barbarian. You are correct that it is important, I missed it out because of my barb is not the gambler.

Also, after horcking bodies, I pick up gold, go to town, place all my GC's into my Chest/Stash, pick up items from ground (use cube to for the extra space), head to town, ID it with Deckard and sell off the junk and keep what is useful.

Ohh, I have stated OTHER ITEMS for other people at the bottom of the thread, this also includes the Ali Baba, so, enough said about lem'd ali baba's

--------------Separation Bar-------------------
As for the WW'er people, go for it, you have your style of GF'ing.
One thing, maybe you should check my profile and look at my other GF Barb, he is Berserker and can do areas that your WW'er will suck at, like Chaos.

-------------Separation Bar--------------------

THANK YOU all for responding.
Some things that have been mentioned
are mentioned in the guide, please read.
