Not saying that it Sucks, I am replying to the fact that they said mine sucked, I know that it would rock as they use the exact skills and the same attributes. The only difference with this guide is:
1) the bulk amount of 3/20/20 sc's (i only have 2 in mine and my guide says "Optional")
2) boots (hotspurs compared with treks also I state "Optional")
3) Shield (ss compared to pheonix "well, Bigsipo's uses that")
4) Belt (arachs compared to Tgods "this is only for fcr, skill and warcries based)
5) skill gc's (WC compared to Combat again "Optional")
6) rings (fcr compared to Ravens (dex is required, they go on about blocking)
Also a Note, if they read my guide properly, i Use Phase Blade, meaning my dex is 136.

If you follow the same principle of chaosing with either build, they would definately clear it with ease, i have proved this in open games over and over again.

My remarks are based on the fact that "Take the Items out of the equation, and you have the exact same barb" and I do not take kindly to them running my guide down when they have not tried it themselves.

Sorry flaming.

NOTE: THIS IS A LADDER CHALLENGE, not a non ladder, this will sort out your 3/20/20'sHere is a nice challenge for you and your barb, DO BAAL AND MINIONS and see if you can do that in under 5minutes, which my barb can, that includes tele'ing there with no maphack, and killing minions, ohh shite, by the way, i will be nice and give you one major secret to doing this, do not use HOWL. Ohh, i have to be more generous too, here is another tip, use concentration skill on the second wave of monsters, as they are immune to magic, hence berserk is useless against them.

And Pray to the Gods that in the throne that there are no Casters, since you have to use Concentration skill to kill second wave, caster may respawn and cast iron maiden (OMFG this could be a problem). But since I use Pheonix, I do not worry about that because those minions are dealt with by my Redemption Aura.

I personally know for a fact that your barb with the items you use can not clear baal (including baal himself) in under 5minutes when casters in throne, as for your barb being the Cs Barbar, I personally doubt that, considering my build has 2-3k more damage and 3-4k more attack rating for killing Diablo, and on my switch i am able to tele there in pretty good time while using less mana.
