Yea, that's a nice way to sum up the skills for 1-60 when not getting rushed/leveled rather than searching throughout all the posts. smile.gif

heart.gif Morholt,

Thanks for answering my pms about a zerker chaoser.....but dangit if I don't have to rebuild again!

Poor man's questions:
Will this work with non eth lacerators and warshrikes?
Will this build work with a lesser inventory?
Will this build work without Faith merc?

Otherwise I'll have to go berserk for ladder and only nonladder for thrower :-(

(I still can't bring myself to cannibalize my permed stormhides, imp brows and such just to get a few hr's on ladder)

You could use non ethereal ones, but that would leave you peaking a max of about 16k damage, I believe?
You can use a lesser inventory. Can use things like masteries/dex and masteries/life grand charms as a cheaper/easier to find substitution.
And the faith merc is pretty much a must. The only thing I see as switchable on her is using a non eth gaze rather than an eth one. :/
Might be okay with a kiras+shaft though, but she'll have no life leech, and she has surprisingly good damage since she'll have 175% damage to undead and 200% damage to demons, along with benefiting from amplify damage.

Waterwalks are low in run/walk (and yes, run/walk is a nice thing to have for getting around town, especially if a friend shrines a few games for you smile.gif). The ar from water walks is half that of ik boots, the 15 dex won't be that much of a friend considering just how absurd our damage is already, the life isn't that much more, and +5% max fire resistance really isn't anything since you don't tank with this character. You're a thrower.
The play style is similar to a bowazon--stand back and unload! smile.gif
Trust me, I've considered every item in the game for this character. biggrin.gif
The only other option on boots is to use 25 dex dancers, and that is only if you can find a ring that is the required one that also has 10+ str on it.
I've only seen one this season and it instantly shot up to over 1.2k fg, so I didn't bother posting it as an option. wink.gif

And in times, just for fun, you can teleport into infector's pack without using leap or howl, and just throw at him face to face while tanking, and your life will go up because the life leech off of arreats while hitting for so much damage so many times is just THAT much!

Well, from the past season I had a good bit of fg.
Then with the reset, I was able amass even more fg since everything sold really high ( Showing Transactions From The Month of: June 2008 · Total Transactions: 283 · Gold In/Out: 41,838.07 / 33,123.71). icon_pointl.gif and that is with me blowing like 1k fg on a character like 2x days before reset was announced.
So even when high runes were over double of what they are now, it wasn't too much fg to me; especially since this barb has found me so much, like I knew he would.
He's found me probably 3-4k fg of stuff sold already, and I still have so much more to sell that it's probably about another 1-2kfg if I ever get around to posting it all (going all towards my next character to climb the ladder smile.gif); and I haven't sold a thing from last ladder yet.

I didn't start him until about a month after the reset.

1st
gulli= 15% ds.. which means a hell lot more damage than your arre....
looking at your setup:
lacerator`s have no DS
warshrikes have 50%
your mastery will offer you some ~20% (however mastery is cs and cs and ds cancel each other out
highlords ~ 30-4x%

which means, that with your warshrikes you have good ds some 80-90%, whhile with your lacerator, you´re ~ at 40-50% ds if you`re good...
a lot more ds possible here

2nd:
who needs a shield, if you can use dualhoto or dualwizzy... hmm mana, more skills,more fcr (105 is the bp we`re going for), more resis
and we don`t even wanna mention that
1. you` re far away from MB with your dex
2. blockspeed of a barb with a shield that has noch % faster blockrate is pretty low


3rd.. frenzy was meant for quick movement and having to tele in areas like the river of flames where on can easily see the way from the map, same as in the cs, where everythign is build out of the same parts....

4th
with the pierce you kill more monsters, more xp and don`t tell me that all you do is only the 4 sealguards and dia in one game...
one does also do more different things than that

5th wt`s > ik:
20 avdam is what you get from using wt`s ... this equals 40 maxdam,. which equal
5 of your 8 maxdam gc`s --> which means, that 15 spaces in your inventory can be filled up differently while using wt`s instead of ik boots--> this handles the frw+ar quite well
wt`s offer 10 str+10vita= 20 stats, one barb gets 4 life per point in vita, which means 80 life
-->80-44=36= another 2 fields more free in your inventory
