i agree to morot!
proof:
to hit a target u not really need that much dex for a barb
and every point in str gives u 1% dmg (axe are some more)
so a barb with 400 in str got 400% more ed
so botd weapon are not that good for a barb...
just think of a botd sword... it has 600 dmg the str ed plue of 400ed makes it around 1,2k cause its additive to the ed on the sword
and just take the 400 real dmg on grief... they give u just with 400 str u get a dmg @ 1,6k
plue this crappy armor with 300ed you get !Cause its additive! 2,8k....
my english is extremly worse, im sry for that... but this guides arent really that profession they just show slightly a way... and that they do some good...
