Just use 1 or psn/life and the rest 3/20/20s.

Guessing you don't have any other psn dmg on your items. the psn dmg is only for them to slow down their regeneration of hit points... of course useless vs Psn Immune.

Note: this is just an option. Your choice.

Grief has venom on striking.

So 3/20/20

I am glad I got corrected, I didn't even recall Venom on Grief... most likely because I didn't care for it.

I have to agree with 3/20/20s as well now. :D

whirlwind doesn't proc venom so unless you zerk, you wont need to worry about venom casting

175 is viable but depends on your play style, most gm rules ban more than 1x 451 psn scs but if you're just pubbing then 175s are fun

I had a psn barb back in lod with 37x 175/20scs and it did really well. here's a thread of it: https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=19437314&f=52

Ahh, then I definitely will stick to 3/20/20s as I would be a Berserker.
