looking to build a pvp barb class. unsure what skill is the most effective/well-rounded.

I enjoy frenzy and conc, and whirlwind is always an option.

Please someone explain the most well-rounded build and pros/cons.

Thanks all.

Best barb pvp skill is battle order because you can use it to boost the life of your real dueler

why only one skill?
A bvc can use whirlwind, berserk, double throw, leap and war cry all in one build, and still have a 1 point frenzy to mess around with in impractical circumstances

If you're going barb vs all, whirlwind is your best bet.

Berserk is also nice for telezerk chain locks since Dr doesn't affect it.

leap+ww so good pvp chars can win team duels

ww too buggy this patch to be worth making
berserk barbs take advantage of bad pub players, not a real build
conc barbs are viable vs melee chars that spent less money on d2 than you
throwbarb doesn't beat anyone except shitty euro players

I hate saying it but it looks like melee conc barb is the closest thing to a viable pvp barb this patch

Thanks man I appreciate you taking the time to reply to this. Not sure of how to actually build a conc barb properly as I generally use casters for pvp but I’ll research some guides.
