Almost all guides recommend putting all into vita and only str and dex for gear requirements. Is there guide where sb has crunched the numbers why str is not worth it?

2 options:

1. enough str for gear, rest to vita
2. ALL pts to str

option 2 is referred to as titan. and while it can work u need a high dmg 2 handed wep like ebotd tmaul to make the added %ed u get from 300 or so extra str points to make it even worth it. and at that point you're relying on life leech to keep u alive.

anything inbetween is a waste and doesnt work out.

PvP j guess you are right.

Pvm that's i think the dumbest of vanilla players "ALL INTO VITALITY ITS SO EASY"

No.

You need enough hp to stay alive, then surivability comes with leech.

High dmg = higher leech/ clear speed

Everything other than that is suboptimal and you are playing your game wrong for 20 years

PvM, especially wanna play HC barb. I was thinking too, more dmg more leech and monsters are dead earlier = less damage.

I am not saying its new lul just making fun out od majority of guides, peepa suggesting Vita over str on heavy hitting mele classes.

I guess 20 years is not enough to test

Mind giving a explenation or its more you won the discussiom by calling me wrong?

Hows more dmg = more leech = faster clear speed not accurate?

Obviously we are talking about mele dps barb
