Any barb pros?

Simple answer: No

Complex answer: Even with the best most GFG setup and pre buffing and putting down an AOE Amplify damage proc with Brand and double griefs ww'ing around the place the build is just not efficient

Can it kill P8, yes, after several WW back and forths it'll whittle down stuff on P8, and you can Zerk whatever immunes / stone skin remain

Is it as fast as other cookie cutter builds on P8? No

Is it as efficient as other classes from an investment / item requirement POV? No

You should play WW if you enjoy the playstyle, not because it "clears P8 fast"

2x grief phase blade
2x wizspike
vamp gaze (ber)
highlords
enigma
laying of hands
raven
string of ears
fcr dual leech ring
gore riders

inventory of max/ar/life charms, torch, anni
all points strength, base vitality, enough dex to equip phase blades
act 2 might or holy freeze merc with eth reapers, fort, andys

the leech from gaze, string, and fcr ring will always pop your life/mana orbs back to full instantly
has dr for survivability
maximum dmg output

you should use a fort with this on p8. won't need the wizard spikes either then. maybe a storm shield and sword guard in swap incase you get into trouble then you can ww to safety.

Running in this game is pretty mouth frothing. I think it's best to take advantage of the fact that Barbs have the best tele frames in the game. No need defensive items since life leech is the main mechanism for survival.

fort is a big boost to damage though. if you are going all in with damage why not fort. don't you want to clear everything on p8? if so why teleport?

Depending on the TZ, maybe Fort could be swapped on for some areas.
