Hello,

I've been enjoying a 2H ww barb this ladder reset, levelling at slow pace.
I'm currently end of nightmare and i'm looking to buff the dps to prepare for hell...

I'm currently using an insight partizan + peace armor. But when trying to do NM WSK or cows, I feel this combo is crying for an upgrade. I have around 8K AR with WW.

Key questions : willing to keep it 2H should I stick to Insight in a GPA as an upgrade or switch to Obedience ? I feel insight might be better for the benefit of CS, but I keep reading that Obedience might be worth it, i'm bit puzzled. Should I keep peace or move to treachery or hustle ?
Beside that I'm planning to get LOH and I am using Hsarus belt+boots for AR boost.

What makes obedience 3 x better compared to insight ? Is it for the CB ?

Pretty much nails it. Only good thing with Insight is for casters with mana issues.

Bolded = pretty much all damage increases.
