Ive enjoyed classic the last few years ww'ing with barbs using all from lances to executioners swords and what not.

Had hoped with this dlc I could play barb.

But it seems no big changes?

yes but now you have to worry about decrep / holy freeze slowing you down from 4 fpa

There is warlock that you could cleave with 2h.

the new sword that procs amp is pretty sweet.

dreadfang, section 7

But below 200% ed
Have youbtested this on a barb, maybe I'm missing something?

No, its horrendous.

Double swing on switch => instant amplify damage with the difference that monsters don't flee from you like with lacerator.

Yeah classic has so much swag. Red Barb, Blue Barb, Lance and Execute Barb

its all in the amp dmg proc, would use as offhand, on swap or for with an a5 merc

I thought amp dmg and death ward don’t stack? Grim ward does -120 physical res, amp only does 100. Annoying to use I suppose but it’s what I’ve been doing on my barb
