it helps a lot if you understand the original pre-sling portal barb build

Do you guys prefer wizspike or suicide branch, the @res from wizspike means you can focus entirely on 20 life 17 mana SC but the + skills from branch helps with leap cc. I'm not sure which to go with.

on my budget portal barb i am running 1 wizspike and 1 suicide branch in the off hand actually. great question +1 rep. its key to hit the fcr breakpoints. i am debating on 2x wizspike since we dont need mana for portal barb

Thank you! I need to do some testing. I've done a few runs with the new horazon boots and I feel like they're also a huge game changer due to having frw and cannot be frozen, nowhere near as impactful as the sling ring tho. I feel like war travs are better once you have full gg gear tho as you kill everything before it even has a chance to freeze you

ya just remember a good benchmark is 500 portals per brun.

Ok explain?

I personally think it's better to run full FRW charms so you can get to the waypoint to start TPing faster

thoughts on harmony bow switch?

Honestly Harmony swap might actually be BIS for Portal Barb.
