I don't get the joke. What does a portal have to do with a barb?


its not a joke dude. you can see videos, build breakdowns, and explanations of the mechanics here. its more about the barbs ability to get high FCR and low animation windows which enables bportal glitching.

anyone know the best way to 99? i got 97 with my portal barb and baal runs are starting to be slow in exp. i tried to doing tz tombs and tz acts but after awhile in the game the kill radius becomes so large i miss exp as the mobs die 3-4 screens away and sometimes entire areas (like act 3 forest). curious if anyone has found a mechanism to reset the portal size other than leaving and rejoining the games? its adding a lot of time to my road to 99.

Unfortunately only way to reset afaik is leave/rejoin or die. Have you tried getting rid of all tomes + sling to remove the oskill and see if not having the oskill anymore works?

yes. i never carry tome. that is the mark of a noobie portal barb. sling only. but yea, even when removing the oskill it doesnt seem to reset the portal void range. i keep having to leave after ~2-3 tombs or i lose exp. it makes act 3 nearly unfarmable since the void box becomes so large the act nearly gets full cleared at high scaled tps. around 700-900 portals in a bportal glitch essentially covers 1/3rd of act 3s jungle which means even with teleport and high fcr you can't close the gap anymore since you can only tele like 1/30th of the act 3 jg. this is amazing for magic finding but horrible for rushing to level 99 and bruns are now stalling out since the exp requirements to 98 and 99 are so high

Wont work for the entire act, but any full area.
Takes about 7-8s to cover the bigger areas with this expanding glitched portal that ends up like some kind of impassable terrain for mobs.
Then you tele around and each time mobs spawn, they have no room to be, so they just die instantly.

It’s a silly bug.
Yes it looks awful, but it seems like most people just think it’s a troll and they joke with it… yet, by far the strongest build, even if it doesn’t properly deal dmg, you collect way more drops per minute than any S tier build clearing p8.

see: https://www.youtube.com/clip/UgkxC5pZT74y_bqNfTc39DWYdjW4JDx68eGL. a large streamer and the community was debating this last night. it's unlikely we will get banned because gamers are gonna game right? seems more realistic they do a rollback to fix the economy since bportal and portal barb has tanked high rune prices.
