I dont really like this guide. Its pretty easy to figure out the basics of this game and this guide doesn't seem to surpass it or help to better understand a build.
Some people could use real advice, not just the usual: "use the highest possible EE weapon with high str/dex/lifesteal/life and other mods are welcomed too" stuff.
I dont mean to be hostile or anything hug.gif but with less than 10k kills and a hc mage with 154 kills seems kinda low to me to have the experience to write a well thought through guide.

For example some calculations on average damages with str/dex builds would actually help people to pick a build.

+50 vit in HC ohmy.gif Seems a lot to me, 10 is enough I think.

Thanks for the effort you put into this guide however.

THat's sad.

I MQ'd twice on a str barb with a very low EE 45 axe on my str barb, it wasn't hard.

Hehe, maybe that was just me, it was my very first char in ladder slasher, so maybe you have more luck, who knows? smile.gif

i would have liked to see a weapon type recommendation.
str builds should try to use weapons with a more consistent damage, such as axes,
whereas dex builds are more focused and going towards crits, so they should try to use swords or similar.

overall, nice guide.
very easy to read.

Nice guide but not correct.

Barb not the best char... for many reasons... spec on HC.

I send my thoughts on barb vs fighter on PM.

Nice and easy to read tho hug.gif
