Hi, So i managed to have my GF playing one game. She accepted to play the only game shes ever played when young ( she hates video games )

Surprisingly we had a lot of fun starting from 0 leveling and questing together no help from my other guys and cant use any item i had on my accounts.
Thats nice honestly cuz we are fighing for rune drops gems weapons and she actually likes that.. haha anyways

She is playing Barb, im a pally

She is clueless on how skill works and she does not want to learn that -_- but still she likes killing monsters and playing. My question here is how should i spec her barb to be "good"

( she has one skill on left click and TP on right click ) i know thats bad.. but thats how she wants to play no BO or auras or anything...

Whats the best spell to level so she can click monsters with something better than normal attack ?
She clicks non stop even if i told her 10 times that she can just click and hold until the monster die... so frenzy wont be good right ? whats the best non click click attack ?

Also should i go for zeal with synergies ? or frost zeal ?

I also have a question i have never actually do a real walkthrough so i am a bit clueless on whats good and not good... what runeword do we need in what bases ?
i dont understand why people go for a flail or a knout ?

Whats better low level bases and Runeword?

Thanks :)

She wants to play without auras or bos? get her the fuck out.
Go find a casual hack and slash to fit her needs

I would recommend to get her some Life and Mana Leech and go for Whirlwind, perhaps she likes whirling around ^^ Could also fit the click mentality..
If no leech is available yet I would try Concentrate perhaps. Solid skill that also fits click mentality

Bases for runewords don´t matter that much in the early game. Just watch out for some with low strength requirements in the first place

This list has some (low level) runewords that might be useful to you - list is not in a particular order:
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Honor | AmnElIthTirSol | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Insight | RalTirTalSol | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Obedience | HelKoThulEthFal | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Passion | DolOrtEldLem | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Lionheart | HelLumFal | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Spirit | TalThulOrtAmn | Shield/Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/King%27s_Grace | AmnRalThul | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Smoke | NefLum | Armor
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Wealth | LemKoTir | Armor
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Splendor | EthLum | Shield
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Rhyme | ShaelEth | Shield
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Ancient%27s_Pledge | RalOrtTal | Shield
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Malice | IthElEth | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Lawbringer | AmnLemKo | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Edge | TirTalAmn | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Black | ThulIoNef | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Steel | TirEl Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Voice_of_Reason | LemKoElEld | Weapn
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Strength_(runeword) | AmnTir | Weapn
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Nadir | NefTir | Helm
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Lore | OrtSol | Helm
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Holy_Thunder | EthRalOrtTal | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Leaf | TirRal | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Memory | LumIoSolEth | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Harmony | TirIthSolKo | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Melody | ShaelKoNef | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/White | DolIo | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Zephyr | OrtEth | Weapon
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Peace | ShaelThulAmn | Armor
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Myth | HelAmnNef | Armor
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Treachery | ShaelThulLem | Armor
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Stealth | TalEth | Armor
https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Radiance | NefSolIth | Helm

Personally I like Smoke and Rhyme very much..


Also keep in mind the following crafting recipes to get some sockets into white items to get some bases:
Tal, Thul, PTopaz => Armor
Ral, Amn, PAmethyst => Weapon
Ral, Thul, PSaphire => Helm
Tal, Amn, PRuby => Shield


Hints aside, from what you are telling I would recommend this in the end:

Edit:
4s Flail is used for https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Heart_of_the_Oak
5s Flails for https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Call_to_Arms
(both of them a pretty much high end runewords)

Knout for https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Black perhaps? But I don´t know for sure..
