As an old GF barb builder, I find a lot of the comments in this thread to have cons, and also pro's.

A leap barb is by far the superior goldfind % hunter out.

Now, you can build this barb based one using Enigma or Wealth armor... (inB4-WTF-R-U-talking-about?)

Now, this means you have to "teleport", well, you can obtain this by using Enigma of course, BUT, you can also get this from using an Amulet with teleport charges.

Gavel of Pain on 'switch' is a great idea, except that it ONLY has 3 charges.

As for hunting outside of Travincal for more gold... you may as well build a Berserker barb... I have, this build did many things including hunting PITS, NILATHOK and more areas.

You do NOT need to MAX out Find Item skill because of the diminishing returns, shit, you could add points to resistance mastery or other things to increase the run of your hunts.

GF barbs were NOT created because of IRON MAIDEN, whatever or whomever told you this is just shitting more BS than necessary.

You can do a SOLO GF trav hunt for 3 + mil gold in one run thann it takes for a Warcry GF barb doing 4 runs.

Those that don't believe me... come at me with your scenarios and testing... I found this out playing the build from 1.09 up to v1.12. EDIT: sorry... 1.13.


Im pretty sure I had around 2500gf last ladder on my gf barb, doing hell trav I got ~700000-800000 gold per game. How the hell do you get 3mil?

I don't see it that way. All of it is interconnected. If i just make the 5% point, i can guarantee you 100% that 99% of all people reading it is going to misinterpret it and start bullying and harassing me for being in the wrong. So the only way i can make my point is to be 100% thorough. Sometimes it is like a kindergarten in here, you see, so i must be concise and solid.



No, i see it as fair. Fg is just a means to assess a value of an item. It actually makes trading more accurate and fair, than being forced to trade a more high-value item in-game if one does not feel one has any other option. That is the only thing fg means to me. Not truckloads of money. The problem begins when people start buying fg, and bot to find items. THAT is cheating, then you are bypassing the game rules. You see now?


How is it more fair if you have an advantage over players that dont use jsp? You're killing trading games for them. You're the same as a botter,if not worse, because botters that dont trade dont affect trade economy on d2

JSP is a website made to sell njaguar's mf bot where people can quickly exchange money for items. By your own standards it is cheating, but since you use it there is no way it is unfair because you are infallible.
It violates blizzard ToS which you say is cheating and only psychopaths cheat.

I give in game players fair trades, even more than fair trades, if i trade in game. This has to do with ethics.

Really? I've never seen any place that advertises and mf bot? I've never seen a link or option you can choose to sell fg for money? Where have you seen that? Do you do that?

If i trade with ingame traders i give them fair deals, i don't rip them off like most people do.

What do you think d2jsp is? It was literally a mf bot made by njaguar

Also here's a short list of subforums that have easy ways to cash out without violating those pesky ToS you're so worried about

There's also a built-in-feature to exchange cash for fg, and a trading forum to exchange fg for items.
If that doesn't meet your definition of a cash site then you're delusional.

Congratulations on your charitable nature. We don't care about any of your opinions about video game morality.
Fucking stop please

-ON TOPIC-

I am an enigma using frenzy barb with a beast/last wish weapon combo. I can full clear trav and durance 3 in less than 4mins and yields 500-700k

You get full juvies from the champ/elite bloodlords in durance 3 so that's a nice perk for me down there. Maffer Dragonhand recently dropped a Sur for me so that was neat.

Been awhile since I made full on GF barb (think 3 mil was exaggerated), ... I would get up to of 150k per kill and another 150k per horck, it is also good that occasionally you get more than 1 coin drop in kill or horck... since I use very little mf% on my build, I like to ID all dropped items and sell them, this was good because it also reduced the chances of "Realm Dow" scenarios.

Leap build pure gf% (2x 6 lem'd crystals etc) merc killing with bonehew, wealth and crown of thieves... lifetap on switch to keep merc alive and used leap to separate council and used barb as hydra blocker.

The most i made as a gf barb per run was about 1 500 000. Then it was almost optimal built. Now i get anything from 200 000 to 800 000 per run.

The average goldfind amount for a whirler or warcry barb is around 400-600k per run. For a leap barb it's between 700-1mil. Very occasionally you win the lottery and might get up to 1.5 mil but that's like 1 in 1000 runs - you wouldn't factor that result into your calculations.
