Just wondering what the consensus is on which is better to max on frenzy Barb. It’s looking like I’ll have enough points to max one and put a few points into the other. Unless it’s better to max one and sink the remaining points into Shout?

Depends entirely upon your items, but i generally max mastery. It's less overall dmg but provides ar and critical strike. If your following blinkie's PVM 100% ds build, You could put all points into taunt instead because you do not benefit from the extra critical strike.

Edit: as fsr ar shouts go, with torch ani and war cry weapons, 1 point into shouts is fine but i usually pump BO. Especially in hc but not shout

Thanks I have BO pumped, I like to do so on all Barb builds. That makes perfect sense though. I’ll go Mastery until I get better gear and respec. Right now my only DS is coming from my 1 Grief (so only applies to half my swings. Appreciate it
