With barb in the lead, I got on to a skill calculator to map out initial skills. This time I'm thinking about this for a setup.
20 Freny
20 Berserk (synergy)
20 BO
9 Double Swing (skill until frenzy <- 9 makes it mana free)
1 each (8 total) Nat Stamina, Increased Speed, Iron Skin, Nat Res, Find Potion, Find Item, Battle Command, Taunt
6 prereqs
That puts the character at level 72 before starting to max out the other Frenzy synergies.
Merc this time will be a A2 Might merc or a A5 Lawbringer merc. I'm not sure if I can get magic damage high enough to deal with PIs in hell. The +Magic Damage% is applied after all physical damage modifiers, so A2 Might merc may get it done if I can get ~800 physical damage and Gravepalm/LoH glove switches.
I'm going to farm NM a lot more this time to gear up.
