I would bet on the cases where they are triple-enchanted.
For each hit recovery you put them into, they release lightning bolts + 1 invisible corpse explosion + 1 invisible frost nova.
If that wasn't enough, on death, they release 2 invisible corpse explosions + 2 invisible frost novas.
Now, if there's conviction around, that's an easy ticket to hell.
But sometimes, amplify damage alone will boost CE damage enough to matter aswell.

I have assembled what appears to be the standard Trav Zerker Barb setup. Grief, Shako, Skulders, Laying of Hands, War Travs, the usual shit. 75 Fire Resist, 75 Lightning Resist, 3500+ Life.

I'm about 200 runs in and sometimes I randomly (like 20% of the time) just get fuckin slammed and I can't figure out what the specific cause it. It doesn't SEEM to be the hydras. Is it the council normal attacks paired with my 0 defense because of berserk? The mega stack of Might Aura, Curse, Extra Strong? I'm level 86 and still just randomly die unless I run around and potion. Something feels off here and I can't put my finger on it.

I did try switching to Arreats Face/Stormshield instead of Shako/Rhyme but it did not seem to matter much in terms of survivability. Leech life seems to do very little when using berserk. Any tips or is this just a common occurrence?

You do realize that I did not play the game from 2009 to 2021, yes? Never played a berserk barb either. Quit being a faggot.

You’re right. I didn’t know you took that amount of time off. Clearly you need some help and you posted onto a discussion forum for that purpose. I can’t fault you there. Instead, I’ll give you the advice in which you seek.

You need at least 15% life leech for your Berzerker Barb. I would suggest the following set up:

Arreats + 2x Cath Rings
Cath Rings + String of ears
Ebotd as weapon with 15% life leech.

Zerkers can’t leech so you would need to waste points or use gimp skills to leech.. bad advice

That’s because all these noobs use less than 15% life leech when damage is converted you lose big % so you need a lot to make up for it. Don’t confuse OP more than she needs to be.
