Diablo® III

Ok so here's the deal many of you are going to be shocked to find out I run through mp 5 with my current setup w/o much trouble. Obviously it's not the most efficient but I got sick of literally just running and swinging my skorn once for each leet. So with that said I have a belt that adds 12k DMg but I lose LS so it's not viable. Waste of 8 mil also have fire walkers that add 5 k DMg but then I lose my Ik set bonus. That bonus is the only thing that keeps my fury generation up IMO so any of you expert barbs out there please help me out with items your willin to sell or if Xmas cheer is still around give at highly discounted price. I can get good through rmah but really don't want to.

It appears as if your crit damage is pretty low. I would drop those rings/ammy you have and get more crit/crit damage jewelery. You're using a very slow weapon so I don't really see the importance for stacking only 1 or 2 ias piece items since you won't reach any breakpoint anyways. I would drop the ias personally and stack as much crit and crit damage in your case. Thats my opinion but I'm sure someone else will have some other completely different opinion and shoot me down completely haha.

Yeah man welcome to diablo everyone's an expert. I like your idea. Want to get to mp 8 so I can farm keys effectively and make some str hellfire rings. Who knows maybe I can get lucky and roll one with crit DMg. Don't know if my build is popular but I need to big DMg from skorn to take down champion packs. I dunno hopefully some bad a$$ ring plans come out in 1.0.7 update.

double tornado does not work with skorn unless you stack IAS in nearly every slot. There are other builds more suitable for 2h weapons like hota/rend.

If you really want to see the double tornado build work like its supposed to, dual wield with a proper setup. If that's the direction you want to go, post back.

Honestly I think do higher mp lvls in going to néed to hit harder so I'm thinking about switching over to a hits/rend build however my current setup works great on mp5 the loh on the skorn and life steal on the belt and need without a doubt.

I almost feel like a properly built WW barb is the best build hands down for PvE. If I change a few pieces of my gear (helm and shoulders) I can solo mp10, not ubers, just the regular game. It takes a bit longer to kill things but it can be done. It'll be nice once the new patch hits and the crafting mats/plans come into play

This is just my opinion but I was a skorn guy for a long time. I was rend hota barb and could do mp 10. WW and skorn dont mix unles you have 1.50 attack speed and a life steal skorn and really good crit chance. If I was you just goto this setup, Battle rage into the fray, Rend blood lust , war cry imputny or hardened wrath and if you choose hardened I usually choose tough as nails over blood thirst, and I could still do mp 10 with 3% life steal from ik belt. next wrath of barbs insanity I promise you everything dies so fast then HOTA you will hit super high crits 1m plus usually. Then I used bash with punish for the hota build very good. But from what I see you need 10 more cc on your gear IMO if your gonna run that build. Remember guys that's just my opinion and I know not to may of you care lol

biggest mistake you made with gearing 29k life!!!

You've murdered different builds. You are mixing WW, HotA, and Revenge/Rend.

HotA does not mix with WW, leap does not mix with WW, you don't have high enough crit or attack speed for WW.

I dunno where to even start.

hota mixes great with ww lol

wow...so many ideas and differences of opinion...i like that. I know my HP is low and in all liklihood that will keep me from higher MP levels. I am still trying to find someone to either sell me my next item or show me one. I feel like my IK set is probably the best I can afford however I may be able to afford one ring or ammy....i dunno

if you are going to keep the skorn you should change your build to a rend/hota build. The slow as hell speed of the skorn makes it way too hard, and expensive, to make ww viable. You have to stack a ton of attack speed on ur gear to keep the skorn worthwhile for a ww/sprint build.

The skorn is only 1aps. The slowest 1hander is 1.2aps, and when its dual wielded you get 15% aps bonus. Making it much easier to hit specific breakpoints and making the AS% on gear effect you more.

Ive tested the 1h vs 2h debate and my skorn is a much faster run compared to my EF/Dagger 2H's granted they arent the best, but they arent terrible.

Did you time any runs? I'm curious how much faster your 2h set was vs. the EF/dagger combo. If you used a low +aps EF you wont even break 2.23 on the MH.

A well tuned dw set can run alkaizer in under 10mins. I'd like to see the same set with a skorn do that with double tornado. You don't have to prove anything to me, but I think you are wrong.

hota mixes great with ww lol

I have seen Barbs do this. Very impressive seeing as most drop War cry and Overpower for it.

well I have resist all in places you don't if we are comparing gears. My hellfire rolled resist all, and I have a nice chunk on both my pants and belt, allowing me not to use warcry, even on mp10 (I do change my build for that, classic ww barb skills, but it takes forever to kill)

Granted the build I use currently is for mp1 farming, but Hammer does work well with RLTW/WW if you use it in the place of WotB. And using the frenzy rune vanguard keeps your MS at a decent pace.

I don't time runs...it takes me a while either way, i just play the game for fun, not min/max and time....i know that probably doesnt make any sense. If i was going for time i would be at MP0 or 1....

Anyone else noticed that his Skorn Has INT?

Drop that terribad thing and get two decent 1 handers.

I need it for the LOH...i have one that does more dmg but then i lose tons of survivability

LOH sucks on a slow weapon. Take the advice here or don't.
