anyway, I keep reading the boards over and over and I see all these different builds that work good with really good gear etc.
I just need a hand if you could with what you think an effective spec would be with my gear... as you can see im broke and need to start farming badly.
I really appreciate any time/ help you guys can give!
Your defensive stats are way higher than whats required in act 1. I cant see your passives, but you can definitly go all out dps on those with weapon master, ruthless and maybe berserker rage, depending on spec. I'd say go with revenge with 30% proc rune instead of ignore pain, you dont need that skill in act 1, especially with those resist stats. I've only played 2 hand in inferno so i dont really know what secondary skills are best for tanks, but i would probably get something with some aoe to speed things up.
Pick up Revenge with provocation. It is your bread-and-butter skill as a melee barbarian. The other 5 slots are completely up to your preference in act 1, but a nice synergy is: Earthquake/WOTB, Frenzy/Battle Rage, and any of the three defensive skills (leap, ignore pain with lifesteal, or Furious charge with dreadnaught).
Gear-wise, all you really need is a high dps 1 hander with a high block value/block % shield. You can pick up a 900+ DPS and a decent Sacred shield with 3 primary properties on them for less than 1 mil; if you're really broke, then spend a few dollars on the RMAH on a weapon and shield and you should be sweet.
You've got huge resists but no STR or VIT. I recommend you to get more STR because it will both help your damage and give you armor. You honestly only need 300-500 res for act 1.
Just wanted to say thanks! Ill look at some different things that are more damage focused.
at the moment, if i remove my Shield and add another weapon my Dps plummets. so im thinking of adding some of those combos rage/frenzy and earthquake/supersaijan, ill play around anyway, but the over arching theme of "crank the dmg up to farm a1" has been heard! much appreciated.
