I play a Barbarian in Inferno, I am half way through Act II. So far I have had to skip most of the elite groups. A single Rare isn't too much problem, but it seems any elite group that has Molten, Desecration, or Plagued just tears through me, and if I try and kite them out of it. I end up hitting an enrage timer. For the most part I have to skip the rares unless I'm grouped with someone else.
My stats are
56,723 Health
9076 Armor
848 All resists
8,140 DPS
I feel like I'm taking too much damage as it is. I don't really notice the damage reduction to inferno that hit today at all. And if I sacrifice any survivability for more DPS I just get crushed. I feel like Barbarians have been thrown into a Tank only roll. In a group with a good wizard or Demon Hunter I'm fine, but its rare that I can find someone who's online that is in the same Act as I am.
My skills that i use are.
War Cry - Impunity
Revenge - Provocation
Ground Stomp - Wrenching Smash
Ignore Pain - Ignorance is Bliss
Frenzy - Sidearm
Rend - Blood Lust
If anyone has any tips about how to make things run a little more smooth in single player, please post some here. Thanks!
Your stats look fine for A2, try using Furious Charge with Dreadnaught, Threatening Shout with Falter (you can keep Ignore Pain instead of this, mostly comes down to preference, but I recommend atleast testing it) and Leap with Iron Impact instead of Groundstomp, Rend and Ignore Pain if incoming Damage is your problem, otherwise try using Wrath of the Berserker with Insanity and Earthquake with Path of Fire and ditch Leap + Threatening Shout for those two. Personally i use the latter for A2 because most of the time you can atleast kill one champion during the duration of your cooldowns which makes fighting the rest considerably easier.
For A3 on the other hand I use the former option because mobs hit like a truck and have too many hp to die to our cooldowns. I recommend you just try both options and see what works best for you.
Damage is a tad low but you should be rolling act 2 with those stats, not sure what you're doing wrong. play around with leap attack/iron impact, you are probably lacking mobility (not to mention is awesome and fun)
