I can farm Act I easily enough, usually with 0-2 deaths per run. The trouble is that over a few Act I runs I may make 200k or so, which can take a few hours, and generally I don't find any items that will sell at AH. Generally everything gets vendored as I need the cash.
I have 40k HP, about 450 AR, 45ish %crit, but my character dps is only 13k, mostly due to my low dps offhand.
Should I continue to farm Act 1 or should I progress toward Act 3? I know my stats are low for Act 3, but I'm mostly getting lvl 55-58 items in Act 1 with 5 stack and I'm not making nearly enough gold to buy any upgrades anytime soon.
Thanks.
p.s. Build advice is always welcome, but I use the bash/instigation & WoTB/insanity variant for goblins and other instances where my dps is too low.
You should probly still farm act1, if you're only making 200k an hour though, it'd be better to find a GF set and do act3 nm arreat crater runs, you should be able to get 500k an hour there.
You aren't even close to being able to do act3 yet, you should have 1k resist ( self buffed ) and around the same life you have now, plus probly 25k dmg at least. I don't play a barb so i dono exactly what it takes to farm act3 but that should be the ballpark.
btw your crit seems really high considering how low dmg you have.
That's basically how I worked through Act 1 and I probably still have my shield kicking around. Seems like it was slower than the whirlnado build though. I can try that again.
Tried this for 2 runs last night, was much slower than the whirlnado build with my gear other than butcher. Had a few deaths on a champ where I was in bad position and thought I could facetank it... no such luck.
Income was only about 80k/hr, so need a better farming strategy or something.
I usually go Festering woods (2 caves, check for event) -> Leorics -> the area just next to Leorics to make sure 5 stack -> Crypts -> Halls lvl 2 -> Cursed Hold -> ruins to check for cellar.
Checked the AH.. seeing 700 dps weapons with LOH for 10-20 million and I can't even sell decent lvl 62s for 10k on the AH. /sigh

Hopefully you will get some gold/items in the process and will be able to proceed progressing in act 3, otherwise it might be painful
That's basically what I've been doing, was hoping there was a better method but it appears maybe not.
It's only been a few days that I've been looking but even a blue 800+dps weapon is several million, and that's with no LOH.
