Hello, so, I have this pretty bad geared barbarian who can't get past Gharm on Act III Inferno. A friend of mine decided to stop playing and got me a lot of gold. I'm really thinking of gearing this Barbarian with that gold. But I don't want the classic Sword and Shield Build, specially now with patch 1.04. I know I should wait for new weapons to be dropped now that they are buffed, so I was thinking of buying the rest of the gear right now. Problem is, I don't can't find a good guide about Two Handed Gearing (Chest, gloves, etc...) maybe you guys could give me advice on how to spend all this gold? I wanna clear inferno Solo. Thanks.
If I were you I'd still try to wait a bit, though the money is burning holes in your pocket.
Legendaries are much more than weapons, so maybe there are other exciting things to get. With all the changed skills etc. perhaps other builds will be good, and you need to change itemization?
AH will probably be in a frenzy for the next week, while people settle into the new patch, so stay cool, and then go on a shopping spree in my opinion
There's no 2h guides because 2h was total trash until now. Even with the buff 2h's aren't quite at the same level as dual wield but they should work okay in some builds and the gearing should be pretty much the same, get as much dps as you can and as much survivability as you can.
The new barb set looks awesome but prices are going to be insane shortly after the patch. My first Ghom kill was with a ranged barb build, if you just want to clear it once this works. Else just get enough all ress, crit chance, crit damage and strength.

I've got 70m, just turned lvl60, and I was waiting for the patch but weakening ... about to blow it all until I read this. Thanks, I needed that! I, like OP, struggled through the last 5 lvls with subpar gear so as not to spend a penny needlessly. But I think we've still got at least a week of waiting ahead of us.

When my wife's barb turned lvl50, I bought her a whole lvl 60 -10 reduced requirement set, got her up to 12k dps. She whipped through act 1-3. The set just focused on str and vit. It didn't cost more than 400k including a 950dps 2h. I think that's totally worth it for the last 10 lvls. Try it out next time.
I did this for my wiz, and it was the second most fun time I've ever had playing this game, starting Hell at 600dps, I thought I was badass. Pumped myself up to 9k dps with reduced requirement gear, thought it was ungodly - like how I thought D3 was supposed to feel like. The first was playing as an invulnerable wiz with my buddy the last day before it got patched. We beat the game with 30k dps.

Oh and they're also nerfing Ghom in many ways so you might be able to just walk in there after the patch and be able to kill him tomorrow. He was very troublesome even when you're more than geared enough to farm a3. I've been clearing just about everything in a3 (I skip the REALLY long dungeons that can spawn in fields of slaughter that only have a couple packs and a chest) but Ghom was never worth the effort.
