So I just recently got into inferno mode on my barbarian and decided to go with the WW build. I am almost paragon level 1 and still have questions on where to go.
get all resist (required for inferno)
get as much crit chance as possible (core of the build)
get a HIGH DAMAGE axe/mace main hand (I prefer axe's due to their 1.3 attackspeed. can use a mighty weapon also for easier fury management/less damage)
get a dagger off hand (this is a stat stick. its damage/dps does not effect ur actual damage much at all so dont worry about spending millions on this. Just get loh/crit damage on it with str/vit/ect. l makes the build much easier, dont feel like goign that indepth, just get a fast off hand)
get just enough vit to not get insta gibbed (3 shots from a wind up)
get enough resist/armor to out heal incoming damage
get enough LoH to out heal incoming damage
dont worry about damage until u have all of the above parts. When u do get damage tho, stack crit damage. U should have around 50% crit chance with passives and no buffs. The best way to get crit damage is crit damage + socket on weapons.
Move speed is another good stat but not required stat to have. It just adds to the effectiveness of the build, helps chain packs together, lay tornados, fight off kiting mobs or help kite urself
To spin comfortably, get 40% crit minimum with axe, 30% with mighty. Keep br up at all times and make sure to keep sprint tornados on the ground at all times. they do the majority of ur damage and are ur main fury income paired with BR.
For a1, you dont need much ar (if any even) and like 500 loh
For a2, get 300-500 AR, 3.5k armor, 500-1500 LoH (depends on ur ar/armor also and how well/poorly you play the build)
for a3, minimum 500 ar, 4.4k armor, 30k hp, 500-1500 loh. 500 loh is harder but doable. Id recomend 900+ when u first enter tho.
a4, same stats as a3, but more LoH. I actually find a4 much easier than a3......
^^ all of these are WITHOUT warcry buff
Skill build:
Battle Rage: into the fray
WW: hurricane 100% move speed
Sprint: run like the wind
Bezerk: thrive on chaos or slaughter (thrive on chaos can potentialy give 100% bezerk uptime/slaughter gives the most rediculous shit show of damage ever known to man. everything on the screen will disapear)
War Cry: impunity (50% all resist buff is HUGE and 20% armor is cool :P)
last slot is generaly the perfered skill of choice:
1. overpower crushing advance : 35% damage reduction is big. It requires weapon swaping and higher skill level of fury management and grasp of the build but also lowers ur gear requirments by 35% in terms of armor/res all - im using this one because of my cruddy gear stuffs
2. frenzy/bash/cleave: fury generator to get the build going/kill single targets/kill kiting mobs
3. whatever the fak u want that fits in the build
Many people think this build is expesnive as hell but i disagree. 500 ar isnt much, 4.4k armor isnt much, 900 loh is easy to get. I built my friend a barb for 16 mill that cleared diablo infero after playing the build for no more than 5 hours (before he started his diablo treck at the start of a3). He was killing 3 elite packs at once in a4. Most of the gear i got for 500k-2mill tops. 2 pieces i spent 5mill on (chest and amy) because it fit so well with the other items. Ive actually helped 4-5 barbs transition to tank n spank and clear a2 within 3 days of transitioning. A3 is much more gear dependent, but i give it 2 weeks tops.
Even thought I wasn't the OP here I would just like to thank agadabagada. I just recently hit 60 on my barb and was wondering about stats and such for the WW build. I found your post very informative and helpful.
this my current armory:

if there are any suggestions on what i should be going for/what items to grab, please help me out! thanks!
