Hey all, I need to upgrade some pieces of my gear. I just finished A4, but it was not without some significant difficulties. A3 is generally fine with minimal deaths, but I would like to make my life a little easier going forward with farming and paragon leveling.
I prefer to be more defensive but I have switched to a high LOH 2H and would be open to dual wielding or sword and board. Keeping that in mind, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Its a lot easier to shop the AH with something in mind than blindly not know where my biggest upgrade might come from.
I used to follow full defensive builds before I quit my barb.. but after coming back to D3, I just revived my barb with crit build -- and I'm loving it! I would suggest stacking some crit hit dmg and crit hit chance with str for full dps output. Rend and revenge should keep you healthy through out the fights
I took a simpler approach because I don't really like dealing with the AH, so I went only for basic stats, no crit, no LoH, no lifesteal, Rend and Revenge give more than enough sustainance, not to mention a lot of DPS, considering I roll 40K with Battle Rage.
I cleared Inferno on 1.03, with a similar item setup(DW instead of 2H), haven't tried A4 on 1.04.
But with this build I never get killed on A3, save for very specific champ packs and fucking up really hard.
Cleave works really good for me, quite often I am able to kill champ packs by jumping in the middle of them and not moving an inch, very barbaric, and satisfactory with the way Cleave is presented and the damage it does with Broad Sweep, really fun.
Leap with Iron impact is no brainer, GTFO/Leroy Jenkins/Mitigation CD/Slow, all in one button!!!
My companion is always the Enchantress, because 15% more armor plus the DPS boosters she gives, it's just fantastic, even more because I am almost always soloing. Sadly no skill for the 1st tier, because I hate both charm and the pushback, they always move the enemy out of position and end up wasting leaps/reveng procs/Rend fury cost
