i buy stuff with +armor and either fire or physical resist
oh and most useless resist is arcane, even with 1.5k arcane you're still going to die quickly to a arcane beam
This.
I have just lvld up a barb. I geared out from this philosphy:
I sure want all res, armor, str and vita (for items that doesn't have crit). But that's too expensive for most. So i had to prioritize. Shoulders and belts can have up to 300 strenght. So I would want over 200 str on these pieces. At the same time, chest and pants can have up to 300 vita.. AND sockets. So you can get ALOT of str and vita from the pants. So i figured out I'd prioritize vita and str. And drop all res on the chest and pants and rather add fire/phys res and armor - if it's available. And then i sacked vita on belt and shoulders and got alot of str and dual resists (fire/phys + all res). I would guess many orders have geared their barbs in this, rather cheap, way.
Get a little more loh. Get you phys and fire res above 900 (at least). And a better shield. Get enchant for more armor so you can sack one of you armor passives for a offensive passive. Many undervalue dps and only stack def. Your hp is fine, and you can sack some for more res imo.
Well yeah. We all know the story of the ias nerf. Cut in half. Will we see something similar in the near future? And what kind of stat could be thrown under the nerfhammer?
Crit is being stacked just lik ias was stacked before the nerf. Will there be ever be a cap for crit? Or reduced crit damage on socketed gems? Is crit stacking too good?
Another stat that comes to my mind is loh. Should it be nerfed in any way? Like 50% in inferno? A cap?
I find this very interesting, because a lot of items will get it's value greatly reduced. Like weapons with loh and socket (crit dmg). And if it was ever to happen-- weapons with high stats (like str and vita) would be of much more value.
