You run more resist than myself and more overall healing.
Thats my setup atm
That weapon is my offhand and I linked it for a reason.
You want to make sure your offhand is a HUGE stat stick. Offhand Dps means jack shit.
Tornadoes only do DPS on your Mainhand. So focus on getting a super hard hitter mainhand and a massive stat stick on your offhand.
Lifesteal / Life on hit on some of your gear is still good...tbh i barely have enough i just cant find upgrades or even slight downgrades with enough to be worth it atm.
I was at about the same place as you last week when I decided to pick up the WW spec, and these are a couple of things that really helped me.
First, make sure that your crit is over 40%; I was running about 46%, and that seemed to generate enough fury--maybe even too much, especially during WoTB. Also, don't skimp on Crit Damage. Once you have a ton of Crit, Crit Damage is going to increase your damage exponentially.
Make sure that you have enough life just to survive. The first time I walked into the keep in Act 3, I got one shot by the fire on the ground. You don't even want to know how much I got raped on elite packs. I felt comfortable up around 40k, but less would probably be alright if you had more resist.
Pick a third passive that actually serves you well. You have to have Relentless (or whichever increases your crit and crit damage) and Weapon Master, preferably with an axe or mace, but the third passive is actually really important. If you need more armor, both +armor passives are decent. I experimented with quite a few, and my favorite by far were Bloodthirst and Superstition. I would personally recommend Bloodthirst if you don't have lifesteal on your belt, but I would suggest to just get a good mighty belt with lifesteal and pick up Superstition. In Act 3, what's going to be fucking you up the most is Champion Ground AoE and white mobs (especially moloks) fucking you up from afar.
The benefits of Superstition, then, are two fold. One, you reduce the most dangerous damage you'll be taking by 20%, more than either of the armor passives--a pretty big deal. Aside from that, though, Superstition allows you to sit in ground AoE without WotB. Without WotB, your fury regeneration won't be high enough to spam Sprint AND WW, but because ground AoE ticks like 500 times a second, you're going to be generating fury like crazy and can thus spam WW, leading to more fury generation, greater WW uptime and therefore greater damage output, and more regen from life on hit.
The best advice that I can give you, though, is that it's A LOT harder to farm Act 3 than Act 2. When you look at the people who are farming Act 3, they have 50% crit, 500% crit damage, 40k HP, 800 RA, and 70k+ damage. Unless you're willing to drop 100 million on gear to farm Act 3, I would suggest going to Act 2 to farm. You don't need a lot of gear, you can learn the spec, it's much more fun because you won't be ramming your head into a wall for hours, and because you're moving quicker, you'll be more efficient at the end of the day.
TL;DR Superstition is underrated; if you're dying, then get it. If you're still dying, buy more gear or go farm Act 2.
there you go...didn't wana link the pic inside forum cuz its kinda big and looks stupid cuz i put it together in 30 seconds lol
im going for MF on every item so my dps prob won't go up anymore unless I get a really good MH...mine blows shit but w/e I found it and it was better tornado dmg than my old one.
Jello how are you staying alive with those stats? Do you kite with your tornadoes? i.e. not whirlwinding for dmg
Depends on the pack. I only farm Act 3. Stonefort > All 3 Keep levels > Bunker/Fortified Bunker > clear all fields then seigebreaker then finish the whole act from there.
The only things I have to be really careful with is Occultists and Moloks.
Most packs I can just sprint and whirlwind through packs and never really drop too low. Most of what I do is never kill trash intentionally. I use trash as a way to heal to full while kiting elites(if it is a pack I need kited). With Slaughter on Wrath I can usually find 2 elite packs and kite them together and blow everything up at once. If I get scorpions or fallen ones or those big demos with 1 mace I can just kill them by aoeing all over them...they hit for nothing. Other packs I just kite 2-4 packs together and slaughter them down in a few seconds.
For clearing I just whirlwind through trash and it dies to tornadoes as I continue on since mine crit for upwards for 28k+ at like .4 attack speed on them? Since I have quite a bit of IAS.
As for how many times i'll die in a full clear of what I stated I clear. My avg death count is 1-3 per run. Usually due to me being bad and overreaching what my low level of resist and healing can pull off or just a stupid set of packs like Jailer/Waller/Dese/Molten...without wrath up those are hell.
Your gear is fine and you should be able to farm A3 quite easily with that gear. Practice a lot more as it's an L2P issue. When you die, don't just take it as a death, look at how you died and ask yourself how you could of avoided it.
Google "youtube double tornado barb dino". He has some great videos and was one of the first WW barbs going around.
Would anyone be able to please help me in-game with my barb? I've been loving this spec, but so far I'm stuck in Act 1 Inferno. I've cleared Act 2 as a sword and board. I'm really at a loss on what to work on. As well as what to do to actually come up with the ridiculous sums of money I need to buy anything worthwhile. So far I can typically waiver around 500k-1,000,000. Any help would definitely be SO appreciated!

I managed to get 42% crit chance buffed by buying some new gloves and a 473 dps OH with 750 LoH and CD + Socketted CD.
Still dying a bit but not as much but I don't have the godly gear that I've seen some streamers with so I guess its okay lol

Other than that its just the playstyle really.
