I've been using Revenge (with Provocation rune for 30% proc on hit) since the beginning.
I was wondering if I should be switching to Overpower (with Revel rune for healing).
I'm at 40% crit.
Revenge hits at 220% weapon damage. Overpower hits at 165% weapon damage. Revenge gives 5% health per target hit. Overpower (with rune) gives 8% health per target hit.
At my crit level.. should I be using Overpower? Even though it hits for less damage but heals for more?
I'm at 471 LOH and 536 Life per sec. at 48k health.
I really don't think Overpower is on the level of Revenge, except with Crushing Advance in a select few situations, namely, when there's lots of ticking damage, such as molten, Ghom clouds, plague, etc. Revenge may do less healing than Overpower, but really, you gotta think of how much of that is overhealing. To me, the consistent healing of Revenge is much better. It's served me well all the way through Inferno Diablo.
Im now at 55% crit for 12 sec after a revenge proc. I took then Best Served Cold rune for 10% extra crit for 12 seconds.
This led me to change my Battle Rage and Wrath runes.
I took Bloodshed with Battle Rage which seems to work well when I'm critting for 100k. It takes 20% of the damage dealt and spreads it to everything else near the target.
Wrath i changed the rune to Slaughter. Again once I crit it blows up everything around that target for 155% weapon damage. With 55% crit.. I can burn down champ packs in seconds.. like five seconds now it's insane. Health link packs are my new favorite lol. They go down in 2-3 seconds if I'm lucky with the crits.
Really liking this spec. It's not the boring WW spec every other barb with high crit plays. It's go in there with both weapons and face tank them down in seconds.. then move onto the next pack.
