    posted a message on Barb Gear/Stat Priority Questions
    Hello all, this is my first time posting here and i was wondering about some things to improve my barb. currently i am comfortable doing T6 i kill enemies fast but i get wrecked by about half of the elites i encounter. this is without the Unity ring. Some one recently told me that barbs require a certain amount of all resist. Now my toughness is fairly low simply because i sacrifice toughness for damage in as many places i can. just curious how many good players end up with +1 million DPS and +10 million toughness.

    now imagine that each item you have in each slot has its ideal stats to role. now i wont list numbers but i will list the stats that i believe should be on that piece so please if anyone sees something wrong with my list let me know. i will be referring to certain pieces of my gear in some situations because they might role specific stats, such as SoJ and Cinder Coat. I am speaking for a Fire Leap Quake Build.

    Helm
    Strength
    Vitality
    CHC
    Socket (CDR Gem)

    Shoulders
    Strength
    Vitality
    CDR
    EQ % Damage

    Cindercoat
    % Fire Damage
    Strength
    EQ % Damage
    Socket (3) (Strength)

    Magefist
    % Fire Damage
    Strength
    CDR
    CHC
    CHD

    Bracers
    % Fire Damage
    Strength
    Vitality
    CHC

    Pants
    Strength
    Vitality
    Movement speed (I guess MS could be swapped for a defensive stat and increase my MS solely through Paragons)
    Sockets (2) (Strength Gems)

    Boots
    Strength
    Vitality
    Resist all
    Movement speed

    Belt
    Strength
    Vitality
    Resist all
    Life %

    Ring 1
    Strength
    CHC
    CHD = CDR
    Socket

    Ring 2 (SoJ)
    % Fire Damage
    Strength
    % Elite Damage
    Socket

    Neck
    % Fire Damage
    Strength
    CHC
    Socket

    2H Weapon
    Damage
    Strength
    % Fire Damage
    Socket
    % damage or CDR with the gift



    So there is my list, now i know that CDR and sockets dont add to the Sheet DPS and know that Sheet DPS isn't everything. but the sheet Toughness is still important and this is something that i would really like direction on. if anyone out ther can help that would be fantastic
