unless your going for world record kills / clears etc - there is no point running 90k dps 700 res 50khp if you take on a 20+ pack of heavy hitting mobs u will get squashed - 70k dps 50khp 1k res - im a big fan of in that regard

what im finding an issue now is the the upgrades for my barb are starting to dry up and the next upgrade is in the 30+ mil mark now - and farming is starting to get boring , maybe its because im by myself and all my friends are playing wow again

i suggested this a while back but what are the chance of getting 3-4 s+b barbs in top end gear and doing clears a2 - a3 - a4 on video / streams - it would be pretty awesome to see

p.s. crit chant , crit damage and attack speed on rings , ammies ARE NOT CHEAP !!!!! lol

ok so the new yard stick is 65k?

challenge accepted

run weapon master (10% crit with mace/axe) ruthless and the stronger armor passive

take out the gem from weapon put it in your helm and put a crit gem in your weapon

11k+ armor and 700 resists means your two armor passives are being made redundant

weapon is bad dps wise but the stats its providing is amazing so dont ditch it and use it as a guide for when you want to upgrade it

before going into the negatives ill tell you what you have thats amazing - your shoulders and bracers - DO NOT sell them

make a star amethyst and smash it in your helm (16% life)

amulet go for a seach with 90 vit - 28 all resist and see what you can get, sometimes you can get decent life% loh etc etc
chest seach for 90 vit - 3 sockets - 48 all resist - search for str on top
pants search for 90 vit - 2 sockets - 48 all resist - search for str on top
get an all resist ring for ONE slot with 60 vit 60 str

ok and now the cheat seach for a sacred shield with amazing stats and dont put in all resist

so 60 str 60 vit 10%+ life
or 9% crit 60 vit 60 str

someone did say pre 1.03 that barbs were going to be the most over-powered class once geared, over the last couple of weeks ive been seeing it - with wotb and full 5 stacks of frenzy elites with 2mil hp get melted in seconds without EQ

SO MUCH FUN !!!!!!!!!!

got a few new pieces over the weekend to fortify the defences and now pushing the str again to the magic 2k mark

holy crap thats alot of str / resists !!!!

Do you farm act3 with that setup?

90% of all elite/champs packs the last 10% is the hardhitting with insane affixes - weekend farming will soon finish that

oh and i will get a screenie of my stats/gear after work tonight so you can all have a perve !!!!!

im running andy's with 700res and 45k life and im fine (54k dps) and im running a 12% block shield hahahaha - one with a socket is around 4-5 mil ish

+1 +1 +1 +1 +1 +1 +1

also ring, neck and off hand damage would be AMAZING aswell its very hard to search what the right prices are when there is no field to search it with

tldr ; you have the stats a blue sacred shield can have

Blame the Poison Resistance...

The Int/Vit is split, that's why it's so low.

Beward of 7 affix items.

It's a crazy good item though no doubt.

the int/vit is ONE 'affix'

instead of poison it could fo rolled a str/dex and it could have 8 slots for 6 affixes........

oh 3 stack desecrator + the cutters were the only things that were taking chunks of hp off
