I already opened a post about this issue but seeing as thread is dying down, I'm still fighting to get this damn meat sack to work until Blizzard realizes we need to get buffed, asap.
I have 35k hp, and 650 avg to resist all, with 8.5k dps, AND I STILL GET SMACKED DOWN LIKE NOTHING. Please don't tell me I'm missing vitality, because people told me 30-35k is enough if you have enough resists.
I'm -this- close to just throwing this useless toon.
Spent countless hours on builds and currently using Psy Starcraft's build, which is the only one I liked so far. No, I'm really not going to kite with seismic slam like a retard.
This is really making me rage and I have on idea why this class needs x4 the gear of everyone else to survive or to actually be viable. As said before, I have friends with half my gear running around killing elites in act 2.
WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING WRONG. SERIOUSLY.
Is it me or this class is just useless except for very specific people who get money \ item fed by fanboys?
Need more dps. Hunt the AH for a high dps wpn. As for dying, we're a melee class, and even with kiting we're going to die a lot. That just means you have to kill them before, or as, they're killing you.
Edit - I went from 7k dps and 72k hp (thinking survivability was the way), to 18k dps and 40k hp and I smoke act1 inferno. Starting to chip at act2.

I'm starting in act2 with 40k hp 700ish resist 12,5k dps (2hander since i don't have a proper 1hander) and 6.5k armor, feels like I lack a little of everything though. I can just barely get some champ packs down and farming maghda with a few nephelem buffs. I like that it is actually hard and my gear can still easily have some major upgrades. Barb is great once you have the gear just keep at it
As for spec cleave/revenge/groundstomp/ignore pain/berserker/armor shout, on champ packs I regularly have to kite a bit when ignore pain is on cd, usually kill it when using berserker for the 2nd time if I survived that long.

While i agree is stupid, sometimes you just have to do it.

72k life. He said he went from 7k DPS to 18k DPS. 29k is pretty top-notch afaik.
How much armor do you have?
Yeah as the other person stated, I went to 18k dps. 29k is really good, how's your armor/hp/resist?
