    Quote from Kallizk»

    Let's hope it's not a lost ark version of Diablo, it might seem too late at this point but diablo 3 isn't more because blizzard doesn't want to, there's too many good ideas out there to improve the game greatly that they ignore, to me it seems they want to milk wow a bit more before fully investing in a new rpg (mmo specially).

    Why not? Lost ark seems perfect and will be much better in diablo dark fantasy setting

    posted a message on Blizzcon 2016 Schedule + Map revealed
    Quote from Bagstone»

    The schedule really doesn't have anything. They'd have to kick out some other game's announced session, and that'd cause riots in those game's community... so not gonna happen.

    Sry for bad english. But if we check 2014's schedule we can see that there is no panels about OW, similar to any blizzcon when new expansion for any game is announced they cant just add unannounced project to a schedule because it would spoil and be pretty weird. And even after the annouce they talk much about new stuff and time for that magically appears. They can keep a secret when they want to. HYPE TRAIN MUST GO ON.

    Thunderfury procs ~1 per second from WW even if only 1 mob is near. Yes unfortunatly Arcane Skills cannot be enchanted but as i said before it increase proc damage and considering how much damage it does arcane skills seems pretty fine.

    posted a message on WW/Frenzy hybrid barbarian in proc gear. Perfect for farming any Torment.
    Hey guys. Im sorry if my english is not very well.

    I want to introduce my vision of barbarian playstyle. This build will allow you to reach as much DPS as it possible for a barbarian. And make colossal massacre with rain of blood and flesh. Fountains of numbers included. Enjoy.

    Itemization will be crucial part of the build because proc gear is a main source of DPS. Note: I am going to talk not about DPS number in statistic tab but about effective DPS

    1. Skills: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/barbarian#WPdhRk!ZYdj!YcZYYb

    Core idea is to do damage only with lighting school. Other spells will be used just for increasing damage and survivability.

    Frenzy - main single target DPS skill also uses when out of fury. Also if you have enough healing in fight with elite pack you can directly focus elite mob minions will die because of passive AOE
    Wrath of the Berserker - more survivable than dps skill. Uses in hard situations to dramatically increase self healing.
    Overpower - good additional damage and crit chance.
    Whirlwind - main multiple targets skill uses on 2 and more targets. This rune generates enough fury.
    Battle Rage - Nice buff that increase damage and crit chance per mob near you. You should spam it every time(almost time) you have free fury to self healing espesially during Wrath of the Berserker.
    War Cry - armor buff with hp regeneration rune. In RoS hp regen works really fine.
    Note: I prefer change Rampage to Relentless on boss fights.

    2. Paragon points:

    Core:

    Movement speed to cap(25%) its optional but i prefer to run fast. All other stats in Strength.

    Offense: I prefer attack speed then crit chance because of life per hit but if you survive well crit chance and crit damage will give more dps.

    Defense: Life regen extremly useful especially with War Cry rune choice. Resistance is second stat we need ~1400 to farm Torment 6.

    Utility:
    Life per hit is best choice because its hard to survive after lifesteal nerf.

    3. Itemization: The most important thing. We need a proc gear to reach maximum viable dps.

    DPS stats: Try to get at least 30%-40% crit chance, 200-300% crit damage and as much as possible strength and lighting skills damage.
    Defensive stats:You can forget about armor you will get enough from strength and gear. Dont stack hp over 300k if you have a opportunity to reroll it in resistance. Try to get as much as possible life per hit and life regen but never sarifice damage or resistances for it.

    Amulet(core and heart of build): http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/moonlight-ward

    This item just mega OP it makes ~50% overall dps. Each Arcane ball detonates about 2 times per second on a single target and more often on multiple targets.Only problem of this item that it has very low drop chance for a barbarian because of +arcane skills properity. I found a solution to this problem in a rumor that loot generation depends on type of magic school that you chose in your build. Having a wizard with 6 arcane skills build will cause this amulet to have increased chance of drop. As it's only rumor i can`t guarantee that this solution will help you, but for me it worked as a charm. Dont worry about arcane skills because it buffs proc damage so its fine.

    All other items should have lighting skill damage because of maximum scale potential with a barbarian skills and weapons listed below.

    Helm:http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/andariels-visage

    Andraviel`s Visage has really nice build in stats and a juice proc with additional damage.

    Boots: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/fire-walkers

    A Perfect choice with whirlwind in a build.

    Main hand weapon: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/odyn-son

    Great chain lighting proc in addition to bonus lighting skills damage and a nice scale with Weapon master passive. I prefer this one in main hand because of 5% crit chance.

    Off hand weapon: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/thunderfury-blessed-blade-of-the-windseeker

    Very powerful and frequent proc. Perfect choice for an offhand.

    Shoulders: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/death-watch-mantle

    This shoulders have not the best but still a decent proc. Can be replaced with any other good shoulders of your choice

    Chest: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/tyraels-might

    Personally i like additional dmg to demons but this chest can be replaced with Immortal king`s or any other good chest depending on what zones you are farming or any other reasons.

    Pants: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/pox-faulds

    And again decent AoE proc with high primary stats.

    1st ring: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/bulkathoss-wedding-band

    Incredible bouns healing in massive fights. This ring can steal up to 3k hp per second from each regular monster and up to 9k from boss monsters in melee range.

    2nd ring: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/stone-of-jordan

    As there are no problems with trash mobs this ring will be perfect choice how handling an elite packs. Also it can have 15%-20% additional lighting skill damage.

    Belt: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/item/thundergods-vigor

    Another lighting skills and fine aoe proc.

    Gloves: Still missing at Blizzard site, so i would recommend to use any decent gloves with crit chance, crit damage, strength and all resistance.

    4. Сonclusion:
    Pros: Insane amounts of damage, high survivability.
    Cons: Hard to get amulet.

    Example of killing a blacksmith's wife(~440kk hp) and some thrash mobs on t6: http://youtu.be/Bdd_5WlxvQI
    In current gear i can easily farm T4 without any real problems. The only minor difficulties are elites with electrificate affix because of damage done by it.

    5. Links:
    You can inspect my current itemization and skills at http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Konus-2139/hero/14857 (note: armory still incorrectly displays enchanting)

    Also if you want to see how this build works you can join my stream at http://www.twitch.tv/thekonus (Because of some technical issues there will be no sound for a sometime, sorry :( )

    Thank you for reading. I hope this build will help you with conquering Sanctuary.
