    Great video. I just lost 1 week ago a HC, SSF Barb. Normal and Nightmare was a cakewalk. I would say that throwing is one of the best builds to level up a barb from the start. Decent damage with almost any throwing weapon, low mana costs and very high survability for a "ranged"class. The problem was Inferno, of course. I could not find any weapon which other damage types than physical, plus a big missplay, ended my run. Hope I found before your video because there are some great tips😅.

    Thank you! Condoleances on your barb. It's much better than people give it credit for in the early game. I had the same problem in my run. Which is why I went for the act 3 mercenary to get fire damage as well. It was far from perfect but it definitely got the job done. Glad you like the video :)

    It does, but it gets the same penalty that all ranged attacks do. So while CB in melee does 25% to normal enemies and 12.5% to champions/uniques/bosses, thrown weapons will do half that (12.5% and 6.25% respectively).

    actually a3 mercs are the worst option imo. for physical builds like this i can't think of a better options than a2 merc with might aura and a reaper's toll, or, if you aren't lucky to get the RT, pick the a5 merc and make him a "lawbringer" rw. the a5 merc is overall tankier and has no hit recovery animation, and the lawbringer isn't that hard to farm for. feel free to try this in your next phys build run.

    I'm really lucky to see your video, I'm curious about your general opinion about the barbarian. I like to get levels without using the "war cry" ability, just with the "doube swing" or "frenzy" abilities, but it's very difficult. "project diablo 2" solved this by giving area damage, but I want the barbarian to have his rightful place in the original version. Am I missing something? Does the barbarian really have an advantage or does he need to be buffed? Last year the dev team made an update. But isn't it still unnecessarily difficult for the barbarian to level up? I don't like the "war cry" ability. A barbarian who deals damage by shouting is funny to me. Please tell me this is not the only fast way

  • @thenuclearrabbit

    @thenuclearrabbit

    21 күн бұрын

    Kind of yes and kind of no. The barbarian needs to very consistently upgrade his damage. Making sure that you have a very high chance to hit also helps a ton. But it will still be slower than the other classes. It's kind of a if you know how to do it, it's not as bad kind of thing. Make sure you hit level 25 in the Flayer Jungle on as high a players count as you can do. That will make act 4 a lot easier. Which grants you acces to eldritch in act 5. Whom you can farm all the way to lvl 35 if you want. Terror zones can be done up to lvl 45-50 ish. But it will take longer than on the other classes. I don't think the barb needs a buff, however I do think melee weapons in general need a buff. The speedrun strat is leap attacking. So I'm gonna say that is the fastest way to do your barb. If your ever stuck on why things are taking long, just look at how speedrunners do it, they know their stuff.

D2/D2R are both basically unfinished games with often a bit of ignorance lol. In short, players over time have learned to make lemonade with the lemons Blizzard forced us to have.

    @@thenuclearrabbit hmm what would you consider right gear? Like in the case of a throw Barbarian, in general, I think it’s better off changing some of your thoughts of how to play it. The “popular” build to level is telling you to double swing and mace your way through the game. It works but to me, that’s probably best used as a boss or champ killer and should be on swap for you, not your main skill. That works nicely in the throw package anyways since you have to get it. Double throw allows a form of minor AoE early on. I’ve considered it more of a caster even though it’s physical. If you compare it to say a fireball sorc or hammerdin, you have a window of time where it’s actually better in some cases than those builds. Of course both of them have way better scaling potential. Eventually you are right your going to need war-shrike and lacerator as best in slot gear. But I think most people just don’t realize the options you have until you find or trade for those, which causes the it’s hard spill. I think more or less it’s not luck, it’s timing. You need to know when and where to look for certain weapons.
