Looking for an Old Barb Guide (Hybrid Throw / WW with Hyperion Javs)

[:1]Saw a guide a long time ago and Im trying to find it. Its for a hyrbid throw/WW barb that uses hyperion javelins.|||Something like this?

It really is old - it's for .09 so unless you play single player you won't get much use of it today.|||Quote:

That's not the guide. This is it: jav barb

I tried to rebuild him last fall when I came back for a bit. With eth replenish javs he's playable, but--sadly--nowhere near as lethal as he was in .09.

ah nice I have always wanted to try the build, but never got around to it. Just got some 296 ed / 40 ias / fools Hyperions so I am going to test it out. Going to possibly try it with a +2 Barb 30 Frw 2os visionary helm.

May also try an open wound oriented build with a crow caw / dracs / gores / possbily a nice 24 fhr / OW belt.|||Quote:

AR is an issue since they nuked the 08 arreats, but it's pretty hard to beat competent barbs now anyway. Using 2x Ravenfrosts, 09 Arreats with ed/ias jewel and enough dex for max block, I had plenty of AR to hit just about anyone else. Make sure you stack resists, and think about pushing the absorb limit and you can still own a lot of pubby duels.|||Quote:

As for charms I am going to go with a combination of 3/3/xx and 3/xx/20s. How many of each you think would be best? Will prob keep some 3/11s or 3/5s in stash for stacked resists.|||Quote:

I tried the 160/60 armor and ended up opting for enigma. I never bothered putting the time in to get good at it, but even my crappy tele-zerks caught people enough to make it useful. I like the extra life you end up with, too. If you opt for that route, all 3/xx/20. I actually found r/w to be less useful these days, because most duelers--especially pubbys--seem to have no clue how to run, since most barbs teleport these days. I found it much easier to catch people with less r/w (Only one point in increase speed, too). One other variation I found useful was having a botd ghost spear in the stash. Waiting for the eth replenish javs to replenish is kind of a drag, so it's fun to mix things up a bit with the spear.
