My PvM ww spear barb :) *screenshots*

Just finished my pvm ww barb. Destroys everything in hell pretty easily, but throne room dolls can be scary due to my low hp . 75/75/80/75 resists in hell. Attack rating is pretty low too, but I still manage to get by due to eth rune in weapon.|||Could you post the gear ?|||ebotd ghost spear

fortitude sacred armor

arreats

draculs

gore riders

dungos

2x raven frosts

highlords



merc:

last wish collosus blade

shaftstop

vamp gaze

50% dmg reduction on the merc is really nice, makes him a pretty good tank



charms are just the best randoms i could get. if they were better my health would be a lot higher lol.|||Btw, I would switch Shaftstop away from the merc and replace it with Guardian Angel.

The fade proc will give him the 50% DR and with guardian, he will have insane resists |||Funny merc, maybe go for wrath or brand for even more epic curse|||Why ghost spear? GPA has the same average damage and range, but much lower DEX reqs -> 500more life or 50% ed extra, if only thread screen is not to show everybody your max damage.

btw: are healing potions really helpfull with 2k max life?|||I went with ghost spear because I have a hardcore 95 ww polearm barb from last ladder season and I wanted to try a spear this time. Btw, I don't have a single point in dex. All my stats are base, except for STR which I put everything into.|||nurman: the fade proc on Last Wish is only level 11 which means 31% total DR if using Guardian Angel (39% with Ber ofc). Could perhaps be a fun alternative.

StrikexForce: Would you recommend this for HC? |||I like your style.

I made a similar barb last ladder season. Almost the same exact gear. But I didn't make him a titan.

The ebotd Ghost spear was tons of fun to use. Yeah there are better weapons but I did it for the style points. I remember back in the day when the hottest weapons on the realms for barbs were burly rare pikes. Back before the xpac. I think I just wanted to replay the good ol' days.

I was thinking about trying to run a spear/polearm barb through single player untwinked some time. Maybe I'll get around to it next month.|||Quite the stylish Barb you have there. I'm jealous.
