pvp war cry barb - viable?

I'm thinking to make pvp war cry barb.

+ areat face ( i'm trying to find +3 BO, +3 warcry barb helm to make delirium, or 3 warcries 20 fcr circlet )

+ enigma

+ 2 barb 20 fcr amulet

+ hoto

+ storm shield "ber"

+ arach

+ trangoul's gloves

+ 1x 10 fcr ring and 1x soj

+ ht, anni and 9x warcries charm.

Level 42 warcry deal about 1700 damage, so pvp warcry barb is viable, or not?

thanks for advance|||Arreats - Rather crappy for a warcry barb giving quite a few useless stats for a build that requires other stats. Shako or a decent circlet is your best bet to be honest for the huge amounts of mana and the same amount of skills as arreats. Str/Dex is rather unneeded largely.

Enigma - Personally I'd advise a breast plate or mage plate basically whatever your Str is after Anni/torch combined. Your a caster so act like it :P

2/20 - Good Choice get some mana if possible though.

Hoto - Personally not the best choice , Wizardspike or spirit crystal sword would be more beneficial for the massive mana increase as barbs get pitiful returns on mana from level ups and stats so you need to get a lot of straight mana bonuses to cast a decent amount of mana intensive warcries.

storm shield "ber" - Warcry is blockable and killed by damage reduce so I'd stick with Caster duels. In this case a wizzy/hoto/spirit would be better choice for all but druids which the extra damage reduce will come in handy.

Arach - No other choice

Trangoul's gloves - I prefer frostburns for the 40% mana increase if you don't need the cast otherwise I'd use magefists.

1 fcr/soj - Fine.

Good caster craft boots are essential to be honest for boots.



They are extremely mana intensive even when chugging blues during the duel without some serious straight mana bonuses.

My favourite is 1 Wizzy(15 res jewel) 1 Spirit with 35 cast 112 mana. This has the upside of having really decent FHR quickly.



They are expensive to get to a stage where they are able to compete with competent duelers and are extremely fun but for general public games you might kill a few characters if your mana doesn't run out.

Trust me you need quite a bit of mana to compete for a average amount of time which is usually the reason they are expensive to make.



I should really emphasis that this barb is my favourite overall character and has not had the most wealth spent on him although amulet,boots and circlet require significant upgrades for perfection. Hes sitting at between 7k hp and 1.6k-2.3k mana depending on weapon choices.|||1700/6 --> 283 pvp dmg
