How mutch gold do u spend on a good goldfinding set?

[Haaken]

Lol, the only mobs that run away from me are usually 1 shotted before they get to run. Others get pulled towards me by my abilities. Barbs aren't too bad for botting really.

They can be botted, but compared to an equally geared DH, you will get your ass raped repeatedly.

 

[Toney001]

Difficult as in 'not getting the same GPH as other classes'.

Because of melee chasing mobs without hitting them on the run (waiting for the mob to stand still before hitting, or waiting for the mob to get stuck)
Also chasing mobs the wrong way for 50 yards only to decide to ignore it and then continue the correct way.
Having to run back to profile checkpoints because it chased a mob too far, where a caster can kill it from ranged and still be close to profile checkpoint.
Barbs often not hitting phase beast and the big fat blobs with normal left click attack, having to wait for cd on other skills (for example charge) to kill them.
Barbs running away from mobs before charging it, like it needs some kind of minimum distance.
More prone to get stuck.

All these things adds up, and cost you a lot of time every run, which means less GPH.

I bot barbs on all my accounts, and have no issue 1 shotting every single mob but elites. You just got to invest in the right gear.
The downside is that they're very popular farmers, and GF is really expensive nowadays. In the end, it's just 1 day of botting, so no biggie.

@ OP: You can get movement speed on other pieces than boots. I normally use Unity (ring) and Hammer Jammers (pants), to push me to 25% movement speed.

do you mean dying or gph? cause DH's do have an advantage when running through nightmare but I wouldn't think they are any worse for inferno

I'm pretty sure it's the same stupid movement/combat routine issue that I saw in honorbuddy, once the API allows routines to override movement, it will be fixed.

Not sure if they are doing anything about the way points, but the targeting is getting rewritten. I would guess they have updates planned, would have to do with pathing.

Trying changing your combat routine so your primary is a higher priority (the order it's listed in.) I've noticed some abilities will tie it up if you have them set before it.

I have noticed this, each time I looked at the diagnostic log it appeared the bot was following the waypoints in an attempt to gather more adds and move faster but then the combat routine gets activated so it just doesn't die while running and then your ability sends you flying backwards. It shouldn't be difficult later on to only use those abilities on adds in front of you...

depends on your profile and how well you kill stuff :S

GF: 263%
PUR: 41
MS: 61% (Constantly sprint)

15k dps

Barb got problems, don't try and tell me they don't. lol

Working fine for me (with another bot though):



They all have similar stats, except the one on the bottom right (right monitor):

GF: ~250% (the right one has ~230%)
PUR: ~45-50
MS: 25% Unbuffed
DPS: ~20k Unbuffed (the right one has ~15k)

Of course they got SOME issues, but for the most part it goes like a truck.
If you mean that your problems are bot related and not class related, then ignore me. I'm not using DB.

Yes, bot related... Obviously other bots had time to iron out issues, if it were strictly a class issue, I would use one of my other 60s


I know updates are coming soon that will address at least some of these things, so it's not that I'm worried too much, I'm just saying, as it is right now, barb with DB is probably the class that brings in the least GPH.

T_T it's not that they had time to iron out the issues, it's that they work completely differently...completely different...

and even with the nav server issue and other hickups, I can still get up to 300k with crap gear, low movement speed, and one piece of +range.

[15:39:39.896 N] Number of games completed:91
[15:39:39.899 N] Last run acquired 10696 gold.
[15:39:39.900 N] Current Gold per Hour: 313835

This is what I'm getting with:

GF: 263%
PUR: 41
MS: 61% (Constantly sprint)
DPS: 15K

If you're getting 300k with crappy gear, please share your secrets.

And how are they working completely different, are you saying it will never get better?

Yes, some of it... I think it's like 10% of the value on your follower get's added to your own.

 

[Bigbadwolf]

Off to the AH it is then
