Best Barb Build for Champion Farming 1.0.4?

I'm using it now, its very effective for botting because the bot doesnt have to do much to stay alive (in contrast to the whirlwind build I was using prior to this which died often). It is farming act 2 with no resists (50k unbuffed DPS though) and at 0 deaths/hour currently. On my second bot (also barb) i'm running weapon throw build with Giles' new combat behaviours and the new 300th spear and it is GREAT, running with only 20k unbuffed DPS + 200% magic find and no resists, and it hasnt died once..

link to the 2nd build please?
 
I used the 2h build and I die on a constant basis. i have 900 resis. 35k unbuffed dps, 40k hp
 
imm belt with weapon throw -5 fury
soj with weapon throw -5 fury

do u know what it means? :D

What is this 300th spear? -_-
 
im using this: Barbarian - Game Guide - Diablo III

(buffed)
37k dps
800 all resist
500 LoH
8k armor
44k life
19% block 3700-4700

GilesCombatReplacer

i run act 2 with 0 deaths per hour and act 3 with 3-4 deaths/hour

I run a2 with

1100 ar
750loh
11,5k armor
39k hp
19k dps base (25k buffed)

and I still average 1-2 deaths per hour.

just because the number says 0 doesnt mean that you actually dont die in a2.

There is the build that I run and my version is much more tankier than yours, but you are somehow dieing less?

I highly doubt you are running a3 with 3 deaths per hour. Thats ridiculous.
 
Try my build with GilesCombatReplacer.
Dont know if its showing wrong but i have had no problems since the new patch and havnt seen it die in act 2.

I think you should change your passive, im pretty sure you dont need 11,5k armor. I had more problems with 10k armor and 34k dps then 8k armor and 37k dps.

Do you run with avoidance off?

I think ruthlessness is better than brawler. 8 yards is small, and none elites aren't the issue, it's the rares and elites that are...so IMO that is pretty worthless when you are fighting 1 rare or even after you kill 1 of the 3 mob champ pack.
 
Someone try this with decent crit chance and let me know how it goes, ;)

I'm using overpower instead of WotB, everything else is the same. I have 39% crit and use Giles combat plugin.
Weapon throw and rend dont work together well in this plugin, sometimes bot spends last fury to rend single white mob, and sometimes it doesnt use it frequently enough when fighting strong group of elites and dies (act 2).

Interesting build. I'm guessing you are dual wielding?

Hm, is this guy trolling? running with 20k DPS and no resist..and do not die? hm..
 
I just started to bot a barb, bought decent items that can bot on MP4 without any deaths at a fast rate. All my items costed 8 mil altogether. I chose to ignore crit damage and crit chance since it makes the items so much more expensive and it's not needed unlesss you want 120K+ DPS. I tried a lot of different items before on d3up.com before I came up with a really strong item set.
I managed to get 10K ARMOR, 720 ALL RES, 75K DPS, 31K LIFE, 3% LIfeSteal (all you need with rend and bloodthirst) and ofcourse 24% movement speed, this is all unbuffed ofcourse. The DPS is alittle bit low now but I can easily upgrade it for a cheap cost since NO of my items got CD or CC at all. You're supposed to aim for high str on all your items and the highest dps 2h weapon you can find also on your ring, gloves, amu get attack speed and try to get a lacuni too without CC - since you always want to have 24% movement speed and since you don't have the CD or CC on any other items you won't need it there either. I got a 1611 DPS immortal club for 200k and there was so many of them in the AH at such a price.

I'm getting 38MIL exp/h running the tinnkaizer profile at MP4. (this is only with a socketed helmet and no hellflower ring) Since you're ditching CD and CC it allows you to get really cheap items and it allows you to get a lot of res/vit/armor instead of CD/CC and you will still maintain a good DPS by just getting STR and attack speed items.

Right now i'm using the skills:
Revenge - Vengeance is Mine (this one seems to be the most useless so far, will probably switch it up)
Sprint - Marathon (need that movespeed)
War Cry - Hardened Wrath (meh, you get really tanky but I feel leap or furious charge could be better than this)
Battle Cry - Marauders Rage (need da dmg boost)
Cleave - Reaping Swing (good aoe + awesome fury)
Rend - Blood Lust (rend is really strong but you might not need the blood lust rune)

Passives:
Bloodthirst (gives you life leech, you're not gonna have life leech on your weapon and the 3% from your mighty belt might not be enough)
Tough as Nails (you get really tank since you're massing strength which means a lot of armor, you will get sick tanky with this one but it can be changed for something else that gives you dps/mobility/fury)
Ruthless (5% CC, 50% CD - it doesn't help our DPS that much but I couldn't find another passive that would do more for you)


tl;dr:
if you want a really cheap and effective char, get a barb and focus only on attack speed, strength, tank and the highest 2h dps weapon you can find.
