Is an mp10 barbarian really worth it?

[psilocybin]

I have 3 tempest rush monks doing mp0 getting around 600 IPH and 1-1.5 LPH on act 3. do u think it would be worth it to upgrade to mp10 barbs and do act 1?

the reason why im asking is obviously because it cost a shitload of gold but i heard barbs wrath of the berserker is getting nerfed.

is it worth it? what stats is your mp10 barb currently getting? and whats a good build for act 1 mp10 (no elites or elites)?

thanks for the help

I have two p100 barbs that do crypt of the ancients, they're getting 3 to 3.5 legendaries per hour. Sure, the gear costs 1.5-2b+, but it's fun to gear up, plus it pays off.

Also, even if they nerf thrive on chaos, you can always go for another rune, or possibly even go for war cry.

Ye we really like this idea more barbs, more gold

You can switch builds on your monk. Spend 200m on each, get them 200k dps unbuffed and go cookie cutter bell spam. It does mp6-7 faster than barbs, in my case.

Could you provide more details? I suck at gearing monks, so a small guide or a few hints would be greatly appreciated

Monk - Game Guide - Diablo III

Skorn build and inna's set build, as TR. Ls skorn is not required but helps a lot, you don't need to go for 6 ls, 4,5-5 is more than enough. Gear should be the same as tr, if you completely disregarded an especific resistance when gearing your monks buy some especific resistance pieces. If you think you generate too much spirit / WoL does not spend it fast enough, there are several options : 1)change your pasives for faster mov speed, or armor increased by dex 2) In WoL trinity/monk options set it to 1 mob 3) change sweeping winds rune to cyclones.

If your survivability allows it, take off OwE and ascension, in my best geared ones I change Ascension for binding flash--faith in the light.

There are a lot of variations of this build and most works really good, depending on your gear, resistances, dps, etc. Try and find the one that suits you better! Probably the only skills necesary are Mantra of Conviction-Overawe and WoL, the rest are depending every especific bot's gear.

===== End Of Report =====

overnight stats from one of my mp10 barbs. 9 hours is a small sample but theyre actually consistent results across all my barbs and with longer tracking times. imo it is worth it if you have gold laying around you dont care about spending or selling.

 

[pindleskin]

I am also thinking of spending a little more per 1 bot and maybe do a barb or wd. though i read that firebats don't work good with trinity.
Previously i had TR monks (50m budget) with 3 elite kills/min and close to 1-2 legendaries per hour on long period.

Should i bother with unid dealer also? Have never used it before. Last month was really bad cuz alot stuff dropped in prices. Got half less out of this game than in a previous months this year.

@Polyester

how much did this barb's gear cost? Is this with party plugin or solo, what profile?

 

[Antihero]

I didn't spend more than 200mil on my mp10 wotb barb. They're pretty easy to build. I go for the elites (using act 1 decaying crypts profile) and currently get 1-4 deaths per hour. Only about 400-500 gph, and "maybe" 1 lph. I'd get around 45-55m ehp if the profile wouldn't randomly TP to town and leave game, but I'm getting about 40mil.

Would u mind post build and gear?

I am thinking about upgrade my 2 Barbs.

 

[Trigun]

ww barb need a dual weapon or a 2h weapon ?

 

[JoshYoJoshYo]

Either.

 

[stray dog]

I've heard that hota barb is superior than ww now, and I've switched my build to it with good results.

I'm at 650k ehp and 800k tdps, unbuffed besides passives.

I run crypt of the ancients on mp10 w/ kill elites on (I don't like the way ignore elites screws with the combat logic). I get about 2-4 legendaries/hr at paragon100.

I'd estimate it took around 500m to gear my barb. Considering I find a ~100m item a day w/ him, I'd say it's worth it.

what does the FullStats log say? how many hours and how many legendaries per hour?

 

[Bertrand]

Polyester, can you post some stats as well as gear choice/build for your mp10 barb(s) ?

 

[stray dog]

what does the FullStats log say? how many hours and how many legendaries per hour?

What is FullStats? source? I'll post results from it, but for now, I've just been counting legendaries and dividing by hours. 2-4 seems average :]

 

[Heart]

Any one have a guide what gear you should have for mp 10?

 

[Polyester]

for everyone that has been asking and pming me.. for my bots i aimed for 180-200k dps, 60k hp, 600 all res, 6k armor using a high str/vit skorn. whilrwind with rend + ravage and overpower + killing spree however 1 bot in the party would have warcry + impunity. passives were ruthless + weapon master + superstition.
