Will be switching to Witch Docs instead, more cost effective for budget returns

Barb gear prices are overinflated.

Looking at the current situation now, the demand of people regearing is going to skyrocket once they have decided to stay on the ship instead of swimming to the nearest shore.

Might as well do the contrary and level up a Witch Doc instead and be happy with 400 IPH for <10Mil gold spent.
 
what WD build is doing 400 IPH for around 10m in gear?

Yeah I had 2 barbs and a WD and definitely, to get my WD running well, I had to put in some major gold. More than my barbs.
 
Last night I geared two barbs to do MP0-MP2 ac3 for 10 mill each. Both are paragon 75-90 doing 500k GPH at around 13mill xp (with no XP bonus items/gems). One of them is at 402 IPH and the other is 397.

what weapon do your barbs have?
 
400 is very low, I get 1000 as the lowest on my bots, peak is 1200/1300. Consider to change your trinity settings, pick less shit up to optimize your farming efficiency.
 
Yes IPH is items per hour. Bear in mind like I said I spent only 10 mill on these two bots due to the shit storm going on right now.

Seeing more drop per hour does not necessarily mean you are making more money. If my bot is taking the time to pick up all the yellows instead of ignoring sub 63 like maybe you are doing (and then selling them for gold)?? Also depends on your gear etc. I'm guessing you are 100k plus dps WW barb (for example) that just blasts through content with a higher than average gold pick up pile setting (say 500). Out of interest what is you GPH and how geared are your bots?
 
i never found it expensive to gear up barbs, even w garbage gear i only get 2 deaths p hour

Very nice to see someone with some knowledge of it, most of your assumptions are correct. My barbarians are indeed at over 100k dps.
But yes you are indeed correct, it may not mean better items, but having a higher IPH increases your odds (note RNG is always gonna be RNG), but this higher IPH will surely prove to be more worthwhile in the longer run if we are taking a statistical test over many many many weeks. My GPH is at 500-700k hour, nothing amazing but I set it only to pickup 1000+ gold, 61 weapons, 61 armor, 58 jewelry. But I do ignore blue items, previously I didn't and was hovering very very very low IPH and making very little of each bot. The market is also becoming harder and harder to sell items on, so having a higher IPH will in the longer run profit you more IMHO.
