Another Chart from Era 11 Analysis That Micro is trying not to advertise

And if you really believed this statement…

As a general note about those charts:

Those charts do not show OP classes but rather the most efficient killers. And DH and Wiz and Necro to some extend are very efficient. So when a buff is planned for a class, it should elevate this efficiency such that

  • Clear times speed up
  • The paragon it takes to achieve a certain grift level is comparable across all classes

For barbs, it may be giving them one build to dispatch higher grs at less duration. The current values suggest that the PTR buff fir WW is as good as it is right now. It should be noted that there are many barb builds and this buff alone will not push the efficiency curve all the way right. However, it will give some breath to solo and lower paragon players.

The paragon is directly related to main stat which is a direct dmg multiplier. And since we know before Wiz nerf, they were clearing about +143-4s with +6000 paragon. Now, they may do 140s, which is probably similar to current barb efficiency.

There is also no push data to warrant that the barb is OP compared to wiz since all wiz players pushed with barb in this ptr.

Also note, after wiz nerf, the DH and Wiz are equally efficient now and no one seems to notice DH yet.

I still wonder where Micro was when Wizard and Necro was op…
No charts, no graphs, nothing.

Why the sudden “interest” in Barbarians ?
