From the Barb Community: DO NOT NERF REND

It does seem like they are waiting to tell us even though i understand blizzcon was a big event.

im giving it until the end of next monday for them to say something about this , if nothing then i will start to worry :rage:

Well you are wrong with the new mortick barb WW is very tanky and until you reach a decent paragon near 2k you can manage your build and play more defensif with aquiline instead of Mantle of Channeling for being more tanky.

So before saying bullshi* maybe get some info :wink:

I did a 107 on PTR with zero survivability issues. I could have gone far higher but didn’t end up having as much time to play as I had hoped. I don’t know about the 140 range, but I had plenty enough toughness to get me through at least 120.

Did i really read “paragon near 2k” xD?, are you aware that most people here is way under 2k paragon right ?
Also if you need paragon 2k in order to survive in a GR +110 that thing means the build is squishy, so you are giving me the reason :man_shrugging:

Mantle of channeling? really? are you aware that lamentation uses our cube slot, and overall using captain crimson is better.

Maybe you should play barbarian a bit more before saying something like this.

If you don’t trust on me just ask any of the leaders of the barb crew if WW is squishy or not.

people who were pushing werent all using crimson.
I ran a 110 with no deaths and if you simply use band of might with ground stomp its a huge defensive buff.

The problem is that using band of might means no coe or captain (because obsidian is mandatory).

If you check that polemic video of darkpatator you notice he is not using band of might, using coe and captain in order to clear a 140… so basically if you add band of might you lose raw power.

I’d prefer to just wear the Lam belt and cube Mantle for the added damage. That offsets the dps loss from using BoM a bit and make you much more tankier in the process.

I’m glad to see this thread and the people speaking up in it for nerfs to end, and for all the classes to get more power and toughness. Keep it going folks.

i Said before 2k because this is a cap for every classes when reach this paragon you get a real huge of tankyness and 2k this is not even too hard.

Well i remember a clear 120 near 1k1 para on a ptr server of course with WW rend WITHOUT captain crimson and aquiline and i don’t get any problem.

So yes when you are low para you won’t play captain crimson because you play without band of might you will play full set with Mantle of channeling in the cube or aquiline if you are very squishy and switch on the captain crimson variant later when you get some para

So i confirm the new WW is not even squishy yet

Maybe use your brain before start trashtalking on me :wink: kiss

Fate whispers to the Barbarian, ‘You cannot withstand the storm.’
The Barbarian whispers back, ‘I am the storm.’

Stay focused Barbarians!

IMHO, the most damaging setup is going to be IB weapons, Crimson, CoE (so, RoRG in cube, no BoM). This setup may be a bit squishy, particularly at lower paragon.

You could also wear Lamentation, put Mantle in cube, and use BoM in cube, proccing it with either Charge or Stomp (probably pulling IP off your bar). This will probably be 2-3 GRs lower, but you’ll be very tough.

Mantle of channeling lmao, okay genius.

I think they should change the free rune we get from the 6 pieces bonus to blood funnel, dust devils don’t deal real damage anymore and only produce lag, that thing would enable us to use wind shear + bloodfunnel which it’s pretty nice considering that IB weapons are BIS now.

That’s why we have been advocating for a even higher buff. High para players have huge amounts of armour due high strength, but 90% of the players will have to sacrifice damage for toughness. The build is not OP at all

Yes, and some genius here was bashing me for asking defensive buffs :man_shrugging:

Yeah damage boost plus damage reduction all you need on low para … so who don’t play barb here ?

People bashed you for creating an unnecessary argument with Gasnick. Nobody dismissed toughness buffs, as far as I remember

I only play hardcore bud, 1 mistake and you die, i really know when a build is squishy.
