From the Barb Community: DO NOT NERF REND

Nooooo! don’t say that, I have been doing Bounty’s like crazy (everyone knows how much I hate doing Bounty’s) and gathering a ton of mats in anticipation for my favorite build to be “one” of the top solo damage dealers in the game after all these years begging for substantial Buffs for the WW build, surely they will hear our pleas and do what is right.
This is probably the first time since I started reading your Posts that I hope you are wrong. :wink:
We can’t stop now, I think there is some hope left that reason will prevail!

His intention is not nerfing barb , but not making a particular class overshadows other classes too. But clearly he is not wording correctly and the angle of data he selected to consolidate his views are wrong. In other words, he tries too hard.

Sidetrack a bit, I am amazed by the players in China. They can score higher solo GR clears than most other regions at a noticeably lower plvl. I am also a Chinese (though not from China), but no where near them at all :rofl:

I try to keep following this thread when I can. Getting annoyed.

Talking about metal without mentioning Animals as Leaders. SHAME.

Talking about samples of size FOUR. F.O.U.R.

That hurts my soul.

I think people are way overestimating the new monk set. I can’t see it being very good so long as the bracers for TR can fail to work due to CC resistances (unless they changed that under the hood and I’m not aware).

Crusader set looks good damage wise, but the DR looks really really slow stacking. The build is range so it could be alright maybe, but pretty rough at the beginning of a GR and if you die…

Buff Barbs. Then give monks an awesome proc build.

I don’t know what Monks need and don’t pretend to. But from what I’ve seen and heard it’s substantial. I hope the address this.

Given that Barbs, Monks, and Crusaders are the beneficiaries of PTR 2.6.7, there has to be thinking towards that. :wink:

I had to laugh at myself the other night with my WW Barb, waiting for a teleport to take me home I ran out of that 3 second buff, a Sand Fly baby came along and bit me on the butt and killed me! I just shook my head at that one.

Only a few days left till patch notes.

Keep the fire burning guys

Un-nerf the barb!

For someone who is supposed to be so data driven, you sure do seem worried about how people -think- classes will perform. How about you go off the actual data where they did perform? That would be 140. Darkpotatoes can say he will hit 148 all he wants, but he didn’t actually get there. The proof is in the pudding.

MMM pudding. I can’t have any pudding until I’ve eaten my meat though.
You know the kind of raw red and wriggling meat I’ll leave on the battlefield if they undo the Lamentation nerf. I don’t mix metaphors I mangle them until they’re nearly unrecognizable.

You been down too long in the midnight sea. Oh, what’s becoming of me?

Y’all, I just wanna ride the tiger with a 200% Lamentation. I mean, I can see his stripes but I know he’s clean.

Ya feel me?

There was enough hair in that band to weave a fur coat.

That vocal performance still gives me goosebumps to this day

A-friggin’-MEN!

He was, I feel, the greatest rock vocalist ever. Capable of incredible growls, screams, pitch-perfect notes, and belting like nobody’s business.

Really hope Lamentation isn’t nerfed into the ground because I want to find the Sacred Heart!

Another special thing with him is how perfectly he punctuates every single word, creating a sense of depth and emphasis to what he is saying

I always thought Rainbow in the Dark was definitive but he never got much credit for it.

Like us sitting here in the dark waiting for the WW rainbow.

Absolutely!

All I know is that if he was here, he would want Lamentation at 200%.

Dio, can you hear us?
We are lost and so alone
We’re asking for your guidance
Won’t you come down from your throne?
We need a tight compadre
Who will teach us how to Rend
The others think you’re evil
But man, they can uninstall…
