XBOX X Series D3. WWRend Barb concerns

Console Discussion

Since I can’t stand D4, I’m sticking to D3

Tried playing a WW barb but:

  • feels like it’s 2013 again where Barb cannot stop WW’ing otherwise it is dead. I thought this was fixed ages ago. Must have forgotten the fix on the console game…
  • There is a serious lag gap in the command keys on an Xbox controller. First off, one cannot activate a triggers action on a button while channeling on a trigger (e.g. WW on RT and WotB on button “B”). One’s got to release the channel trigger (and thus, stop. see point #1 for issue) and then Press button to go Wrath.
    -There’s a serious “slowing down period” when releasing WW’s channeling, enough to wander off into other enemy groups while not moving, and thus die, per point #1 as well…

I know you think you’re done with this game, Blizzard, but I assure you, we’re not.
Many thanks.

I can use shouts just fine without stopping WW (also Series X here). You also get 5 seconds of damage reduction even after you stop, but obviously you’re not getting any health on hit or Taeguk bonuses. You might want to get another damage reduction source, like the ring which gives you DR after using leap or stomp etc.

Also, not sure what you mean about input lag - perhaps it’s your TV and you need to enable gaming mode?

I have a ww barb in non-season. It is way weaker than monk or wizard, though the gear is pretty much equal (all augs).
