It was changed from the PTR (nerfed) , there are some non-meta builds it still works with such as Axial Conduit Chain lightning Sorc. I’d think similar options for other classes exist.
If the guide/video you are following is from the PTR it likely won’t work now.
is there anything still bugged about it with barbs?
the bug i read about was something with a firebolt sorc and the glove unique.
The 75% RCR was removed from PTR version, that fundamentally changes how it works.
I’ve not looked deeply into it with my Barb, but you’d need to find something that has an interaction that wants more resource spent to benefit from it. As an example Banished Lord’s ammy. It will likely need something else like the Axial pants for Sorc. Given Overpower is very much a Barb damage stat it may be easier to build something around this.
ah ok so this is kind of a dead item right now.
if you did want to build around it how would you fix the resource cost now on a barb other than starless skies?
i just want to throw together a build that uses my grandfather and og ring of starless skies with the crit damage.
using this short season to go back thru all my old seasonal toons that are now eternal and updating them with current builds with the loot reborn tempers.
my barbs original build got gutted by the removal of the vampire powers from season 1 and the only thing i know for sure is that id like to keep using frenzy
Hello there, also running Frenzy but on Seasonal, Crown of Lucion is bugged currently for Basic Skills or either specifically with Shard of Verathiel, you get the Resource Cost increase but not the Damage increase. You can still run Crown + Shard but you can only do it with Starless due to the nerfs, to do it, you need to invest points into Resource Generation in the Skill Tree and get at least 2 or 3 (depending if you get GA) gear pieces with Resource Cost Reduction, Resource Generation Temper on Ring and the Elixir.

Semm bugged I didn’t see any dmg boost, but my mana was poof easily
I’ve got a couple of them. Easy to get from Helmet Whisper Caches. It was initially a recommended item for some Sorc build but not any more because it is indeed bugged when it comes to damage.
S5 is the season of Uniques rework and Crown of Lucion is a new season Helmet. Seems a bit amateur to create a special Unique for the season but have it bugged.
There is no mention of fixing it in the soon to be released patch.

Yeah, got really excited when I got a CDR GA one, invested a lot into Resource Generation and Reduction just to see the Damaga Buff not working, hope they fix it soon.
They need to fix it, would make my fireball sorc a lot more powerful.
You can do a deathblow build with
- The Third Blade.
- ‍Overkill.
- ‍Crown of Lucion.
- ‍Ring of Red Furor.
- ‍Ramaladni’s Magnum Opus.
And you can replace starless unique by going with starlight aspect, and resource gen and invigorating fury tempers. The healing is insane and you NEVER run out of fury
And if you can find an aspect your willing to give up you can throw in banished lords ammy and gear for overpower dmg.
Seems like it is bugged. Blood Surge with cruor, deathspeaker and mortacrux, the resource is no problem, but there is no increase in damage. I hit less with the crown.
