In a way throw barb is melee, only for the simple fact that HOTA/Bash is in the mix for overpower. that said, if you went straight throw barb it could be range. but yeah throw barb is strongest for the barb class this season. even with the hota buffs i’m afraid that you wouldn’t be able to beat high tiers with that build. ww/hota mix is clunky and takes more time to use.
how far did you get in the PIT with this build?
Only Pit 95… Unfortunately, as it starts to reach pit 90, it’s ability to clear trash quickly starts to diminish. But you can certainly kill a boss 100+
I mainly hang out in 75-80 2 min runs.
My craziest so far is DB,WT, Rup, WOB, WW, UH… it’s a juggle but possible for fun, not sure if it has potential to do pits though or even t4. Currently can do pit 50 with it, and most T3 content, but not bosses. Have to dial it back for those to something more practical.
If you want more speed change the weapon type, it throws faster with dual swords versus 2Hhammer for example. Pretty sure all skills are effected by weapon speed and such.
I’ll have to check that out. Rolled another barb built for quake/dd. A lot more fun to play. Still gearing but already in T4. Better for speedfarming but definitely not going to pit 100 that I can see. That’s where I stalled out on my MT barb.

What level roughly did you unlock T4, jut so i can have a performance benchmark, If you remember?
Open Question to other Barbs.
I kind of sped run her up to 60 in T3. Then went to T4 after I leveled glyphs a bit. Her damage seems low for single target compared to the MT, but could be because he’s all 12/12/ and 100 glyphs.
I don’t think I can get her glyphs to 100 without carries. Pit 65 for her right now are 4-5 min affairs. Will see as the masterworking progresses. I’ve lost some of the will to grind it out.
