The plan at this point is to be the Second Wolfbarb to reach Level 99 and I’ve decided to start my own thread to document the journey. Back in June ARGH finished Hell at level 88 after playing all of Hell at level 5 and having zero deaths. Here are his stats at that time.
Name: ARGH
Class: Barbarian
Experience: 1466153040
Level: 88
Naked/Gear/in Wolf mode
Strength: 133/190
Dexterity: 121/165
Vitality: 271/305
Energy: 10/10
HP: 1273/1382/4945
Mana: 97/137
Stamina: 425/451
Defense: 30/1632/13056
AR: 590/1051/7780
Fire: 75
Cold: 72
Lightning: 85
Poison: 72
MF: 103 Block: 21
GF: 113
FR/W: 30 actually 86 to 114when in wolf form
FHR: 5
IAS: 101 Actually 56, 101 includes 45% from Doom which never gets factored into calculations.
FCR: 0
His End gear was
Helm - Wolfhowl
Armor – Chains of Honor Archon Plate
Gloves – Laying of hands
Belt – Thundergod’s Vigor
Boots – Goreriders
Amulet – Seraph’s Hymn
Main Hand – Grief phaseblade (+381damage, 36% IAS)
Off Hand – Doom Warspike
Ring 1 – Raven Frost
Ring 2 – Rare ring with Mana leach, life, Lightning resist, +13 dex and +65 to AR.
Switch – HOTO flail and Spirit Tusk Sword
I also socketed the Wolfhowl with a rare jewel with 25 - 40 Fire Damage and 1 - 70 Lightning Damage
With a bunch of small charms and the Venom from Grief my total elemental damage was
Cold – 118-171
Fire – 54-119
Lightning – 6-281
Poison – 300-325
His Skills were
Bash: 1/7
Double Swing: 1/7
Sword Mastery: 20/26
Increased Stamina: 1/7
Iron Skin: 20/26
Increased Speed: 4/10
Natural Resistance: 10/16
Howl: 1/9
Shout: 20/28
Battle Orders: 20/28
Battle Command: 1/9
He was accompanied by Wulfgar his trusty Barbarian friend wielding a Lawbringer Champion sword and equipped with Arreat’s Face with a 40% ED, +14 life Jewel and Fortitude Armor.
Level 88 to 93
I really enjoyed him and decided to turn him into a Magic finder to continue playing him. As a result, I made several changes.
The off-hand Doom was replaced by a blade of Ali Baba with two Ist runes.
The Gore Riders were replaced by War Travelers
Laying of Hands was replaced by Chance Guards
The rare ring was replaced with another that had 15% MF
And to free up space for MF small charms the Seraph’s Hymn was replaced by a Mara Kaleidoscope.
These changes brought my magic find to over 400%. However, they also impacted my killing speed and rather than running at p/5 I switched to p/1 or 3. During the summer MFO I switched the gloves back to Laying of Hands to help shorten the time it was taking to kill Baal and other demons.
By Thanksgiving I was just shy of level 93 and had spent the additional skill points one each on Find potion, Find item, Increase Speed and Natural Resistances.
In late November I switched to D2R, immediately sold my extra SoJ and got a reasonable Annihlus charm.

Fingerprint: 0xbedd8e04
Item Level: 99
Version: Resurrected
+1 to All Skills
All Stats +18
All Resistances +16
+8% to Experience Gained
And as result also switched the Mara’s amulet for Highlord’s Wrath to gain deadly strike.
On making level 93 I dumped a second point into Find Item. I was spending time running Baal, Diablo, Travincal, Pits, AT, Nihlathak and slowly building some experience. Then just before Christmas I read the SPF 99er Compendium guide and realized that I needed to decide, Keep ARGH as he was and probably take 10 years to reach 99 or get serious and make some changes so that he can run at high players settings with reasonable times.
The problem with a Wolfbarb is that when in Wolf form you are restricted to Feral Rage as your attack and Feral Rage just doesn’t do really high damage. So, it was time to do a little testing.
First, off came the MF gear and back on went his end gear. I did decide to keep the Highlord’s for the Deadly strike. He immediately became able to run Baal’s minion waves at p/8. Next, I removed all the MF small charms and loaded up on elemental damage charms. This didn’t really result in much of an improvement. I decided that I needed more physical damage and had too much elemental damage.
I then removed the 25 - 40 Fire Damage and 1 - 70 Lightning Damage jewel in the Wolfhowl helm and replaced it with a 37% ED and 1-92 lightning damage jewel. I then removed most of the elemental small charms and substituted Sharp Grand Charms and Fine small charms. This allows me to add up to 67 to max damage, 326 to AR and 37% FHR.
Wednesday on a Trav run, a Jah rune dropped and I made a Phoenix shield that I had been lusting to make. It’s expensive (Vex, Vex, Lo and Jah) but the +391% extra damage by itself is a big boost even though I lose +2 to Feral rage and the Holy Freeze aura when I remove Doom as the off-hand weapon. The only issue with Phoenix is that I can’t hork any bodies. Will probably switch back to Doom on Pindle and Trav runs so I can hork.

Right now he is running and I mean running (no Enigma) Pindle p/3, Nihlathak p/8, Travincal p/3, LK p/8 and Baal p8/3. Travincal and LK are in there to break up boredom and I can always use more high runes. Total time to do Baal is under 8 minutes and everything is around 12 minutes, not exactly blinding fast, but I can improve on that if I can just stop killing everything, I especially love killing Frenzytaur packs.
For those wondering why I don't use my Enigma, the problem with Enigma is other than the teleporting it doesn’t really strengthen the build and does nothing to improve damage or resistances. Chains of Honor is far superior for a Wolfbarb. Also, my plan was to be always a Wolf and you can’t teleport in wolf form.
Thoughts for the future
I’m not running Diablo right now since I must fight my way into and through the Chaos Sanctuary. However, there is another option, which is to wear Enigma and teleport onto Diablo’s arch, cast a portal and go back to the fortress, switch over to CoH and then back to the Sanctuary.
Find some better grand charms.
Does getting a hellfire torch make any sense? I’ve never run it and have no real idea how easy it would be for ARGH. It would probably be worth running occasionally, the problem being that while I have plenty Keys of Terror from the Countess, I have none of the other two. I’ll let my Zealot who is wearing Enigma do the AS runs and see how long it takes Nihlathak and the Summoner to drop 3 keys.
And then there is Wulfgar. He’s tough and seldom dies, but then he seldom kills anything by himself. He exists for the Decrepify and Sanctuary from Lawbringer. However, I’ve noticed that since switching over to D2R that the Decrepify is often overwritten by Battle Cry, which usually is not a problem unless you are trying to take down a PI boss. As a result, I’ve thought about switching to an Act 2 Might merc using reaper’s toll.
I’ve got too much Lightning damage from gear and charms (6-383) and the only fire damage I have is from the Firestorm from Phoenix. Now that I have the fire resistance drop from Phoenix I need to find some smoking charms.
Finds on the way
I’ll start with finds beginning with the Jah on Jan 4
Jan 5 – Baal dropped 4 uniques at once including a Nightwing Veil and Shadow Killer
Jan 6 – An Ohm on the way to Nihlathak

37% Better Chance of Getting Magic ItemsFor those wondering why I don't use my Enigma, the problem with Enigma is other than the teleporting it doesn’t really strengthen the build and does nothing to improve damage or resistances. Chains of Honor is far superior for a Wolfbarb. Also, my plan was to be always a Wolf and you can’t teleport in wolf form.

I’m not running Diablo right now since I must fight my way into and through the Chaos Sanctuary. However, there is another option, which is to wear Enigma and teleport onto Diablo’s arch, cast a portal and go back to the fortress, switch over to CoH and then back to the Sanctuary.
Find some better grand charms.
Does getting a hellfire torch make any sense? I’ve never run it and have no real idea how easy it would be for ARGH. It would probably be worth running occasionally, the problem being that while I have plenty Keys of Terror from the Countess, I have none of the other two. I’ll let my Zealot who is wearing Enigma do the AS runs and see how long it takes Nihlathak and the Summoner to drop 3 keys.
And then there is Wulfgar. He’s tough and seldom dies, but then he seldom kills anything by himself. He exists for the Decrepify and Sanctuary from Lawbringer. However, I’ve noticed that since switching over to D2R that the Decrepify is often overwritten by Battle Cry, which usually is not a problem unless you are trying to take down a PI boss. As a result, I’ve thought about switching to an Act 2 Might merc using reaper’s toll.
I’ve got too much Lightning damage from gear and charms (6-383) and the only fire damage I have is from the Firestorm from Phoenix. Now that I have the fire resistance drop from Phoenix I need to find some smoking charms.
Finds on the way
I’ll start with finds beginning with the Jah on Jan 4
Jan 5 – Baal dropped 4 uniques at once including a Nightwing Veil and Shadow Killer
Jan 6 – An Ohm on the way to Nihlathak
