best build vs ww barb?

Do u guys know what is the best build to kill weap/shield ww barbs??


Thx
 
Just about any build ;) J/k

the following arent too bad :


Hammerdin - Put up the hammer wall and just watch the barb try to go in...

Any character with 75% block or more - and fastest hit recovery.


Bone necro - kill him before he gets near you though.

Trapazin, - run out of town, put traps everywhere and run away and the WW barb will be toasted.

Smiteadin - Just get in first and stunlock them to death.

Any single tree sorc can kill them in 1-2 hits, providing they dont have high resitance gear, then just teleport around and dodge them.

Wind Druid. Just keep out of WW range.

The only time WW barbs are dangerous are when they can run really fast, if they have lots of faster run walk gear, and maxed out their gear, then they are hard to beat.

Ohhhhh!

Use a frozen armor sorc, just stand there, and the WW barb will kill himself on you.
 
Dam, I wrote a very comprehensive guide about 3 chars thats fun to kill barbs with, and then my comp hanged before I sent it :rant:

Anyway, here it goes:

1) Lamest - Slow Zon. 1-2Cold Damage SC, Blackhorns, Norferata's Coil, Clegaw's Claw + Fast Attack + Guided Arrow = KO

2) Funnest - Summoning Necro. Faster R/W + max amount of minions + Decriprify(if he chase you)/Iron Maiden(every other time) = KO

3) Shamest - Elemental Druid - Faster R/W + +skills items + fire facets + armeddegon and synergies = KO (exceptional for Enigma / Doom Barbs)
( :flip: I PWNED BARBS WITH THIS IN 1.09 :flip: )

LOL ! Too bad I didn't post the longer version of this, it was way funnier and more detailed (especially about me owning in 1.09 with my elemental druid!) Good Luck :thumbsup:

haha if his comp got wacked he had to restart so that wouldnt have worked :D oh and i go for the simplest build of all

level 20 necro with bone prison and iron maiden :D first u cast a skelemage and prison and he is stuck.. then u amplify dmg him so he thinks ur a noob. this is when he starts his ww crushing action at ur prisons.. after a while u go like LOTSA PRISONS AND IRON MAIDEN.. smack and the baba goes baibai :wave:

You are forgetting the 1 point wonder leap and berserk on barbarian to avoid your prisons and IM.
 
Leap attack now counts as melee attack. Leap is still great skill to have ;p
 
So just how good did I do with these predictions, anyways?

Since the godly ww barbs don't seem to have seen this post yet, I'm gonna go through the whole thread so far and quote their likely response to all this: (" " around something: what they'd likely say, without quotations is mine.)

"I would just tele south on you and ww downwards with ebotd + beast zerk." "You'd hit me, but you'd still die first"

How would you pull that off?

Even I have a hard time believing that one, unless he forgot to use some light res, and I don't even HAVE a ww barb (yet)

"Any barb that has 50dr and can still dual weild can beat any smiter."

I'd say it would take about 3 at the least, since we are talking ~6k life+++. And if the barb did use some res gear you're toast. "Also, barb tele + 1st ww hit = 14 frames with arach + 2x 10 fcr ring whereas sorc tele + tele again or attack = 16 unless a 200 build." "So I could still catch you."

While staying in tornado range. Have fun with that.

What about enigma?

Wait isn't prison level 24?

He is?

Wait, you mean he hasn't killed you yet?

At level 24 you'd have level 1 base prison. Even with +skills, I doubt you could get this over 7 without spending way too much time and trades. So, not only would prison have low life = easy to break + low damage return from im, but it would have a somewhat high mana cost for the lvl, so spamming isn't gonna last long.

And tele... oh wait that isn't a barb skill... oh wait yes it is... :lol:

Then there'd be some stuff at the end about how you must only duel pub a good ww barb can beat any character and then his acct name for a duel on west. And if you say you on east the next post is YABE = Yet Another Bigmouth Eastie, followed with a bit of elaboration on the topic... (Damn I'm good.)

*shrugs* I have nothing better to do with my time then try to predict someone else's actions. Go me.
 
Wait, what about my ele druid? and my slow zon!

Druid: Doom BA + Faster r/w + Enigma to tele if you find yourself in trouble

Zon: High lvl Passives with slow, KB and cold can take out all barbs without Enigma or Doom
