Charms for a WW

Ok so I am doing another WW barb and wondering which skill charms I want

20 Sword Mastery
20 Iron Skin
1 Natural Resist
1 Increased Speed
20 Shoat
20 Battle Command
1 Battle Orders
20 Whirlwind

which charms would benifit this the most? (note my gear gives about +8 to all and +2 more to Combat Skills)

20 Battle Command
1 Battle Orders

I presume these should be the other way around?

Out of skillers, the best for a barb are warcry ones. Otherwise, max/ar/life or ar/life, they are much better than combat/masteries skillers.

Ya my bad there ya 20 orders 1 command, Alright so would it be worth it for the life/mana boost or should I just go with life/AR charms then?

Depends on personal preference, I suppose. I like having level 40 BO for the party, so I use all warcry charms + a single ar/lifer to fix my attack rating. But I can't say it's really necessary, I can survive well enough even without BO.

IMHO, for this build:

Max/AR/Life > Mastery Skiller > Combat Skiller

Of course if you like high level BO you can go with Qveasd's suggestions.

2nd the guy above...

mastry/lifers are the best choice in BVB only where high defense pays off.

Do you play PvP or PvM? If you play PvM and party alot, I agree with Qveasd.
Try to get wc-skillers with decent life (30+). They will cost around 3-6 Ists on europe. To aim for around 40 lvl bo with gear sounds right to me...

If you play PvP, its max/ar/life charms all the way, but they are very expencive. Best you can get:
gc 10max 76ar 45life
lc 6max 48ar 35life
sc 3max 20ar 20life
The max ones are probably duped (specially 3/20/20 who are on the DNT list on etf). Its probably most value for your runes to buy lc. They can be very good, and don't usually reach the same prices as simular sc's and gc's.

Even if you mostly play PvM, max/ar/life should be what you are aiming for. A high lvl decent build barb should have somewhere between at least 4.000-5.000 life. If you have some lifeleech and crushing blow (+ are careful about that IM-curse) you will never die anyway - so its a good idea to focus on higher dmg.
