Singer Barb
Now, first of all, if anyone has spoken of this recently on this forum, I appologise, but I'm fairly new here and have not had the time to check the majority of the posts.
So here's the general idea:
Main attack is the Warcry. Reaches about 1300 dmg with it's synergies.(more if you go for +skills)
Mana is the general problem but only when facing bosses, and everything else surprisingly falls quickly. Somewhat like the nova sorc from 1.09. with 2 wiz spikes, soj's, harlequin's and the BO, the mana isnt that big of a problem, as I was surprised to find out. I must admit, I didnt finish this build because another one popped to mind and replaced this, but he did solo hell (with some excruciating battles with duriel, mepho, diablo and baal in particular)
My question is this. I tried this build in PvP and was left greatly dissapointed. With my dmg over 1k I dealt no more than 100-110 actual dmg to a friend's sorc with no dmg reduce equipment. Aside from the PvP dmg penalties, what am I missing here? why the pittiful dmg? Gladly, with the cast rate from the wiz spikes, the dmg dealt shoots off quickly. I've never liked singer barbs much, but this seemed to be a breath of fresh air. If anyone can shed some light on the formulae and types of dmg for War Cry I'd much appreciate it (and I noticed it can be blocked)
Thank you.
