3500-4000 damage in  blitz with set now per crit and it can go higher once i proc my melle power boost strikes and when i overbuff with stuff, dont heal ever, barb on hit and crusade do it for me tho crusade only for zuggy pt2 since i like to stand there while taking a beating, can do temple in around 20ish mins on ee without issue pt1, pt 2 alrdy farming the shit out of end chest on ee

For fucks sake capstone proc alone is 1300 damage now, it overshadows all your dps easily, just 1 ability in barb tree, then there are frenzys that scale with melle power etc etc etc

In dcrusader dps is around the same, have you played a barb at all since the revamp harr?
Its virtually god mode that doesnt give a fk about anything in the hands of "proper players"

I dont even want nor have strenght to explain or argue with people anymore, just roll a lv 1 barb and check trees, then combine it with a little ammount of brain mass and youl know it yourself how well it synergizes with gear.
Also temple set is best for 2 weapon figheters or 2 weapon stick using sorcs anyways so you lose alrdy potential 20 ranged power on your "thrower thing"

Shuri is currently just flavor, subpar option, tho still good, but subpar

What a guildie said when i said that you actually think shuri is better dps then barb was the following: people are stupid, remember

IN gruntsmash they did with  barb 9k smthn dps, as i told you only 1 hand damage strike, with set now id say damage is around 10-11 k in blitz boosted with all buffs.
Yes per second harr

Its just a fact, barbs are so broken now if played right that its dumb.
I trd from sorc on which i used as bf a lesser and aligment change and 1 more lesser +1 heart to this broken thing mainly for efficiency.

Tho to be perfectly honest, i finally feel like a 3x all maxed out dude for the first time as enemies just melt in front of me.


Try it, ask around in game proper barb builds, check out achivments on mother forums.
Maybe youl like it, there really is no need to play ranged in current ddo since you are so strong in melle right now with palie/barb and somehwat barb + tree builds or monk+tree

Ye i agree, but he started shuriken shit in gxbow thread.

Just saying shuri sucks nowadays, and that he should leave gxbow build alone, if he alrdy wants max dps do a barb.
Gxbow builds are quite fun right now and prolly amongst best brute dps wise exactly as i said in threads here when the reload was released to act with alatricity during lama pre test phase and asked some people to try it on live via pure rogue/18 rogue 2 artie split, or the exploiter barb ranger druid build

simmer down sandy vagina

Thanks, crunch. Looks like I'll have to visit Fred myself to test if Quick Draw no longer affects reload (if it isn't just a figment of my faulty memory that it ever did?)

To the best of my recollection, it never did.

Spread nonsense? Please tell me where I spread nonsense. I just report the numbers.

Yeah, but without fighter levs pretty tight on feats now, something had to go.

Nope, just a big fat GxB.

I'm just hoping more range power items will come out down the road because the ToEE GxB is nothing compared to Thunderforged.

Something I found interesting is that for all the sneak-attack die that were added the mechanic or rogue have no way to prep a sneak attack for ranged attack. So in grinding out heroic and epic pure Mechanic I have found the Radiance II and then Blinding fear on Tier I TF are kinda of a must.

I really like Blinding fear,  no save every 12 seconds, no waiting for it to proc, just bang.

And since I have no ranger levels to grab Sniper shot I need it.

No Mechanic Sniper shot type ability, nice work Severlin you dumbshit. The guy goes banging on and on about how his vision of Mechanics are "snipers" using there heavy sneak-attack to snipe and kill at range..... and then he doesn't give them and way to set it up, or to shed hate when they do.

Guy is such a shitty designer.

Well I will take your advice and rotate a Imp decep item in this week and see how it goes mate.

Yeah Assassins just got pooped on, bunch of boring not stuff, and the poor acro's got hosed.

Take a look at Assasin's Trick, it functions like Bluff without interupting your attack chain. Nice for sneak damage on undeads.
Another goodie from the assasin tree is the mp/rp boost which will not break the attack chain too.

Well I'm capped now and I will tell you what is a real bitch, even more than the absence of more special ranged attack, it's the agro.

When you hammer a mob with a big tasty ranged back stab you have no way of reducing threat, I have can do fine until I will put some real heat on a target and that fucker will break off from whoever it is fighting and charge me down. I tend to keep the Uncanny dodge unused waiting for that to happen now, after a week of it.

But as much as it sucks not to have it on a mechanic I feel really bad for the Acrobats, sly flourish was so completely ass-fucked, and those poor bastards are standing right there. 15%???? applied multiple times? since when did shedding hate become a De-buff instead of a safety move?

And poor Assassin's shiv never worked anyway.

300% knocked down to 15%.
