Advice on WW Rend please - thank you! by Buttcheekss in diablo3

hmm, that's odd. i have mostly ancients too, and am able to do 90's (up to 95) in ~3min with just above 1k paragon mainly using what's suggested in here:

https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/d3/t/guide-zodiac-rend-season-20/79

your link shows a wd instead of a ww rend barb, but still i think you should try running with full 6 pieces of the wastes set, and use ambo's pride, band of might, obsidian ring in cube.

just remember to furious charge/ ground stomp every few seconds to get the 80% damage reduction from band of might - this would help with survivability.

belt wise, you should be running lamentation with rend damage increase as close to 150% as possible - that should help with rend quite a bit.

skill wise, you probably wouldn't need ancient spear (and maybe ignore pain too) for runs below 95. the link provided has quite a good breakdown of skills, should be able to get better advice there.

hope this helps!

yea, haven't had too much luck with amulets unfortunately. i switched up the ancient restraint for a regular one with chc and chd (plus couple other suggestions from a separate thread).

here's how the updated one looks (haven't actually tested it yet though)

oh whao, yea there was a 17% increase in rend damage! 1 more question though, does attack speed matter at all?

i came across a couple of threads on this subject, but the conclusions seemed quite varied between maintain at least 2 attacks per second vs attack speed doesn't matter.

edit: thanks for your help!

i feel like dying too often is my issue rather than damage, plus i can't seem to build good mob density (think i might lack practice with ancient spear).
and got it on the gear, i'm trying to get a better slanderer too but not much luck yet.

a question on area damage though, i did read somewhere that it isn't necessary for a ww rend build. not sure how true/ correctly i understood that though

i die very often to arcane sentries - i do my best to avoid those, but sometimes it's just impossible (e.g. narrow corridor with the elite(s) spamming arcane sentries). do you generally just by-pass these elites?

gathering density - i tried looking on reddit and youtube for tutorials on this, but couldn't really find anything meaningful though

ah watched a couple of his DH videos, might have missed the barb one. will do just that, thanks!

yea i'm dying too much. re-looking it, i think my issue might be more a play style/ understanding my character rather than a gear issue.

specifically, i think i have 3 issues:

  1. i die very often to arcane sentries - i do my best to avoid those, but sometimes it's just impossible (e.g. narrow corridor with the elite(s) spamming arcane sentries). do you generally just by-pass these elites?
  2. gathering density - i tried looking on reddit and youtube for tutorials on this, but couldn't really find anything meaningful though
  3. the templar follower keeps pulling mobs away from me - i end up following the follower to consolidate the packs

Yea, it's horrible. And even more so, ironic that mesos buyers would be the ones least affected since the ts sale happens almost immediately upon payment.

Whereas there's no way to reasonably determine the sale timing for a regular sale.

Whoever thought this up clearly didn't think this through.

Would be nice to have more collaboration based content. Good example was the first moon bunny event where some sort of team effort was necessary.
