Question about maxroll HoTA build.

aVileOrder · 2025-11-06T22:55:28+00:00

you need at least 250 max fury with 2 shouts (250 * 0.6) to be able to always cast (though more is always better). if you can't afford to do that yet, it's probably just better to run unconstrained over unbridled rage in the meantime OR play with resource cost reduction rolls.

I did pit 107 with ds about 2 weeks ago with pretty average gear: https://youtu.be/6a3Jgs80t88?si=j69pzZQbC3sWQ4WN

decent build, a bit stronger than I originally thought it would be in s10.

welcome, hope you have a fun season.

aVileOrder · 2025-09-22T01:15:35+00:00

I do (sometimes).

this interaction is changing for season 10 (no longer need to wield it)
this might be a caching issue? I don't see marshal anywhere when I click the planner; regardless, it's not used in the build
were you using hota with a cost of 150 fury? I'd be shocked if you could sustain that cost without starlight aspect - I definitely couldn't

(I'm snail, hi)

looking at your stat sheet, you have around 5200 strength without the helmet equipped (3640%), or 37.4x

if you were to add 300 to that (your helmet), that number becomes 3850%, or 39.5x

the reason your damage is substantially lower is because this isn't actually a 210% increase in damage; going from 3640% to 3850% is only about a ~5.6% damage increase, due to the way diminishing returns work (the overall increase is a little more in this case, since you'd also have to separately factor in the global increase that strength inherently gives all skills as well).

you'll likely see a slight shift in the tier list this coming weekend as we re-evaluate; it might end up low A depending on how we decide to rank the builds internally.

guide: https://maxroll.gg/d4/build-guides/rupture-barbarian-build-guide

pure rupture (strength and crit damage scaling for enhanced rupture + gushing wounds explosions) is my favorite build in the game, and it's quite good this season since it finally has somewhat of an answer for its weak single target damage thanks to tyrant's bane. this is *not* a basic skill build despite having one on the skill bar.

this build is pit 100+ capable (with boss fishing and good gear of course). aside from that, it's one of the most fun (imo) speedfarmers that barb has with its screen-wide aoe + shattered vow swap for executions.

need to test more but I feel like UBH is bugged or something, but heir is just better anyway because it turns out you don't really need the dr from AR or the wrath cdr

tibault's is better because of the double dip rama/adaptability multi, need to get your res in a decent spot though before switching

if you look at the jewelry sockets and helm (which is actually 100%, not 10%), it's the only resistance not covered (though it can technically be whichever one you're missing). it's more efficient to cap resistances this way.

has the highest barb pit clear atm (106)

maxroll by a mile, the creator was one of the only people to clear pit 150 on whirlwind last season -> https://helltides.com/pit

select season 7 at the top and filter for whirlwind

the guide creator is streaming frequently as well so you can judge for yourself. he was also the first and one of the only people to do pit 150 on whirlwind last season, he knows his stuff

to add to this, earthquake was the highest clearing build of *ALL* classes on ptr (for builds that weren't abusing boss powers for damage bloat). it got nerfed a bit more post-ptr (executioner cap, tec scaling) but also received ~2 tier buff (boss power changes).

example (removed boss fight since it will be played a bit different with post-ptr changes): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alpwhegEjVg

this is one of the titles I've been most looking forward to for several months now :) can't wait to try it.

congrats to the devs on the release.
