how should i build a conc/ww barb?

[fax-machine]

im thinking one of these should do the trick

20whirlwind
20concentrate (its my main atack so i should max it right?)
20battle orders (we can't live without it)
20weapon mastery

or

20 ww
20 bo
20 mastery
1 conc
20 ironskin

and how much do you add to shout?

[volrath aka A_A_F]

max shout before iron skin it gives more def if u go that rout witch way u would rather go however is more up to u sorry im tired was just going to delete but i cant lol gl with ur barb

[fax-machine]

ok then hows this look?

weapon mastery20
bo20
shout20
ww20
conc1

will this work well for pvm pvp or dclone?

if i need to go max conc ill just take away some shout

It looks how it should look. The rest points should be dumped into iron skin/berserk.

For PvM - the 'best' build
For PvP - the 'best' build
For DClone - not, pure zerker owns here since DC has so high phys res.

what are dclones resists
50% magic
95%fire cold lightning

50%/50%, still I've found berserk better.

Crushing blow will take care of him with WW as well, you just need a very high AR.

Well built javazon, smiter or zealot will kill him much much faster than any barb.

I've got a level 85 ww/conc/zerker.

20 pts weapons mastery
20 pts BO
20 pts shout
1 pt Conc
1 pt Berserk
My remaining 14 pts are going into Iron Skin since I use a polearm.

I'm having tons of fun with this build. You'll use ww about 90% of the time. Hal recommended not putting any more points into conc because its not used as much and the iron skin would be more beneficial. I have to agree.

A point into berserk is always recommended for all barb builds to deal with PI and IM. A point in conc is necessary to get both ww and berserk. So technically yours is just a typical ww build.

In order to be a true hybrid, you'd have to put more points into your hybrid skill. IMO, it is not at all necessary to add extra points.

From the extremely productive discussions above,we can derive the following equation.

If con/ww barb = max ww,bo,shout,mastery,1 con.

then yes u should build a con ww barb.
