I've played Diablo2 a long time, so I'm not a newbie but I haven't played a Barbarian since V1.09 and I never got too far with him. I only play Hardcore and usually untwinked in single player because I like to go slow and pick up almost everything and am very greedy when any rare, set, or unique drops. Hardcore just makes it more exciting and very challenging.

I need help with what someone would suggest for a first V1.10 hardcore untwinked Barbarian. I was thinking about going Frenzy but I'm not sure if it requires alot of equipment.

Thanks in advance

edit: The most Important thing is the enjoyment of the build. I don't really care if its challenging and I might die a few times before I make it past nightmare, but I would still like someones opinion

There are several barb guides for 1.10. Depending on what you want to do, you'll find a good guide there. Welcome to sc--best of luck!

Frenzy is a lot of fun, so is Whirlwind.

Just make sure to get Berserk for those places with Oblivion Knights and to be careful in NM with Fire enchanted bosses.

Good luck =)

I know how to create most builds, I was just asking what build would work well with one who wasn't very familiar with the Barbarian.

Aerath: Thanks, I'll probably be making a Frenzy barbarian, hopefully I will enjoy it and get him through hell.
