A few Barb Questions plz...

[compubuy]

1) Please explain why ba grief/beast is better than ba grief/grief. The latter would give a HUGE damage boost, wouldn't it? So please explain in detail why the small AR boost, damage boost, and CB boost on beast would be better than the grief damage boost.


2) Does the torch charm put you in casting animation if it activates firestorm during a whirlwind?


3) Is there anyway to deactivate the firestorm? Wouldn't it get annoying?


4) When dueling a windy, can you block tornado?


Thanks for your help and expertise.

2) no torch does not activate firestorm as Chance to cast does not work with Whirlwind

3)NO or just don't use torch which is not recommended.

4)Yes Tornado can be blocked however using a shield vs a windy is a waste of time it is better to duelwild with max dr.

1. The resson why is that the second hand weapon attacks alot less then the primary weapon. If you ready my table you would have learned about that. That is why it is alot wiser to just increase your primary weapon damage and attack ratting.

Oh I see, so let's say a barb is attacking 12.5 times per second which is the fastest I believe, how many times is the primary weapon hitting? Thanks

1) greif/beast so you can hit the very last bp as stated by pumafang

2)As puma said, ww can not do a ctc (chance to cast), but if it could i would be very scared of ww baba's

3)Cant deactivate the firestorm if it triggers since its a ctc, but you can take it off which is a terrible thing to do, imo.

4)I was pretty sure that nado is unblockable (except claw block can block it and d/a/e can d/a/e it lol), but you can reduce its dmg with DR% and dmg reduced by xx ammount.

If im wrong someone stop me :grin: !

HMMM I think tornado isnt blockable.. Kinda why a werewolf using a ebotd gpa, shafstop, and verd. owns windys in the first place..

Also why when I use a sword barb I make shure they can use that weapon as a 2 hander. But thats just me.
