How much life for a WW Barb?

[godornotgod]

I read the guides above, as well as another one that had some trouble with duped items. Anyway, I basically figured out that a BvC barb should have in the 6k range of HP, and thats if he's not pure vita.

Here's the problem. I've spent every single skill point, up to level 82, into vitality. I have a total of 5766 hp with grief + beast, 5886 with ebotdz +beast/ss. I'm really not understand how people are getting 6k with ease with nonpure vita builds, whem I'm having trouble just reaching 6k. I do also have 18x +20 life scs, and without that my hp would be considerably less. What, exactly, am I doing wrong?

firstly u need to lvl some more cuz a BvC is far from complete in the 80s ideall yu want to reach the lvl 90 ranges which will affect hp quite abit.

Secondly when u state "ss" i asume u mean storm shield?

If yes why are u using a storm shield on a bvc as these have no block, if u want to get maxblock make a BvA.

Also u should not relly on the ebotd for any stats also grief is better dmg wise.

mind listing ur gear and stat layout of the barb?

Also, charms can give quite a bit of life, 600 * 2.39 = 1434.

Something is seriously wrong if you do not reach 6-7k life with a pure vitality build. Heck, my crappy-geared barb would reach 6.7k life if he was pure vita. Right now he reaches 6110 with 65/49 base stats.

Yes, getting rid of a) fortitude b) light stack armor (which I could not use with base str) c) widowmaker would make it so that I could have for example 2x +3 wc daggers, +5-6 bo helm, +3 wc amulet, 2x bks and a few wc sks in my inventory. That can add about 10 levels to my bo. That would make my life into 7546. And that's with +586 life from charms and +8 life from boots.

haha i used to be the king of prebuff i think i used to carry a 5 bo deli, 3wc amu, 2x bk rings my old bva i had like 2x wc skiller switch in but that was too much hastle so i stoped that.

Now i just carry a 3 wc amu and i ditched all the other prebuff gear.

My old BvC pure vita with the prebuff gear mentione above exlcuding the charms was reaching 8.2k or so life :grin:

And Smiters never say how they own all with their GriefZ?
And Hammerdins never brag about how they can beat most characters?
And D2jsp people do not brag with photoshopped screenshots?

The answer to all is no.
