View Full Version : Weird barb helm - gimme suggestions for usage.
Found a grey barb helm (don't remember type, at work atm, but it was found from the armor rack in tower cellar lvl 5) with the following stats:
3sox
+3 to War Cry
+2 to Whirlwind (!!!)
+1 to Increased Speed
req lvl 30
Now... I was thinking maybe a whirlwinder with no hardpoints in any of these skills, or a singer with WW to sweep the floor.
This is on single player RRM/RWM. I just started over, so my only character atm is a lvl 81 hammerdin in the beginning of act 2 hell and with only half-decent gear.
Maybe save this until I can build some sort of ultimate WWer?
That would make an absurdly good hat for a low-level Wolfbarb to use while leveling up enough to use Wolfhowl. Generally speaking, the biggest weakness of Wolfbarbs is the lack of attack skills prior to equipping Wolfhowl, and this would not only solve that, it would also give some War Cry (another useful skill that Wolfbarbs tend to skimp on).
Never built a wolfbarb. Must build wolfbarb.

some llds pay a lot for 3sox helmets with +to ww. The thing that it's only +2 might be reducing it value by quite some, however helmets with whirlwind are very rare as is. And any source of it might save you lots of skill points in prereqs and such.

Crap, it wasn't increased speed :( it was stamina. Oh well, guess those two skillpoints just have to go.

If that was increased speed and it was on the realms I would have made you rich...
Not as rich as if the thing was +3ww +3bo +3ispeed but we can dream can't we?
BO is a skill I ALWAYS max on my barbs anyway, but getting war cry AND ww for free could make a very interesting ironbarb or frenzybarb... could even try and max two masteries O.o
