get more cb and stack some res and you should be fine
I'd toss on a set fo drac's too. Life Tap helps... alot!. Your going to have to use concentrate and not ww, since you wont be leaching mana in there.
1. what is life tap???
2. so i get mana // life leech from only concentrate and not from ww??
3. so best is to have alot of leech and resistanse
life tap is a necro curse that allows you to steal a boat-load of life. Drac's have it, which fires off on hit, However will not fire off when attacking with ww. It will work with consentrate.
Its the only way your going to leach- for the most part. You just can't effectively leach in uber-trist. Without the ability to leach normally, ww is pretty much useless-no mana sorry.
So stacking leach is mostly pointless. Stacking resist and CB(crushing blow) is what u need to do - as stated.
So, you can uber with your barb BUT- you need a different set up gear wise - more space...

to survive uber tristram, you have to rely on lifetap.
whirlwind doesn't trigger it, and most barb attacks are too slow to cast it often enouph.
the only viable uber-solo'ing barb build is frenzy. any other type of barb doesn't stand a chance.

Actually frenzy is the best choice for uber barb. But conc is viable, slow yes, but viable.
I have 1 pt in conc on my BvB ww barb and I have solo'd without dying and without major pots. It's just not easy, and it requires alot more gear and a good build.

Ubers are not nearly as hard as you give them credit for, it does take some common sense but nothing that can't be done. Any build can Uber as long as you have tap, a few juvs, some nice resists and a decent amount of crushing blow.
