Question: Stats on frenzybarb?

[graal]

I´ve heard some people go with lots of str... I usually just have str and dex for my gear and the rest on vitality but will I get Attack Rating problems?

Any advice?

[Michalpusa]

Use Angelic Ammy/Ring combo for attack rating. It will also give u +10 to dex and +75 to life so its worth it. You could use double ring/Ammy for even higher AR but I personally prefer raven frost as my second ring. It doesnt give as much AR as the second angelic ring but cannot be frozen mod is just a must on this build.

So stat-way its mostly vitality?

It totally depends on your gear and playstyle. If you use the defensive skills(battle cry, war cry) more then you can put more str.. with better life charms and more defense you can also put more while maintaining survivability. In the ideal case, a base vit build can reach 3k life which works with decent life leech.

So with the play once a week, not splendid gear and no aiming for being god kind of playing it´s still the old "put all on vita except for carrying gear"?

[zrk]

yeah thats prolly the way to go

What's the AR difference in the Angelic 2 piece and a Metalgrid?

Metalgrid gives you resists, and an extra ring slot for either a second raven or a rare AR/leech/res ring.

angelics gives 12AR/clvl so you hit 1000 AR at level 84, +95 life
metalgrid: 400-450AR, +25-35 res
raven up to 350AR

I generally go with angelics until I've leveled enough to equip two ravens + highlords and still hit well. I like to put about 150+ (after gear) into dex though. The little bit of hp won't make or break your char and it's nice not having to worry about AR that much. I'd rather focus on getting my gear as offensive as possible.

Plus the Dex you get from a raven too. That's actually closer than I thought it would be. Dunno why, I just always preferred a Metalgrid setup.

I play HC though, so if I can find a way to add resists, I do it :)
