Increased Stamina/Speed. Necessary?

[compubuy]

These skills almost seem to me like 2 wasted points. Increased Stamina of course IS a dead skill point, but you need it for access to Increased Speed.

Is increased speed worth 2 skill points for a WW barb? It makes your WW target go out of range quicker, yes? Please give me examples of how it could be useful in pvp/pvm for a WW barb who can teleport.

My inclination is that it might be better for a teleporting WW barb to add those 2 points into something more useful like taunt/battlecry for pvm or Iron Skin/Leap for PVP.

Thanks

Increased Speed will help you desync better. 2 Points is worth it.

speed is a one point wonder for pvm

[compubuy]

Oh, I see... but if you can teleport will you really be running much in duels? Or is the dysynking really a part of strategy when dueling certain chars?

What does desynching mean in regard to WW??

Long wws randomly desynch. I suggest 4 pts. if you are pure BvC. More frw is also nice when namelock wwin lowlife bowzon, it will appear to her that you are miles away, but actually you are 1 to 2 inches behind her, she might take the chance to turn around fire at you, and bam. Also outrunning bs from necs are very useful, the extra frw will be needed vs Fohs, when you have forti equipped.

For PvM, I suggest you don't waste those 2 points, and either boost Iron skin, or try what I did : 1 pt in find potion (prereq), and 1 in Find Items. With 2 x echoing weapons in switch, i have a double drop for a single kill (Eldritch, Pindle, Council)... Found Carrion Wind yesterday on a Hork !

And indeed, FRW gets you quicker out of range when WW-ing, so less hits/ww so less leech and less deadly.

but yet, for PvP's triangle whirls this is only good, since it will speed up your triangles thus giving you more dmg over a smaller time, and also speeding up your kills.
