    Shield+Sword WW Barb vs Frenzy Barb

    My goal is to make my first melee patriarch and i think Barb are very fun to play, but i dont know what build do play in hell mod.
    With shield + sword ww i have block more def but with frenzy i can deal better with PIs.Need some ideas, im running countess to get Oath need pul and mal and she dropped ist so i think more some runs and i have the runes.
    That is the best items i have for now.

    I'm not sure what you mean when you say you can deal better with PIs with Frenzy (Lawbringer offhand maybe?), as one point in Berserk with the Shout synergy along with Howl and War Cry (if needed) quickly takes care of PIs on any barb build.

    Seeing as you have the respec option, why not try both Frenzy and WW and see which you like best? Personally I rate WW way above Frenzy but both are effective. Berserk is fun to play as well

    Is there a reason you want to be using a shield? You usually don't need one on a PvM Barb. And 1 point in Berserk takes care of any PIs, regardless of build.

    WW might be easier to do because you only need to gather the runes for one Oath, whereas you need two weapons to Frenzy. However, both are good builds, so choose whichever you think is more fun.

    My idea is Oath + Lawbringer for frenzy, when decrepify proc i can kill pretty save and take some PI out.For WW i want a shield because guides say i can block while ww, max resist, and be like Talic .
    Just did Act2 hell with my sorceress and i dont see how i gonna ww in the tombs with so many skeletons (no leach).Thx for comments.
