Need Your Expertise - Best Current Options For A High Powered Barbarian Build Within My Restrictions

No data yet

Description

I've been playing barbarians going back to the original Diablo. I like the fact that they can tank so well, can solo anything when well constructed, and there is a lot of fun gear to play with. What I have increasingly grown tired of is the need to whack each and every bad guy on the screen with either your sword, or an
Axe
, or a
Maul
, etc. That has gotten VERY old. Its why I felt the need to start dabbling in bowazons, but they are too squishy to solo well, or farm well at high levels.

To overcome that problem with my barbs, I created
Whirlwind
builds in the past. While most of the quality build guides still recommend that as a supposed top barbarian build, I have literally not seen a single barb using ww since coming back to D2 when the Resurrected - ROTW. Not one. That can't be by chance.

So, I'm about to respec my level 50 barb. I have no idea what my best options might be for a truly powerful build that does not require me to whack every enemy with a weapon. I am not interest in yelling a lot of war cries, or throwing things (unless it works like a bowazon does and mows down everything around you).

I would appreciated any thoughts on truly powerful barbarian builds that fall within what I am looking for, and can reliably solo, and farm at high levels. Any assistance appreciated. Thanks.

At lv 50, I use poison 6os weapon x 2 and
Frenzy
,
Double Swing
. it will be just enough to play nm and let level to 59 which you can equip Grief.

the other soso but okay is dual wield perfect blood letter, play WW. But it is not strong as poison bar.

Please be aware, all my trade is in non ladder d2r. Not warlock.
