should i prioritize skiller charms or ar + dex charms ?

The guides normally go for max damage + ar charms

Btw what is CS and WSK ?

CS =

Chaos Sanctuary = Diablo runs
WSK = Worldstone Keep =

Baal runs

skillers for a ww barb are almost worthless, sharps and fine ftw

wsk= world Stone keep
cs=

Chaos Sanctuary

AR- my ladder barb is still using angelics....

and what is like THE single best weapon like something that has a low drop chance but is insanely strong ? ^^

For attack builds, with very few exceptions (comes to minds now only

Windforce, Ethereal upped

Ribcracker, Ethereal

The Reaper's Toll), your end game best weapon will be a Rune Word
Best weapon for WW is

Phase Blade Grief (if use dual weapon) or a Ethereal Breath of the Dying (if use 2h weapon)

so focus on assembling max dmg + ar grand charms with dex or strength for dps ?

I'd rather go with str. If you chose to use Grief

Phase Blade, you should invest enough dex anyway.

thx guys for the tipps this helped me to get a better understanding of the class c:

My end game build would be something like this:

Not much AR, so you better be very high leveled. Gores are better, but I like having a decent amount of mf for PVM. 37FCR feels a lot better then 20, for me it definietly worths it (i made the sheet without godly items and med rolls, ofc you can get better rings to achive that:P).
3K life rest str. Having a decent mana pool is quite comfortable (~600+ if you can). 75ias, CNBF, reaper merc to gain advantage of your FCR.

Do you have to chug mana pots or not really?

Well, I only played it in LoD, but with a decent mana pool, high damage, and leech somewhere was basically enough. Sometimes a pot here and there but not regularly.

I got one and rarely use a potion, coz the char is on double leech and dmg.

I use

The Grandfather and

Doombringer but other than that, this is my build, and actually it is far more efficient with double Grief. Charms are not fixed, any 3 max damage + life, attack rating, magic find etc. small charms, 6 max damage and with the same mod large charms or 10 max damage and with the same mods grand charms are good to go. Or near of them.

I forgot about Hustle for the merc as a weapon... I need to try it out, thanks!

I tried, but the radius is very short
If you just "play normal" you will rarely get the bonus.
You have to keep seeking your Merc ... which is pretty annoying...

That's true too, I'll have to experiment with it and see how it goes.
