Hey guys, here’s my take on the Lightning WW Barb build. I have found it to be pretty effective so far and really like it. It does require some specific gear in order to be great, so keep that in mind.

You want a lot of % to Lightning skills damage and, ideally, you would want a Thunderfury and a Shard of Hate as the weapons. Also though if you don’t have those weapons a Fulminator and Odyn Son are great choices of weapons for this build as well. This build can scale up pretty well to higher Torment levels once you have some nice gear.

Build Notes

• I like the extra dmg that comes from Rend with Bloodbath. For higher difficulty levels you can also switch to Rend with Blood Lust.
• If having Fury problems can swap out Superstition to Animosity.
• Can also switch out Rend for Weapon Throw with the Lightning rune for even more Fury regen if needed.
• I usually keep Wrath and Earthquake to kill elite packs quickly.
• Use Overpower as much as possible. Doesn’t cost any Fury and CD is reduced when you get Crit Hits.

That’s pretty much all there is to this build. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube videos and come hang out with me on the stream.

Here’s an awesome powerleveling method that can help get you some major levels. It does require a couple of people to do, preferably a lvl 70 friend. This is probably one of the fastest powerleveling methods out there.

Yes, I do realize in the video we do have the 50% community xp buff live. Even without the xp buff this is probably one of the best.

Hell Rift Bounty Run Breakdown

• Needs a couple of people. Preferably one lvl 70 to boost the lower level character.
• Have the lower level player make a Torment VI Adventure Mode game.
• Looking for the Clear the Hell Rift bounty in Act 5. There are 3 different possibilities of bounties here: Clear the Hell Rift, Kill Hammermash, or Kill Sledge. It does require going in and out of games until you get the Clear the Hell Rift bounty.
• Was able to get my friend from lvl 2 to lvl 14 in one run.

Alright, that pretty much sums it up. Make sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel and feel free to come hang out with me on Twitch!

The other day I did a video showing the Act III event farming area for experience. It was pretty popular and just brought one question to mind that I couldn’t find the answer to. Where could someone do the same type of powerleveling on hardcore?

Well, I found this spot today. It’s safer than safe and all you do is turn in a quest. It doesn’t involve fighting monsters, or heck…you don’t even see a monster at all the whole time (the setup doesn’t even have a monster).

Yes, like the other area we are depending on an event to spawn so this can get kinda boring. I recommend you have some friends come along and help you out. Fire it up on Torment VI and go. Check it out and let me know what you think!

Run Breakdown

• Start on Act 1 Trailing the Coven quest. Take the waypoint to Wortham Chapel and run until you get the checkpoint right before entering the spider cave.
• From there every game you will have to run backwards a bit to see if the vendor with the cart spawned. If he did grab the quest and turn it in to the hermit next to the spider cave entrance.
• Having friends help find a game where the cart spawned is a great way to speed it up a lot.

Here’s the WW/Avalanche build I’ve been using on my Barbarian for a few days now. I like it as it can kill elite packs on Torment 1 pretty quickly and can also be useful on single targets (bosses) without getting Fury starved. That was the problem I kept running into with my last WW build. Anyway, try it out and let me know what you think.

Build Notes

• War Cry with Charge rune is mainly there as a Fury generator. The 50 Fury you can gain from it is pretty nice.
• I went back to Rend with Bloodbath as I don’t really need the extra healing from Blood Lust rune anymore.
• Earthen Might is another nice way to get more Fury.
• If you want more speed, you could take out Battle Rage or even War Cry and go with Sprint. That is really nice for low difficulty bounty farming.
• Paragon Points placement: Under Core, Movement Speed as needed to hit max (25%), then Maximum Fury. Under Offense, Critical Hit Chance, then Critical Hit Damage. Under Defense, All Resist, then Life Regeneration. Under Utility, Life on Hit, then Area Damage.

UPDATE: This run has been nerfed as of 4/8/14 with patch 2.0.4.

Hey guys, I’ve seen a lot of people talking about the Manglemaw runs and how good they were. I was a bit skeptical but after an hour of farming him I was able to get 3 legendaries to drop.

I know, I know….an hour isn’t really a good indicator of a good spot or not.

I still felt like this was good to share with you guys. So, here it is. Try it out and let me know how you do farming here for legendaries.

Manglemaw Runs Breakdown

• Start on Act 1 A Shattered Crown, Open the Northwest Gate.
• These runs require a bit of setup, so start at the quest above and run through to the Cemetary and until you find Defiled Crypt Level 2.
• Once you get there and Manglemaw busts through the door, don’t kill him but click on the door so you get the checkpoint.
• Once you got the checkpoint you can kill him, go to town and leave the game. Rinse and repeat.
• I recommend doing this on the highest Torment level you can.
• Make sure you don’t have Firewalkers on or anything that would destroy the door before Manglemaw comes through it.

That’s pretty much all there is to it. A group of friends and a super fast Torment 6 kill is ideal for this. For my 3 legendaries in an hour though I only did it on Torment 3. Do what you can and still kill him quickly and easily. Give it a shot and let me know how you guys do. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel and come check me out on Twitch!
