I have a barbie .....he has 65K HP at level 147, Nirvana gear...but somehow its disturbing that he dies so quickly, not actually die, but his HP goes wayyy down so quickly when engaging a few mobs at once. He is sage build and i would say he is most probably the vit build kind? Im really not so clued up on barb things...but so willing to learnNow I am wondering what I am doing wrong or is it just the way it goes? Its not just magic mobs, the physical mobs too. Both seem to really hurt him
that hp in human or tiger form? and the vit builds generally do have higher hp than most barbs. it might not just be you, but when i had a vit barb, i kinda died quickly as well. to me it seems like more str gives you defense lol. but thats just my opinion
Well i feel like ive had enough experience playing with all the different build there are out there for barbs [Tongue] . i dunno if this can work with other tanky- like classes, but here it goes.1.Pure Str. build: (reccomended demon culti)Pros- very high attack damage, and a very high physical defense. leveling in pve wont take long because of your hard hits, and a demon str barbs can own!Cons- since you have a high attack and defense, you will sacrifice dex, crit hits, and most importantly, your hp. that kills you in lower levels too.-Stats- 3 str, 2 vit odd levels...3 str, 1 vit, 1 dex even levels (its a pattern)
2.Vit Build: (reccomended sage culti)Pros- you have a TON of hp. lol makes you good for tanking, very high phys defense (vit adds it if u didnt know), and you take forever to kill in pvp (3 dragon sins all demon sparked on one vit barb and he still didnt die... o.O)Cons- SACRIFICING overall attack damage...its very minimal, that dex is very low too, so you wont hit people that much unless you use blood bath...-Stats- meet weapon requirements, and dump the rest of your points into vit
3.Str/Dex hybrid: (reccomended demon culti)Pros- nasty nasty nasty...in a good way of course. most dex/str barbs choose to go aps because of the ability to use claws/ dual blades. they are very tough to kill and since we have a higher dex fused with a high attack, hard crits are common.Cons-we have a somewhat low hp, but generally higher than str barbs. (thats just about it..lol)-Stats-meet the str weapon requirements, then the dex requirement for claws or dual blades. after youve reached both caps, dump the rest into vit.
4.Str/Magic hybrid: (choose either sage or demon culti)Pros- you can tank the wizzies/psys/mystics/clerics/ ETC!!!. magic definse will be a high one, so will your mp points. plus, since you still have str, your attacks wont be so bad either.Cons-basically no hp, very low phys defense, and you are just kinda odd...you can use patakas...o.O. surviving in pv will be a toughie...so you will need tons of skill!-Stats- meet gear requirements and dump the rest into magic

Well i feel like ive had enough experience playing with all the different build there are out there for barbs [Tongue] . i dunno if this can work with other tanky- like classes, but here it goes.1.Pure Str. build: (reccomended demon culti)-Stats- 3 str, 2 vit odd levels...3 str, 1 vit, 1 dex even levels (its a pattern)Wrong, Pure str is... pure str. You get your dex upto 84 (with gear equipped)and the rest goes to str.2.Vit Build: (reccomended sage culti)-Stats- meet weapon requirements, and dump the rest of your points into vit For vit build you need to amplify on the 2 types of vit, the arma spammer and the Cata barb. Also cata barbs (The Tank) use r8 full defence weapons. 3.Str/Dex hybrid: (reccomended demon culti)-Stats-meet the str weapon requirements, then the dex requirement for claws or dual blades. after youve reached both caps, dump the rest into vit.Again, Theres 2 types, theres pure dex and aps barb, pure dex barbs have minimal str and 400+ dex. aps barbs have 300 dex or so because of claws/dual edges.4.Str/Magic hybrid: (choose either sage or demon culti)-Stats- meet gear requirements and dump the rest into magicThis... the most pointless build ever.
Okay, so I have a question, unlike BMs and Venos, Barbs don't have a passive skill that increases dmg from claws/edges! So, how can you say they do good dmg when Barbs use them? (and I'm asking this, coz I really don't know about it and would appreciate any help)
Time to go stat my barb to magic [move]LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL[/move]
