mana leech doesnt really work in pvp anyways.

That's incorrect, mana leech does work in PVP.
Use mana pots or rely on DTM from enigma or angelics.

Note how I said doesnt really work... which means the leech is nerfed to a point where having it wouldnt make a difference.

That's also incorrect, having it does make a quite noticable difference. And lets not even talk about striking minions in PVP (druid wolves, summons, mercs, shadows) where all leech works at normal PVM effect.

I'd suggest using Draculs or Steelrends as gloves and definetely Gores for boots.
Also if you can get your hands on one,I'd suggest a Fortitude armor.

Mana leech isn't really an issue in PvP,you shouldn't bother with it but rather rely on dmg taken goes to mana.

Ok, lets make some calculation about mana/life leech.
First ; it works in pvp,, second ;follow my calculation and c how much u leech

Lets say u have a ww barb that deals 6k dmg.After pvp penality thi is 1k pure dmg.Now, after dmg reduction of 50% this is 500 pure dmg.
Now lets say that u have 10% mana leech on your barb; well
10% *500 = 50 mana per hit

Now let asume the barb u are dueling have maxed block and 25k def u will have something like 10% chanse to hit him(depending on your lvl), so this is the reason why mana leech is totaly useles in pvp, u wont leech so much as u need to ww constantly.

hmmm Fortitude is a good armor, but Enigma is much more versatile as teleport is quite important against some duelers (eg. casters). Also Enigma gives such a big boost in str so I can free a lot of str, therefore, more hp.

Is it possible to craft a good barb glove? +str, ml, knockback, res ?

If so, that would be prety good hmm??

Btw: I only need mana leech so I dont have to chug blue pots every WW.

Thx for da help guys

Even in this worst case scenario, you've just shown that mana leech is not "totaly useles" (sic.) Ever dueled anything besides another barb? Go read my post again please, note the mention of summons.

Man this is a realistic scenario 10% to hit,, my barb got something around 8% being hit by a same tipe/buld/lvl(no angelics)barb. 10% means every 10th swing will hit,, this is 10 * 34 mana cost=340 - 34 = 306 mana lost, so teoretically u will emtpy your mana after hitting the opponent only 2wice if u haev a mana pool around 600(and that is quite a lot for a barb)

I just try to shown that ml is "almost" inrelevant in pvp and u should go after dmg taken goes to mana, oh and bdway,..

I said 6 kilo dmg, not every barb have so much dmg,,

and bdway about ather minions ,, i dont think ther is a match dueling a fury druid or a ww asa ,with a good equpped barb u shouldnt have any problems killing them.
