Help with my PvP Throw Barb Hi, I need help with my PvP Throw Barb: Skills: Max Throw Mastery Max Double Swing Max Order Max Leap (or Shout?) +1 on Natural Res, Iron Skin, Faster R/W, Frenzy Pre-reqs Stats: Str - Base Dex - 132 (req. for my Eth Warshrikes) Vita - Rest Engery - None Equip: - Upped Eth Arreats - +2 Eth Arkaines Valor - Eth Warshrikes, Lacerator - Dracul's Glove - Dungo's Belt - Goreriders - R-Frost, Bk-Ring - Highlords (or Cats Eye?) Inventory: - Barb Torch - Mastery GC, rest 20 life sc. - I was planning on maxing shout but someone told me to max leap. What exactly will maxed leap help me accomplish? Should I get more Dex? Also, I'm thinking of either Highlords or Cats Eye. Highlords with +1 skill and deadly strike, but Cats Eye for Dex + R/w. Not sure. Also, are Mastery GC's ok? Because combot Gc's dont help much. - Any comments or critisms will be useful Thanks
You seem o be amassing high def items despite the fact that you are gonna be dualwielding and most prob won't stand a chance against melee anyway, Surely arreat's is nice anyway, but maybe that arky could be replaced? I'm not all into this and I'm also planning to make a thrower atm, maybe a Duress or Forti would be a better choise? or maybe CoH / Enigma. But I would wait for the "real" barbs to give their judgement.
to be honnest throw barbs are not that feasible in pvp, alot of chars will prolly beat u also the fact u lack tele makes things worst. secondly u never use skillers they give some of the worst returns, it makes more sense to use max dmg/ar/life scs or ar/life sc,lc,gc instead this will give more hp and still support ur attack dmg and ar better. Vs mele of any kind u will need a source of DR, i.e switching that arreat for a CoA berber when needed. Also leap is used for the knockback radius but this is more for a BvC but could be implemented on a thrower. If u want to make a pvp barb a ww barb really even a bezerk barb (hardcore more) are the only real feasible builds some try singers but they are not as successful either.

Is maxing Leap necessary for PvP? Because I tried on Gorefoots and I was able to Leap pretty far with good knockback. That would leave me with more skills on Shout. Also, is 132 dex good enough or is more required?
