i just switched from stone to fortitude on my wolfbarb...so much stronger... lol the price of LO on west went from like 2ist to 4ist. lol economy gone crazy.

imo spirit is the main runeword that is overpowered. ppl would still make it if it had 2 high runes in it. in a week ppl will be like, "what the hell is lidless??"
the only saving stat is that you need atleast 156 str for a monarch spirit unless you make it in a pally shield. so not everyone can use it as an extra level for their cta bo.

fortitude is crazy but fun i guess. i reckon the runewords that work in weapon/shield or armor/shield etc is a good idea.

BUT THE WORST THING ABOUT THESE NEW RUNEWORDS IS: smiters are gonna be so godly now!! with grief and pheonix they will have such high smite damage -.-
i hate smiters already and now what does blizz do? they make them even better.

well fellow barbs, i believe we're running into problems with smiters with over 7k damage smite thanks to "grief". also 3-range zerker. also 6fpa. also uninterruptible.

we can out-life them but that's about our only advantage here. the'yer dealing more damage than us, uninterruptible, and if they're smart and use foh to stun, we're screwed.

ideas?

I wonder if Grief is not also owerpowered on other meele builds
According to the "tech Guru" Tommy Gustafsson
http://www.hut.fi/~tgustafs/weapondamage.html

the +damage on grief would be multiplied by strenght and combat skills just like %enhanced damage directly on the weapon.

So this could give a normal one hander weapon an average damage of 400.

Did you guys say this is on ladder only? This is a poor man's dream!

Edit: Phew, Ladder only indeed. I was getting kinda confused, heh. (I play non-lad) Although all this enhanced damage just may make a zealbarb an actual threat to PvP. Over all, I'm pretty happy I play non-lad, things would be a little too crazy for my taste. :lol:

It seems the day has finally come....it seems Blizzard figures....if they cant drive us away with poor game upkeep they will just destroy any dignity the game had left.......it seems many will stop playing including myself in the near future......Blizzard has finally ruin'd the game....(as if 1.10 wasnt bad enough)
