Some questions

Hi, im new to this forum (like u can't see it :idea: ) Im back to diablo after a year or so, and Id gladly accept anny advices since Im kinda new to 1.10 yet.
For u to know, im 100% legit player :innocent: who likes to play untwinked, no rushing, etc. I have started a frenzy barb (shields r boring for me, i like to die) and I have some questions about the big guy:
- First of, how does iron skin - shout work? I mean, does shout defense bonus aply after iron skin or do they just add up together? Example, i have 100 base defense, with lvl 1 iron skin(+30%) and lvl 1 shout(+100%), do i have then 230 defense or 260?
- The same question for weapon mastery - skill dmg/ar bonus
- Wich is the apropiate lvl for go to hell (ouch) with my poor gear?
- I know any other info (synergies, etc) listed on the arreat submit, I have read it pretty much all, but was unable to find this. :sleep:

In a side note, I cant feend any of my old freinds (1.09 times) at bnet, and I feel kinda lonely playing public games with my empty FList, I wold like to hear about nice (u know what i mean, legit, good mannered ppl) channels/clans on europe, my acount: *MinaboEntuculo. Thank you so much!

:howdy: hi there and welcome to the forums!
Hope you've read Ash's comprehensive guide to frenzy to get you started.
As for the skill stacking, I assume they are spplied one after another.

for example: 100 damage + 50% from mastery + another 50% from your attack = 100*1.5*1.5 = 225 damage.

Hell is no place for the unprepared, 75 is a decent level for a first tryout (if you're able to make it ).
Good luck on your ventures and you can reach me on *valkenswaerdt if I'm online.

Hi and welcome :clap:

Shameless selfpromotion: KTA people are awesomely nice :lol: ...but our weekly meetings on mondays and wednesdays are full (meaning we have an 8 ppl party) - maybe you wanna still have a look at our "KTA 6.0 roaring along" Thread on this page, where you get to know us all.

I think you will find nicer gear as you plod along and some people trade for Pgems here in the HC Trade Forum..so keep collecting them. Your barbarian questions however, might get solved quickly in the barbarian forum..I am sure they (as all class forums) have loads of info...

Welcome.


I'd check the forum build guides, they still apply in 1.10 since the barbs didn't really get any huge synergy bonuses. Here's my answers...

- First of, how does iron skin - shout work? I mean, does shout defense bonus aply after iron skin or do they just add up together? Example, i have 100 base defense, with lvl 1 iron skin(+30%) and lvl 1 shout(+100%), do i have then 230 defense or 260?
Iron skin is applied first, then shout increases the defense. Iron skin is a base bonus, meaning if you were wearing nothing, you would still have enhanced defense.
- The same question for weapon mastery - skill dmg/ar bonus
Masteries now need to be handled since 1.10 now removes the 100% chance of CS.
- Wich is the apropiate lvl for go to hell (ouch) with my poor gear?
Barbs are notoriously hard to get through Hell with. I would make certain, if you play all HC, that you get a weapon for the character and not venture beyond your ability too far. Hell will always be there, I suggest Nightmare until you have all resistances maxed out and then go attempt swinging in Hell.
- I know any other info (synergies, etc) listed on the arreat submit, I have read it pretty much all, but was unable to find this
What? Arreat Summit not complete and detailed? GF quit work on that last summer, and it was never a place to go if you need mechanics information. Here's where to go for that kind of info:
