Re: What armor is better for a frenzy barb

Fort is better IMO. In PvM the extra damage from Fort is much more valuable than the skill teleport and skill bonus. A point in Leap Attack will get you many of the benefits of Teleport (i.e. getting through the Arcane Sanctuary quickly). For a physical-damage melee build skill bonuses are not as important as enhanced damage and crushing blow (which you get from other equipment).

Frenzy barbs aren't normally for PvP, but if you intend to try that then Enigma might be a good choice. ButI'm not a dueler so I may be wrong.

You can't beat teleport. Leap attack doesn't even come close. Unless you're running pindle but then you'd be using MF armor anyway. So if you're already going for duped gear at least get teleport.

How does the str (damage wise) bonus from Enigma compare with the +%ed from fort?

AFAIK not even close, its 1% for every str point added

Depends on ur taste. Fort will give u lots of damage and defense while enigima allows u to fly.
