Well i was wondering if it was possible to like, make a barb and go "tank" for a while. Til it gets to about 80 and then re-skill / restat to a DD barb?


Would be possible....Too much trouble or idk?

    you can do this but getting to level 80 takes very long i wouldnt advice rolling like this anyway i heard you can go off the pure tanker build at lvl 90 but definatly not earlier 70 til 90 is like the time you definatly want pure build after 90 you can refine loads and make up for the lost hp but a DD barb i wouldnt recommend that ever if you want to DD melee class roll a bm
    its impossible to always do the right thing we all make mistakes i am not different from that
    just try to be a good person

    english isn't my native language so there might be a few spelling/grammatical errors in my posts

    A small question slightly related to the topic.
    lv55
    vit90 str149 dex45 mag6, now i've figured out that i may have messed up a bit and need to shift some points, from dex to vit but how much
    Respect the ZONE and it will repay in kind, tho remember, once a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. allways a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. , there is no escape

    There is a way to be a DD and tank barbarian.

    Get lots of strenght and some vitality, then put some citrine shards in armor gears and garnet/amber shards in weapon. (Garnet shards in armor gears are kinda useless)

    Go in normal form and max flesh ream/shapeshifting intensity/true form and others normal form skills.

    DD in normal form and tank in tiger form.

    With this build, you will be ownage :)

    What you should definitely restat is the 6 mag. Reduce it to 3, which is the minimum. My guess is you could leave the Dex as it is, because at level 70 your Dex requirement will be 39 (40, for the extra crit), at 80 it will be 44. You are almost 60, don't waste your time on restating the Dex. I had 40 Dex since level 40ish. Also, at lvl 70 your Str req will be 212, at 80 it will be 242 (I think). Bear that in mind.

    if you want to DD and tank, 2 choices.

    either pump in dex and strengt

    or shard up

    i reccomend keep the tank build and get 2 misty forest rings and imac or flawless amber shards your weapons.

    this will improve your accuracy great if you want to DD
