One of the first classes I played and my personal favorite class is the barbarian. The highest barb I ever had reached mid 60's, but I messed up my build and put to much into Vit which made me have to use axes lower then I could have. Because of that I tanked great, but grinding and questing was like trying to pull teeth or like watching paint dry... Since then I've been trying DD classes, I had a good Wiz, but then they got useless, then a pys and they were OK, but nothing can compare to being the big bad *** tank. b:sin I've been away from the game for a couple months only logging in from time to time, in total maybe 10-15 hours in the past 5 months, so I'm a little outdated. I want to try my hand at a barb again, and I can't make one for a couple days so I wanted to ask for any advice the more experienced barbs have to give, build wise I'm probably going to go 6str 3vit and 1 dex every 2 lvls. But weapons and armour wise 70+ I am positivily clueless, and any other advice you can give would be greatly appreciated. Also this isn't barb related but server wise I'm debating between Arch and HT, but I'm open for opinions. Sorry for droning on and thanks for reading.

(Also sorry for my horrible english)

    cap dex at 60
    for 7x armor you would want 3* gear and when you get to high 70s you use legendary armor, cant remember what they're called. They are really cheap and you can find lots in the auction house. for weapons calamitys should last you to the 90s if it is decently refrined and sharded. for the 80s you still use the same legendary armor from the 70s and you use TT80 for wrist/boots.

    K, thanks for advice, especially on the armour. And for calamities I'm going to go for flawless amber, but what do you think is a good enough refine?

    i suggest not to refine until 90+, or do it if you really have some problems with aggro. But thats no news btw.

    amber shard is really bad for Calamity, use HP shard

    barb is still playable via BH no matter your level, just need the coins from other character to survival =x

    after you are FC able.. look for party that pays barb 100k to tank
