My barb at 50 (build advice)

Hi. I recently started a barb (last month) and I've been following the 3 str, 1 vit, 1 dex build at the recommendation of a friend. Im currently lvl 50. Stats are 54 dex 54 vit rest in strength. Ive come to understand 60 or 80 dex is fairly common for barbs at end game. Would having 100 provide any advantage? Also, should I put less into strength? My goal would be to be sage r8+5 btw. I just kinda noticed I might need more than 100 vit.

I was wondering what my barb should look like at 100 statwise. Current build if I don't modify it would have 104 vit 104 dex and a TON of strength. To be honest im not sure how much strength i should have and I was thinking 150-160 vit might be better to aim for.

Would I have good accuracy with only 60 dex (Im a bit of an accuracy ***** having a 449 dex archer)?

I did check the builds up at the top, and I messed around with a calc a little, but I didn't find a lot of satisfactory information.

Also keep in mind at 90+ Ill have at least +3 refines and immac cits and my skills will always be up to date as long as I have spirit.

Ty in advance for the responses. I'll be back to comment after TW most likely.

    you could just get lunar rings or misty rings for the accuracy and use blood bath, that dex wont help MEGA, that extra unneeded dex could be put into vit or str.

    ok, ill probably switch to a 3 str 2 vit build at 60 dex. Ill admit it doesnt seem like my barb misses nearly as much as my archer despite the accuracy difference (missed stuns suck ijs).

    Whats the average barb build at end game? 150 vit? How much strength? 300? 280?

    And maybe Bloodbath will change my mind at end game. I can't afford to level it now (focus on BTI/SotT/passives/ream/roar for bh).

    hmm u say u want r8 then u will need endgame 300 str and 55dex for the axes alone
    how u wana go with this is up to u i myself dont like to get the stats from gear as if they were to break or shater i would we ****ed and it happens.

    i would think u have to work with those numbers before u can say hp based on r8b:surrender

    Yeah, I did a sort of spreadsheet hp build thing. Think I'm going to get to 60 dex and just go 3 str 2 vit until 100 (100 I will do 1 str 4 vit). That will put me around 300 str, 60 dex (for the extra crit %) and about 150 vit. I also don't like to factor in gear adds to wear things, but I'll make it work somehow I suppose. I'm pretty good with keeping up on repairs on my archer too.

    EDIT: Jeez you guys are abit inactive, Im too used to the archer/wizzy forums Q_Q
