The board that u updated today is BY FAR THE BEST BOARD IN THE GAME RIGHT NOW. GGz

[@Merkadis]

@@kostistsiutras4373 its literally insane! :)

[@chrislucket]

The link is different. Which one is better?

[@kostistsiutras4373]

the link it utilises more dps and dominate glyph, more overpowers all the time and instead of innner calm i placed the swap 8 times weapons for even more overpower aspect on gloves @@chrislucket

[@Reaper78665]

i've seen both your videos and im built like your 20 clear build.this build was originally robs boss killing build i had it then got all the uniques i don't use steel grasp but its that build before the glyph then it got wonky after the glyph .what i learned at the start is without marshal and not using both our original rings it throws the shout timing off.thats why it might feel better but we new that from the start of d4 for us barb mains it will lvl back out to what it was once the glyph is gone .keep up the charge gg.

[@chrismay25]

Edit- after trying build Just did 3 test runs tier 9’s like the content and appriciate everyone in the community trying new stuff out. Gonna switch back to my previous build as way more AOE. Just changed paragon and skill tree. My gear is min maxed and have all the Ubers in game. My attack power went from 78K to 62K moving.. I will let you guys know shortly if its better than Rob’s build or other more popular streamers. If so ill sub

[@Jason-ig3fg]

Rob is using a WW / hota combo build and this this build is way better, at least for me.

[@chrismay25]

@@Jason-ig3fg yea I’m using his first build posted couple days before start with minor modification’s. I was dying in team play tier 9 and 10’s. We were running 12-13 before. I did like the fury gen. Etc. He is on to something for sure. Just not there yet for me

[@joseurbina7327]

Share build pls

[@SamuelBrady-n1d]

So stoked your video came up as a recommendation! Been experimenting with chains and nota last night and your take on the set up works extremely well. Still no uber uniques but this build has good foundations to build on. Subscribed dude. Keep up the good work mate.

[@commonsense364]

You earn a sub. Only few of the content creator who help with the challenge instead of whining from the challenge😂😂

[@jarnold420ja]

I followed just your paragon board so far and have all but one of the glyph to 21 yet and I’m at 57k attack! You earned my sub. Have blood glyph at level 2

[@Darkwing29]

I run still grasp always. It’s the only way to play. Super fun. Ur the first to mention it.

[@davidmarrero3238]

Ty this loadout is great just having an issue where when I evade not getting power back

[@Merkadis]

you have to make sure your unstoppable falls off before evading again to get the proc from tibaults

[@roosterfu231]

Great guide I will have to try this out! I completed t14 but lack the damage to get past t15. Too much defense which you don't need with selig atm.

[@FloresMervin]

Bro you doin way better than most right now! Heck yeah!

[@macet092]

Great build! How are you getting to over 100% fury gen? After jewlery and shako, it adds up to approx 80%. Thanks in advance.

[@Jason-ig3fg]

Thank you for the response.

[@Jason-ig3fg]

This build is the best i have found, pretty incredible considering you hardly played barb. You have my sub and ill spread the word about your channel. Any tips on my resist would be appreciated. As it is i have to put fire on my chest and my poison is only 35%, i can get 12% more with a ring but after that i have no idea and you don't even anything on your chest. How in the world are you max resist on the other two that aren't on your boots? Thank you again , really appreciate this high level guide, you are pro. Cheers.

[@Merkadis]

I appreciate it bro, thank you! I get 3x resists on my boots, then use a gem for each of the other 2 types of elements that arn't on my boots, in my jewelry for the 30% resist to those, followed by 1 diamond (all resist) in the 3rd piece of jewelry and then in my paragon I top it off with an all resist magic node which gives me max resists for all elemental types.

[@Jason-ig3fg]

I had to adjust the paragon board to add fire and cold resist and I’m max now with 3 resist on boots. Lost the legendary decimator node but that was my only option. It did allow me to use a much better chest. Still can’t figure out how you do it but it’s ok. I’m on level 12 now and it’s still pretty easy so this is a great start. Cheers.

[@vmurc8732]

Do you have the left click combined for basic attack, movement and interact? Thanks

[@typtyp7]

Good work buddy!

[@Adeesm]

What helm properties and aspect can I use in place of Shakos? As for slashing weapon, i do not have grandfather so what two handed axe/sword properties and aspect should i equip instead? and is doombringer good to use for this build?

[@Merkadis]

use typical stat sticks in place of grandfather; str/all stats/overpower dmg/berserk dmg ... doombringer can work well with BLT variant and if you're using any basic skills use might on helm to make it similar to a shako, otherwise fit in whatever you need (dr or more dps)

[@Adeesm]

@@Merkadis thanks for the reply! sorry but what’s BLT?

[@Merkadis]

@@Adeesm banished lord's talisman (amulet)

[@Kaienowaty]

Great build! Can You tell me why Marshal Glyph? Its only like 3.6 sec less duration on one shout, and You not use Bold chieftain aspect on ring so without it Marshal kinda usuless. Or im not right, please explain, thx :)

[@Merkadis]

I just like to constantly test different things all the time with aspects/paragon stuff, but the d4build guide is up to date with what I feel is best overall (currently not using marshal) d4builds.gg/builds/50509c2b-10e1-4106-9bff-560e36af52ff/

[@martin3058]

​@@Merkadistry imbimber instead of dominate 🙂

[@patrickksung157]

Where are you getting the lucky hit chance from? When i use this i have 0% lucky hot chance

[@martin3058]

Is maximum shadow resist even needed?

[@matthewbeach104]

I dont understand how you got all your resistances up. With only having resistance on your boots. Someone please explain!

[@Merkadis]

3 resistances from boots, 2 implicit resists on rings (cold and fire) with 1 gem of each type in them as well, with a few more all resists from paragon = maxed all resists

[@ayulujp]

Thank you for this!

[@Maalacharizard]

So i switched to this, i have 116% fury generation, but for some reason the dungeons feel different today, one hit from an ad takes almost half my fury and i cant sustain it, whereas before i cohld sit on one spot and hota all day long, so idk if something is broken, or what

[@Merkadis]

DR helps you keep more fury up whenever u get hit

[@Maalacharizard]

@Merkadis I have a ton of DR so I guess I'm just an idiot? 😂, idk spent hours messing with it last night

[@Merkadis]

@@Maalacharizard maybe try cycling your shouts 1 at a time, like using one 5-10 seconds after the other

[@csmith947]

I just have no luck getting all the stats I need on my gear... its really annoying.

[@Merkadis]

It's tough for sure

[@vmurc8732]

What potion/incenses do you use? Thanks

[@Merkadis]

resourcefulness and mainly just the chorus of war

[@Kaienowaty]

Why You have damage to bleeding enemies if dont have any bleed source ?

[@Merkadis]

I do have a bleed source, in the skill tree (tough as nails)

[@dcasi34]

Will this work without Shako/Selig ? Just wondering. Thanks

[@ayeyaaar2890]

No

[@Merkadis]

Not nearly as good, no.

[@stevenb4399]

What do you recommend to people who have no ubers??

[@Merkadis]

farm some, I think they upped drop rates for the event (not confirmed) but seems like a lot more people are getting drops lately from what I've heard in chat

[@iDeldar]

@@Merkadis Not rly. No drop rate update :( Im on 1000x Run now. (i do in 4 grp not all 1000x my mats) I got ZERO, 0 Uber.

[@Merkadis]

@@iDeldar 0 ubers in 1000 runs?? sorry to hear that!

[@iDeldar]

@@Merkadis Yeah mate. i have give up now. No mats left. No gold left to buy runs :(

[@iDeldar]

Im Stuck at T7 in AoZ. no more dmg i can do for get over T7

[@orrikolaxus]

How are you getting so high Maximum Fury: 289? I could only manage 201

[@Merkadis]

resource potion and gear/paragon

[@orrikolaxus]

@@Merkadis ok, thanks

[@killswitchxci2562]

Hello. I have a question. I dont have the grandfather's uber but i have everything else. What can i substitute for the grandfather's? I have 2 handed axe with the elements aspect on it.

[@Merkadis]

sounds like you answered your own question bro :D

[@killswitchxci2562]

@Merkadis oh okay. I was just wondering. It seems like there was something else I could replace it. Thank you sir and great video and build.

[@culleniom1986]

Can any content creator actually make a build without selig for these higher tiers
