according to plan I can either afford improved Damage reduction enhancment line or the Damage reduction boost line.

Wich one would be the best choice ?

You can't use boosts together, so DR boost may be nice but you can't use it with damage boost.

And I hate clickies of any kind.

But that's not to say the DR clickie is bad, if it tickles yer fancy go for it.

Sorry you didnt understand my post

THere are 2 enhancment lines with damage reduction

one gives a permanent damage reduction and the other enhancment line is a boost
Wich one is better to spend your AP on ?

Does it? Me personally I would go for perma dr, I like passive effects better...

Definitely go for the permanent damage reduction instead of the boost if you are going for a pure barb or 18/2 barb build.

The reason is that by the time you are high level your normal barbarian DR plus the permanent DR enhancement is nearly enough to match the DR clickie without a lot of AP investment... and it's on all the time.

Also (although I'm guessing you know this already) remember that a Barbarian's DR does not stack with the warforged DR/adamantine. So if you are a warforged barbarian don't waste AP on enhancing both.

DR boost is good for low level, like when you're getting assaulted by hobgoblins in Irestone Inlet.

At level 20, DR boost is a waste of AP. Go for perma DR.
