Top possible TWF DPS Numbers (Not a good build)

[Ihsan]

I think you are all wrong half-orcs will produce the best damage Just playing around, its interesting to read all of these TWF builds to gain ideas and footing for what i might make ingame.

TWF Half Orc barbarians require one thing to be true to their P&P selves.

It increases agro generation from melee attacks. Basicaly a tanking thing and the justification is it makes monsters stick to you.

That is also what I had assumed, but given that he has "Barely any AP left over for rage length enhancements lol".

His explanation is that mobs must not run around in order to reach "max twf dps u need to stand still and have the mobs beat on u, u cant be chasing them!" Imo, seems like someone is trying to make the build more horrible thna it really is..

PS. Who beat you to first Hard Shroud completion and opened the first level 19 chests in the game? Wasn't that RANGERS?

Shroud hard is lvl18 chests, max lvl14 items. Completing hard doesn't get ya any lvl19 chests, youd have to complete at least parts of elite..

Shroud Elite is lvl19 chest, max lvl16 items... Since were on that topic, i wonder who beat shroud elite first? Think there was 1 ranger in that group, a good friend of mine, oh and some old barbarians were there too cheering him on.. lol

Nice example on how to find the flaws in someone's speech and totally overlook the message. Congratz, your skillz are mighty.

Not really, to me there's horrible, and theres horrible, theres no distinction in exactly how horrible heh..

I'm just pointing out the difficulty in attacking mobs while moving with TWF.. It's incredibly more difficult to do then it with THF.. Makes a massive different in killcounts if nothing else.

So yea having the brute fighting thing would have a very minor impact on it.

It's just a special thing i do for certain players who like to use insults in an internet forum. Im sure you understand.

You made me smile on that one.

My point was that this build could stengthen his weaknesses by having those points free. In fact, you didn't even use all the points if I am right.
I really doubt this build is as bad as you say, I'm just too lazy to very it myself.

Well it's not designed to be a complete guide or playable template, thus it is purposely incomplete.

The main thing that makes it unplayable are the additional attack penalty for maxing out power attack.. I find with just getting 3 ranks of it it's hard to maintain a high enough attack bonus - with 6.. Near impossible (needs max gears/tomes/warchanter buffs)

Then the massive agro you generate coupled with a -50 healing penalty and no additional DR makes for some unhappy clerics.. Tho certainly it can work in the extreme case of having a dedicated sorcerer repairbot.

I dunno i guess any build is playable given the right situation, just the right situation for this one won't happen very often..

Brute fighting --> Healer's friend

As for DR, with mobs hitting for 40ish damage, the additinal DR represent very little in comparison. Sure it helps, but not a Big difference.
