    Default Twist of Fate+barbarian help pls

    Right now I have on my barbarian 2,1,0 unlocked and I will soon have another 3 fate points, so I can get one of (3,1,0|2,2,0|2,1,1). And I can't decide which one to get or what to twist. As main ED I'm also torn between Legendary Dreadnought or Fury of the Wild. I'm a little tired of exp farming so I will probably stay this way for some time. Can anyone suggest something please?

    Twisting in sense weakness (tier 4) from Fury and making Dreadnaught is hands down the best DPS you will do.

    I find dreadnought works best for my barb. It doesn't have the instant damage button you get with Fury and adrenaline, but overall damage is higher as well as combat DC's, momentum swing and lay waste. I don't have as many points as you as, but I've currently twisted in primal scream from fury for +5 STR/CON and tunnel vision for the extra damage now that I've upped my fort. I'm going to try and get the healing spring twisted in from Shiradi too eventually.

    Everyone is still playing around trying to get the best combination for their Barb, and the folks whose advice I used to follow closely on here with barbs/fighters I now take with lots of salt as Destinies and new Epic's have really torn up the old barbarian 'rulebook' .

    Sense weakness is great for sure, but that is t4...but if I get one more fate point I guess I can go dreadnaught+4,0,0 for a while and one day, in very distant future, 4,1,1(sense weakness, tunnel vision, primal scream). That would be sweet.

    Yes, but getting a Tier 4 is a serious grind.

    My barbarian is currently happy with Legendary Dreagnaught as his main destiny, and I have 1,1,1 with Primal Surge, Tunnel Vision, and Healing Spring.

It is like going to a museum and bragging about how fast you made it through. Or bragging about how fast you finished a good steak.

    If you already have 2,1,0, can you take back a unlocked fate point, and work for 4,0,0?

    As the others said, it's hard to beat the sense weakness/tunnel vision/primal scream combo.

    If you are willing to grind up to 4/1 , you can use Sense Weakness + Tunnel Vision and forget about primal scream. There is usually someone else in the party to scream for you anyway

    I think so, I'm 90% sure I saw one option to reset fate points when talking to fatespinner. I will check in game to be sure.

    edit: yep, Reset Fate Points option is there.

    I was planning on sticking with Fury for my Barbarian. For one thing I just don't want to have yet another melee that has to grind for a 4th tier twist (as all my non-Barbs have to). Second, my Barb is a Helf healing amp Barb, so the tier III healing amp boost from Exalted Angel is looking tempting, and you can't have a tier III and tier IV together.

    And finally, my Barb seems to do plenty of dps but has been in situations where she goes from ~1100 hp to ~200 hp in a bat of an eye. So have been contemplating <shudder> defensive twists like Brace for Impact and maybe even Draconic Perception. I don't know about the latter but Brace for Impact seems like a done deal--just too spoiled by the years of unbreakable heavy fort.
