Is that the Barbarian were going to play? - Page 5

I think the devs are doing a good job with the characters. They gave a back story on both the older male and the younger female variants of the barbarians. Remember, after the worldstone 'sploded their culture was devestated and essentially fell apart. Also, I like the idea of having the older barb along with the younger wizard. It gives the characters much more depth.|||What the hell are you talking about, the barbarian being the new cain?|||Quote:

A bigger, better Cain. The new generation (20 years later) never saw or even faced the threat of Prime Evils before. Only the original 7 (d2 classes) did and fought the Prime Evils head on, and whoever still alive from D2.|||Ya, the necromancer's in a retirement home now, casting Iron Maiden on the nurses|||actually i think the necro would be casting Attract on himself. haha giggity giggity.



but uh to respond to that 40year old warrior outdoing a 20 year old almost made me laugh.

maybe if the 20 year old is some huge noob that knows nothing. back in the days of swords and war 40 years old is OLD like old man... its strictly science the younger male has better musculature and is more vibrant and physical its called youth. and with the same training as the old man, the old man wouldnt stand a chance against the younger one with more endurance and physical prowess.



that aside, i actually like the older barbarian. he looks like a grizzled combat vet thats seen things no man should see. IMO he looks way cooler than the d2 barbarian with his *** ponytail and shaved head. i wouldnt mind some customization of the characters but i understand that it becomes moot when u get gear that covers up everything u just customized.|||Quote:

That is why he needs to hit em more, to get the juicies (fury) going. |||Quote:








I prefer the Old Barb. He is kinda like Old Snake.



Bad-***.

.




what he said..|||the barb reminds me too much of a paladin with the paladin skills hes got now. like charge.there seems to be to many skills we already have in the new game sadly. maybe theyll fix it.

also his attack speed seems really slow. is he wearing base attack speed items in the video?. is theyre gonna be a way to increase ias?. i hope so if i buy it.|||Quote:

In the diablowiki you can read some nice skills that add some speed

For example in the Berserker Skill Tree:



Frenzy

* Active Skill

* Rune Sockets: 1

* Max Rank: 1

* Description: When attacking with Frenzy, the Barbarian's weapon damage and attack speed are increased. Frenzy can be used repeatedly, stacking the speed bonus up to three times.

o Rank 1: Deals 120% weapon damage. In addition, attack speed is increased by 6% for 10 seconds. (Up to 18%, with stacking.)

* Fury Cost: None







Onslaught

* Active Skill

* Rune Sockets: 0

* Max Rank: 1

* Description: Increases attack speed by X%. Drains Fury while in use. Lasts for X seconds.

* Fury Cost: None

This was another description that was very hard to read, so no values are available. The skill's function is clear, though. It increases the Barbarian's attack speed for a few seconds, and drains Fury all the while. It runs for the allowed duration (around 10 seconds per use) or until the Fury runs out. (More Fury can be added while this skill is in use, of course. Hitting things with a super speed Barbarian is a great way to add Fury, after all.)





Looks like Onslaught works always, with each weapon or skill you use.



And there are also some passives increasing the duration of these skills.

And we don't know about the equipment yet.|||*Bob the Necromancer casts LifeTap on sexy nurses*
