Hello everyone! Barbarian PvM suggestion?
Posted: 26 Sep, 2014 23:22
Hail to you my friends.
I'm new here, and discovered this great Belzebub mod the other day.
Diablo for me has been a defining experience as a gamer and as a person - I'm really into RPG stuff, I run games as a dungeon master and I build dungeons tiles for tabletop games with miniatures and when I think of "fantasy RPG", Diablo is what comes to my mind.
There's no such thing as this: occult, black magic, haunted chatedrals, demons, Satanism, sword and axes. And beards, I'd add.
Now let's go straight to the point: I always played as the Warrior when I was a kid and managed to finish the game. I never had the opportunity to play Hellfire and never tried the Barbarian.
Thanks to Belzebub mod I have been able to make Diablo work on Win8 perfectly and I'm playing as a Barbarian.
I noticed that I have completely no magic and can't use spells. From a RP perspective, I'd never use a spell in my life as a barbarian. But I'm in Caves level 10-11 now and all those acid spitters, archers and the Succubi in the woods is driving me mad. My movement speed is atrocious, I've got no shield, and while I can kill most of the abominations in 2-3 hits with the very useful Cleave skill, the coward vermin always run away, and literally dozens of missile attacks coming from off-screen are raping my barbarian. It's embarassing to say but It's really how it is.
Is there a Skill that will let me cover a long distance like the Diablo II leap?
Raising dexterity to wield a bow seems like a bad idea, I guess...? too many points in a completely pointless stat for the barbarian.
Forgive my ignorance. This is literally my first post here and I'll try to adapt in little time. Thanks in advance, I look for some of your wisdom and knowledge with the game.
