Something like:

 

High Mig

Med Int, Per

Low Res

 

Arcana and Alchemy

 

What weapons + equip would you use?

 

Thx

I think Barb is a bit wasted on a Fury since the ranged weapons won't work with Carnage. Except if you want to do a build with Deltro's Cage + helm and Lord Darryn's Voulge and go all storms + Carnage and skip Spiritshift.

 

Then I'd use a Berseker because you can shock yourself with your own Storms for Deltro's Helm - but you'd need immunity against MIG afflictions to not stun yourself all the time. Sadly you can't use Effigy's Resentment for immunity - but maybe there's another way. You could take a Coastal Aumaua and simply love with the Daze. You'll have +4 PEN but +2 from Frenzy and +1 from Fury. +1 from Heart of the Storm...

 

Or better: cast some other shocking spell like Dancing Bolts while confused to trigger the lash from the helmet and then get rid of confusion.

On Potd in patch 2.1 barbs have been neutered a bit because of that Lion's Sprint fix and dual weapon nerf. I now find it pretty essential to multi barbarian with a class that has some form of bonus to accuracy stacking. 

Thanks you two. Sounds like a Barb got nerfed which is unfortunate. I'll rethink this build.

The only thing that got "nerfed" is the +15 ACC from Lion's Sprint that was supposed to go away after the first attack after activation but stayed for the whole duration. I wouldn't call it a nerf but a bugfix.

 

It's still useful to safely land an AoE CC/nuke or something.

 

Dual wielding will be nerfed, that not a barb thing. If you pick the Voulge or the Lance of the Midwood Stag (both good options for a Barb/Fury) and don't use Spiritshift-Autoattacks that much you won't even notice it at all.

 

I'm still playing a Warlock atm (Barb/Wizard) and it's pretty good (especially crazy once you get Blood Thirst of course). I can imagine that Barb/Druid has similar synergies when it comes to nuking. Also as a Warlock your can't use the Voulge or the Lance to that extend (no bonus Power Levels).

I did start a Shifter previously but it got very tedious to constantly shift in every battle. I'm sure there is a better way to play but I didn't find it.

 

Fury just seems like a cool class.

The +PEN on elemental spells is quite nice. Especially when combined with Tenacious. Helwalker/Fury might also be a nice combo.

Verde, I'm considering a barb/fury as well based on the Fate Testerosa build. I posted some questions in that thread recently. Seems like some very cool synergies, and since I don't care for monks from a roleplaying perspective, I'm gonna give it a go. Like Boeroer said, Blood Thirst with nukes works great, and with all the Druid storm spells, I predict it could trigger a ton. I think it will be a fun combination of nuking power with solid melee for backup and cleanup duty. Just gotta take care of confused. +5 PL for electricy and +4 pen will be dirty methinks.

Awesome let us know how it works out!

 

Sucks to lose Greater Maelstrom. Cast from scrolls? That alone has me thinking single Fury instead of multi.
