I'd say you got screwed by when they scaled back the damage/need for defense in Inferno. Otherwise, that would be. Beastly shield. Should still get you a decent sale. Good luck!

how much resist do you need nowadays? lets say, as a barb (meaning there will be a bit of armor in the mix)
450-600 prob np
through all acts?
Yeah, (sorry slow reply) assuming we're talking about mp0, maybe mp1. Unless your damage is really low and/or you have zero-ish LoH/LS/regen, I think you'll be fine and comfortable with 600ish. I did all my class Inferno clears in HC with around 600-700 res all. Monk had more, WD had less, but that's a good target I'd say. I think I had 7k armor or so on barb and had 0 LoH/LS -- I used Ignorance is Bliss for my lone heal XD.. very gimp barb.
alright, thats alot less than when I did inferno on my first barb. think I kiilled diablo with 900 res, 9k armor and 800+ LoH
Yeah prior to Monster Power patch, the 1k res / 10k armor / 1k LoH was more the safe HC target for barb.
So I've been running my barb on normal MP10, cain set, and a gem, 248% xp bonus. In the middle of A3 and already lvl 33, which I think is about the lvl I am when I clear normal. Just face rolling everything. Think I'm going to work on progressing all my toons through normal before I go home.
Hardly groundbreaking, but I took down normal Diablo with my barb. Ended up at lvl 35 after all the xp bonuses. And pretty badass because I did it all with just a trackpad. Fight was cake. In fact the only fight that was remotely annoying with Ghom. Question to other people, if you've used a full cain set (and whatever MP, I did 10 and probably will continue to do so) when did you find the diminishing returns not worth using cain's set anymore?
I used it right up to 52 when the azmoball rocked my face. Never really had any issues with hp or poor stats and I wasn't throwing big bucks at anything but a lv req weapon.
Sorry for your loss Sira. Stupid Azmo!
I'll try to continue using Cain's set. I finished at lvl 35 with around 8.6kHP. Which seems a little low? I just know that my lvl 40 DH that I stupidly lost had about 14k hp at lvl 40. But, I won't be messing with Nightmare MP10 until I'm home anyway, and can get a real feel for things.
You can pretty much spec and gear whatever you want on MP10 until act III/IV'ish in hell. Wear cain's or not, it doesn't really matter until that point as long as you are not completely retarded.
I've always found that late in hell is where I have to start more seriously gearing my characters. I prefer to use a mediocre (read: minimal technical requirements, i.e., crap) set of gear and grind until I hit 60 in act II hell. Then I just gear up for what I want at mp1 inferno for that character and finish hell, without having to spend extra gold on a gear set to get me from 50-60.
Hah, thank you Plow.
But I think it was only doable on barb because I take next to no damage and can just left and right click to kill anything. I don't think I'll try this with other toons. Very much looking forward to my mouse when I return home!
Hey guys! I had a longggg hiatus. Got emo over losing 600,000,000g to a client crash.. then had finals, but I finished school and got my B.A. from THE University of Michigan.. GO BLUE! Then went on vacation. Got home, found a job out of state, and just finished moving. I'm hoping to be playing aggressively again over the next couple of days. See y'all soon on battle.net :D
Certainly not record breaking, but I'll take it after the stupid shit that's happened recently. -_-
Major grats Fireal! Hope to see you in game when I'm back!
And nice work Sira, sorry I missed you when you invited me to play/ Mouseless barb master always works better in groups!
Back in it! Fireal hurry the fuck up and give me someone with close DPS to play with. >
Holy shit thats ridiculous.
I think my WD does like...30k.
