He’s also doing some Lililith specific stuff with his gear, which was something Sorcs actually first innovated on in their Lilith kills, and now the top Rogue and Druid builds are doing it as well, so good to see Barbs doing it too. By dropping No Mercy(since it doesn’t work here anyway) he’s able to pick 3/3 Expose Vunlnerability to ensure all his Hotas have Vulnerable and Berserk applied.By dropping challenging shout, he’s able to pick up chains for perma Berserk.He’s not even taking some the best dps skill points(like No Mercy, or Power War Cry) because they don’t work on Lilith. Of course he’s ignoring all defensive skill points, and not taking challenging shout, but it goes even beyond that. Looking more in depth at the build, this really is a “pure Lilith only” build, but some of the stuff he’s doing is pretty clever. If I ever get to uber Lilith on my Barb, this is definitely the build I’m gonna run. If Lilith has shown us anything, it’s that the best way to killer her is to just do so much dps that you avoid her mechanics all together. This build doesn’t run Challenging Shout, so it’s mostly useless outside of this fight, but I do think this is the easiest way for a Barb to kill Lilith. I think we’re gonna start seeing a lot more Barb Lilith kills now. In theory, this puts Barb’s closer to the other classes. Really awesome to see innovation like this. It rolls much much higher than the other DR affixes. The thorns NMD100 used that principle along with all of the regular DR mitigation.ĭR while injured is particularly valuable in high max life specs because there’s still so much HP left when it kicks in. I don’t think it would work for NMD100 (most of the Uber Lil builds so far have been derivations of NMD100 builds) but he’s showing that Uber Lil doesn’t do enough damage that you need to go defensive heavy - max life plus DR while injured is enough. He’s specced for full DPS (doesn’t even take challenging shout) and manages to mitigate by just pumping max life + DR while injured. Posted this on the other thread but it’s worth emphasizing that his build is very different from others - the innovation is on how he specs for defense (not stacking armor or regular DR but rather going with high life + DR while injured), which enables him to dedicate a lot more towards DPS and get those chunky 30-50M hits over and over and down her fast.
