What's So Cool About This Build?
Alright, Diablo players! Are you ready to see a character that deals infinite damage? It sounds too good to be true, right? But guess what? It's real! And it's coming in Season 9. I first saw this idea from my friend Rob, and I was like, "Whoa, that's insane!" So I tried it myself, and let me tell you, it works!
But wait, how does it work? Well, it's a DOT build. DOT means "Damage Over Time." So it takes a few seconds to ramp up. Most enemies die before you see the big numbers, but on bosses or training dummies, you'll see damage so huge it goes into the negatives! That's right, negative numbers mean you're dealing more damage than the game can even show!
Pro Tip: To see the real damage, attack targets that can't die, like the new Asteroth. Everything else will be deleted before you see the big numbers!
The New Gear You Need
There's this awesome new pair of boots called the "Hooves of the Mountain God." They're super important for this build. Why? Because they give you Fury per second. And when you attack with your basic skill at max Fury, it drains your Fury and makes your basic attacks deal 100x more damage! That's like turning a tiny scratch into a giant explosion!
But that's not all! We also need:
- Disintegrate Power: This is the main power that makes everything work.
- Siphoning Gizmo: This is super important! It's what makes the damage go crazy.
- Berserk Ripping: This turns the DOT damage into direct damage, which multiplies everything.
- Luminous Gem: This dazes enemies and makes you way tougher. You don't want to get hit while building up damage!
The Build Guide
Okay, let's get into the details. I know it sounds complicated, but I'll break it down step by step. And don't worry, I'll use simple words so it's easy to understand.
Skills You Need
| Skill | Why It's Important |
|---|---|
| Iron Skin | This is like your shield. It keeps you from getting hurt too much. |
| FLE (Frenzied LeBron Elite) | This is your main damage skill. It's what makes everything work! |
| Ren | This helps you deal damage while you're building up Fury. |
Gear You Need
The right gear makes all the difference. Here's what you should look for:
- Ugly Bast Helmet: This converts your damage into an element, which works better with the new seasonal powers.
- Rage Armor: This is super important! It helps you stay in "Wrath of Berserker" form, which is when you deal the most damage.
- Fist of Fate: This gives you a chance to deal extra damage and inflict vulnerability, which is important for this build.
- Aspect of Might Pants: These give you extra damage reduction, which helps you survive longer.
- Hooves of the Mountain God Boots: These are the star of the show! They give you Fury per second and make your basic attacks way stronger.
Weapons You Need
Your weapons are like your hands in the game. Here's what to use:
- Moonrise Two-Hander: This gives you extra FLE duration, which is important for keeping your damage high.
- Shard of Ariththal: This makes your basic skills do more damage, which is perfect for this build.
- Rapid Aspect or Earthquake One-Hander: These give you extra attack speed and damage, which helps you ramp up faster.
Rings You Need
Rings are like secret helpers. Here's what to use:
- Aspect of Berserk Ripping: This is super important for making everything work.
- Wrath of Berserker Cooldown Reduction: This helps you stay in "Wrath of Berserker" form longer.
Skill Tree
The skill tree might look confusing, but I'll break it down for you:
- Get FLE and increase bleeding damage.
- Get extra Fury generation.
- Get the shout that gives you more Fury.
- Get damage reduction from Iron Skin.
- Get extra damage from War Cry.
- Get attack speed from Booming Voice.
- Get damage reduction while berserking.
- Get extra crit chance from Woodsman.
Pro Tip: Make sure you select your two one-handers for your weapons. You want as much attack speed as possible!
How to Play
Alright, so how do you actually play this build? It's easier than it looks! Here's what you do:
- Start attacking with your basic skill. It might seem slow at first, but trust me, it'll pick up.
- Once your Fury is maxed out, your attacks will start dealing way more damage.
- Don't move too much! This build works best when you stay still and let the damage build up.
- Use your skills smartly. Save your big attacks for bosses or when you're surrounded by lots of enemies.
What About the Nerfs?
I have to be honest with you. This build is so strong that I think it might get nerfed. What's a nerf? It's when the game developers make something weaker because it's too powerful. But don't worry! Even if they nerf it, it'll probably still be a really strong build. It might not do infinite damage anymore, but it'll still deal way more damage than most other builds.
Important Note: This build is designed for higher Paragon levels (around 300). If you're just starting out, focus on survivability first, then work your way up to this build.
Final Tips
Before I let you go, here are a few final tips to help you master this build:
- Practice patience. It takes a few seconds for the damage to ramp up, but once it does, there's nothing stopping you!
- Stay still when attacking. Moving around can interrupt your damage buildup.
- Focus on survivability first. This build can be a bit squishy if you're not careful.
- Have fun! This build is all about dealing massive damage and dominating the game. Enjoy it while it lasts!
So there you have it! The ultimate Barbarian build for Diablo IV Season 9. It might seem complicated at first, but once you get the hang of it, you'll be dealing infinite damage in no time! Happy gaming, and remember to have fun while you're at it!
