I wonder what it would look like if you actually ran 3 piece angelic with the body armor. You'd only be down +1 skills (because you get a +1 on the amulet for the 3 piece) and you'd get another 50 fire res on the body armor. You could then consider running double rings for 100% mf and a TON of attack rating, could even have the weapon on hand/on swap for another 40% mf from the full set bonus when you find item. I feel like people sleep on 3 piece angelic with double rings, but that's a lot of MF you can get early on. Regardless, great video as always!

As soon as i can run 2angelic rings i usually start building my phys characters. Only problem really early on is that the amulet can be a biyatch to get. And the setbonuses are tough to justify if you can't use the amulet as 1 slot, cuz the amulet itself is actually decent. Another favourite is Tancred amulet+boots. Gives 30% runspeed, and 78%mf, pretty neat. i ran it with death belt+gloves this season on lowbies for CBF,30%ias,15 all res. Up belt once and its a keeper.

Pretty fun build, thank you for sharing! I'm trying it out with my level 91 barb in singleplayer. I am not having the best damage performance on players 3 - the AoE damage doesn't seem strong enough. Grateful if you could answer couple of questions: 1. What stats should this build prioritize? Is crushing blow important? 2. Upped Heart Carver or Grief Phase Blade - which one should have better damage output? 3. My attack rating is at 8.3k, should I use angelics amy and ring instead? 4. Do you know if proc effects are triggered by the AoE of leap attack? 5. What off-hand do you recommend for late game? 6. Any other replacement for Lawbringer? I find annoying Lawbringer's cold damage shattering monsters and the slain monsters rest in peace effect preventing me to use find item! I only use it for act bosses, but for physical immunes I've been playing around with Lightsabre + Crescent moon and am about to test Lightsabre with an ethereal cryptic sword Oath. My current gear: Grief Ali Baba Skullder's Ire (+1 to all skills and MF armor) Arachnid mesh Rare Tiara )+2 to all barb skills, strength, life and fire res) Mara's Kaleidoscope amulet Stone of Jordan Rare ring (6% life leech, +20 strength, +15 dex) Chance Guards gloves Waterwalk boots Barbarian Torch 3x Combat skillers On weapon switch: 2x +3 BO sticks

Anyways,hes actually been p fun to level w the various unique daggers that usually no one cares about. Diggler in the right hand and malice kriss in the left w twitchthroe while using double swing and blade mastery in the early game has been super fun.

Great build/concept! Does Heat Carver's Ignore Target Defence not work with Leap Attack, or do you need to have ITD on both weapons before losing the Angelic set? My only issue with Sazabi's set is how hard it is to find if you're not trading or are single player. It doesn't strike me as a "this character can find it while levelling" piece, even though in terms of its value it is budget.

@@MacroBioBoi Berserk? I was referring to leap attack. If weapon ias has any effect on the jump speed/time between landings then that might speak for onehanders. The other part is wether the grief bonus getting modified will be close enough to the raw damage from 2h botd to justify using that + offhand option for resists/mf/fcr. Thus my question if 2h or Grief and how close they are. Thematically, i just cannot stop myself from smirking when i imagine my barbarian leaping through the air with an EBOTD Thunder Maul pulverizing anything on impact making a big ass crater before leaping of in again in a cloud of dust and pulverized bones....
