What level are you in D3? - Page 4

52 Monk, haven't quite started Hell yet (waiting for a friend to catch up). Hopefully Hell is a challenge as Nightmare was stupid easy.

Level 60 barb. Working on Act 1 Inferno.... oh the pain.


I ran 2H all through hell. I used the following skills

Cleave with Rupture rune - Large packs just explode.

Seismic Slam with Strength of Earth rune - I chose the run because you save half of the Fury cost so you can spam it more often. Great for cleaning up ranged adds or harder mobs that you need to keep away from you

Furious Charge with Merciless Assault - Instant refresh of the ability when you slam into a pack of 5 or more mobs. Just awesome. Change the rune to Dreadnought when you hit 56.

Ground Slam with Wrenching Smash rune - This has great synergy with your cleave since it pulls the pack of mobs in tight so your cleave explosions just damage all mobs around you.

Warcry with Invigorate rune - 20% armor,10% health and a passive heal over time... yes please. Great for the oh crap moments when you have to run while the hot gets your health back up

Wrath of the Beserker with Insanity rune - 100% more damage. Act bosses melt.

Passives - Bloodthirst, Ruthless and Inspiring Presence


Typical play style is Furious Charge into the pack of mobs, Ground Slam to stun and pull them in close and spam cleave. Most packs are dead before the stun wears off because of your cleave and its rune.

For elites you have to be a little more cautious. I generally do not charge in. I save it as an escape. Just ground slam and cleave. If you are taking a lot of damage. Retreat pop your wrath of the berserker and spam seismic slam. These packs may not die from that combo but they will be so low in health that another ground stomp and cleave and you should be good.

For act bosses I replace cleave with frenzy and any rune really and replace seismic slam with hammer of the ancients with smash rune. Hit th boss until you have 5 frenzy stacks then pop wrath of the berserker and spam Hota and the boss should die before your berserker wears of off.


Sorry for the long post. At work so cant get to a talent calculator.

Game just got hard in Hell mode act 2 for me. Prior to that it was super easy and very solo-able. Drops are also worse in Hell mode for me, can't wait for Inferno if I get there. Oh yea playing a Barb currently 53.

Level 35 barbarian , and at ton of Hardcore around lvl 18-20( since my friend was alway dying so we were making new one )
around 10h played on barbarian

Awesome, TY that was very much my solo build, guess I will try it in group.

All five characters level 13. Might have to upgrade to the full version now.

60 Wizard Farming for Inferno

Also a level 60 wizard farming inferno. Importflip, what dps skill are you using? inferno is very stressful.

Lvl 10, but won't get past 13 since I have starter account hoping to get the key to upgrade sometime soon once I sell some stuff I got laying around. I'm glad they let you upgrade so you don't loose all the progress even though Act 1 was very short and I went through most caves if not all. I don't think I even do 2 hours.

Skeleton King isn't the last boss of Act 1.
