seems no appdata in the steam folder,
Just got that, nothing good for level 60, but with the -7 level requirement a level 53 can use it, imagine rocking a 1019 dps 2 hander in Hell at level 53
Nice - need me one of those
Just hit 53 last night I think, that'd do 3-4x the dps of my current axe!
Played through up to the Skeleton King on Hell last night with 2 mates. Got one shot killed by him 3 times. More VIT Needed!!!

Fool.

Doesnt make any difference, anything above 350dps 1h weapons and you 1shot stuff. 50k dmg crits or 120k dmg crits dont make difference when mobs have 30k hp.
--------------
Other than that its quite nice but 0str totally fails, still some idiot that doesnt know stats increase dmg more than dps will probably buy it for quite a bit.
As a barb you 100% have to stack defenses on inferno, it doesn't matter if you don't have a single DPS stat I don't think
wrong. You need to kill stuff fast as well because no matter what your defense is you cant tank it forever. There has to be a balance.
Its better to have 700res and kill stuff in 2 hits rather than have 1000 res and take 4 hits to kill it.
I'm just replacing all my all res/physical res with stuff that has as high str on it as possible because I can't finish act2 due to too low dps. I dont take that much dmg anymore with over 1200physical res, 9k armor and ~900 all res but 10-11k dps is definitely way too low. Need at least 14k so to whoever hasnt got gear yet for inferno act2+ and wants to buy some - do not bother with just stacking max defense, collect your gear slowly but make sure you buy the best piece possible and it better be str/vit/all res/physical res or at least very high str/vit/all res and armor.
Thats how I've finished act1, I've had 0 resists, extremely low armor and low hp - instead of that I've been 1 hitting things with 30k dps and up to 70-80 with wotb up for champ packs/boss.
For 2 it didnt work out that well but again you just need to get to certain point in gear and once you get that you can smack your way through with 2hander/dw and half offensive passives at least.

Neglecting elites/champions having significantly more than that and there been some mobs with much higher health.
Coop will give mobs several times more health.
Though I agree on the 0 str part. It does limit its usefulness but it is certainly an exceptional weapon for lvl53+ and should still be good in inferno for a while.
My Strength is already stacked really quite high, compared to my current weapon I'd only be losing 50 strength or so, would still be over 800 strength. Got lots of attack speed bonuses that brings about most of my dps.
The raw damage being that much higher than my current weapon would work well for me I reckon. Happy to buy it off you Flibby depending on the price.
As Evilsod mentions, I'm not one shotting stuff, not even the weaker enemies at the moment (unless I get a nice critical hit)
Most non special enemies are 5-10 hits. (1 attack a second on my current axe I think)
Oh, I'll have to try that. I normally roll from "Kill the Siegebreaker" and there are around 2938750982735098253 Blood Clan mobs.

Started hell yesterday,2k dps 22k health on my monk,some blue and yellow bosses are giving me a hard time,died a few times already.I had to adjust my build again in order to survive.Game is much more fun now though,really enjoying it.I just hope to get some better loot and not use the AH,want to keep my 400k for inferno.
cleared act 1 inferno with my barb and my demon hunter now - played act 2 and the difference is night and day, act 2 is much much harder.
gone back to act 1 now as the gold is good and methinks i need some new gear
Life on hit, stack it as much as possible. With Frenzy, you'll find yourself a lot more survivable.
Also get a shield with 20% or higher block.
Your first legendary should be string of ears, with its 10-20% physical reduction. Can be had for a little as a few hundred K's.
Your second legendary should be Justice Lantern, +11% chance to block, on a ring, which means you can even use two of them eventually.
Also anything you see with STR/VIT/All Res, buy it. If you scour the AH its found cheaply sometimes.
Use the resistance shout as well as the attack slowing/damage reducing shout. Elective mode lets you do this. Revenge will do enough damage if you can just stay alive. Your passives should be -20% magical, Vit->Armor and armor/thorns+ (they really make a huge difference in survivability!)
Hope this helps you in act 2.

My bad. That was a typo. You wanna do it after the ballistae and trebuchet. Also try using Cluster Arrow with the Loaded for the Bear rune it's very handy for taking out the spear throwers and moloks especially if it crits.

are you playing with something other than a DH?
Everyone knows drops are only ever good for characters you aren't playing
apparently even more so for the character you never intend to play, really dislike DH
