I've only recently learned of the singer barb. Messing with one now. At level 32 and it's doing ok on p3. no issues really just not that fast but I'm undergeared for the most part. Merc with insight is a big deal and frostburns help a ton for now. Probably should have waited longer before spec'ing into singer but there it is what's done is done lol fit'n to keep rolling with it though.
One variant of this Singer I really enjoy is using Metalgrid on him to get an Insight Iron Golem. Then can use a RT Merc as well. Iron Golem does pretty well for survivability as the stun effect of Warcry means he's not getting hit too often. Or for massive survivability, can even do a RT Iron Golem and an A2 prayer merc with Cure and Insight. Singers are really fun overall, and have a lot more diversity in their builds than a lot of other builds.
Thank you for this. Glad to see this build broken down and explained. I will definitely make this in single player. Seems really easy to gear. 1 question, what about your weapon swap. I don’t believe you mentioned that at all or swapped weapons at all. It is convenient you don’t have to but it also seems like a waste not to use 2 more weapon slots. 2 ideas come to mind, ali babas or mf gear for horking but you lose SO much fcr which makes horking slower. The other idea being carrying a wizard spike and a amplify damage wand to deal with physical immunes, but like you said, you may as well just skip those mobs. What do you recommend?
@@SweetPhil thank you so much for the speedy and informative response. I’m glad you cleared that up. Great quality of life not having to swap gear for such an amazing mf build. I’m still curious if maybe there’s an option for swap we aren’t considering. Another idea comes to mind now, self wield infinity on swap OR dual wielding wind runewords for increased movement speed in town. Infinity gives 35% movement speed, 2 winds give 40% total but it costs sur el. Both options are not cheap. But it would be interesting to say the least.
If you want to level as a Singer barb (if you want to save the respec, gettin to level 30 hurts), putting 1 point into Leap goes a LONG way. Once you have Enigma you don't really use Leap anymoer, but it helps a LOT if you want to get somewhere safely.
Eh, it seems efficient but it's like against Barbarian theme where you are supposed to hit with your big weapon :D I would like to see War Cry to have larger area + dmg but go on a 2-3 sec cooldown instead. I wish there was some valid 2-handed leveling build with some aoe splash damage.
People say they know about the diminishing returns of MF but then get 500 or more anyways. 100 is plenty. 200 is overkill. There arent even that many good uniques. By the time you have p8 killspeed you have found all the useful ones.
@@ensen1626 I may be wrong but I dont think MF affects charm drops. You typically get the good ones from cubing anyways. But the diminishing returns still apply to rares. 500 MF vs 100 MF might get you one extra godly rare per 10 years of gameplay, IF your clear speed is the same.
Damn delusional much? Going from 200 to 500mf makes a MASSIVE difference, and since this channel is SP/Holy grail focysed which I can see from ur comments that you don’t play

For Phys Immunes, I opted for a Fire Rogue/Act 1 Merc with Insight bow

I literally don't carry anything on swap for the reason you said. You already have like 500 mf. Don't need more. Horking slower is painful too.

Sweet Phil Special Slayer Build! Almost as Special as an Oghreeei Axe!

AHH OHH AHH OOOOAHHHHH
Holy shit I just now noticed it’s your face on the Barb lol

Physical nova.

don´t forget rare items and charms. often more expensive than uniques

@@Magge67 Yea try googling diminishing returns diablo 2 MF. Let me know when you are done learning.
@@hueysharapova7175 Diminishing returns are still returns. 50% increase in unique drops is still a LOT, especially when you're hunting rare drops.
I think my singer barb has Laryngitis
It should be called bardbarian.
Hork Nation!!
tzar bivol
to much investment for me for a build that can't do alot
