barb/bleed build

[aFiend]

hey guys,

what's your favourite bleed build?
really struggling on curse 7 to get in range for subdue.
but everything else seems a bit weak.
i finished a run with 6x shockwave, took like 20min tho.

thanks in advance

I had a curse 7, 5 cycle run (purple portal not red) a day or two ago. Died to random insta1shot as the build was still killing everything on screen in .5 seconds.

4th weapon on barb, all bleed skils with subdue which will be the full damage dealer. skill tree was whatever (char level 112ish). Oh and very important I ran the skill, Scent of Blood I believe it's called, that gives you cast speed based on bleeds. That got me over 3000% cast frequency by the end of the game.

Masteries I'm not sure what I ran, and don't believe there's a way to check - I was running the -1 dash 50% block mastery I know. Otherwise I think it was DoT oriented (I didn't have the new 50% more dot damage at the time though.) Think I was running lots of defense - health regen at low life. Maybe the knockback/15% reduced damage node. Otherwise not so sure.

Don't think it mattered too much though - once I had all bleeds and scent of blood it was shredding everything up until I was just getting insta 1 tapped in the last round. I'm sure with more balanced defenses it would have gone farther.

Didn't notice any subdue range issues on that run, but figure it's because I could kill bosses so fast I didn't need to worry about range and that was due to all the bleeds + scent of blood and a good early start.

It kills things faster, but not mandatory.
It fits perfect in the build, since you have 2x Swing and 4x Slam, so you may get Synergetic Upgrades.
