The Unstoppable Force vs The Immovable Object
#12
Yep, I have same problem on my Wiz. Upgrades needed for Act 3 cost a bloody fortune - and it is a hard Act right from the start.

It is kind of strange to me though, because with almost all my chars, I usually found Act 2 to be harder than Act 3 in prior difficulties because of the monster mechanics of the former. My WD just hit Act 3 Hell last night and after kind of dragging through the second half of Act 2, I feel powerful again. But on Inferno, this isnt the case, Act 3 is a very large increase in difficulty from Act 2.

You have pretty nice damage on that Barb, even if it's a 2H. I rarely see Barbs crack 25k. I find survivability tough enough though with sword and shield, and more hp - but I guess that is the tradeoff. For Act 3 though, I think you will want more hp (and to consider going sword and board) - my Wiz has about 44k life with roughly same dps as your Barb, and even as a kiting char, I still find it very difficult to survive even the trash mobs. The elite packs are plain too tough, in most cases. I'm kind of stuck because I have pretty good items (at least I think so), but apparently not good enough, and upgrades are just too expensive on the AH now (and non existent in drops).
