Quote:Just a few Q's, Is warcry damage physical or magic damage ?
Warcry speed is based on FCR IIRC ?
Any suggestion for items/otherskills ?
Physical.
Yes, based on the barb fast cast breakpoints.
Well, skillwise you will most likely need a point in natural resist. Leap(not leap attack;the knockback on leap is nice) can be very useful to enter the center of a large mob and begin Yelling. My warcry barb also put a point into find item/potion; with the + skills and tons of mana you are likely to have, they will be useful at 1 point. Find potion can help refill your rejuvs; mana potions do nothing for a barb with over 1.5K mana. Warcy sucks mana like nothing else, if you expect to kill with it that is.
As for items, go for items with as much +mana as you can find. Forget about energy, the ratio of MP/energy to HP/vit is too poor to bother with it. +mana gear will add up real fast with a high lvl BO, and with low str/dex most warcry barbs can easily top 4-5K life, and 1.5-2K mana.
Get a melee merc. Hopefully one who can tank leaders in Hell. Mana burn is your bane. Warcry barbs are one of the most underrated types of characters, and are tons of fun to play. Good luck.
