1. Which version of the game are you playing?  I know I've offed more than one barb by swinging for that much while IM'ed.

2. I know that range wasn't nearly enough to keep my last Avenger running, even with Meditation thrown in.  And I had a much lower-level Vengeance then you're touting.

i play 1.10.
well, you have to take smome things into account:
chiefly, barbs have a high "risk" of deadly strike ( methinks), due to their masteries. we could be talking about the numbers doubled.
second, there was a maximum! behind the numbers.
then, how much life had your barb, when you dealt less then 1k physikal?
i got 1300, when one hit IMed did 850 to me. which is still lots, but not deadly.


this is propably due to my aura, which gives me about 10k dmg on top of avenge.
as soon as i have to keep pounding on single targets for a long time, my mana drains, too. but not nearly fast enough that i couldnt keep up with the pots i find.
the question is perhaps, how much mana has your char? mine has about 350,
which is, without any leech, enough for about 25-30 hits (considered small regenaration rates).

i have 2 questions:

1: what means the word "touting" (sry, no native english speaker)

2: what do you people think about the avenger/shockadin combination?
