The length of time it took you to see that rainbow facet gave me anxiety
Haha! I'm glad you mentioned this. Noticed that when I was editing and thought... "Am I friggin' blind?"
@@Coooley You thinking the remaster is likely? As a WC3 player, that also gives me anxiety.
@@MeatforceSD Haha! Gah... I hope so. There will be a lot of D2 players anxiously awaiting it, that's for sure.
@@Coooley you took so long to pick it up that I was doubting it's a rainbow and that maybe you know it's just a trash drop.
instablaster
idk if this is a compliment or not lmao, but I wish u were as popular as llama cause the info and vids u put out are great bro
its good to see solid diablo 2 content that isnt a speedrun! keep it up man. whenever remastered comes out your channel will blow up ;)
Wow thanks for this video, i never done a barb before but this looks like alot of fun. 👍
This is a good example of why i love diablo. They are so many possibilities. I am a treasure hunter. I have dedicated my time on diablo on finding the most godly items possible. Recently found a 2 sorc skill 2 os 20 fcr all res STR life and dex!!!! I love this game
Belt?
@@askmedov Can't have OS on a belt... likely a circlet with those rolls.
You the man cooley.
I use a Frenzy build using Eth BotD Colossus and Last Wish Phase then use Dual Lem'd Ali-Baba on switch. It's kind of nice because I can Hell Trav/Pindle/Shenk/Eld and not really have to worry about getting r/d.
That belt is sick though, never thought about looking for something like that before.
Love the vid man ur super cool!
I use spellsteel on switch instead of bo sticks you get the teleport and decrepify so my merc can use botd just a little annoying repairing but the faster runs make up for it. Also a good gold find caster ammy helps get an extra breakpoint. I personally use tgods because the only thing that gives me problems is lightning enchants
What a belt, thats crazy :)
mad gold amounts indeed
So I just "finished" my Gold Find Barb and I went a little different route that you did. I was finding that the Reaper + Wealth setup on the Merc was actually causing some issues with killing (and also, the merc is kind of dumb as it tends to focus Ismail Vilehand when he's Stone Skin). I decided to go with an Eth Gladiator's Bane to protect the Merc even further from Hydra Damage, which seems to be very helpful. Also went from Reaper's Toll to eBOTD Great Poleaxe that I got at a great discount. The biggest change is that I started using Gavel of Pain to really speed up the process and that has been the most effective weapon swap for me.
I'll be making some YT Content but for sure will give you a shoutout, Cooley!
/e Forgot to add, 2346% Gold Find on the body, but atm just +82% from the Merc (I will find a better Eth CoT and Lem it when the time comes)
Sounds amazing! Ismail is a beotch. I've considered swapping to ebotd War Pike and just skipping him. A teleport amulet really helps the merc focus, too. That and trying to leap-away Mr. Vilehand.
cool build, and fantastic breakdown! - sub #19
Thanks for the sub! Glad you liked the breakdown. Planning on doing an Amazon PvP breakdown soon. Hope to see you there!
I always craft safety boots for my goldfind barbarian.
Fire Resist + (5-10)%
Magic Damage Reduced By (1-2)
Damage Reduced By (1-4)
all of the base craft mods for safety boots are useful so all you need is a 70+ goldfind roll and some frw which is a lot easier than some other crafts (looking at you, caster amulets)
you also have the possibility of rolling gg magic find boots with stacked fire res. great for sorcs with spirit.
love it :D make some more vids of other stuff. u got potential bud good luck (diablo 2 is my fav game :D old but gold :D)
Thanks, man! Glad you enjoyed. Very well-designed game, honestly. Doing a PvP Zon comparison tonight on Twitch. Will upload the abridged version here when it's done. Lmk whatcha think!
@Coooley i've been looking for a good GF barb vid glad i found this 1. Why is warcry better than maxing leap? Just for kill speed of the run?
Nowadays I just play a little 1.07 in SP, but I played 1.09 on the bnet a lot and probably somewhere between 5-7 seasons at various times between 1.10 and 1.13 (with a lot of breaks in between like many).
Had a gold find Barb pretty much every season that I played.
Like your build, love the rares and the Circlet is pretty awesome too.
Personally I prefer a WW Barb though (Dual Grief or Oath if on a budget), first of all I prefer the more active play style over waiting for the mercenary to kill stuff and it's also faster. Of course you end up with less gold find, but with the higher kill speed the amount of gold/time should be very similar (I admit this is more of a hunch than me having actually measured it). Plus more kills means you get more charms/jeweis/gems/(h)runes, so even a slightly lower amount of gold/time is more than worth it to me.
I don't remember whether HF aura results in corpses shattering, but I believe it does occasionally. So does the cold damage from Ravenfrost on a WW Barb of course, so no disadvantage there (WW could put a Cham in the helmet). If I were to do something like your build I think I'd take a mercenary with Might over HF and then just use War Cry more if the lack of HF results in mercenary survivability problems.
Last but not least I would definitely use the cube and put if on the left side of the inventory (even if you don't use a cube it's more efficient having your empty inventory slots on the left side instead of the right side). You can put the torch over/under the cube and them also maybe a tome.
Some very good points. I had actually just converted this barb into a GF barb and forgot to buy a Hell (or normal) Act2 Offensive merc with Might. That's 100% the correct thing to do!
People have also experimented with GF Cold Sorcs for the exact reasons you mentioned. It's unfortunate that there's not really any other efficient places where gold drops so prolifically as it does in Travincal. So some people do make hybrid MF/GF builds in order to get more in-game time.
Thanks for the feedback, man!
@@Coooley Gold Sorc can work, from an efficiency point of view nothing beats find item in my mind though, it's just too strong. While it's fun to build the most efficient character possible for what you want to accomplish I can see why some people choose the Cold Sorc.
And yes you can play with the GF vs MF vs killspeed balance, I've done the WW Trav build with a little more MF focus as well on occasion.
hello very nice guide i have some questions is cold dagame on reaper toll bad for making the corpses shatter? what other weapon can we use to prevent it
With auto-gold-looting in D2R, I wanna finally try my hand at a Gold Find Barb.. 😅
Consider having the free inventory space on the left
A very good observation. Saves a lot of cursor scrolling.
Ye makes droppin a bit faster
This would be a nice convenience for gambling as well as pooling gold to alt characters. Useful for ladder but for sp i wouldnt think it would be viable since gold and drops can’t xfer.
nice video, lol i like how you say the word "circlet".
Do you have a video where you use the teley amulet?
Hey, Im struggling hell travi runs, my merc dies very fast, Im using CoT, treachery, eth ca obedience on merc, he have 75/75/65/65 resist on hell and dmg is around 3.5k. What should i do
nice guy :)
i slay 'em by myself ^^
i have a question though: did you try shout?
on a high char-lvl/monster-lvl penalty+defense, the council members shoudnt get much hits on you - as they should lack the proper attack rating to do so?
I prebuff bc/bo/shout! Did I miss it in a run? Smh haha
@@Coooley i just meant going for max def instead of life ^^
@@wh00tevr80 Ahhh I see whatcha mean. Yeah! Something to consider!
Wich Merc do you recommend and where to invest the Rest Skill Points ? (lvl 91)
Hell Act 2 merc, offensive. I went into Warcry synergies, but there's a lotta room for customization.
Breath of the dying war pike kills way faster for immune you can have weapon on switch for AMP or Decrepify procs if needed for the last bady standing.
Did you not see the jewel until you picked it up? I kept wondering why you just ignored it
11:45 You didn't show what the Facet rolled!!?!?!
RabbleRabbleRabble!!!😡
Great video though, liked and subbed.
Typed this comment before I got to the end 😅
@@Preacher_. haha! I should have ID'd it sooner, that's for sure. I was just pumped that we literally were just talking about facets dropping and boom... One of 'em pops up in the first couple of runs. Thanks for the support, man!
Cool Build. Are Infernos Boots not the better option? They got 70 gold find and 30 fire resi and 10 max resi.
Infernos are a fine option. The max fire res isn't a huge deal whereas we have absorb from Dwarfs.
Makes me miss my gf barb. Had more fun doin gf runs than prob anything else in d2.. the leap seatup was my fave cuz you could just perma stun everyone, the only downside was spreading the council out
yeah also with less gear the leap is what makes it possible.
I was always like who the fuck needs a goldfinder in d2, until me and a mate started crafting jewelry the other day
Hey great vid. Can you elaborate on why you use eth weapons?
Strictly for strength-bugging (making your char look "naked" when viewed by other people)
EastDuels thank you for answering. Looking forward to see more
I love Goldfind barbarians but i prefer Goldfind+Zerk Hybrid (This build also very good for running on Pindleskin/Shenk/Overseer i'm used only 1 lemmed crystal sword and Grief in another hand). Also about items i don't like Reaper's Toll because he have cold damage this not good for goldfinder. I'm used rare amulet with 2 warcries, tele charges, gold, res++.
For me this build is very good alternative for guys who tired from sorceress.
what is a good option to use instead of reapers toll?
@@manuelcornelio4348 tomb reaver is nice. A good combo is guardian angel armor, tomb reaver weapon and steel shade helmet.
2 crescent moon sword on second slot with frenzy to kill them faster with merc? does that work ?
you need your active weapons to be the extra gold find on kill for the bonus to apply.
I see D2 content, I sub. Sub #18
Much appreciated, man! Plenty more to come. This is my favorite game of all time, by far.
el yea
Hello, I think you forgot to show your armor? :) May you tell me what armor you are using? Thank you
Wealth armor!
@@Coooley thank you
That's a ridiculous amount of extra gold.
damn i always the the socket quest only gave 1 socket. hahaaa been doing things wrong
I thought this for years lol. Don't worry
dat belt tho.
Ain't she a beauty? :P
Reaper's does cold damage and can shatter bodies can't it?
It can, but it doesn't happen very often if you're using the right merc (Hell Offensive). In my video, I had recently rebuilt that barb from a dueler to a GF barb and still had the Holy Freeze aura on him. But without that, the decrepify aura proc outweighs the small chance of shattering the monster, imo
@@Coooley sorry I don't mean to necro an old thread, but I'm wondering if Nightmare Offensive (ie. Might) would be better than Hell Offensive (ie. Blessed Aim)? or does the merc really benefit greatly from extra attack rating?
@@vince4929 Might is the way to go! That's what my current version uses
@@Coooley Thanks!!!
Def gonna change my barb into a gf barb now lol my sorc does ok with gf but i need a lot for gambling
What armor were you using?
Wealth Mage Plate, Good Sir
@@Coooley aight thx
Why eth??
Dude, 3os eth reapers toll is by far the best in slot Merc wep
It's actually not for this build. It's not even second best for a GF barb.
Спасибо брат!!! А можно Mf barb low items
U item find’d the jewel btw :p
With as much as it costs to gamble certain items, and how fast you can acquire gold (what is it, 4-5 runs to max inv and stash? lol), I wish they had increased how much you can store. I would vastly prefer to save up a hundred mil and then gamble for like an hour or 2, rather than having to switch between the two every handful of runs.
Also, curious if you have ever managed to gamble a unique anything -- I play SP with plugy on 1.13d, and I am becoming convinced it is literally not possible. Theoretically, you should expect to come across one in around the same time as you would find 2 set items, iirc. However, since starting playing again a few months back, I have gambled 15 different set items so far, and have not yet seen a single unique. I wish I had some way of reporting the actual stats of how many items and the breakdowns, etc, mostly boots, gloves, circs, rings, ammys, and occasionally helms and armors with sets I am looking for, but definitely many, many thousands of items, and as I said, 15 separate set finds, a handful of GG rares, but not a single unique lol. Definitely curious to know how others are fairing in that regard!
I just gambled highlords amulet yesterday...and a nailring the other day. Not the best items but unique. I gamble set items every day though.
@@fw2141 yeah to update my original comment since then I have managed to gamble I think 4 or 5 uniques in total. Very rare indeed, but I had just been on a super dry spell, apparently, before making that comment. It's definitely possible.
@@coreysayre1376 I think the most important thing is to keep in mind: as a gambler in D2LoD, we‘re looking for very nice rare things and not unique ones. Rare items drop a lot more. gl gambling. keep on!
just got all my gear for a gf barb in D2 R., getting him Grushed today. i will be a gambling fool
there is just no way that enigma is not the right choice here, the teleport and move speed it gives will make your runs twice as fast while only lowering your gold find by a minuscule amount
Also it gives you mana on damage taken since i saw you struggling with mana so much
Why are there so many council members in these runs? I have more like 5 in mine, but haven't done it in hell yet.
Could be the difficulty, yuht. Try approaching them from the angle you see in this video. It has the greatest chance to spawn them all in the ideal spot.
Why do you need that much gold?
for gambling. amulets, rings and circlets
In 18y of playing D2, i never build a gold find baba. But dmn, this looks really fun. Shame on me.
Very fun! And really useful for gambling or replenishing gold for dueling/repairs. IMO, a must-have in any character line-up. Glad you liked it!
900k gold in one run is slightly above average? Are you kidding? 🤣🤣🤣
didnt know gold farming is a thing ^^
Hell yeah, man. There's a variety of different builds for it. Handy for gambling and/or replenishing gold for repairs/dueling.
great build but one thing... if you're not speedrunning a character, why you could thing about farming gold? in d2 it's useless. maybe i'm missing sth, but one run on hell, lets say 30minutes is all you need.
Gambling and keeping your sorc repaired
Blizzard sorc is just 10% less efficient but 2 times cheaper than this barb
Yes, Sorcs can't hold as much GF (about 10% less), but they also can't hork corpses, which adds about another -33% efficiency. Their speed is actually a liability on battle.net, because you'll get realm downs by flying through games too quickly. Not sure if it's really any cheaper to build, though. Requires many of the same items.
@@Coooley Average efficiency of my blizzard sorceress was 366k gold per minute, while for warcry barb it was about 409k gold per minute. Please check my videos for more details
why do people even gold find in D2?
Mainly for Gambling
