and thats all it is. for everyone else its a minor buff, but to him and his specialized mvspeed build, its a huge thing. i honestly don't think it would work nearly as well if he wasn't so fast.
I personally think the buff was to give power to 2 handers and keep barbs from running lighter weapon sets. I would argue that it also helps keep Barbs slower, but as you demonstrated, you're often faster or as fast with your weapon out. GGs Pete~
the buff was needed for fighter since nobody used 2handed, but I dont think ironmace really thought it through for barbs, even tho it pairs insanely well with your schmovement : )
Its a big buff to two handers across the board but I dont think its a bad thing. Makes footwork more important than a damage check in fights. As for whether the buff is making killing easier or whether it's just you, my bet is a mix of both.
I feel like barbs have always been decent to strong, the problem is most barb players just w+m1 I don't think I've seen more than a handful actually abuse the range of the zweihander
@@battlesreign kimchi is literally the best player in the game, he was #1 in the early kill leaderboards for I think 3 wipes in a row, he has two in-lobby weapons named after his barb and wizard accounts, and ends every wipe with a crazy high KDA while only playing highroller trios. he's also usually one of the first streamers to farm uniques, and I've watched his trios stack be undefeated for 50+ raids while averaging 2 group kills a match. kimchi barely streams anymore though, sadly. no hate to Pete, he's a one of the best solo barbs ingame rn, but trios highroller PvP is infinitely harder than solos, that's just objective fact. And on top of that, kimchi usually 1v3s in highroller (after being full buffed tbf) but he can be 2-3 hit at any moment even with the buffs. www.twitch.tv/kimchimage1111 www.youtube.com/@walprugiskid
Hey skinny do you think the double axe hit box is screwed up since last patch? Its the only weapon i have issues doing damage with even with the +5 perk
Ive seen fully clothed/armored barbs use viking sword shield over two handers becuase of how fast all the other classes move with this change hopefully more zweis less viks (also i havent played yet but u might wanna look into quarterstaff it was my fav since u had near one handed movement speed while swinging with no sour spot but now it could be back up to top tier)
Hi, i dont understund the buff, when i see the stats of the 2 hands weapons i see same moove speed stat after and before the patch, i'm true ? thanks for your videos !
Hey Pete i know this is vague but did you use the clip of you killing me I was playing my warlock "fryloc" and I third partied you fighting a cleric at the top of goblin town and you ended up killing me with a weird at the bottom, you also jumped on top of the breakable barricade that separates the two rooms at the top of town while the cleric ran and shut the door, just curious it would be cool to see the clip on your channel
Loved this episode. "Sorry" I see a lot of streamers dumpstering casual players on youtube and it bums me out. If you play the game for a living and you are toxic to randoms you aren't cool imho.
@Skinny_Pete_ Now I can actually hit someone will felling axe before the just straight up walk away. I've been so frustrated when you start a swing, and they just straight up walk out of range
Hey Pete I genuinely feel like you have some of the best movement in dark and darker and no one that I know of has made a good video on dodging, spacing, ect. You should think about making a video for new players and veterans alike. As players play and game a lot they start to push the skill ceiling a little higher than what was thought before and I think you are doing just that.
Buff is absolutely overtuned, move speed is king in solos, but most people wont be able to take advantage of it this well If the buff stays, im multiclassing with barb instead of fighter
I believe its both. Barbs being way too powerfull and you knowing what you are doing so that's why in your case its very op. I don't play barb and even with the buffs i wouldn't be able to kill 81 and just die twice
Bad balance patch lol poor rogue supposed to be balanced towards being the most agile class gets ran down by a barbarian swinging a war maul faster then he could run away
to be fair i have to invest everything into agility to achieve this to be possible. while rogues invest in heavy armor and move slightly faster than me still
@@Skinny_Pete_the fact that you CAN, is kinda lame. rogue class identity is kinda zooming past everything. its just weird when you're running faster with gear on Vs someone naked.
@Skinny_Pete_ that’s true you even don’t wear helms n chest for extra Ms wizards gotta do the same thing to be positive Ms unless you wanna spend extra on Ms gear and loose hp dmg or knowledge or for you that’d be dex
barb is not meta. warlock is currently the broken one(hence all big streamers playing it). pete is just unusually good at this class, and the slightest buffs he gets, feel big. this buff is nothing for an average barb. you see you need to be spacing alot when you're utilizing this buff, most barbs hold w and swing away while pete swings with timing and rhythm.. most barbs have zero footwork, they either stand still or hold w, theres no back and forth. Pete is just suffering from success, the buff is especially good for his playstyle. no other barb will complain about it because they can't even see it. you need to play like Pete to even understand how it works.
breaking news!
"local maniac lizard caves travelers skulls into a pancake, says sorry right after"
I mean I would deny this if I wasn't true but since it is I got nothing
i love how the "gg you fought with honor" has been replaced by a simple "I'm sorry" XD
yea they really buffed what i do so felt bad a certain point.
The devs are trying to appease Pete so that he doesn’t wipe out their headquarters in a single swing of his zweihander
Naw the devs are good people and respect them. Though I am confused why exactly they buffed the exact thing I excel in
Emaciated Peterson, what are you sorry about? Stand proud, you are strong.
IDK I was already stacking hundreds of bodies a week and devs just made me more overpowered so kinda started feeling bad for them
every kill with the 2nd swing of the zwei right click is just organismic
Well it does have some good uses against shield and to catch people off guard with it
Direct buff to Skinny Pete XD
That is definitely what it feels like to me
and thats all it is. for everyone else its a minor buff, but to him and his specialized mvspeed build, its a huge thing. i honestly don't think it would work nearly as well if he wasn't so fast.

that double axe kill on the barb was so clean.
Yea I really having a love for double axe its just good
Love the use of alternate attacks from the zwei. Way more stylish
It's also good because if used correctly counters shields hard and most people don't expect it
the buff was needed for fighter since nobody used 2handed, but I dont think ironmace really thought it through for barbs, even tho it pairs insanely well with your schmovement : )
Yea still trying to figure out if it's just good for me specifically or just it's really strong for barbs now
war maul cleric kinda nutty now
well we needed something to promote melee fights and abolish the throwing meta, i think this is exactly that.
the amount of ''I'm sorry'' in this video is so canadian
I was already a menace in the caves with warmaul, now i havent died once since patch. Thank you ironmace
i thought of you when i read that lol
Yea I couldn't have had a more effective buff than that
Epic content would love to see gear as well!!
'' im sorry '' is the new ''its just business mate'' hahaha
100% just you being GOATED w your class
what class gives you the most trouble in high level play?
Prob really skilled rangers but mostly all classes I don't have real troubles with
Its a big buff to two handers across the board but I dont think its a bad thing. Makes footwork more important than a damage check in fights. As for whether the buff is making killing easier or whether it's just you, my bet is a mix of both.

Yea I do main barbarian but lucky for me I have some extreme game awareness
By far the best barb
I could be but not exactly sure. The leaderboard tracked wealth gain. Not kill and pvp experience
@@Skinny_Pete_ I mean in all my time of playing DaD I’ve never seen another barb even near your level of moment and handling. Crazy props dude
@@battlesreign kimchibarb and jooyae are by far better, but Skinny Pete is just a loveable lizard

Im confused so does the winging get fatster whe. You hit them first or you have to have the perk equippee
Read patch notes.
bro achilles strike has never been more broken with this new change🤣
Actually perfectly fine since most barbs used savage roar and rage anyways
Man, seeing all that makes me not look forward to multi-classing... Also, by any chance, do you know if the buff affected Magic Staff as well?
Not sure they specifically stated 2 handers and staff are held with 1 so not sure
@@Skinny_Pete_ Yeah that's what confuses me as well, they have 2-handed written on them, so I would hope so
Hey skinny do you think the double axe hit box is screwed up since last patch? Its the only weapon i have issues doing damage with even with the +5 perk
W buff thanks Iron Mace my movement tech is ass and I would constantly swing my weapon before jumping.
Well one thing for sure they made my job easier I guess
Maybe after jumping
Ive seen fully clothed/armored barbs use viking sword shield over two handers becuase of how fast all the other classes move with this change hopefully more zweis less viks (also i havent played yet but u might wanna look into quarterstaff it was my fav since u had near one handed movement speed while swinging with no sour spot but now it could be back up to top tier)
yea there were a lot of 1 hander usage with falcion and friends so i guess iron mace wants to see 2 handers more often
you killed me today. i was wondering why someone was telling me "im sorry" as i got two tapped
I just started feeling really bad after killing so many people like I was playing Mario Cart with human lives
very impressive pvp movement !
How did you changed your FOV?
I use ultra wide Monitor so that is why the fov look higher for normal 16:9 aspect ratio
Hi, i dont understund the buff, when i see the stats of the 2 hands weapons i see same moove speed stat after and before the patch, i'm true ? thanks for your videos !
I so sawry 😢 gets me everytime 😂
I really just felt bad for my opponents at a certain point
Also Pete what’s thy best Barb weapon in the game
Definitely war maul because of this buff for sure
@@Skinny_Pete_ thx man
I'd love to see your build if that would be possible sometimes?
Great content, I'd love to see the key binds on your Azeron if possible
I'll probably post a photo of some point in my videos
Great video. Hey was is this setup you have ? Are you drawing on people with a warmaul while holding hands with your metaphysic keyboard ? O.O
It's a Azeron keypad cyborg and huion drawing tablet and the pen is used for m1 and moving the mouse with the pen on the pad
That's cool :)@@Skinny_Pete_
First one here is a rotten egg.
you sure got here quickly
The only barb out there now
Fov makes it look like you're zooming through dungeon.
it's because I do be moving around the caves at top speed to find the rogue's
Are they using cheats to increase fov in game?
Do you perhaps have somekind of build for barb?
Hey Pete i know this is vague but did you use the clip of you killing me I was playing my warlock "fryloc" and I third partied you fighting a cleric at the top of goblin town and you ended up killing me with a weird at the bottom, you also jumped on top of the breakable barricade that separates the two rooms at the top of town while the cleric ran and shut the door, just curious it would be cool to see the clip on your channel
"i'm sorry" knowing full well he intends to abuse how op the class and weps are.
To be fair 80% of the game is fighters/warlock and clerics ATM so wouldn't say my class is over powered since nobody playing him a lot
Loved this episode. "Sorry" I see a lot of streamers dumpstering casual players on youtube and it bums me out. If you play the game for a living and you are toxic to randoms you aren't cool imho.
Yea after this buff I became more stacked and since no rank system right now I can't focus on high Elo lobbies sadly
holy shit you are a god
This is exactly how i feel as well. I feel like I have killed the player base of goblin caves im sitting at 200 kills 37 deaths
Yea since the update I've gotten 457 kills and everything stream I'm at least at minimum getting 70
@@Skinny_Pete_ jesus christ … have mercy on their souls
SAD :(
Skyny pete, 2 Handers with chest piece build outpacing and outmanouvering everyone.
WAS IT WORTH IRONMACE ??
I've kinda always been doing that. This buff just makes it easier than normal
@@Skinny_Pete_ not seeing your lizard scales is weird
skinny pete on top
Why did iron mace make me stronger
It’s a good buff for people that don’t utilize the axel like you do but for you it’s too strong
I guess but for me does feel like a over powered buff but could not be that way for most
8:56 respect 🫡
Just in time!
Yep hopefully you enjoy the video
Thank you, Peter. Your highlight reel of an existence is an inspiration @@Skinny_Pete_
Bro!!!! Thats going to get nerfed
We will see im unsure if it's me or if it's actually super broken
@Skinny_Pete_ Now I can actually hit someone will felling axe before the just straight up walk away. I've been so frustrated when you start a swing, and they just straight up walk out of range
That Slayer around 2min mark looks like TheLorr bro....
Probably was not him since pretty sure he was running pdr that day
they all look the same
Ah so i see that they still havent fixed torch or lantern achilles heel
I guess it's just intentional to stop running players
so you'd prefer he used a throwing axe?
wow barb so skillful
Achilles with blood exchange is kinda busted ngl
Yep it's my hands down favorite combo and would not want any other abilities
yet every other barb runs savage roar and rage
1:50 bro is asking for a 1v1 in melee while playing the most broken melee class.
Hey Pete I genuinely feel like you have some of the best movement in dark and darker and no one that I know of has made a good video on dodging, spacing, ect.
You should think about making a video for new players and veterans alike.
As players play and game a lot they start to push the skill ceiling a little higher than what was thought before and I think you are doing just that.
so they buffed w+m1!? woop woop! hate how pc is in the shop for repairs right now! D:
well i mean 80% of people use falcion so i guess iron mace wants to see more 2 hander usage
@@Skinny_Pete_ agreed, 2 handers are my go to on the game since i started playing. not very good, die alot but I keep on chuggin.
bro uses a pencil as a mouse
Why’re we apologizing to everyone we kill? 😂
I felt bad since iron maced buffed my play style so hard
now im gonna have to spend 300 gold on an epic two hander. nah they be cheap still.
I sadly made war mauls go from 100g to 300g because I kill to many people with it
@@Skinny_Pete_ noooo!
Barb worst class triple ranger supremacy (must all have multiple traps)
I like to see you try I can just jump when you jump to avoid all your traps
Buff is absolutely overtuned, move speed is king in solos, but most people wont be able to take advantage of it this well
If the buff stays, im multiclassing with barb instead of fighter
We will see if the meta changes since this 2 hander buff
What was their purpose for doing this when it wasn't difficult to land in the first place? lol
he was in fact, not sorry.
holy turbo nerd
It doesnt seem to be fair like that , no.
We will see moving fast with 2 handers is what I've always done so probably making it look a lot better than what it is for most players
Day 5 of u hiding from me
I keep looking for you but can never find you so if anything your hiding from me
Typically slayer fighter / light sword and shield fighter. Black skeleton skin. US East is my playground.
yo is he in tights lmfao
pete how do i be good like you
I got no idea

Nah that's totally fair but we better nerf rogue again.
just realised what hes using for controls bruh
Anyone who says barb isn't op is delusional or lying
Barb is strong sure but fighters lit got 75% pdr in blues so i think its fair we get something
why u say sorry bro, we all know more than half of players u killed would tbag you till spec minute ends
Probably but i still desire to have honor in a fight but this buff drastically increased my lethal capabilities
you’re a good player and all but jesus christ when you say gg or i’m sorry it makes me want to end it in game
its not the buff, you already killed so many barbs too. your movements are the diffrence
