If you can, glitch yourself, I think invisible spears are so awesome.

Blinking in and out is cool, and so is a barb wielding two HUGE throwing spears as long as him. Running out into the Canyon of the Magi with those things is the coolest scene ever.

mmmm all this talk wants me to make a throw barb.

but whyyy is lvl 20 the ideal lvl for a throw barb :-/. i dont get it. just for sanders?

I think level 20 is the optimal level for the following reasons:

1) Sander's Boots
2) 2 more points into throw mastery
3) Toxic Grand Charms of Anthrax (or something like that)
4) The remarkable tendency of awesome war javelins to have a required level of 19. I don't know why this always seems to be the case, but I've found some disgusting level 19 war javelins that have 20-30 damage more than the javelins I use on my level 18 thrower.

To me, it seems like since I made my throwbarb, Osan-gar, I have seen a lot of people talk about and make throwbarbs. Am I wrong?

Shademehr, I've looked at your pubby throwbarb, but imo, 880 dt dmg is almost impossible, unless you mean that he's hellrushed by saying pubby. And if he's not hellrushed, I'd like to see his gear, because I don't believe it.

I don't like the str glitch. MAYBE it's ok for pubbys, but for priv duels, its annoying to not be able to tell if your opponent is attacking you or not.

Lvl 20 throwbarb is the best because of a) Sanders boots for frw and b) lvl 19 war javs. An 18 throwbarb would be decent, but my lvl 19 rare war javs are much better than any lvl 18 javs I've seen. Both of my war javs have 75 and 78 max throw dmg listed on them; neither are eth. I also disagree that 60max dmg on a jav is enough. Even with my javs, most melee pallys kill me quick. Esp with 75% block, every hit counts.

Whether or not you use dt or jav/shield depends on who you're dueling. If its vs melee, I'd say go with jav/shield, but it depends on how much frw they have, and how good their shield block is. For casters, I usally go with 2x javs.

My first LLD throw barb was way back in 1.09 before I quit. I thought it was an original build at the time, but I ran into one other dude on East who had a solidly-built level 18 thrower and taught me to use a shield on the switch.

AQUA: we'lll i recall my lvl 14 beating u in 1v1 and i think 800+ dt dmg is very possible bcuz i already have 500+ dmg on my lvl 14. but i use like about 100 poison dmg so like 400 physical. 800 is very possible.

Jaku: Yes, you did beat me, but we only dueled once (so that really doesn't say much) and I didn't even realize you were a throwbarb, or that you were even attacking me untill I was already taking dmg.

Im aware that mana will run out quickly with pure dt, and I ALWAYS have dt on one switch, and jav/shield on the other.
