DualGluttony (Lucifer666) + Golden_Pig (bastige) †Character Intro and Overview †This was originally an experiment by forum user Lucifer666 in an effort to see just how much gold could be amassed using basically the obvious +% Extra Gold From Monsters runewords and equipment. For that reason, I am supplying you with both his setup and my setup, and they will be separated by character. If you were thinking of experimentation in this category... This barbarian specializes in double "Gluttony"-runeword weapons, along with other items to increase survivability. While not a power build, this can easily bring your characters a LOT of money. Stats and Attributes †Lucifer666 †All Strength. Bastige †75 Dex, rest Strength Skills †Lucifer666 †War Cry on LMB; Battle Command, Battle Orders, Shout and Double Swing on RMB for primary switch. Bastige †30 Double Swing, on left button 25 Frenzy, as synergy to Iron Skin and Double Swing 20 Berserk, as synergy to Double Swing 1-point Shout; 3-point Battle Orders; 6-point Battle Command 1-point passives except for Throwing Mastery; rest of the points were split between Close Combat and Bash. Equipment †Lucifer666 †From the Forums: Bastige †Weapons: "Gluttony" Hellfire Swords (regretting it) Play Style †Lucifer666 †Barbaric Devastator on weapon switch for a powerful Berserk attack. Main weapons are "Gluttony" Hellfire Swords. War Cry stuns monsters, making them easy targets. With the Band of Pestilence, monsters are also bleeding and CtC Creeping Doom helps keep most monsters stunned. Bastige †"Gluttony" Dire Flails, I chose them because of the faster speed, and same reach of the swords. While my style is a little more risky, since I don't use the War Cry or Pestilence ring, I do have the Suffocation of Indifference gloves for the slow, and Band of War to amp monsters. If I face difficult physical immunes, I'll start to use Berserk. Dead monsters are searched using Find Treasure. 8/13/12: Switched to Hellfire Swords. While the minimum damage went up, max durability and speed went down. Once I hit the Burst of Speed proc, though, everything is OK. Shared tactic †War Cries are casted in a regular basis: Battle Command, then Battle Orders, then Shout. The difference between the two of us: Lucifer666 has 18 points Battle Command (which give +4 all skills) while I have 6 (only +2). Merc and Merc Equipment †Lucifer666 †Act 2 "Might" mercenary which uses Concentration on equip weapon Dragon's Breath and Atlastrust with Lv.6 Annihilation-on-equip. Helm is Wanderer for Melle Mastery,Elemental Jewel for resists,Eye of Etlich for +2 All and Socket and the equipment is Merc converted for DR%.He also wears full Achilles Set which is generally the best melle merc support Set... Bastige †Act 3 Lightning mercenary, Iron Wolf N set (I didn't get around to giving him the H set yet), two Dragon Eye rings which give a total +28% extra lightning damage boost. The only aggrivating aspect is that I didn't pull the RIP mod from his armor yet... which can prevent dead bodies from being searched. Comments †We're on the Eastern Sun forums. I (bastige) can be reached there as thepsycho2, of course. Feel free to discuss my tactics here.
