Anytime I'm in a pack of monsters, I just mash sprint overpower and battle rage until I empty my fury.

Playing higher MP levels makes it much easier to have infinite WOTB. Depending on your dps of course.

Yeah, when I'm on a high MP I just spam Sprint as fast as I can to keep Wrath up.

As I read the posts all I can think is, "I'm sure this is exactly what Blizzard had in mind when they designed Thrive on Chaos..."

If they had the opportunity (or balls) to redesign it, I'm sure they would've had that Rune as something like "Wrath of the Barbarian lasts for 25 seconds instead of 15" and had equipment that could reduce the cooldown. Then we'd have WotB builds that would be able to keep WotB up for 25 of every 35 seconds or something and there would be more than a niche reason to use Insanity vs Thrive on Chaos.

Of course, if they did that, they would be able to change Striding Giant to be something comparable to Gloom like Life Steal & Damage Reduction to use as a panic survival skill.

Tip for fast-track to 3 comma club:

1) Join Hardcore
2) Farm Smart

Provided you don't die, whatever you looted worth a lot more (a 50k Zuni Mask at SC worth a few millions at HC).

At the current HC:SC exchange rate of 1:3 or 1:4, I would have 3 commas as well at softcore :P. But I want to hit it in HC! Will update this soon hopefully!

After 171 hours played on my WD, I have accumulated more than 1 billion worth of hardcore gold (close to 900m in gold, and 200m-300m in legs not yet sold. My initial investment in gearing up was around 200m gold, and this capital went down when my WD went down.

My gold balance didn't hit over 1 billion hence I never see the 3 commas. After my P(67) WD die to game freeze, I was in a hurry to get my replacement monk back to good farming speed. Attached a screenshot of my Hardcore AH tab after I bought some gears to try out perma-TR build for my monk.

@douvinsky I'm curious as to what a 150m HC Inna's Radiance looks like.

I think you're reading it wrong--it looks like the Skorn is 150m; the Inna's Radiance looks like it's only 50m...

@eastdragon42 Well if you're going to be a stickler for accuracy, I suppose that's true.

As you wish. If I were Arcane I would buy out this immediately.
