Finally got past jailers in inferno Wortham with my barb. They were mowing me down in 2 seconds flat. Like I thought resistances don't do much in inferno. I went from 600 resists buffed down to 200 buffed and upped my armor from 8k buffed to 9500 buffed and damage to 15k with crits as high as 52k. My passives are Ruthless, Tough As Nails, and Nerves of Steel. I use Revenge with the 30% chance to proc, Whirlwind with the life steal when I crit, Ignore Pain with life steal, Call of Ancients to tank and deal with Adds, War Cry to boost armor and resists, and Cleave to hit multiple enemies. So far I've been cruising along and dying occasionally when dealing with 3 elites at a time, but as long as I have enough room to Whirlwind out of bad situations and steal life I can get it done.

Resistances only trully work on a Barb if they have high Armor, as it's natural DR and armor DR procs first before Resistances. 

How much HP do you have on your Barb? 

Was at 32k now I'm at 28k. Whirlwind with the life steal on crits works almost as good as Revenge. If I don't get a proc on my Revenge and get low on life I'll Whirlwind out gaining life in the process.

That seems to be a bit low. Most of the Barbs I've seen on Inf have over 45K HP.
