I'm officially in love with my current Barb build .

Got to Act II Inferno and what do you know? I can tank . And quite nicely I must say. The mosquitoes attacks only deal 3K (in comparison to 18K a piece on my DH ) and even on mobs I can just sit and soak damage with Revenge.

I'm still relatively low on HP, for a barb (36K), but my damage mitigation is through the roof. Got 9K armor (lost about 1K when I switched the War Cry rune for extra resists) and an average of 675 all resists, which gives me an total damage mitigation of 94% .

Also, my current DPS still holds up to mobs HP due to my very fast attack speed, so I think I might be able to get Act II done with my Barb and use it as a farm tool in Act III for gear to give to the rest of my chars .

Edit - Managed to bring my HP up to 51K while only lowering my DPS by 1K, which is a good tradeoff. I'm still veering for the 60K mark (with my current set up, that'll make me virtually invincible to anything but the most abusive elite mob modifiers)
