Whirlwind MF (Classic)

350% Magic Find Barb WW equipment without character (account), which we sell separately.
This gear guide is for Diablo 2 Classic. You can convert your character to Lord of Destruction (LoD) but there are better unique items and runewords available in the expansion.
We recommend bringing alt Enchantress Sorc (using second D2) to get around 2000 fire damage on each attack and 300% Attack Rating.

This build allows you to deal AOE damage - hit multiple monsters at the same time. WW Barb is the strongest melee build in Classic and can solo farm Chaos Sanctuary on Hell.
You may request different items, as long as they are priced similarly.
