Leap Earthquakes

The Leapquake Barbarian build guide will teach you all about the gear, skills, paragon, playstyle and seasonal mechanics you'll need to get this insanely fun Barbarian up and running.

Earthquakes will be your main source of damage, and Leap will be your main Earthquake generator.

Offense

• Earthquakes will be your main source of damage with this build.
• Aspect of Earthquakes will give you additional damage for your Whirlwind when you stand inside of an Earthquake and for 4 seconds after you leave that Earthquake. With Igni sometimes the Earthquake will not be underneath you, so you'll need to Whirlwind over the Earthquake to gain your buff.
• Aspect of Incendiary Fissures will convert your damage to Fire Damage and it will give it increased damage.
• Executioner's Aspect adds extra damage to your Earthquakes based on your Strength. You do not need to worry about hitting an Overpower hit.
• Vehement Brawler's Aspect will give you extra damage when you use Call of the Ancients. It also increases the ranks of Call of the Ancients will reduces the cooldown as well.

Rune Combinations

Creating Earthquakes

• Bac + Tec will be your end game choice. As you move, you cast Earthquakes.
• Neo + Tec if you deal damage, but don't take any damage every 2 seconds you will cast an Earthquake.
• Poc + Tec works very well as well for this set up.
• Yax + Tec you will need to drink a Healing Potion in order to proc an Earthquake.

Vulnerable

• Exploit Glyph will be your source of Vulnerable Damage early to mid-game.
• Fists of Fate with a Greater Affix (the star) on Lucky Hit: Up to a [X%] Chance To Make Enemies Vulnerable For 3 Seconds is a great option for Vulnerable damage.

Mythic Uniques

• The Grandfather has a Unique Aspect that doubles your Critical Strike Damage bonus. More importantly for this build it gives very high Maximum Resources. That will help scale your damage from Ramaladni's Magnum Opus. It's a great source of Max Life and the All Stats play a huge role in activating your Paragon Nodes.
• Ring of Starless Skies adds damage to all of your abilities after you spend primary resources.
• Heir of Perdition will be a great source of critical strike chance as well as a big source of multiplicative damage.
