Upheaval is one of the most underrated, accessible, and powerful early-season builds for the Barbarian. with just a couple of uniques, you can easily hit into the HUNDREDS of millions one shotting damn near anything in the game.

What makes it so great is that it's natively powerful, your gear really does not need to be the best to get a lot out of it.
It's a nice and simple weapon swap Overpower build that has you alternating between Lunging Strike & Upheaval for next to limitless fury, tons of overpowers and great damage and offense!

Supporting Skills

Iron Skin, this skill is our main Defensive. We gain a powerful damage reduction buff as well as Unstoppable which will break us out of and make us immune to **Crowd Control.

Defenses & Utility

• Armor cap is variable depending on your level, however, a general rule of thumb is that you'll want your physical damage reduction to at least reach 85% in the tooltip (hover over armor in stat sheet) Endgame cap is 9000 armor this is the maximum you'll require.
• Resistances cap at 70% and you'll want to aim to have them all capped, bare in mind that as you move up in world tier you'll receive a handicap to these resistances, so be sure to check the regularly.
• For utility stats, you want to stack as much Cooldown reduction as possible the cap is 75% but it's very unlikely we'll get close to it.
• Movement speed caps at 200%, remember to take into account dynamic sources of movement speed like Berserking or Rallying cry so that you don't over cap.
