i've seen some guides and in all of them they were talking that melees are waaaaaaayyyy too bad to do inferno... the only was is to forget about doing a lot of dmg and go on res only and defensive play... but i don't care about guides and i stick to my play with my barb XD so i suggest to use a hybrid build with 2x1 hand weapons or 1x2 had weapon... forget about the shield imo smile

leave those to casters xD

max dex possible
max all res possible
max 1 single res (always the same on every stuff, you have a monk skill that improve your res stack
regarding to the best one)
str and armor would be needed also.
till inferno you can go for 2 hands / 2 x 1 hands weapon. In inferno, find a good 1h + shield with maximum dmg block + str res vita dex sox ...
