100k for Torpor not that hard to get to be honest. If you think you can dedicate a few hours at a time to camp 5-8k items. I know it sounds alot but depending what you camp it can take at most 20 drops of the 5k rare item or 12.5 drops of an 8k item. Sounds alot but if you pepper in FS loots and coinage from selling crap you get trying to get the 5k+ items it will drop these numbers alot.
Example. King camp in Guk. Drops 2k Crown non stop. 750/1k Sword uncommonly and then the tact drops the 8k Circlet. Can easily make 13k (2 crowns + sword and circlet) in one camp assuming you stay til Circlet drops. If no circlet you can make 2k every-time you camp it as you are almost guaranteed 1 king every 90 minutes (Have had 3 in a row then 1 ph and another before).
P.S. And to answer original post, Go Barb if you want but avoid Iksar. Even in Velious JBB is awesome. Also a-lot more gear choices for Ogre or Barb. If you do go Barb you get Seb scale gear, jarsath gear, plate gear, jbb, Imbued Granite Spaulders (very underrated resist item)+ many more. Also faster leveling. I prefer Ogre for FSI but I played Barb on live and survived Kunark/Velious just fine. If you aren't going for Torpor you wont be fighting the stuff IFS is best against.
P.S.S. I skipped ahead and see Aamok mentioned alot of the gear I was talking about with Barb. IGS so nice.
