Frenzy will kill most monsters almost immediately, as with good enough increased attack speed it delivers over 4 attacks per second. Playing solo: At the beginning of each game use Demon Limb to cast Enchant on yourself which adds 218% extra attack rating.

Solo Baal and Chaos runs are doable in 4 minutes.

Party members will love you for the Shouts and your auras.

Depending on gear setup can be quite tanky.

You should use an Act2 Nightmare Offensive Mercenary to gain it’s Might Aura, which will further increase your damage. The build can even be used for farming Ubers, as it can have close to 100% crushing blow, and will also deal massive amounts of physical damage.

The only downside of the build is the lack of area damage, which makes it slightly slower than the best AEO builds for farming places like the Cow level, Chaos Sanctuary or Baal. Each swing will increase your running and attacking speed. Damage dealt by Frenzy is purely physical, so you will need to put a point on Berserk in order to deal with magic immune monsters.

This can be offset by wearing a Last Wish runeword as your weapon, which will proc Fade. In order to attack with Frenzy, you need to dual wield, which makes the character more vulnerable, compared to other barbarian builds. Expensive runewords are necessary in order to deal really high damage, but budget options are available that are also viable ladder starters.

The frenzy barb is one of the most efficient melee d2 builds.
