I read the barrage build in this forum but it's not recent...
So im just asking what is the best Barrage build for now with the AI update, NF campaign .

There isn't really an entire barrage build. A good new skill to use is Flail (warrior). I think a few Paragon skills go alright with barrage. Other than that, barrage is still somewhat dull.

The best skill combos for Barrage I have found are:

R/E:
Barrage
Conjure Flame
Mark of Rogdort
Glyph of Lesser Energy

This build gives extra damage with AoE burning, but is dependant on a fiery string and therefore doesn't work with an Orders Necro. There is also a strong enchantment reliance with this build

R/W
Barrage
Flail
Favorable Winds

Flail is arguably the best IAS skill for a barrage ranger. Fav Winds allows for a vamp flatbow or hornbow to be used to maximize damage output. While a Hornbow has been proven to deal the most dps with an IAS, I have found that it can be a bit harder to take advantage of the IAS from Flail when there aren't many enemies with the hornbow since the hornbow gains adrenaline slower.

R/Mo
Barrage
Judges Insight
Rebirth
Favorable Winds

This is an energy heavy waste of time in most cases, but really shines in places like FoW where undead type enemies will take double damage.
