to be more clear i would put edgemasters on your 2h sword and put dire ww on your 2h mace because then you get the 2h bonus on the crit chance. dump ramaladni's, it's not worth it.

dust devil on the hammer is garbage, you want something that adds a lot of damage there. that's one big problem. i also think ramaladnis benefit is not as good as the drawback of losing fury. i can't see doing enough damage not taking the double damage capstone perk AND wasting your 2x aspect on your hammer. be better off with a good roll of edgemasters on there. i forget what i have in that spot but it's damage.

Any suggestions? I've been trying to replace it but haven't found anything worthwhile that would be a big improvement. Those tornados can and do one shot normal mobs, and it throws a lot of them out all over the screen.

As an aside, I just ran a NM 21 with the double damage skill to see how it went. Stuff died only slightly faster. It wasn't a big improvement over using gushing wounds.

Is this maybe a level thing?

Edgemasters is on my 2h blunt at 38%.
Dire whirlwind is on my 2h sword for 16%/48% (Max rolls)

What can I run on my two 1hs if I drop Ramaladni and the Dust Devil pooper

(Thank you for taking a look btw)

is your 2h a sword? you should be using the 2h axe technique. dust devils are awful, get limitless rage. the thing on your gloves is terrible too, put grasping there for now, put the move speed on your boots and then use your amulet for something better (maybe limitless rage) the barrier defensive passive isnt nearly as good, imo, as the one that gives you fortify for extra fury. do that and the fortify passives that the barbarian has

ramladinis i dont think is good at all unless your 1h weapons are THAT much better for WW (i dont think the passive applies if youre using 2h for ww)

edit: at 70 i had about 7000 armor and 4200 attack power, i think

Yeah, I'll move back to the 2h sword w/ axe technique and find something to replace the two one handers.

I haven't been squishy really. I rarely ever have to use a potion, im always healthy for the most part, so I'm a bit hesitant to replace any defensive aspects just yet.

While I can't necessarily speak for ditching shouts on WW, I've been running my own homebrew no-shouts hota Walking Arsenal build and it's been great so far up to level 80, even with most of my playtime since WT4 being running NM dungeons 20 levels above me. Often play alongside some friends who follow pulverize/tornado wolf/twisting blades meta guides and my character arguably seems to be the strongest, and it's probably the most fun setup I've played in an ARPG. Very active and diverse playstyle.

Though I will say that I tried to respec to a grasp-focused build yesterday (replacing leap) and while it absolutely does pull MUCH better than before, I couldn't justify sticking with the ability. It's very dangerous to use and if you pull too many mobs I find you get stuck and not only cannot move, but can't even attack until you dodge out. Which is not the best when you're surrounded by enemies who started winding up their swings before you even got out of the pull animation.

Man I wanna try this but i'd have to change alot. My life for one loadout slot. Or a way to add notes or something to gear so that I can separate builds.

that's a weak choice on the amulet too, you could get something better out of that than movement speed on crit. i have aspect of the protector there, but you could use berserk ripping for 20-30% bonus bleed damage while you berserk

what about
2h sword: aspect of limitless rage (points of fury over your max give 2-4% damage to core skills up to 60%) (2h values)
2h mace: aspect of dire whirlwind
amulet: edgemasters

you also want grasping ww in there somewhere.

can u run n jump?
as well, starting in T3 and T4, just run past packs of mobs that are too small and/or drag them with you to the next pack that has an elite or would otherwise be too small. elites have better drop rates for gear, give more xp, and when you do need to kill every last mob, the small ones will teleport to you in the waves. even when i was grinding to 100 pre xp buff i didn’t stop to exhaustively kill every non elite mob.

if your gear doesn’t support WW on less than like 3-4 mobs, don’t fight less than that many mobs

also umbral isn’t bad for WW but i’d bet that an echoing fury from the codex would give more fury at more useful times than it. if you are wwing on a pack and apply CC via slow bleed and the slow doesn’t drop, i don’t think you get another burst of fury from umbral

just make a fresh character and death run it if you're concerned. the alters count for all your characters and a fresh character will have the waypoints

journey into Kirk's unknown


I've seen a few people share additional clans and I'm partial the name we chose so, if anyone wants to join The Moorps, feel free to send me (shad#1893) a DM. We both played D3 for ~10 years and kept up with it more or less throughout grinding GRs and all that fun stuff. We're in this for the long haul and it would be fun to have more folks along for the journey.

Man. Christ.

I'm 56 on necro.
I just moved from a nice Legendary 1H sword to a Sacred Rare 2H Scythe that I imprinted a well-rolled Ossified Essence on.

My damage has literally more than tripled from this move, and frankly - I have not noticed a big loss from the shield going away. Granted I've only done a few T1 and T2 NM Dungeons so far, so this could change, but holy smokes the power output is feeling awesome right now.

Is there any reason I would want limitless rage on 2h sword, and dire whirlwind on 2h mace? Right now I have dire on my 2h sword, and limitless on my 2h mace.

I can swap them because i've got tons of aspects sitting around, and I can also add them as I upgrade weapons as well.. But it shouldn't make a difference as far as I know.
