best weapon to make a passion?

[evolutionxii]

hi all,

Just considering making a barb in bear form using passion runeword, could anyone advise which weapon will be the best for passion? and would it be better for 1h or 2h weapon? as I dont know much about the bearbarb...anything else i need to think of..like ias...etc.

great appreicate in advance.

Beast runeword grants werebear skill, that said, caduceus is a good choice, but ettin axe is much easier to come by for making Beast

Unfortunatly you cant use any of the passion skills it offers such as Zeal in Wereform. A 2-h weapon would be much slower than a 1-h about 1-2 frames slower, the ias passion offers is insuficient which would make your attack even slower. Though if you must choose a Zerker Axe would make a good choice.

Thank you for your advice.

One question, if i make the passion on zerker, it will not hit the 2nd ww breakpoint as the passion itselt only gives 25%ias. Even if i use a highland blade, it still misses a 5%ias... Please correct me if i am wrong.

i think your right on both accounts but a cresent moon highland blade iirc hits both bp's and is a handy weapon for those that cant afford eBoTD like most of us.
