what next?

[jlyeary]

I have a Conc/WW Barb and I'm gonna be mastering in Axes. I still have the skill points in reserve cause i'm currently using Baranars. What should my next weapon be? I can't seem to find one that out damages it. I'm sorta poor so I'm not gonna have a BotD anytime soon. Also any suggestions on any gear I could get. Currently sporting:

level 81

Arreats
Dracs
SOE
Gore Riders
Highlords
Ravenfrost
Rare 5% mana/ +9 res all ring
SS
Black Hades with some +all res jewels
Baranars

I had Levi on, but damage reductions caps at 50%, right? and i'm gettin that from SS and SOE. any input would be great... thanx!

Hmmm, to beat Baranars you'll need a good axe as it is an Elite weapon.
I was going to suggest Butchers Pupil as a good starter axe, but you are level 81 :lol: Plus its damage is lower than baranars. What it does have is good though. Deadly strike, open wounds and indestrucable.

Another good one might be Razors Edge. The elite axe. 50% DS, 50% OW and
-33% target def. But still wont beat baranars.

Any of the new runewords would be great in a berserker axe, as would be a death cleaver. If you're lacking in fundage, you could try Cresent Moon in a berserker axe; that static field helps out a lot.

And yeah, pdr caps at 50%, so you can replace your body armor with something like Duress or such, if you'd like.

While crescent moon in a zerker axe is awesome, it kills quicker than a non-eth botd zerker with low-mid ed, it is very annoying. I have to repair it so often, cause of BA's low dur, and it costs quite a bit, at least 2k per dur, can't remember exactly.

i picked up a rune master 5 socket axe.. would this be better than the crescent moon zerker axe? if so, what should i socket it with?
