Mid-level Fury Weapon?

[sirjahn]

Our lil buddy Baal just dropped me a 285%ed Bonehew Ogre Axe w/2os. If I'm reading speed calculator right, its looks to be too slow for a Mauler but will reach 5fpa Fury w/lvl 8 WW skill w/2 15% ias jewels. Any thoughts on this as a viable mid-level Fury weapon from you pro's? Thanks in advance for any thoughts/comments on this.

For two hander MLD I'd rather use Oath Feral Axe or Upped Shaeled Steeldriver for the daring.

Kind of high requirements for mid level don't you think?
I wouldn't use one. Oath>bonehew for mid level (maybe end level) for PvM or PvP IMO. Of course ebotd GPA is ideal for me, but that's for later.

It could work, but it requires alot of points invested into strength.

If you want to commit and build around using a Bonehew it could work, but as soon as you find something better (and you will) you'll be left wishing you hadn't put so many points in strength.

Thought I might use it on my Titan Fury WW but guess I'll stick with my ribby till somethin' better comes along. Thanks guys for your helpful comments!!!

EBotD Thunder Maul FTW! Who can say no to 27k Fury?

if you got a ribby then by all means up the poor creature and stick appropriate runes/jewels/whatever and you'll have a weapon that'll carry you everywhere in diablo land.

good luck and good hunting!

ps: there's also style points for that fun 'twacking' sound when you swing with the ribby!!
