Whats the most powerfull runeword for 2 hand weapon

^ Quite some nice mods on 'Obediance', but it's quite slow. :[

What about Obedience in a Cryptic axe? Is that a viable option?

Freaking awesome for berserking, but sucks for whirlwind.

[DcDrachma]

Define sucks =)

Im gonna play my first ever WWbarb soon, Im a total noob. How important is weaponspeed? Is the lack of it in Obedience CA that makes it bad?
I didn't plan to invest multiple HRs in this barb, will it do for a budgetbarb, and how does it affect rest of the gear?

[Barloc]

IAS is important for ww because it allows you alot more hits on your target(s). You could have a great High damage weapon, but returns diminish when you don't hit as much.
Also the IAS has to be on the weapon, so IAS from any other items will not effect your WW speed at all.

[DcDrachma]

Okey thanks for clearing that up!

[Barloc]

NP. here's the link for calculating speed. Basically you want 4 frame/6.2 attacks per second.

If you take ww out of the picture (we hates whirl-hurl yes we do!), I'm going to have to put Death as the primo 2h wep. About the same ed% as botd with 50% cb and 40% ish deadly strike at high level. The avg on this is primo and easily able to have 100cb/ds. on every hit. This will put a botd to shame

Ive both a botd gpa and a 395% ed death sword. The death "pwns" the botd. It is a little slower, but not horrible. (highlords, nos, loh's and ias arreats of gface and your swinging fast)

Bezerk ftw!!

Death is such a crazy weapon damage wise. Seems like off hand frenzy would be the most appropriate for it.

[Damric]

oh death is very good for an offhand frenzy weapon (especially ettin axes).

But it truely shines for a 2 handed weapon for berserking.

Yum Yum decapitators and colossal swords!!!!!!!!!
