Why do you prefer these? Also does the dex requirement hard to get to with phaseblades?

Which is better metalgrid or highlords.
Dungo or nos

Gear iam usuing is ap nigma dracs gores arreats raven.
Also is the ed on botd and death make a huge difference from say a low ed one to a high ed. Like is the killing power that much more noticeable?

Higher damage always equals more killing power, and can be the difference between killing things in 3 hits or 2 hits.
If you need more IAS, Highlord's is definitely the amulet of choice. It also helps with the nice chunk of deadly strike.
Verdungo's is hard to pass with large amounts of vitality and DR, however, as with your amulet, Nosferatu's is a good choice if you need more IAS.
As for the dexterity requirement on a phase blade, it's worth it if you want faster weapons that never need to be repaired.

eth phase blade upgraded rare from a dimensional blade with doom mod and high ed.

Good luck getting this though. But I had one on one of my barbs for hardcore berserker that I got to level 96 before I stopped.

i think it all comes down to preference :)

i use dual eth botd ba's loads of dmg and leach :D

i also tried grief pb and last wish pb - was also working quite good.

oh yeah, i also happenede to speak with a guy who liked oldschool weapons, he used dual Wind (think the runeword name is) and he liked it a lot

so choice, choices ;) my good sir.

thou eth death and either grief or last wish may be the best output for max dmg :P

I ran a frenzy barb with grief zerker and beast zerker a few ladders back and the only thing that gave him any trouble whatsoever was ubers. Even then, a bit of patience and a lifetap wand worked wonders.
