LW is the best at what it does: enables a character not built for it to do Ubers while minimizing prebuffing, gear switching, and stash space.


assuming you'd want to use a pvp smiter I guess he's wearing a grief pb, you can just switch your (imo) coa with guilliaumes and wws with goblins. With that you get 55% cb at max speed with huge physical dmg (everyone knows what hs and grief do to smite..) and you only need slightly more space (2*1) and 2 clicks more to change all the stuff you need for like 1000 times less money and even more efficiency (compare Faelwen's Countdown to Hellfire)

The biggest problem with LW is the cost, what was Blizzard thinking when they made this item? Maybe they actually wanted people to dupe huigh runes, who knows.

If it had a more reasonable cost/performance ratio I could see more people warming up to it.

that's not even the problem.. :) I mean IF lw would be superior to other weapons, I just might get one myself, but its NOT..

The strange white rabbit (or is it a hare) knows my guide quite well ^^

He is referring to characters not built with the sole purpose of defeating the Übers.

sorry but too many chars can do ubers that are not intended to do them

stahs space is hardly ever a problem because nobody uses his/her playchar as a mule anyway

leveling is also not really a problem, either oyu play them or as some people do it, rush to hell and then leech in walks and so on and so forth

you'd also have to switch your gloves with dracs if you were gm, and you'd lols probably have to prebuf with treachery since ummm you're losing tons of resists from your coa
so thats guillaimes (4 slots)
goblins (4 slots)
dracs (4 slots)
treachery (6 slots)

18 slots vs 6 slots

My bvc has this in his stash/cube:
Hotspurs
Deaths Gloves
Tgods
Stormshield
Delirium
Kiras
Angelics Set
Dwarf Stars
Wisps
2x bo sticks
Demon limb
Last wish
Griffs

Excuse me, but I simply do not have room for goblins/guilaimes/dracs/trechery

i believe most chars have stash gears, so stash space would definitely be a problem.. and in this aspect, lw seems a better choice for someone who isn't a pure uber smiter..
