10/10. Wow. Just wow

The sockets doesn’t beat 2 barb. It’s 2 mastery, ww, iron skin, increase speed, you name it

10

its nowhere close to what 40/15 max will give you in terms of damage.

weapon must hurt... his helm/armor will hit 40k def anyway.

weapon for damage armor for everything else.

I am sure that vasya already know what 1sock + 2sk fools ba is like.

with proper setup 2sk would close to 2soc.
Overall 2soc better. Agree.

10!

1 Sock Jewel = 40% dmg +15 max

2 Barb Skills (Jewel) = 26% dmg 26% Bonus ar (1% critic) 20% defense bonus (1% faster walk)

-> Now in every slot you are using jewels with 30%ed 60ar... wasted
You got 26% Bonus To Attack rating more with this axe brother now.

+2 Barb skills on weapon bonus to character:
+2 Whirlwind = +16% Bonus Damage +10% Bonus Attack Rating
+2 Axe Mastery = +10% Bonus Damage +16% Bonus Attack Rating
(probably also increases his Crytical strike +1-2% or so..)
+2 Iron Skin = +20% Bonus Defense
(also +2 faster walking will give +1-2% walk)


So all depends what you need but as was said so many times and its basic princpipe of this game
and mathematics but especially this old bug game,

Weapon = DAMAGE
Armory and Inventory = ATTACK LIFE DEFENSE


Gl vasya !
