Since they are now having Eth weapons lose durability, wouldn’t it still be viable to just run an Eth Obedience in an elite Polearm and just make a new one each time it dies?

Super cheap base, super cheap runes. I’ve been playing with one this season and have enjoyed the Enchant quite a bit.

Thoughts?

"viable"? As viable as running any other eth item that you can replace... If you wanna play like that, why not? But a majority will not. They don't want to have to replace gear every few games.

Makes zero sense to do so with obedience when eth elder staffs and cvs are readily found.

Won’t know of course know anything till patch hits, zero point in guessing about anything until then.
Somethings can pretty much guarantee will be in patch, dura being one of them.
