Its not. I tried looking it up and it says p1 is 1/4 health per cb and p8 is 1/18th + other factors.

Read that here:http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=64608330&f=161

And your only hope at an Amn pre A5 norm was hell forge(Highest rune it can drop). And maybe diablo himself.

i cubed one with thul runes and i have a low strength sword , dosent seem to help alot in p-8 , i still wanted to try it though, it may help once i have a sword that does more initial damage then let the CB factor into it afterwards, i read up on it on arreat summit and on diablo wiki, on p-8 i believe it does instead of 1/4 damage it goes to 1/18 damage i beloeve is what i saw so its really not a huge help as far as p-8 goes, except for bosses of course where every bit helps speed up the long battle, as for regular progress it seems to not be of much help over a good sword or axe

It's actually about as effective, p1 vs p8. In p1, it hits for more health% per hit, but in p8 it hits for a higher % for longer.



Weapon crushing blow only applies to the weapon you're swinging, so if your only crushing blow is from Strength, only half your swings will have it. Crushing blow on other gear however is universal and works for both weapons.

Using Howl and Taunt so that you only fight one or two things at a time will make you a lot safer.

E: If you're gear-starved, make sure to check out Halbu (and later, Larzuk) for magical weapons. I found a War Axe of Butchery (+39 to max damage) from Larzuk, I think is who it was. One of the two. And don't forget that you can use cube recipes to upgrade normal→exceptional for rares rather cheaply: ort + amn + perfect sapphire + weapon. Although, you should probably wait until you get a weapon with more than 30% ED...
