Yes I get it. You don't want your axes to devalue. Adding clubs doesn't decrease value of axes. THey're still superior and will always be sought out on the elite players. They also scale with dex and strength and crit a hell of a lot more.

Also you have charms with over 100 stats. There are no charms with 100 str. That means you're getting even more crit potential out of those charms and more EE which easily makes up for the poorer ee scaling. There's no comparing axes and clubs. Axes are far superior.


Here's your club and axe prof:

0 (6.30%) club
29 (10.85%) axe


Clubs don't crit period. It's 1 in a 100. Axes crit 1 in 5 or 1 in 10. There's an absurd difference. Trust me. Your axes will still maintain their value.


New players always buy swords too. Clubs are obsolete and aren't even findable anymore. At any given time there are 3 sword sets for trade. How many club sets are out there ft?


I get it, you want your clubs to gain value lol

But there is a reason you were able to get your clubs so cheap :D

And also a great reason why so many items are wanted/needed in a game where there are literally 4 equipment slots :thumbsup:

clubs have value already in my eyes. I like them but that's the value is in preference not output. Damage wise they are inferior to any other setup of the same ee and stats investment.


I'd like to have a reason to reach headhunter. It's never enticing. Headhunter becomes boring extremely quickly and it's a hell a lot weaker than warlock. It doesn't have to be club either. Having any other weapon choices would be nice. It doesn't have to be clubs. They are just the most logical option. It's hilarious how the richer ones are who have every set in the game except clubs are always completely against the idea.

I didn't get my clubs cheap either. My Master quest club cosst 25k. Lvl 50 was 8k. lvl 20 cost 3k. These aren't cheap prices. I know you're able to get tons of items to flip constantly at dirt cheap prices but the items I buy aren't cheap.

voted no... the only char which i see needs some help is the monk... every char beside him can go dex or str route ( or both ) jsut monk is forced to use dex gear... make him a possible club user or what ever type you prefer so its possible to wear str


that way more possible sets would be possible ( or change staff to str that would already help aswell )

Monk has some of the best solo and group climbing abilities in game. Sure he could use some variety, why not but headhunter is in a worse position.

MOnk = dagger, staff, spears, off class cast with whatever you want and mediocre gear.

Headhunter= axes, battleaxes, offclass cast with amazing gear and only with lightnings.

almost everybody that got a headhunter had no problem with gearing him. there is no reason to change anything. axes and battleaxes have the same purpose allrdy. there isnt a 3rd weapon needed with the same purpose. now club is cheap for beginners on feeder + paladin. if clubs could be used by hh it would dramatically increase their price.

Disagree, Axes are far superior in every way to clubs, so they would retain more value than clubs by a long shot. They would lose some value however as they wouldn't be the ONLY option for that character type.


???
On a barb in particular i prefer clubs. The str/dex ratio on clubs is way better than the 50/50 of axes, how the heck do you think a 160ee dagger way outdamages a 200ee staff?
Nothing to do with daggers having a smaller damage range and everything to do with the str/dex ratio.

Axes do get a significantly buffed crit ratio though.


agree'ing that if HH's could use clubs, that the price of clubs would dramatically increase. Wouldn't be a bad thing for me :P



The HH gets some love in the highest melee stats of any character (adding up str/dex/vit, and by far the highest if you just count str/dex). Could always make him more special by giving him even more stats.
75/75/5/35 maybe?

but yes, any player without a tonne of fg which gets hold of him is usually in a bad situation of not being able to afford the gear to use him to the extent of the other characters.

when a 140ee lvl55 axe costs 4k+ when a 140ee club is around 800 shows a bit of a difference

same like headhunter :rolleyes: its about items not abilities ... and IMO if you cold use str gear on monk it would open new path for gearing


Headhunter is one of the best dmg dealers in the game, no point in making him stronger for no real reason
