Question..

Using EF as oh .

Got a maxe 1000dps ~ 300min 300max and random stats.
Got an axe 1000dps ~ 300min 300max and same random stats.

Which 1 should i use? is there any reason to use mace? or going for axe cause its faster? and skip some ias from gear..

Tnx ;)


the axe will not make you faster, and wont allow you to skip ias from gear either

mace is the way to go, more average damage

Couple questions, both dumb, your MH weap speed is irrelevant?
What is the benefit of nados, fury regen right?

MH speed is very relevant because it affects the speed at which half of your nados tick. This is why EF is so good, because it boosts the otherwise slow mace speed to respectable levels.

Nados are indeed your main source of fury regen, however they are also an enormous source of your overall damage. Depending on your playstyle and your relative dps to mp level, it could be anywhere from 50% to 75% of your total damage output.

This.
But I think mace always cost more than axe
That's why I keep using my axe

In this general order:

1) Swap your OH to MH and get EF for OH.
2) Work your way towards 2.50 breakpoint.
3) IK Chest
4) Upgrade jewelry

You don't need 50k life to do mp0-2 and you don't have enough dps to be doing more than that efficiently.

This , but not necessary to get a EF for off hand. Someone just dunt like that fear.
Get a sword or dagger with nice stats also work well
