Yeah, that's what I was told. Hidden synergy, sorta?
Weird stuff.


I re-performed the experiment, this time with a twist to highlight the difference.

lvl 1 find item (supposed to be 13% chance). lvl 20 Find potion. Stripped all +skill gear/charms.

horked 47 monsters, 19 successful (40.4% chance). Highly likely there's a hidden bonus.

Wonder what 40gf warcry skillers going to go for now? 2k?

Did you try a Zerk swap setup? Zerk synergizes with BO now, so Barb could help kill phys immune more reliably idk


Nope, will try now, I also got a hold of demon limb.

I tested multiple setups. The best one damage wise was a combination of eth CoH, grief pb mainhand for acceleration and eth upped headstriker socketed with an amn, helmet was guilli with 15ias/40ed jewel. Main problem with this setup is there is no answer to physical immunes among council. You have to use gavel is a very specific case which messes up the timing. Same setup with lawbringer instead of headstriker was doing less damage but could take care of the immune problem. The chance for decrepify is just 10% though. No matter what combination I tried, act2 merc is superior so I didn't bother capturing and uploading the result.


Can you test just 1x Headstriker? From what I see, when equipping just 1x sword, it seems to duplicate on the other hand as well. Wondering if the bugged 2xdps thing still works.

I did all the test, I'm uploading the video. 1x Headstriker loses vs grief+ headstriker. I'll also make the hidden item find synergy (find potion) test.

The tests are made pretty much the same way. I make 5-6 travi runs. First three runs, I let the merc do everything, I just hop around to stun sometimes. In fourth one, I stun travi minions with battle cry. In the last one, I stun and help killing with Berserk. Berserk is veeeery strong with BO as synergy. First one is 1 x Upped Headstriker:

Thanks for the videos. I think generally, while this topic is obviously about Trav GF, I'm more interested in the raw dps output, and trav has too many variables to account for to measure accurately.

I did the follow tests on bnet on meph (used max battlecry to reduce his defence as much as possible). Equip was Arreats + CoH.

run1 dual grief:43s
run2 dual grief: 47s

run3 1xgrief: 50s
run4 1xgrief: 50s

run5 1x bk sword: 122s
run6 2x bk sword: 119s

Oath 340% NON ETH cryptic sword 22-338dmg, 180avg
run7 64s
run8 70s

LW PB (CB did most of the work)
35s

Could you perform the same test with 1x eth up'd headstriker and 2x eth up'd headstriker? No need for video, just post the time to kill.
