and the point all along for frenzy/smite/etc was that last wish isn't the absolutely perfect item, but it is a 3x2 item thats relatively cheap that can turn any PvP char into an uberer in a single swap package, instead of needing guillaimes/dracs/goblins/etc swaps to boot


This. I agree. But it's not cheap or even relatively cheap at all, maybe in fg, not ingame.

grief + gore + draculs = job done for half the price. not to mention that in pvp Draculs is like "Teh Gloves" anyways so that you want have to switch.

Anything that melees should already have Dracs in their stash and I have no idea wtf "etc." is supposed to include so that just leaves guil+gores, which is only 2 more slots for doing it faster. Also how exactly do you plan to pick up torches with a PvP char lol?

Draculs is BM in PvP. You must be a mega noobzor.

Having a full inventory+stash+cube without carrying any BM gear=mega noobzor.

Also its not BM on most types of barbs. You must be mega noobzor.

You're missing the point entirely.

He is correct. Last Wish is an AMAZING weapon which some ignorant people cant seem to comprehend this, however.

It gives 60-70 Crushing Blow, which is more than you will ever need with a fast weapon like a Phase Blade. And a good Life Tap chance, way better than Dracul's chance to cast.

That means you can free up Draculs and Guillaumes, and also Gores if you have a Duress for OW. For me, that is awesome customisability. I can now have an original character with any helms, gloves, boots I want which do not fall under 'cookie cutter' category.

Giant Skull? Gaze? Andy? COA? Kiras? Rare pally circlet?
'Blood' crafted gloves? Steelrends? LOH for fire res?
Trires rare boots? Treks? Waterwalk? Shadows?

You are using WW barb as excuse ofc. Obviously since WW doesnt cast Life Tap.

Note the guy said for frenzy barbs or smiters.

I think you are mega noobzor actually, I mean your nick confirms it and all ....

PWNED

Smiters should have Exile in their stash for tap instead of dracs way to fail even harder its still only 2 more slots. I'm yet to see a serious PvP frenzy barb so I'm not touching that with a 10-foot pole.

I'm done feeding troll #2.

Nobody has adressed how a PvP char is supposed to pick up a torch or mf drops. (because if you can xfer off the torch/mf finds you can certainly xfer on gear) :zzz:

stupid topic imo ;)

ofc...there are other weapons to deal dmg or other choices
to get fade/lt/cb/blind/prevents heal/might aura....etc.
but guess what? lw has it all at once and its a great pvm weapon...
any melee chars with phys dmg can solo ut with just this beauty without any other gear changes...
my baba, my kicker, my wolf druid...they izi kill ubers with it...
and if i equip my hammerdin with lw...he hammers minions and smites bosses with ease.
i dont care if i need 7 seconds more to clear ut since im not a 24/7 nerd who cries if he cant
do max ut runs a day.
lw is a simple and good option and one of the best pvm choices...
if u dont believe...ask my mf baba ;)
