hey guys, i'm making a goldfind barb and my idea is make oath for left hand and in the right hand put same sword with 6lems.

I am doubting what will be the best type of swords for this. Pb for example can't are ethereal, and oath is good in eth bases.

i'm dude eth colossus blade or ethcolossus sword, what's better?

depends on the rest of your gear, how much affixes and sockets you want to dedicate to goldfind or ias
just make sure you pick the highest dmg base with the necessary speed for your desired breakpoint

could also go for highland blade/balrog blade/legend sword/champion sword/conquest sword, sonce those have 4 sockets max (easier to get than 4sox cs or cb)

don't go cryptic sword though, and terribly inconsistent!

this is not something you want to do with a ww barb. it hurts your damage too much. eth balrog blade is what you want for your oath though. even with 50 ias you need ias gloves ammy and a jewl to get max ww speed with a cs. bb has same average damage as cb and is a little faster. they are a lot easier to find too. id make two lem swords on swap for horking. cb and pb and their other versions are the only swords that can have 6 sockets.

I thought about the highland blade, but of course, I wanted to carry a sword with x6lem in my other hand, so it couldn't be in highland.

I am going to use the character only in travi

but why does it have to be the same sword? btw in that case colossus blade is your only choice since colossus sword is 5sox at max

I was unaware that colossus sword max 5, thanks.

Regarding the fact that they are the same, can you take, for example, a colossus blade and a crystal sword with 6lem?

i still dont know why you want to use two identical swords...
it is technically no problem to use a colossus blade in one hand and a crystal sword in the other

Todavía no sé por qué quieres usar dos espadas idénticas...
técnicamente no hay problema en usar una hoja de coloso en una mano y una espada de cristal en la otra.


i don't know that, but thanks! :)

If you’re making a GF barb you might try the gf/mr barb that runs dual Lem’d Ali babas and lets the merc kill everytbing while the barb leaps/warcrys. I have one. Runs are pretty fast 10 mil gold in about 10-15 runs. 2600ish gf 450ish mf
