Wondering what is recommended to socket into an IK Stone Crusher for a WW barb?

I see a lot of posts and vids saying to socket shael runes however with the ogre maul, the breakpoints for 6 FPA and 5 are 58 IAS and 125 respectively. The full IK set already gives 65 IAS so I hit the 6 FPA breakpoint. Is it worth going for the 5 FPA breakpoint (and then also throwing shael runes or jewels into the 2OS of the helm)?

I thought about Um runes to get open wounds in case I want to do Ubers? OHM runes for more ED? Gul or Eth runes to reduce how much AR I need?

I use the angelic ammy and ring for AR and Raven Frost for CBF.

Thanks!

2 x Ber to maul and 3 x 15 Ias / 40% ED to Helm & Armor.

Use HL + Raven + what ever ring for missing Ias + CBF

That hits 125 Ias bp, have enough CB% and CBF source.

Thanks for the feedback!

How would I make up for the loss in AR? About half of the 10k AR i currently have comes from the angelic set. I am assuming filling my inventory with 3/20/20 small charms as needed?

isn't IK more of a budget build? super expensive jewels and charms sort of contradict that concept imo

make sure you have perfect cb on your maul before you put anything good in it. also 2 eth runes would be a good cheap option for it.

Yeah it is, mostly just curious on thoughts. Though I do like the look and feel of full IK set so I kind of like the idea of using it for a WW build and making it the best it can be
