Hello, i have trhrower barb using eth lacerator and eth warshirke and have couple of questions:

1) Does it matter which weapon is held at which slot (left/right) for effectivness/attack speed?
2) Is Razortail best belt if I use warshrike 50% which gives pierce + 49% pierce from Mastery?
3) Also got question about ias as I don't really understand calculator but I heard i need 15aura faith to get max ias?

yes you need to use the warshrikes over your gloves
you don't need razortail. you need more skills to get your pierce to 50% if you use arreats you should be able to but you might need a mastery charm or 2.
the way i understand it you will need a faith merc, but he throws plenty fast without one.

Does pierce from warshrike affect lacerator as well? Or not but it's just not worth it? I Don't need 100% really, 99 is fine, but that would be just for 1 weapon only w/o razor?

that's what people say. i didn't really notice. it did seem to affect the range. I'll play for a bit and swap hands to test

it does seem better with the warshrikes above the gloves. i don't think pierce is being affected though. i'm not getting enough amp procs to have 100% pierce with the lacerator. so i think it makes a different with speed and range. i wasn't able to 100% rule out power of persuasion though.

Sorry, was not not specific enough. The concern here about the pierce was separate from weapons placement. It was solely about razor tail or any other alternative - if that missing 33% pierce affects lacerator that much, cos seems warshirke can get 100% without it, just from skills

peirce form warshrike doesn't affect the lacerator as far as i could tell. i still wouldn't use a razor tail. soe, nos coil, or dungo would be a better choice imo.

Active wepon controlls wepon stats i think.
So whatever is active when projectile hit i think will trigger
But there is also a bug where some wepons stats from main copies over too secondary.
