What is the best base for Beast?

Edit: For a summoning Necro

I will also be putting Pride on my Merc ( I am assuming that is just a standard Eth GT?)

Probably Ettin Axe for Necro. Though the resell value is not as good as BA

I think you can make it in a double axe for the low str req.

Ettin Axe or war spike is fine for necro, but berserker axe if you care about having resale value in the future.

if you want to min max it depends a bit on your helm and armor, but ultimately it doesn't matter much. a shitty cv performs about as well as a great gt

Really? I thought CV has 20% less ias compared to a GT?
