Thanks :)

For players, range = rangeadder + size, where rangeadder is a weapon-specific constant and size refers to the target. The weapon pages list the rangeadder for each weapon. Monsters are either size 1, 2 or 3 (most are size 2 or 3).


War Axe = 0 speed, 2 rangeadder

Cudgel = -10 speed, 0 rangeadder

IAS calc I use:

https://diablo3.%2A%2A%2A/diablo-2/calculatoren/angriffsgeschwindigkeit/?lang=en

Results:

War Axe w/ 20ias, 30 ias from Sigons: 11 FPA
War Axe w/ 20ias, 50 ias from Sigons/twitch: 11 FPA

Cudgel w/ 20ias, 30 ias from Sigons: 11 FPA
Cudgel w/ 20ias, 50 ias from Sigons/twitch: 10 FPA

My personal opinion is that a death's setup is NEVER worth it for an 18 conc, because sigons gives such a nice bonus. However if you have to wear twitch you lose 440 def or so immediately to not wearing an ancient armor. So you could try a deaths set, with twitch, with maybe cow kings. and get yourself down to near zero stat investment, ALL vita. Likely with something like a rare boneshield. 20 FHR on twitch might also open up some possibilities for a higher FHR bp.

so you can see the difference between the two (this would apply to all base 0 and base -10 weapons on barbs using concentrate)

essentially, what it means is with the same investment on a cookie cutter 18 conc (which is 30 ias only from sigons) you are 1 fpa faster using the cudgel, but cannot use twitch to hit the next attack breakpoint.

with a waraxe build you are capable of sacrificing the ancient to get to the same fpa as a cudgel by using twitch

/e: @snipa your link wont work on jsp. cuz reasons no one has been able to explain.

YEAH wtf is up with that link? wierd...

both squad's weps have 20ias which is a nice bonus to play around with! could also achieve the same FPA as a robo war axe & sigons with a 20 ias base cudgel and bfists.

in that case sac the sigons gloves for bfists & 24fhr/5str/life belt (48 fhr bp) on the cudgel setup. waraxe setup would stay the same, except at same fpa as the cudgel w/ bfists. thats personally how i'd go after it.

with that cudgel setup its a loss of 36 defense from the 2set sigon belt bonus (which can be slightly negated by %def on belt...not much, but some) but all the hp from a rare belt over 20 is extra life. and more potential HP depending on the reqs on your AA. i dont think 20 AR is a big deal on conc barbs at 18, but i dont know how much they're usually sitting at.

YUP! that's the gist of it!

you can get 11 fpa w/ cudgel-20ias + 10 ias on bfists

and if you use sigons it's still 11 fpa, but if u add twitch u can hit 10 fpa. might be worth it to test out the low def high life build.
