How about Larzuk quest adding 1 socket to Unique,Rare, 1-2 to Magic Throwing weapons?
Throw barb is excelent build now. Even on playthrough there is no issue with Quantity anymore!
Only thing I miss is to get a weapon, or customize a weapon…
I know there is Lacerator, Warshrikes, or super rare Eth Rare Throw weapons. But having option to get 1 socket to put a damn Shael/Jewel for faster attacks would be awesome cherry on top of this cake!
I want to thank developers decision to make this build exist in its glory!
And thank to all crying players that made their feedback be heard!
I just like how it is right now without runewords. There are good eth Rare weapons you can find and Unique throw weapons are good enough.
Runewords will ruin 90% of weapons like the case with swords, axes, bows, etc.
Yeah I agree. Throwing weapons are actually in a good spot. There will be some godly rares but dual lacerators or warshrike combo will be a ridiculous amount of damage.
Agreed! On the socket thing though, I’m hesitant because of Javazon and Javazon only. For Throw Barb, getting a socket could be very nice, but another 5/5 facet for Java is technically a buff for an already S-tier build. I can think of 2 different ways to combat that, either don’t allow facets in throwing weapons (this is probably the better way) or no sockets at all for javelins.
Thinking about this further, there’s +5-6jav/40ias magic javelins and getting 2 sockets on that would be absurd. No facets and 1 socket max for javelins if any. 1-2 sockets for Barbs throwing weapons.
I still think even Javazon should be able to customize her weapon. Core problem is just the Lightning Fury skill dealing tons of damage itself. Not items.
Tuning down Lightning Fury skill itself by 10% damage so you can socket Javelins with 1-2 5/5 facets and it would have the same clear speed seems like a good idea. Not sure about exact numbers, but you know what I mean.
