BoTD in Phase Blade, Is it really waste of zod rune? :(

General Discussion
1

really want to sell it for vex and zod, anybody?

2

My guess is you could get an ist or Gul maybe for it.

It really needs an ethereal base to have good damage.

Sorry, I feel for you.

Ethereal in a zerker axe is the norm for a reason.

I can give you Ist for it.

I don’t think I can sell it for Ist, I’ve been using it for my main weapon, need at least zod and vex to make another botd :frowning:

you’re not gonna get a zod and vex for it.

Someone with a zod and vex will make their own Eth BOTD…and actually make it on a valid base this time. Probably the best you can hope for would be something like a Gul.

8

Well, he might get a vex for it. Or the Zod… but he’s sure as hell not getting the makings of another one.

it isn’t the worst weapon in the world, the 60% IAS on a phase blade can help certain builds reach max attack frames much more easily. But for sure kind of a wasted base to make botd in, there is a reason why eth berserker axe is generally the best base.

LastSuha go to traderie and post it on there, I’m sure you can find someone who will want to trade for it.

ah sucks :frowning: could always try d2jsp if that it doesn’t bother you. but yea it is going to be a tough sell… what ed% & ll% did it end up having?

14

I would keep it as a kick weapon till I got a Stormlash

Phase blade is popular for grief and a few other runewords because it is very fast and naturally indestructible. The damage is so low that it is not worth using on a weapon that gets its main bonuses from enhanced damage however. Grief just straight adds the damage so it doesn’t matter that phase is low.

BotD requires high base damage and has indestructible on it. People want that eth base for the extra damage.

As you said, a botd phase blade will be worth next to nothing.

16

Good pick, I was thinking fireclaw druid :stuck_out_tongue: technically needs 120% IAS PB to reach max frames but would still be fun ^^

always do your research before making a runeword. In fact I’m assuming you did your research so why the hell did you put it in a phase blade, you definitely don’t deserve a vex or a zod for it.

18

Ouch, and I thought it was bad making my CTA in a 5os Knout lol.

19

breath of the dying is weak garbage weapon, get Grief in BP / if you want to use two handed weapon build then dont use grief/ but grief is so strong u dont need two handed weapon

20

Eh, Ebotd in an eth zerker is decent. It just doesn’t compare to that bs known as Grief, which makes every other 1 hand weapon in the game useless.
