Bonesnap worth sheal for ww?

Ok im building an ikmf barb and i was useing bonesnap to lvl to ik maul will a sheal help me any for ww in it?

A shael will certainly help you. Bonesnap is WSM 10, with no other IAS, so adding a Shael will bring you down to -10 (lower is better) and the WW breakpoints for 2-handed weapons are 0, -10, -30 and -60. That is 2 BPs higher, you will hit a lot more frequently.

Note though, being currently on the path to an IK WW barb myself, Bonesnap is not as good as Steeldriver for the middle part of the game, if you can get one of those. Steeldriver is speed -20 all by itself, and you can Shael or IAS jewel it to hit -30.
I also recommend doing the normal-exceptional unique upgrade on whichever you use when you get a bit higher (just remember the str and level reqs will go up).

IK Maul is a long way off (I'm not there yet with my guy).

Or you can shael a ribcracker and use that. You may be able to hit something like 2000-3000 whirlwind damage with an upgraded steeldriver, but act bosses will take a bit longer than if you use a ribby.

I just built IKMF Barb, currently he's lvl81. I got to put on Stone Crusher an SC two days ago, so here's my opinion: don't bother. I used that maul until about half of Nightmare. Since I was playing /players 8 it began to deal too little damage for my taste. Then, I took Nord's Tenderiser and Aldur's Rythm I had on some mules, and dualwhielded those two until I could put Stone Crusher in my hands. I could be wrong but IMHO any maul before Crusher is too slow and hence deals little damage and monster heal in between your hits. The 50% more hits you get with dual whielding + the fact that one handed weapons are much faster in the first place can get you much better results until that wonderful 76th level :thumbsup:

Just a noob's 2cents....

I strongly recommend a steeldriver over the bonesnap, not even is it faster it deals more damage, and CB isnt such a big issue in low levels. If you dont have it Id be glad to send you one, just leave your email adress

Edit: Scratch. Misread.

Drop an e-mail and I can send a ribcracker. It's pretty low end (something like 220% while the range is 200-300%), but the only one I've found so far.

I think some are leaving out one of the most awesome weapons in the game you can use right before the IKSC.

Windhammer.

Nice damage, great IAS, I think with a Shael you hit the last WW Breakpoint. It's an awesome weapon, and not too hard to come by to boot.

I didn't forget about Windhammer, I used it myself when I was leveling from 68-76, but its level requirment is realy high and I think he needs something for Normal/Nightmare

and yes its a fantastic weapon, hits the last breakpoint on ww with 15% IAS jewel
