Bul Kathos' Sacred Charge?

Hey guys!

I just started playing single player again and luckily enough I found Bul Kathos' Sacred Charge Colossus Blade. I was thinking that I´d build a barb around it since it looked pretty neat. I´ve got some questions though.

Is it any good at all? How far can I expect to use it and still be able to kill things in an acceptable pace?

What build would be good for it? Barbarians haven´t been my chars since classic really. WW was the **** back then. Can it still be used?

take into consideration that the rest of my gear will probably be rather mediocre in the beginning. The only other good item that I´ve got is a Demonhorn´s Edge Destroyer Helm.

Thank you.

Congats! It's a decent sword. Decent damage, IAS, resistances, and comes with a bit of CB. Unfortunately, it has Knockback, which can be quite annoying (or not at all) depending on what you plan to do with it.

Very vague. What's "acceptable" to you? I see you're single player, but if you've played around with a 'Grief' in the past, then obviously BKSC might seem a bit slow. If you want me to consider the whole spectrum of swords in the world of D2 that are late-game worthy, BKSC would rate average/slightly above average.

WW is still pretty leet. IMO, hunt down it's partner sword if you can - Bul-Kathos' Tribal Guardian. Together, they're quite nice. They can hit 4fpa WW or pretty fast Frenzy speeds too. If you get your hands on BKTG, I'd suggest either a WW or Frenzy build.

Then I'm sure you'll enjoy the sword. ;) By the way, Demonhorn's is rarer than an Arreat's Face. You lost out. :p

I see now that I reallt didn´t specify "acceptable", but I meant considering the whole spectrum.

What if I don´t get my hands on BKTG? What build would then be suitable?

Darn! :D Thank you very much for your good answers. Helpful community! :thumbsup:



 
Re: Bul Kathos' Sacred Charge?

yeee trust me im a lvl 85 WW barb and my weapons are pretty *** right now lol
I have a vile husk and a decent lightsabre

I'm sure even just bul kathos charge is better than both my vile husk or my lightsabre lol, but if you get bul kathos tribal guardian the completed set would do you way more damage
