Grief Zweihander,Should I?

Grief Zweihander,Should I?

Well I heard that the Grief Zweihander, is probably the best weapon for me. PvP/BvB wise. But I looked everywhere for the actual runes needed and stats of this runeword, but its never to be found!? I looked everywhere.:sad2:
Is it in a different name perhaps?

Anyways I was playing last night and I was under the influence so I made some mistakes haha. I socketed an etheral zweihander in to a 5 socket, but I'm not sure if a Zod goes in there, or if it becomes indestructible, or even yet; if it has to use 5 sockets...Now I think that I was thinking that I needed to make a EBOTD but a zweihander one, because in my stash I see I have every rune for a BOTD, except Vex.

Anyways can anyone help me out and tell me how badly I wasted that socket quest or if I didn't?

thanks a lot.

I dont think that socket zod, remove zod trick works anymore....the zod bug has been fixed in this patch...

Grief Zweihander works well for barbs, and more style points in my opinion, or you can still go with 5os zerk anyways, but Grief Zwei with any %ias will work 30-40ias all reach ww break point.

If you find eth 5os Zweihander....you're better off making a barb merc weapon, destruction or Death...

Never make grief in a eth item, because the zod bugged recipe has been fixed...

So I guess I wasted that socket quest then haha damn.
Oh and I didn't actaully put those runes in, just put them in the stash right next to the sword.

But can you give me more info about this runeword, like which runes go in it, and the stats of it?
So I know now that a 5 os Zweihander is the best to use? and not an Etheral one.

thanks

This site should help, just scroll down and search for grief
5os berserker axe
5os Zweihander
5os Phaseblade

these 3x are the weapons I'd put grief in...the rest is up to you

Ahhh finally thanks haha.
I guess I'll trade my Zod for Lo.

So any normal 5 socket Zweihander is fine?
And it doesn't matter which order you put in the runes right?

Thanks.

 

[anotherlaughingman]

the order matter, follow it exactly.

Personally, I like the phase blade option a little better, though the zweihander does look cool, slightly better range. The main reason I'd use a phase blade is the fact that you don't have to bother with repairing it ever.

 

[oscarmk1]

well it does look better, but that's it.

lol pointless thread. i found out you can make griefs only on Ladder.

Now I think that I was thinking that I needed to make a EBOTD but a zweihander one, because in my stash I see I have every rune for a BOTD, except Vex

.

Im not quite sure what you meant by that but just in case you are considering ebotd in that zweihander ...check the formula first it requires a SIX socket sword.

As far as the wasted post.Now you know what grief you want go play some ladder.:smiley:

lol same thing. The point is I messed up, and under the influence.
