Upgraded Lycander Aim vs Matriarcal Harmony

Hi.

I'd really like some input on my situation here.

I'v been using a Matriarcal bow with the Edge rune word in it. Today a Lyncanders aim dropped in my lap. I am considering upgrading it.

My plan was to hold out for a 4 socket Matriarcal bow and socket it with the Harmony rune word. Now I am wondering if I should invest in runes into this Lycanders aim bow and upgrade it to an GMB. In order to reach the 2 frame IAS on my strafe I would need probably need to ditch my Lionheart armour and make a Treachery one instead.

Seems to me what it boils down to is if the Lycanders upgraded is better than the Harmony.

Anyone have any viewpoints on this?

Thanks!
PS. This is my first char on ladder.

IMO the harmony is the better option. The damage is more than enough, the elemental damage is just great and the aura is amazing. Upped lycanders isn't really worth it, especially if it's lower than 195ed.

a 4os mat bow can go into the hrs in price so if you are new id suggest selling it if you found one. id say upgrade the lycanders and use treachery. my $.02

My thinking too. I can't seem to find a 4 socket Matriarcal bow. When I do I can still make the Harmony, as that seems to be the better bow...
