Description

Hey guys. My goal is to make a pit zerker and farm some TC87's. I think I have the most important gear part sorted, being Enigma. I do miss a Cham rune for the Harlequin Crest, a Grief and a 6 Ist'ed Phase Blade.

Although not ideal I can see how I can fix the Cham and the 6 Ist'ed Phase Blade. I could run a Rhyme or Trang-Oul's Girth for the "Cannot be frozen". Wearing a shield would also temporarily solve the missing Phase Blade. What I can't seem to find any information on, is the Grief. What could I possibly run instead of Grief for the time being? Or is it not even worth running pits without Grief. Keep in mind i want to be more or less efficient since I'm farming on an Enigma hammerdin atm.

Any help will be much appreciated! :<

Very good topic, I'm trying to build pitzerker too. My primary weapon is Oath runeword in eth cryptic sword 325% Ed with no cold damage.
I think this is a best choice for melee fighters who can't get Ebotd, Grief and other expensive runewords.
Second hand - the most interesting. I"m sure it must be a shield because berserker skill is very dangerous for life )
75% block and high resists are pretty good.
But it's a really hard to choice best shield. Rhyme is good, but Cham'ed Gerke or Spirit Ward may be better. People recommends Moser's shield, but I compared upgraded mosers with Spirit ward - last have better % of block and other goods even without fade...

If you want, I actually have an Azurewrath in my stash that you can have.

OP
@Zerum Thanks a lot for replying. But I'm afraid Lawbringer and Azurewrath are not an option for a pit zerker since it adds cold damage. That would shatter the corpses which means I would not be able to use Find Item. I will certainly try Crescent Moon when I find a 3os Phase Blade. I did not bother keeping those bases. :'(

@PrincipalOShagH Thank you but it adds cold damage. I can't use that.

How to get Cannot Be Frozen ?
-> Trang-Oul's Girth
-> Death's Guard

EDIT: Oh you already know about that, my bad.

@Imp-rostov I think Stormshield could also be a contender here. The damage reduction on that one is high. A small update on my pit zerker. I was lucky enough to find a Stone of Jordan which I traded for a Lo rune. With that I made a Grief which rolled 34% IAS. Not the highest roll but with Goldwrap I am hitting the 42% IAS breakpoint for Berserk. I'm so stoked!!!

Looking forward to build my own zerker soon'ish. The Option to use Oath at the beginning sounds good. What would be viable bases for both Oath and Grief, Considering one is not looking for the absolut perfect stuff?

Prices are negotiable :)

Grief only in Phase Blade and nothing else, of course. Many guides recommend an Eth Balrog Blade for Oath, but some experts says Highland Blade is better. I bet attack range of Cryptic Sword is same with BB and it has one of the top atack speed of Ethernal base weapons
