Description

Sanctuary Aura, which allows its user to completely bypass the physical resistances of nearby undead foes. Additionally, it has a chance to cast

Decrepify, somewhat compensating for its lack of added physical damage.

Both of these features make this weapon better suited as a swap item for situations that require it, or commonly equipped on Barbarian hirelings for combat support.

This is one of only 3 items that provide the 'Slain Monsters Rest in Peace' mod — the others are

Nature's Peace and

Tyrael's Might.

The 'Slain Monsters Rest in Peace' mod is particularly useful against monsters that rely on corpses. This is especially true for

Nihlathak, because of his very dangerous

Corpse Explosion ability.

Useful with an A5 mercenary on a Windy Druid, as

Decrepify will lower enemies Physical Resistances, allowing your

Tornado to deal more damage.

Tips by mdbarney, jaynetics & ThalesAles

It is the best defensive option for a

Frenzy barb other than Last Wish (and even then Lawbringer is still a damn good option).

Sanctuary Aura makes you ignore physical res of undead monsters, which they all have 50% (somebody check me on this, it might be 25%) physical resistance. It means that you double your damage to Doom knights, ghosts, pretty much anything that is hard for physical characters to kill.

Decrepify is also amazing for bosses and champions/elites. Reduces the damage you take as well as drop physical res of non undead and non physical immunes by 50%, aka doubling your raw physical damage.

Yeah physical damage on Lawbringer sucks but you don’t need any physical damage on it as long as you have a decently weapon like Oath and the elemental damage on Lawbringer is a nice bit of added damage.

Also breaking leech immunity on undeads is huge.

Downside of Lawbringer is the rest in peace mod which will prevent horking when delivering the final blow (~15% less horking or so).

Phase Blade is the best base.

In a

Phase Blade base it is particularly good for a Kicksin or maybe even a pure Martial Arts Assassin.

Decrepify combined with

Dragon Talon and the

Sanctuary Aura make you an undead annihilator.

Note though that

Fists of Fire,

Claws of Thunder, and

Blades of Ice cannot be used with non-claw class weapons; limiting a Martial Arts Assassin to

Tiger Strike,

Cobra Strike, and

Phoenix Strike.

I've been having some fun running two of these on an Act V merc supporting a

Frenzy barbarian, particularly for

Chaos Sanctuary runs. The proliferation of undead means the huge boost to damage from Sanctuary (~1000%) largely mitigates the lack of enhanced damage, and

Decrepify triggers fairly frequently. One of my favorite runewords for the low cost!
