how to use: my rare 363% ED Crystal Sword

Crystal Sword
1h damage: 23-70
clvl: 48
+363% ED
+1 max damage
+113 AR
+1-20 lightning damage
+12 poison over 3 secs
5% mana leech

amazing damage! some high end runewords can do more %ed, but that is already a lot for me.
Also Azure has more usefull stats, but
I think i will up it and give it to my

Zeal/fanazin.
Then i punch in a hole (for rare, the socket quest is always 1 socket, right?)
and add a

Shael rune.

The ed% dont matter if the weapon base is low. You might wanna consider something better, there are lot of cheap runewords that can beat this weapon, i would not even bother

Charsi with this weapon.

Dont waste your socket quest in this, you will find a better weapon easily. Even if you want to use rare/magic weapon, you will find something better.

But do as you like, if you wanna add some extra challenge for this game, this weapon is propably great for that.

The enhanced damage is amazing, but sadly the damage is not. 23-70 is less than many elite White items, don t waste a

Larzuk in it.

Well, it is a

Crystal Sword. So that leaves room for 2 cube upgrades, bumping the damage to a 143-163

Phase Blade at a cost of less than

Um

Lem in total (i.e. significantly cheaper than interim runewords like KS or Death).

In terms of raw dmg, that's not bad at all for a phase. Though it obviously doesn't compare to the better runewords out there.

Certainly seems worth using in the interim, until you get something like a Grief or the like to replace it with. And considering how easy it is to get another socket alt rushed, I'd totally

Larzuk that if I were still just starting to gear up.

Death is interim? I ve heard of very few people that can say Death is not forever, one being Jesus.

Forever is overrated.

Best advice.

Hey guys, thank you very much for your experienced thoughts on this, i appreciate

I will probably use it, as it is also a coolness factor for me, so i save for some up runes and develop my paladin.

It has some cool factor it, but i would use the runes require to up it n just buy an

Azurewrath, which will give u better damage and surviability….

Aaaaah!

I upped it to

Dimensional Blade and the clvl requirement went up from 48 to 53! Why???

Upgrading from normal -> exceptional adds +5 to base lvl req.

Edit: I should add that it's +7 from exceptional -> elite; this is cumulative, which means it's +12 if you fully upgrade.

doh...

So final clvl 60...

thx Khegan!
