Double Throw Barbarian: Blade of Ali baba (2 Ist) or Crystal Sword (6 Ist) on swap?

No data yet

Description

Hi

I'm leveling a
Double Throw
Barbarian.
I'm currently using 2
Gull
on swap.
Once I reach L51, I want to replace them for
Blade Of Ali Baba
(2
Ist
)
or
Crystal Sword
(6
Ist
)

What is the most common choice 🤔?
(as I gamble rings maybe the extra
Gold
would help... or it only worth if I go for "dedicated
Gold
farm" 🤔🤔)
5

Can be used to make Runewords:

With
Blade Of Ali Baba
(2×, both 2×
Ist
) you get 222% MF (318% at max level) and 254% GF (494% at max level).
With CS (2×, both 6×
Ist
) you get 360% MF.

Given that MF has diminishing returns, and that you'd realistically start farming at a higher level (so the gap between Ali Baba's and CS' MF would get smaller), I'd choose the former.

Common choices are:

x2 wizzy
x2 hoto
wizzy + Spirit mon
x2 Hustles

The first 3 choices are to reach FCR while using Enigma.
At your level, I recommend using x2 hustles if you can get them.
But you are free to use other choices if you want more MF, GF.

pm me here (d2.

Would add 2x Echoing (+3 Warcries) 1h weapon with 2
Ist
in each (
Larzuk
quest) to the selection.
"1h weapon" includes 2h swords and excludes throwing weapons because they can't be socketed.

Rationale:
  • With the usual Enigma and some more mf setup, 2x6
    Ist
    is overkill mf-wise. I use those only in terrorized
    Travincal
    where Uniques may be realy good aka
    Griffon's Eye
  • 4x
    Ist
    (120% mf) is enough to make a significiant increase in item quality
  • +6 to
    Find Item
    equals 1-2% higher chance of getting an item at all out of hork which is quiet significant on the long run
  • +6
    Battle Orders
    is also nice and equals a huge boost in survivability on Barb
  • Except you are a dedicated
    Gold
    farmer, extra
    Gold
    from ali baba is not that important.

Post ur offer before adding me. No PM. Only add me if u offer bin/lf. No reply after 3 days=offer rejected
No socketing service. If u get item otherwise, retract ur pending offer. Edit ur post or post "retracted" to do so.

Will try it on end game.
For now I went with the
Blade Of Ali Baba
+ 2
Ist
set.

Personally using a wizzy + baba (2x
Ist
)

not a bad combo. Could even socket the wizzy /w
Ist
for even more MF.

Depends on char. On Sorc, Ali looks weird, so go for CS. On Barb, CS looks like a plastic toy, so go for Ali.

I've got on SCNL
- Mosaics, Cures, and Hustles
- GG crafted amulets
- Perfect uniques
- Bases
