Best 2 Hand Maul weapon?

With pvp in mind what is the best 2hander for a maul bear druid? Ive been cubing a giant thresher in hopes of cruel of quickness but i think i might be wasting my time. Is the tombreaver a lot better with comparable speed? Ill keep cubing anyways just cuz its something to do in baal games but im not sure if cgtoq is still the best.

Heya,

Just curious, how is a Cruel of Quickness going to rumble as much as the much easier to acquire eBOTDgiantthressher? Higher ED% (~400%) and 60% IAS right off the bat, not to mention big time reduction in requirements (since threshers are retarded high stats to use).

Cheers,

In my opinion using a 3 shael Tombreaver is the best you'll get, it's 6 frames and another 50 OIAS takes it to 5 frames. Perfect 2-handed for bears.

Breath of the Dying Giant Thresher is 7 frames max, which is to slow for pvp.

reason i wanted cruel gthresher of quickness is because with 2 shaels its hella fast at 5 fpa. I dont think its worth it to get all that oias to make tomby 5fpa but i suppose you're right and a 6 fpa tomb reaver would be the best

For a Mauler, eTomb is probably your only choice if you want to keep your damage and speed up, although 6fpa is kind of slow for hitting casters.

i just checked ias calc and 5fpa is possible with etomb. It requires 68 oias. That'd be super sexy so whats best combo to make 68 oias with? 120/45 helm 20 highlords 10 bloodfist?

You've done something wrong. 3 shael Tombreaver is 6 frames and another 50 OIAS takes it to 5 frames. Unsure where you're getting 68 OIAS from.

eth tomb reaver zod shael shael + 68 oias= 5 frame maul. I get a boner every time i kill someone in one shot with it. Also fun to get unshifted to human form then kill them by whacking em with my big stick

My bad, eth Tomb Reaver sounds good if you don't mind the 70ias needed.

Valvolux! sup bro

Maybe a Treachery or one of those oldschool 1.09 jeweled armor's would be a good candidate Highlords & bloods would then put you right over :thumbsup:

I'm not a huge 2 hander fan with bears but could be fun.

Finally found the jewels to pull this off and it turned out AWESOME! 10k maul damage at 5 frame attack with very strong resists. Only problem is i have weak AR with this setup. This sort of ties into my other post and im thinking of maxing fireclaws for more ar. Charge up maul to full then switch to fireclaw and the extra little bit of fire dmg wont hurt any.(about 500 or so)
