Bone Hew value?

Just found one at 300% ED the other day on West. It strikes me as one of the better polearms for a pole-whirly barb. Do you think I could get something pretty good for it... er... that is after I find a Hel rune so I can remove the chipped emerald I accidently plonked in it while storing it in my early level Barb's stash? And does that bone spear kick in while you whirly? That would be pretty freakin' cool.

It would be worth more if it had more ED and was ethereal (it's mostly a merc weapon). Pole barbs are better off with Tomb Reaver.

Normal ones don't go for much.

Yeah tomb reavers are better for a barb

but eth bonehews are massive on act 2 mercs because they trigger the bonespear and poison nova quite often (bonespear 50% of the time). eth bonehews can cost anything between a mal - ist at Asia but don't expect to get that cause most of us are poor right now from making our hotos, ctas and engimas :lol:

my own 309 ed eth bonehew has 2 ed jewels in it...with a total of around 380 + ed. my defensive merc uses that.

I have an eth bonehew on my might merc and it rocks. He does massive dmg. and helps out a lot in leveling with "players 8" in hell diff. The bonespear triggers all the time but does nothing when it comes to dmg in hell (but the sound is cool). No poison nova on bonehew though, som you must be thinking of something else there, but the PMH is of course great. The two open sockets I simply filled whith an Amn and a Shael. :xgrin:

DOH! Sorry....my merc was wearing Andy Mask before -_-"

On retrospect, does the merc trigger corpse explosion by himself?
