eBOTD base weapon ?

As im 1 step closer to making my 1st ever eBOTD for my first ever frenzy barb, i need to here your advice, people, on what base weapon should i use.


If it helps, ill use this combo - Grief PB, eBOTD.

What base weapon should i go for ? Some pros/cons ?
I just dont want to ruin it.

If you are going for a sword barb, then I think BOTD should be made in a colossus blade for a combination of high damage and good speed. But I think it's a proven fact that Axe barbs > sword barbs, and axe barbs usually use an eBOTD Zerker and a eDeath zerker.

if you are goin swords try making death in etheral colossus blade. Botd rocks but i tried both for my off hand weapon and death kills much quicker, also off hand weapon ias makes no diferance for frenzy.

Nevertheless, id still make that weapon anyway (ebotdcb) pairing with Griefpb will give great damage against undead and demons.
You can always add a different combo like Lawbringer later if you want.
Eth Breath of the Dying Colossal Blade is a very powerful weapon, specially as main hand weapon against ubers.

Tip: Put botd on main hand (and griefpb on off hand) to gain higher fpa with first 2 initial frenzy swings.

Enigma and Fortitude are probably the top choices. I'd go for Fortitude myself for the increased damage and huge defense, and since you're already moving around so fast while using frenzy.

btw, what would u prefer if making beserker ?
cuz, ive been thinking, i already have UT char, and as i understood Berserkes deal with chaos very nicely
