what sword to make grief in?

which sword would you make grief in to hit the last whirl bp? i heard some mention of zweihander being decent to make it in, but i'd appreciate other opinions about it as well

I think Phase Blades are the only swords that make it possible to hit the last WW bp.

A one handed colossus blade will, but only if you get the maximum of 40 ias.

no comments about zweihander? it's a -10 sword, and because the damage on grief is + damage it's not critical that it's in an elite weapon right?

Holy cow, was I wrong.

Colossus Blades (base speed 5) need 39 or 40 ias to reach 4fpa.
NOTHING WITH BASE SPEED HIGHER THAN 5 CAN HIT LWBP.

True, Elite is not as important with Grief, but I just like Elite weapons anyways. Although the requirements could be a big factor too.

Really just go with whatever has the requirements you're likely to meet. If you've got a relatively strength intensive gear setup, then elites are probably best.

yes but there's also the factor that if you're making it yourself then you run the risk of getting a low value for ias so that it won't hit the last bp
