Hy i have a question shall i stick to Deicide make it 2 socket +10 or make a nirvana 1- st stage 2 socket and refine it to +10?
The damage difference between them is little and to make the nirvana 2 soc u need 2k socket stones, 46 Chienkun stones and 100 raps totaling around 250 mill.
Is it worth that damage increase?

    go for nirvana 1cast claws, and don't need to be 2sockets the claw, doesn't worth lots of chienkun for only 1 more garnet and a tiny grow on dmg.


    but if u really loves 2socket weapons make the tt100 fist, they worth 150m only and has 100% chance of 2sockets.

    when i made my lunar claws they came out 2socket, so i decided i didnt have the money to nirvana them right away so i just +10ed them. do i regret it? nahhh, i can just farm back the +10 when i do transfer to nirvana.

    I kept my Deicides at +8 because its a huge jump of chienkun stones to transfer +8 vs +9 (but a small jump +9 to +10) and I already planned on using chienkuns to transfer the 2 sockets.

    All I can tell you is Regicides are nice but Deicides vs. Regicides are a pretty small jump. Basically Regicides are Deicides +1 and the fact that it costs 300mil plus to get that is...

    I'd say if your barb is the only character using the claws then stick with deicides and focus on other gear first.

    You can get away with +ing them for the nirvana refine to +3 or +5 and probably the sockets just don't carry the gems over I hear that's the expensive part. b:chuckle

    Ty all for the feedback.

    I think i will stick with Deicides as endgame claws for now and maybe i will make my Nirvana Daggers for my sin with the raptures.

    I personally decided to go Regicides, the cost was about....170 mill for the rapture crystals and about....161 chienkun stones for the 2 socket and +10 refine transfer if I remember correctly.

    Either way, it was worth it for me on a personal level. Plus, I made a sig off of it. b:cute

    Yes,It is worth it to get g13 regicide claw, the gap at +12 is huge. The damage difference is great. At +10, you wont notice much differences tho. but in the end the best claw is g13 one unless you have a couple bill waiting to go reforge for g15 and hoping for a .05 .05 interval.

    I just resold my lunars and made TT99 base nirvana fists. I bought the chienkuns when they were on sale and I refined the nirvana claws from scratch. I think making TT99 2 socket fists and transferring just the refine (only 42 chienkuns) then re refining nirvana while selling the lunar is better than making the lunars nirvana.

    If Economy stick with +10 decides, they will keep resale, and dmg will be About like everything else at 5 aps. Good for farming.

    If money is less of an issue or you want 'special' claws go for 2nd tier nirvana.

    I believe +11 or +12 decides would probably give you more damage for investment than making them 2 socket or first grade nirvana. However the latter 2 are end game planning if you plan on +12 your wep anyway.

    if i will make a +12 weapon it will be first cast nirvana or second cast with -0.05 add but is not worth it and i believe +10 deicides are enough for a clawbarb

    Yeah, I'm using single socket +10 deicides and until the rest of my gear is finished that should be enough. Once I'm happy with my armour / jewellery I'll go for second cast nirvana claws and make those +12 / 2 sockets.
