Just a few questions

I have a few questions about my Barb I was hoping some of the more experienced players would be able to answer for me.

1) I have the lv70 XS axes as my main weapon. But due to the fact that I'm often losing a lot of hp when zerk activates, is it worth investing in a 2nd weapon for grinding/tanking? I have the mold for the Cudgel of Ancient Alloy, and was thinking about using that when I hit lv79, and save my XS for when I'm pking.

2) On the topic of pking, I had a question about Poison Fang. I know that I can use the skill in Tiger Form, and then go to human keeping the effect, but is the extra damage it adds noticeable in pvp?

3) Approaching level 79 here, and I was looking at the awesome skills you get. Untamed Wrath, and Violent Triumph. I know they are a pain in the **** to get, and a dumptruck of cash, but are any of them worth getting right at level 79? They both seem very useful and powerful.

4) I've been taking a look at the HH80 armor, and I was wondering if its worth investing the coin to get the gold mats. I level rather slowly, so a set of HH80 Gold would last me a long time, but I'm wondering if its even worth it in the first place.

Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks. b:victory

    1: i never had any XS axes, but if you feel you lose too much hp id defenitely craft the polehammer mold, its a bit better in pve anyways (higher attk rate etc)

    2: extra damage is extra damage... never tested it though

    3: personally i dont think theyre worth it, but since you seem to be on a pvp server the violent triumph is probably worth getting if you can.

    4: this is all dependant on your wallet, just like topic nr 3
    If you have the cash, time, and whatnot to get the 80 gold, id say do it. its defenitely better then the green 80, but its a lot of work for a slightly better armor, so you gotta decide for yourself if you think its worth it

    Gold HH armor, leggings and footwear give you about +15 vit = more hp = better tank/pvp.

    The price on Harshlands is ridiculously high atm. you should try to farm for as much as you can. And use your box chips to get the gold mats for the armor (you pay 360k for them with 17 mysterious chips instead of 1.5-1.8mill, which is the price range on Harshlands).

    Also, the footwear may not be worth getting because the gold mats for it costs about +2.5mill a piece.

    And the normal/green HH80 wrist guards is actually a lot better than the HH80 gold wrist guards, the green give you the same +5~6 vit as the gold but also +6~7 str and +6~7 dex (add a little more dex than equipment requirement and you will get 60 dex = 1% more crit).

    I'd rather get thunderbolts and seeing as your almost lv 80, just use em for a few levels and make hh80 golds.
