Would this be accepted in FSP?

Can Tank? Yes, with any decent cleric.

Can hold aggro? Nope. Any S3R9 or high refine G16 will just rip aggro off you, until u upgrade your axe. But you can always ask the dd-ers nicely to hold off their damage on toad boss. There will always be someone who can tank the other bosses. I dont think anybody would refuse to take a barb anyways; that's because their buffs already make a big difference.

Little hint: Get Nirvy G15 with GoF or T3 and refine to around +5 at least(and even then you can't keep aggro from any R9rr, hardly from T3+10 casters unless you're better barb than 95% of barbs out there). And for tanking purposes get some elemental ornaments and HA-boots+wrists. That elem. res. sucks. APS-barb without actual tanking gears gives bad name for APS-barbs.

And shard those gears. With that shard replacement-thingie at PW Boutique Agent there's no proper reason to go shardless these days.

Slaying level +60 vs Atk Lvl +40. For pure PVE, the morai weapon is better.

True, you have a lower base damage - but since it's a G15 axe, you can use the free orbs you get from leveling up to boost that axe as far as +7 for minimal costs (bound and <G16 required). And rerolling it for good stats before upgrading them doesn't cost a whole lot...

If you want a cheap barb that'll hold aggro at Frog, the Morai axe isn't a bad choice. It is better then Nirvana G15... almost on par with G16.

Unless he is getting a G16 axe in the end or something better, it would be wasteful to use the 6* and 7* bound orbs you get from the leveling-up chest on that morai axe. They can be used on G16 just as well, even on R9.

@OP: your current built will quite literally not hold aggro in FSP, even spamming every aggro skills it will take only one G16+7 DD class to crit and aggro's gone. Maybe with a 2min headstart they could start attacking without sparking but still, very advisable to get the weapons discussed here first or have some extreme luck with FSP squad that let's you take aggro for 2min. (there are always morons who attack before barb even used a flesh realm b:surrender)

I don't know howfar you are with your weekly shards, but I'd suggest to put some cheap replacement shards in there (even if only the +25 hp shards which are 60k coins ea) as it will help a lot for a very small investment. Once you have your weekly shards talk to the PWI Boutique agent (I think?NPC next to banker in West) to replace your shards for the weekly ones.

Point was i won't shard anything until i can get the morai exclusive shards and incomparables from weeklies.What is that shard replacement thingie you're talking about.And still,how weak are G15 morai axes compared to G16?

pvp targets, the g16 wins Hands down every time, and every attack.

G16 vs g15 Morai in terms of pvm though, it is very close.

i had g16 axes refined to + 7 and Hellfire's refined to + 4.

Auto attacks on the g16 do more damage, it is around 20% more damage. ( would be less if refines were equal)

However... Armageddon
i sundergeddon for just over 1 mil damage with the Hellfires, and g16 doesn't come anywhere close to this.

Also the HellFires might be a good choice for you since you can very easily roll 3 x Vit / Hp bonus on them.
As your Hp is very low.

Those free orbs can not be used on G16 stuff. The description clearly states the equipment level is demanded -under- level 16. Unless that description is false then G16 gear cannot be upgraded using those (and please let me know if that's the case...)

Under means "<=" so it works

Are you sure about that, Zoldi?

Totally. I used them on my sin's NV3 weapon and on my barb's NV3 armor. Also said to some guildmates to do tje same and it worked for all of them. It works also for NW reforge items and probably for R9.3 if you bind it.

personally, if i were going for an aps build on a barb without dipping into rank gears and rerolls etc.. I would build something like: http://pwcalc.com/2ff3fe362f3180f7

the whole purpose of building dex is to wear fists/claws and the whole purpose of doing that is to maximize damage output, so I took the 50 vit out of the build and moved it to STR. I took a few points out of dex as well and allocated them to str - as I statted the build to wear a pair of striking dragons. The current setup shown is a bit more expensive (namely the pan gu creator) but allows for 3.33 aps which is perma-sparked on a demon barb (useless for fsp, but will be nice for soling TT runs for example). The extra str allocation and a g16 pole with +40 attack levels combined with a jones blessing and the attack level from g14 cube neck will go a long way with holding aggro. Overall with the ornament change - much better defenses. refines and shards will make it less squishy HP pool wise.
