[2.0.3] Blackdepp's 2H Mace AoE Marauder (easy, cheap, strong)

Bumping this for a great build and a great OP!

Thanks again, BDepp!!

Thank you very much (: I appreciate that

I have a 6L Marohi Erqi laying in my stash, would this weapon be viable considering the AOE explicit increases mana cost?

Guys, probably some of you already made a comparison of Marohi Erqi with 250% phys dmg to any other 2H 500-550+ PDPS weapon. So the question is there any point of using such perfect marohi instead of really good 500-550 PDPS mace/stave?

The point is the extra AoE

Thx Cap, but i've been asking about overall efficiency.

Gotta compar the mana costs. For Sweep a Marohi works very well, however with the elemental skills you might run into some mana problems due to less phys leech. But with a Cornal Maul base and the passive aoe your aoe should be big enough. Besides that a rare mace can be so much stronger than a marohi.

Thanks for the reply, I just wanted to see your view on it considering I already have one. Mana is a problem slightly, but I'm hitting so hard most mobs explode on the first swing. I am using infernal blow but am considering static strike because of shock stacks.

How much sweep DPS will I gain by linking fortify or added fire to sweep-faster attacks-multi strike-melee physical damage? I've been using fusings on my belly of the beast armor to try and get a 5 or 6 link, but have been unsuccessful so far in 50 fusings so I'm stuck with 4 links. My damage right now is around 12k with lvl 17/18 gems and full frenzy charges.

This is my first character I've made since starting less than a month ago. I've had a blast playing so far, but I am to the point that I really need to upgrade my gear to continue being viable in Merciless.

By the way, thanks for this guide!

Carcass Jack works really well with this build, Sweep in particular :

Increased AOE, increased AOE damage
