Barbarian Spiritist`s Hammer
Skill: 2H Blunt Atk Delay: 43 DMG: 22 WIS: +13 INT: +13 Effect: Winter's Roar (Combat, Casting Time: Instant) at Level 30 Poison Wind Censer Skill: 2H Blunt Atk Delay: 28 DMG: 20 STR: +5 SV POISON: -30 Effect: Gale of Poison (Combat, Casting Time: Instant) at Level 50 You would want to go with the Barbarian Spiritist`s Hammer, if you can find someone selling it? I tried looking for this hammer when I was updating/upgrading my equipment and it's something not commonly sold. But based on the two items, the Hammer will work out best because it will cast at 30 instead of 50. The dot will do more at 30 then the dot at 50. The +13 WIS will help your mana. Sure, the Poison Wind Censer will hit faster but who really wants a negative 30 in poison just to use it? | ||

I would be very surprised if the BHS does more damage than PWC between 30 and 49 because of this difference in base melee damage, it's posssible but unlikely. And once the PWC starts proccing, there is nothing better vs mobs with a large enough hit box to be outside the proc range. | |||

PWC is useless really as the aoe damages you as much as the mobs. sad but true. needs a poison resist of 286 tro use effectively.
tbh the best item for shm is the spear REIF.,,,paired up with a good shield eg http://wiki.project1999.com/Orb_of_the_Infinite_Void (if you can get one) if ur cash strapped the scourge hammer is cheapest and comonest. procs 30, not as brutal os the other tho....

The AoE hits YOU, if you are in range. Against Giant sized mobs, you're outside of the AoE range and don't get hit. | |||

And remember it is a Rain, not an actual AoE. Vs single targets you get 366 damage (if no resists) each time it procs. And the procs can overlap, so you don't waste damage like with DoTs. | |||

`Against Giant sized mobs, you're outside of the AoE range and don't get hit.`
thats a good tip! i only tried it out on human sized mobs...think it was guards in FP. so actually a useful weapon in velious!

I used PWC all my shams life, until it procced.
I found getting hit by the proc to annoying, as it's not often I'm fighting monsters with large hitboxs. Mostly it's normal mobs and the proc hit me, which is hp that could of been used to canni Imo - PWC is better to level with, hits way faster! But once it procs I would sell it. It's not the awesome proc that people think it is. Unless you're levelling on Giants only I guess?
