so seriously no nodes for Atq Speed ?

anything for Atq speed ?

Only buying weapons for 1.90 ?


You can go for as much attack speed as you want. Just look for the tradeoff in PoB damage wise and decide for yourself if you want to do it.
Looks like the market for Ahn's Might is hip to this build, lol. Lowest price one on Poetrade atm is 8c.

Edit from 12. Jun: For everyone who wants to switch to Swords as soon as possible for the faster Playstyle compared to Ahn's Might, here are two additional Trade Links:

260pdps+, 1.8aps+, 6%+ crit
290pdps+, 1.8aps+, no crit bonus

The prices currently start at around 10-15c. I personally wouldn't spend more than 40c for a slightly better Weapon than Ahn's Might. If you don't find a good one immediately just wait a little bit.

The first link will more likely show good results which are equal to Ahn's Mights. The second one lacks crit but tries to compensate this with higher phys. But that won't be enough in most cases to be as good as Ahn's Might. There has to be another good stat on them to be as good. But nevertheless i wanted to provide the second link too. There maybe can be found some good swords sometimes which you would miss otherwise.

How to check if the new Sword is worth it's price




then ctrl+v in PoB Item Section





Now you can see how good it is compared to Ahns Might. If you find something that's equal or slightly better - that's good enough for that early in the league

Notice: Either use the PoB Link from this Guide to compare the Weapons. Or, if you use your own, make sure you have at least 700 Accuracy on your Gear. Ahn's Might provide a hugh amount of Accuracy. If you don't have at least 700 on your other gear, your hit chance will be so bad that every other sword you'll try in PoB will be worse than Ahn's Might


Tried this and got a massive DPS Loss.. I even added 400 more accuracy with helmet.. still 30% lower than the Ahn's... its weird

I didn't said that every sword there will be as good as Ahn's Might. There can and will be swords that are as good - like the one on the picture. If i would limit the search as much to make sure they are always better as Ahn's Might, there would only be 1ex+ Foils and you would miss a lot of cheaper similar good offers.



Thats another example of a good one:


and another one:


non-Foil example:

The Jewel exists. And in PoB it's the item where i've put the Ascendancy Damage from Chieftain to it because otherwise PoB wouldn't consider it.

Same here ... I'm even having a hard time finding swords better than my Scaeva's. Just for fun, I pasted some sword selling for 1ex and it showed a DPS decrease. What am I doing wrong?

Try to copy this weapon and look how the damage would be:





Rarity: Rare
Horror Hunger
Corsair Sword
--------
One Handed Sword
Physical Damage: 69-208 (augmented)
Elemental Damage: 30-57 (augmented)
Critical Strike Chance: 6.80% (augmented)
Attacks per Second: 1.94 (augmented)
Weapon Range: 11
--------
Requirements:
Level: 58
Str: 81
Dex: 117
--------
Sockets: R R R
--------
Item Level: 78
--------
40% increased Global Accuracy Rating
--------
Adds 17 to 31 Physical Damage
Adds 30 to 57 Fire Damage
25% increased Attack Speed
36% increased Critical Strike Chance
+28% to Global Critical Strike Multiplier
87% increased Physical Damage (crafted)
--------
Note: ~price 30 chaos



If it's a good dps increase (should be 10-20%, depending on the roll of your Scaeva), than you just have to find the right sword.
