I have yet another question....and hopefully someone out there can help me. I have a Max Gold Spartha of Deathbane 18% (undead). I was just wondering what sword hilt i should put on it that would kill or damage the undead creatures more. Fire, cold, ebon???? which hilt does considerable aomunt of damage to undead?

You wouldn't be looking for a hilt; Judge's Insight changes your damage type to Holy, which does double damage versus undead.

Yeah the only damage type as far as i know that hurts undead more is Holy (for obvious reasons).

Need to find myself a +20% undead mod for a bow.

Dragos Bow + FW + Winno + Judges Insight + Savage Shot = Upto 250 damage to Skeletal Icehand in FoW
Pretty impressive for a single attack

if you can't pack Judges (which if your facing undead would be perfect, unless they can shatter) use firey.

But doesnt Winnowing only trigger on Physical damage....? Which you aren't dealing under JI.

FYI, winnowing does not trigger when using JI because it's doing holy damage. Also, you'd be much better off using Barrage since it does + to damage and hits up to 6 enemies instead of concentrating damage on just one foe. <3 PvE

The best wepon against the undead is... A SMITING MONK

or Judges Insight on a already deadly axe or other wepon

Phoenix Arrows · Apr 10, 2006, 05:42 AM // 05:42

Get an Axe, Vampiric 3:1, Cyclone Axe, Judge's Insight, and anything else like Signet of Strength (GW:F). Then, aggro a bunch of Undead, and use Cyclone Axe ^^. Don't forget Axe Grip of Deathbane 20% ^^.

widowdaballa · Apr 10, 2006, 07:58 AM // 07:58

Since you're using sword, use a vampiric hilt (3:1 would be perfect). This is if your using a W/Mo, in which case you can pack Judges' Insight, like others have said already. If your not W/Mo, you can switch to a firey, or maybe even icey would be good. It would be nice if you could try to salvage the grip of Deathbane so that you could apply it to a sword with +15% dmg (>50% health, while in stance, or enchanted). You could also customize it for an extra 20% dmg. That would total up to +53% dmg!! Use THAT with Judge's Insight for some beautiful dmg numbers!

JI all the way on undead. Add your deathbane, dont forget to customize for additional 20%, and whatever other mod... 15^50, enchanted etc. My ranger does this, JI-penetrating attack(single guy) or barrage on groups, with a Dragon Horn Bow. Got to get all the extra punch if you truely want to do it.
