Hi all , I finally got my dream weapon for fury druid : eth tomb reaver 3 sockets...I already put a Zod in it and im wondering what should be put in the two remaining sockets...

First question : What is the max frame for a fury druid
Second : what should I socket in those 2 sockets

Shael Shael ? Ed / ias ed / ias ?

max fury is 4 fpa, which requires 100 ias on a Cryptic Axe

Since it has a base of 60 ias, ShaelShael is the socketing you'll want.

Actually it looks like a made a whoopsies! I forgot to include the werewolf lvl and the ias it grants!

If you have lvl 30 wolf ed/ias jewels will hit 4 fpa fury. Keep in mind, this means you'll need to prebuff with those skillers EVERY TIME you shift to keep that 4 fpa attack with the ed/ias'd tombreaver. Since its a much better option to be using damage charms, maybe you should use the calc to find out when you hit 4 fpa with exactly 90 ias.

Either that, or go for a full out prebuff with 10 x skillers and skill gear, and then completely switch gear once you've shifted with a level 40+ werewolf/lycanthropy. It depends on how much time you want to spend pre-buffing before every duel.

Anyways, my bad before, ED/Ias jewels will hit 4 fpa as long as you make sure you have the appropriate Werewolf skill level.

wolf druids only take the ias from the weapon and from werewolf level.

Listen to the pros in the druid forum on diabloii.net

2 shaels will get you absolute fastest speed.
2 ed/ias jewels will get you the same speed, but with one frame slower initial attack, which, like they said, is really insignificant. Ed/ias jewels would be better because they add more dmg.
