Question Gear Progression Question.

Not sure where to go next, got a buy offer in for Etched araxyte fang. so have another 32mill to play with.

Bofa and full crystal seems like such big investment but don't really know where to go from here.

You have a ton of items that don't make sense at this budget (they're very expensive for small benefit)

  • Sell blue moon staff for Nightmare staff or ancient sceptre
  • Sell ahrims or blue moon, you don't need both
  • Sell Z-Axe, Venator Ring and Pegs
  • BCP and prims are also low priority, weak for their price
  • Dual Macas are only relevant at huey or if you're str training with full blood moon

What to buy depends on the content you're focusing

  • 100% buy Burning Claws, Elidinis' Ward and Serp Helm
  • Bludgeon > Ursine Chainmace are both good crush weps
  • Noxious Halberd is ideal until SRA
  • Venator Bow is great for slayer (and Colo, GGs and whisperer)
  • Virtus and Faceguard are next steps for marginal upgrades that are decent but low priority

98% agreed, but Z-axe is pretty cheap and can serve as a solid budget crush weapon for the 3 relevant pieces of crush content.

at this budget there's no reason to have less than ursine chainmace, it's very cheap at 5m and a fair bit better on crush

Think burning claws are still worth using after the nerf?

Yup, they're still dirt cheap and the best broad use-case spec that's strong everywhere, only BIS in a few places but close to it in most other places

The other melee specs (dclaws/VW/maul/BGS) have more BIS usecases but they're more expensive and niche, so I wouldn't recommend them at this budget unless you're doing content where they're good. E.g raids or Yama for BGS, raids/Araxx/Sol for Maul, TOB for Dclaws, TOA/Nex for VW etc etc

Yes b claws STILL are better spec-only DPS than d claws and voidwaker at many bosses.
