Well, Both of them are offensive DW builds and used GD stash.
Piercing is better because:
- Generally bosses had less resistant, even though piercing RR generally less than cold.
- Easily stack cunning over 2100. Thus tons of piercing damage bonuses and OA.
- Having about 1.5~ 2 times flat damage than cold because of green affixes.
- ~800 armor and 15% physical res ahead. Alkamos ring set much worse than these:
plus, cut throat and Dranghoul, you may use in amulet, medal and belt as well.
Sorry for the grimtool links, I don’t wanna be blamed for possible future nerfs. Finally, mad lee’s no green version is OP already.
