This is my hally...
There are many others like it, but this one is mine. I have to say, I love it. It may not be the best one in the world, but it's pretty awesome to me. In fact, while you're reading this, I'm probably out leveling it. I'm going to wait until it's 100 with no points spent (it's looted so it will have 495 points) so my question to you is WWUDWMY (What would you do with my hally?). How would you spend the points? Relay it to one handed? Change the wep type? Would you sell it? How much would get you to part with it? This is a blank canvas, but I'll give you my personal situation. At present, I'd say I'm mid tier. I have 3 relayers (kilt, sash, SOT shirt). I have 304 hps unbuffed and about 10 mil in the bank. For me, this could be a big step toward relayer number four, or this could be my wep for a very long time. Is it once in a blue moon or should it be parted with on my way to bigger and better things. I gratefully await your opinions...


Re: This is my hally...
my personal opinion and remember these are just suggestions since weapons should be customized to your playing style:
1) DONT make it into a relayer, since it does not have 1 useful stat that will carry over (except for damage increase, but with 3 relayers, i'm sure you have it nearly capped if not capped already)
2) Regarding spending points, i see several scenarios:
a) making it into a nice aoe whirlwind wep, by adding aoes to around 25% each, the others can stay at 46% or 50% (i have the same weapon if you want me to show you mine and what i did)
b) making it a 6x50 and adding lightning and mana leech for a higher dps weapon but less useful for champs
i would possibly refrain from adding dex (since you will cap it with relayers and will need the spending points) and possibly also str and hp increase since this is not an endgame dps weapon (since it has an area). it can however make a really nice champ aoe weapon. I think these are things to think about and certainly listen to other's opinions.

Re: This is my hally...
Thanks Alex! I will pm you to take a look at your hally. Indeed, it wouldn't make sense to turn this into a relayer and I think it makes good sense to turn into a champ wep. I look forward to hearing other suggestions.
Re: This is my hally...
I agree with alex, that would make a nice champ weapon for sure.

Re: This is my hally...
I'd add an aoe (i like cold or energy personally), and lightning as high as possible.
Halberd is perfect for aoe champ weapon.
Some people prefer 2 aoes at 25%, id rather have one at 50%. Personal preference.
I'd also throw a SR5 on there, and maybe a spell channel deed (not really needed, just convenient. sometimes)
You could make it one handed, if you want it to be your end game aoe weapon, but again, mostly convenience.

Re: This is my hally...
Thanks Fier and Asmo! Seems like consensus is an AOE/champ wep. Asmo, you mentioned 50 area affect over multiple 25s, why do you prefer this approach?
Re: This is my hally...
Sell it. HLD has no use being on a WW weapon so unless you change it to a War hammer, for using more DMG per use of a direct hit and a ww weapon (which really 25% of things on direct damage is useless). As a Hally HLD really has no use because 99 percent of monsters you plan to do WW on will not need to have their DCI lowered as you will hit them every time with 120/130 fighting skill. But if you don't care that it has a hit being wasted, keep it and add 25 lightning, harm, an area and some stam leech, or just another area. Don't forget to put 8 str on it.
Do not waste time for unused hits.
