I was thinking since the two enchants give me a +29 max damage boost it would be good to do an all out raising of min damage. My guild mates have told me since I have an 80% balance rate though that I should just keep bumping the max damage. What are your guys's thoughts???

Clearly if you're using untamed barbarian, you want the most bang for your buck. Then I suggest you burn that shi't and enchant it on a claymore.

If memory serves, a 2h sword will only get 78 max damage through upgrades, as a claymore will get 92. The 2h sword is the superior ego, but in this case, as an enchanted weapon, it is not.

hmm I have incredibly horrible luck burning things. I paid 200k for the barbarian 2h and 75k for the enchant. I'd really hate to burn away 275k for another 14 points of damage >_<; Thank you for the advice though. If I ever need another powerful 2h I'll enchant it on a clay next time ^_^

Ah, alright then. I'd say go for the max possible damage then, which turns out to only be 72 ._.

20 point difference~ Which is equivalent to 50 str (Just doing some basic math.)

Oh, and the max damage upgrade path will kill 5 durability, which you probably already knew, but you can recover 4/5 of that durability with a gem upgrade ^^

Just wait for Dustin sword to come out, which MAY be in the next update or 2. You do know Barbarian is a bridge for Destruction enchant? You can at least get more damage from that and have a chance at getting 26 max damage from that enchant alone.

 As for your first question, why would you think about anything else other than max damage? If your str is high enough, the min/max damage gap would be too far apart anyways.

   We're not only talking about the damage here, we're also talking about critical rate. Barbarian adds critical rate. 2h has undeniably low critical compared to claymore. If you choose 202-3 for claymore, you'd receive a good damage (90max) PLUS critical rate(23%). While on the other hand, the 2h can only reach at most 50max damage only that has 20~26critical.

202-3 Low Balance Requires High DEX

Elen's Claymore Enhancement 90 / 38,700G

Blade Edge Sharpening 20 / 2,000G

Blade Refinement 3 20 / 15,000G

Blade Refinement 4 30 / 20,000G

Blade Refinement 5 42 / 25,000G

Attack 18-90 Critical 23% Balance 22% Durability 8 202 / 100,700G

   I'd rather use a thief or healer to bridge for Destruction...

True, but he happens to have the bridge on his sword already. I just suggested he might as well.

hmm siren hardmode huh >_<; If anybody get's their hands on this enchant I'll buy it off of them for 300k. I don't really desire the enchant enough to spam siren hardmode for it myself though lol

   ORRRR... You can just buy another sword and use a thief/healer on it? Untamed is not a big problem. Barbarian is quite a drop so I'd rather not waste it.

 Indeed. Since it's rare and adds crit, I'd rather make a lizard barbarian masamune.. you can go to as much as 65% crit with the max-crit upgrade path, if I'm not mistaken.

 Anyways, to answer OP's question, just burn the 2 hander with a r1 enchanter and enchant the barbarian on a claymore /  DB.

You can go as high as 90+ max damage with them(check wiki for the upgrade paths). Don't forget to put Untamed on your choice of weapon.

EDIT: for the first time, I saw and used the elusive nexon forums edit button!!! wheeee~
