You can see I have no main hand weapon showing. As such my stats, unbuffed but with the enchantress, are:
44% crit hit chance
269% crit hit damage
7000 armor
766 LoH
0 Life Steal
With my budget, I see weapons of about 1050-1150 DPS with the possibility of only one or two primary stats. I can get med/high 60-70% crit damage or 400+/- LoH or maybe strength/vitality and a little of something else.
I was even considering a might weapon for the fury bonus, rather than an axe/mace.
My offhand does provide a nice stat balance for me, and I still have an empty slot there.
I'm leaning toward maximizing my LoH; with the weapon and gem, I could get to 1500 LoH. Or I could pump more into crit damage, but a high vitality/strength instead couldn't hurt survivability ... right? BTW, I'm a 'conservative' WW'er ... I take a section at a time, not one to run to the end of the ramparts in 45 seconds (although I'd love to be able to).
For weapons anything that seems like a small difference can actually be a big one. You really have to do the math to figure out what would make sprint do the most damage.
Ignore LOH on your main hand. You don't need it and at an equal budget it'll lower your damage by a lot. 800 LOH is more than enough, especially if you have life steal too. Just get enough resists and/or armor so your LOH is effective enough.

Would you consider a Mighty Weapon over a Mace/Axe?

I would think the synergy between Weapon Master/Mighty Weapon and Wrath/Thrive would more than offset the Weapon Master/Mace 10% crit chance going from 44% to 54% unbuffed
Hello your gear is very good but I think that get some LL makes for you a huge difference, specially if you choose to swap In to the fray rune for Marauder´s Rage on Battle Rage and Revenge for WotB + Insanity rune. With this 2 chanes and a belt with LL + ofhand with LL you can get a very good amount of life regeneration during the fights. Hope that you can find my post useful.
Thanks ... I am still experimenting with a melee build rather than my long-standing WW, but I'll look into Life Steal. I'm finding using rend, leap and revenge to be an awesome combination.

He right.

Wish i could afford/find rings/amulets like that.
