New 713pdps 2H RT PVP Axe w/ bleed or block pen & +2 Range

I hit lvl 100 with the Disfavour, and wanted a better weapon and my only option really was the only mirrored axe already in existence. I've already had the Pain Sunder (As you can tell from this link of when I sold it) (878pdps, #1pdps weapon in game).

After some time, I could really feel the +2 range that was missing, so I switched back to the disfavour and, because of the range, it was actually better than the mirrored axe WTF! The only big difference I could tell would be on heavy blockers because I wouldn't fit in as much damage as I used to. Since block penetration nodes were stripped from the passive tree as well, there's not much else we can do against them besides using the Block Chance Reduction Gem.

I was talking to my buddy JimiCui one day while warbands was going on, and he mentioned the only thing we could do would be multimodding a perfect 3modded Vaal axe and put +2 range and block pen on it. Where the hell would I find a perf 3-mod Vaal axe? Well sure enough, my buddy Norse MADE one in warbands (you badass). (Reddit link HERE).


Why not finish it?

The original plan was to get T1 Hybrid/chaos res (or str) once it hit SC, but obviously with ET's going legacy, that didn't turn into a feasible option. Also, in my opinion after using 878pdps weapon in pvp on my L100 char, I think I would rather have block pen than 160pdps. I know on the face of it, it sounds crazy, but I assure you that is how I truly feel.

Also, my buddy Xukai over the course of the entire game tried finishing his own 2H weapon. He used over 300 Eternals and never finished it. Never even got 2t hybrid. With the doing away of ET's, regular players (even ones like us who have been here 3yrs+ and have accumulated SOME wealth) cannot finish mirrorable weapons. It just can't happen anymore, IMO.
