Melee Off Hand Stat Sticks.

so i want to do a sunder build, mostly phys and bleeds, with poison as well using the tree and voidheart, not really bothered about ele, but if it scales off phys then i dont see why not. but i want to dual wield for the bonuses, and sunder only uses mainhand. so i have never delved into the world of off hand stat sticks so is there any wizard that knows what out of the bunch of potential options would be best in slot?
thanks Will

I'm no wizard, but I know Death's Hand is a popular stat stick

If you're going crit, then:




If you'll be using ES/CI and want a more defensive option, then:

As sunder you can't use anything but sword, dagger and claw for stat stick. Prismatic Eclipse gives 36% global atk speed on 3 green. Very nice indeed.

Negative. Unlike most skills that alternate weapons when dual wielding, Sunder only ever uses the main hand weapon. So you can have whatever you want in the offhand, even if it could be used for Sunder, it won't be.

Decent for when your build has 'insufficient' mana regen/mana leech, or whilst lvl'ing.



Decent for when you 'just' need attackspeed stacking, but don't mind low dmg on offhand - for sunder with poison/bleed i don't know if this may be a decent option, but it's at least a cheap item to get that can also be used early on.

Other than that, yea i think Death's Hand is a good pick - don't underestimate the chaos dmg conversion buff it gives, just know it of course won't work with non-crit builds using stuff like resolute technique - read more on that here http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Unholy_Might

Advancing fortress is a decent offhand weapon.

You get shield level block out of it as well as the DW bonuses.
As long as you are using skills that only use the main hand or can't be used with claws you are fine.
