How much Attack speed is enough or is there never enough? Also I got a 6 socket sacred Labyrs. Anything I should do before crafting on it?

Breakpoints: Labrys attack speed fpa/ias - 10/63, 9/92, 8/147, 7/280; hit recovery frames/FHR: 4/86, 3/200

You only care about this for earthquake clear, since sor has cooldown. For different base weapons, check speedcalc.

As for comparing this to WW build, it is quite different, WW carries high damage hits as well, it uses SOR as support, but you still hit with ww and that damage is not neglible, you have deadly strik to ww, all the small ww passives. Sor still is majority of the dps as far as I know.

charged strike oskill, but then without heart of stone because it is pure lightning

Btw you can kill it with sor, hit&run, once and wait. Takes a while but it is killable. Just not trophy farming material.

Is AR even needed for ES? The shockwave and aftershock hit-chance is still based on AR?

How about SoR? Hit-chance of the rock fall is based on AR as well?

These skills have an AR stat in the attributes window so yeah, you need AR for them

so unlucky, i've just rolled more than 200 and can't get that 300 max damage, so i decide to use Yaggai's Sagaris, is it good as the shrined one?

proc will deal 0 damage with heart and stone
we discussed endgame weapon few pages ago

Also if you had this weapon, it is still better than craft because of sheer flat damage on it. Look at AVERAGE damage, not max damage. If you roll craft with 120 min damage (that adds min and max because minnimal damage can't be lower than max in d2, so its same as rolling 240 max damage).

If you mean from all trophies, then probably uldyssian, for 6% deadly strike.

Cheap/easy to get ones TA is decent:

Tran Athulua Trophy
100% Bonus to Attack Rating
+750 to Attack Rating
Physical Damage Reduced by 50

750 flat ar is equal to 15 base levels in ancient blood worth of AR, pretty substantial. Ale if your hit chance vs late bosses is in 80-90% gain from this AR is likely gonna outweigh even 6% deadly strike.
