PvP zealot what should i use?

[GyuForce]

this is what i have on my guy rite now
botdz 394ed
orphans helm
hoz
enigma
dungos
goreriders
orphans gloves
rf
angelic ring
angelic ammy

would Duress in a 3soc archon (498def) be better than an enigma (1258def) for pvp?
and would a ebotdws be better than my botdz?

[Kingsrookie]

yes on botd but i think enigma is good. by the way cta on weapon switch would be great in pvp

[Silver Ice]

try this setup maybe
ebotd zerk
chamed orphans or cham ber coa
angelic ring ring ammy
phoenix zak maybe
steelrends
verdungoes belt perf % dr
gores

str: enough for gear
deX: enough for max block with holy shield
vit: all rest
energy: none

skills:
max fant, holy shield, sacrifice, zeal.
put 1 point into each prereq.
maybe put a few pts into blessed aim for 5% more ar per lvl (at 17k it would help)
and finish on defiance

inventory: anni+3-20-20s i think helps.

ps: this should be moved to char development

duress > enigma for a zealot. the mods speak for themselves, and enigma's defense is far too low.

ebotdws > botdz in dmg and requirements. if u had an *Ebotdz, then that would be the obvious choice.

the other thing i would do is switch out either HoZ for SS, or ur armor for upgradewd shaftstop. whenever u plan out a zealot setup, start by figuring out how to get 45-50% DR.

if possible, put a cham rune somewhere. either in ur shield or ur helm, so u can switch off a raven frost for another angelic ring.

i'm assuming u're on NL, so i'm not gonna mention any new runewords. things like upgraded shaft came from last ladder season, so u can get that on NL. i'm also assuming u're not especially rich, so i won't speak of 3/20/20's and expensive dupes. for charms, just try to gather fine/sharp/steel charms.

don't worry about resists too much if u focus more on zeal vs melee.
