opinions?

[unknown]

well i wanna make a new PvP paladin built solely for fighting against barbarians and other melee classes, tell me what you think

stats
120-150 Str
100-150 Dex
120 Vitality
energy untouched

skills
20 FoH (this the main attack)
20 Thorns (melee attackers will get a kick out of this, specially those ww'ers)
10 Smite (defensive melee attack)
20 Conviction (.....)
10 Fanatiscm (switch over to this aura when using smite)
20 Holy Shield (raises defense ratings by a bunch)
10 Holy Bolt (boast up FoH damage)
5 Defiance (boast up Holy Shield defense rating)

Holy Bolt doesn't increase FOH damage. It increases the damage of the holy bolts it creates
(which only damage undead monsters)

Also, melee classes tend to have LOTS of resistance and absorb. You'll have a hard time using thorns AND FOH to kill them. I would just stick with an FOHer. When I played Diablo, I had one of the best FOHers on Useast Ladder. Stick with him and you can't really go wrong.

EDIT : Also, Conviction reaches its max -150 res when it reaches level 25. Figure out your final gear and configure it to that. You should only need about 10 points on conviction if you do it right.

phoers are retarted, all u do is namelock.

will when i was bored with my older pal. i maxed the Thorns and it killed most of the players attacking instantly this is how i got this idea

[PantallicA]

I think you're the retarded one, flamin.

It's FOHers, and retarDed. Plzkthx.

EDIT : Unknown, it's not a horrible idea. Why not screw around with a poison-based character like an assassin and use the thorns on Bramble instead?

A long time ago, I made a ninja star assassin. Use a botd thundermaul and venom and you'll rape hardcore. Just cast venom, toss bramble on and fire away. You'll be doing 7k per ninja star (they fire 3-4 per second) and if someone hits you with melee, they'll take a ton of damage. Just another fun build you can try out if you're bored.

mind sending the needed info on that to me through PM?

[PantallicA]

No. I can post in here all I like. I can't get in trouble.

I was going to make a guide a long, long time ago... but I never got around to it. When I played, I used my insane riches to make all kinds of weird characters that no one else would... and they raped.

IE : Fire Trap Assassin, Ninja Star Assassin, "Telemental" Sorceress... all kinds of cool stuff.

i've done this myself, mostly with the druids, barbarians, and paladins for the fun of it. most where bad and only like 2 were good

btw trap assassins are cheap, i think they are so unfair for PKing but they are good

[PantallicA]

Fire Trappers are very different. You can't shoot across the screen with a fire trap

[unknown]

true but traps are traps. so wheres that guide

[PantallicA]

It doesn't exist. Trial and error is what worked for me. You should try it.

[unknown]

sure will thanks, imma make this paladin the Painadin since it inflicts the pain back.

[LostTrance]

What is that? Build is a mEsS.
