[3.10] Sovyn's Lazy Pally - Tanky Templar with Max Block
" More consistent damage possibly with ele focus but no shock. Possible higher burst damage with maim. Either one is just fine. |
|
" I don't see 85% to 90% chance to hit as a noticeable thing at all. Maybe while leveling it dropped off a bit. What is your number on offence tab? You can take precision and/or versatility a bit early if you want (they are on uber tree) as these are pretty solid damage nodes. Last edited by Sovyn#2637 on Jan 2, 2019, 3:01:33 PM

" Belly would give you a few hundred more life, may or may not make the difference but it all helps. DPS will be noticably lower. I would suggest taking MoM early and keep mana reservation to just hatred only or even just herald of purity until high level mapping. Keep plenty of unreserved mana. Taking the leech nodes early can't hurt also. |

" I chose the suggested damage nodes as the best dps for the points. Probably won't do better other than some big bucks rare jewels. There is a new option when you add a skill like LS to your attack bar to always attack without moving, it should be there in xbox version but unsure as I don't play xbox. LS damage is lower than blade flurry or molten strike. Might try blade flurry if you want some range with good damage. LS is quite a drop off, but you can stand way back. Good for hardcore or high levels where dying is not an option. (Of course you still have to watch out for a few things) Shield charge is OK, there is maybe a little more delay vs whirling blades, not ideal for Atziri and the like IMO, otherwise good. Don't expect to keep fortify up all the time. You can't run two curses unless you have an item with +1 curse, additional curse. |

Thank you so much for clarifying and for getting back so quickly!

" It's sitting at 87% accuracy right now after taking both Precision and Versatility. I suppose it's more noticeable to me as the last several melee builds I've done took Resolute Technique. Other than that, build is fine but I haven't gotten to maps yet. Gearing is a bit of an issue but I think I solved my weapon and am just messing around with different skills right now to see what feels right. |

I am a little confused about counter attacks.
I am using 4 link reckoning, curse on hit, enfeeble, blind. I have also been wanting to use another available 4 link for a different counter-attack and don't know what would be more complementary. From your build, it appears that you are linking 2 counter attacks in the same 4 link. Is this better? If I use another 4 link on another piece of gear will it work with vengeance or riposte? What support gems would be recommended. I have been trying to research counter attacks and their supports and I am not very clear about them working together and how to do it. EDIT: Will try riposte-ven-etc.. as listed in the build guide. Last edited by Caurlann#0900 on Jan 3, 2019, 3:03:59 PM

" You can use two together, they just hit based on conditions, like if YOU take a hit, or if you block, etc. You can really only use one of each kind however. The three main things you can do with them are curses as you know, leech, or stuns/endurance charges. Last edited by Sovyn#2637 on Jan 3, 2019, 4:24:25 PM
