    • @jprec5174
      @jprec5174 4 місяці тому +1

      Ive done the math. 2h ebotd thunder maul is actually the best weapon for vengeance. This is because each elemental damage type is rolled alongside the physical damage.
      The problem with thunder mauls is that huge difference between its min and max damage( something like 258-1390). But because vengeance rolls 4 different damage types you have 4 chances to roll the highest top end melee damage in the game.
      Also because the tmaul has high base phy damage it allows ur phys damage to remain competitive without phys based gear.
      Downside, you need a faith merc.

    @hydroflux1616 4 місяці тому +1

    The defense reduction aspect of Conviction and Inner Sight stacks... so most of what you are fighting has a very low defense which helps a lot. With a high enough Conviction you can actually get most monsters defense down to zero when stacking those two skills. Neat build.

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  4 місяці тому +3

      Bosses are half so you still need some AR to have a good hit rate on bosses.
      Thus the enchant, and nearly 10k AR.
      I also don't like the pulse frequency of Conviction. Many times you will approach a pack and miss miss miss while you wait for conviction to apply on it's own pulse frequency which is 2-3 seconds.

    Man you really outdid yourself with this build Ginger. I am having so much fun with it i got my Paladin to lvl 89 and it is so busted in some places. Thanks for sharing !
    During tougher fights I rely on Conversion heavily. And while we are on this topic I have a question for you cause i don't know if it's a bug or a feature. After I convert an enemy during my Terror Zone runes and he goes back to his "enemy" state...he gets one shotted with anything. Like literally i can kill him with him having full health with my fist. Is this normal? Is this like a weird bug?

    you forgot to mention that the added damage on war travs does not get "converted" to elemental damage on vengeance, only min/max dmg stuff like on charms and jools. Instead of conversion, give merc delirium helmet. I also tend to use rings with dim vision charges, when running builds that does not rely on curses to deal damage

  • @Yostuba
    @Yostuba 4 місяці тому +10

    Gigachad pally's learn after fighting for so long that a shield is pointless. It causes you to do less damage. Be less holy in your fight against the daemon smiting evil from the world. You only use a shield because you are scared in your own ability. Once you control fear and realize nothing can stop you in your holy purge. Then you battle with giant slabs of iron barely held with two hands. A shield holds you back its a crutch, there is no need to block when you turn everything to paste in one hit. Just being around you sets the air on fire lightening to fall from the sky or powerful strange energy radiates from your body. No need to block or have a shield when everything dies/suicides as soon as you look at it.

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  3 місяці тому +1

      I avoided the slow weapons deliberately, the damage output of the Champion Axe is already amazing, and it hits the IAS Breakpoints easily.
      The extra damage you gain from The war pike, or thunder mail just isn't worth the loss in attack speed.
      Vengeance is just so slow already

    I just stole your build idea and respecced my Holy Fire 2h Paladin ( i was running Obedience, worked well but needed lots of LL and DR to truly stay alive on player 3 and 5 where i usually play but it was doable)
    Since i play only Self Found offline and didn't found any Zod rune yet i went with Reaper's Toll. Decrepify for CC, big leech, pretty low req, but the speed is low so i am kinda half way there. Do you had any other ideas for weapon for this particular character?
    Thanks anyway Ginger! What an awesome idea for a build.

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  4 місяці тому +3

      2 handed holy fire huh. Hmmm
      Zeal, Obedience Giant thresher should do it.
      You need String of ears, Crown of ages(Rock stopper budget) Fortitude for defense(budget treachery)
      Double Um rune the coa for resistances.
      Gore riders, and 20% IAS Blood Gloves.
      Giant thresher is your fastest base that can use obedience.

    Silly question, would making a budget auradin and converting monsters add stacking auras on all your converted monsters and burn down packs really fast work? Since they got your thorns, it follows they would get holy shock or fire aura too right? So if you converted 5 monsters with a lvl 20 aura would you temporarily have a level 100 aura or 5 lvl 20 auras? Or does it not work like that?

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  4 місяці тому +1

      Holy Shock & Holy Fire aura only apply to you the paladin and no one else. Not sure where you got the idea they apply to anyone else.
      Yes For Auras that do apply to other people they would also apply to the converted monsters.

  • @edwinjusto5739
    @edwinjusto5739 4 місяці тому +1

    I feel like vengeance could be busted but isn’t cuz of the heavy imposible synergies, they should rework the synergies with this skill so that the synergies come from conviction and salvation at 60 skill points it would give you enough to do a split build like you can with hammerdin or FOTHdin, a vengeance paladin sounds nice but seems annoying to make compared to those other better options, so that would be a nice way to fix the skill and make it viable

    • @GGMentor
      @GGMentor  4 місяці тому +3

      Honestly Vengeance is busted. Having played it on multiple builds 1 handed two handed ect. The damage it outputs completely bypasses all immunities. There is very little like it in diablo that is a Melee Skill that can also apply open wounds, Crushing blow, and doesn't care if your immune to physical, Fire, Lighting, or ice. Instead just cuts right through you like your paper mache.
      Once you actually play a properly Setup Vengeance paladin you start to realize that you are a very powerful character.
      Yeah you don't have the AoE Capability of some other builds, but you practically one shot everything, even elites and bosses go down with the quickness.

    If it goes with the encyclopedic theme of your videos, would not hurt to discuss d2 history. I know you touch on history in unique item deepdives, but if you made videos just on say ladder 1.08, what was the "meta", problems the developers were solving or trying to solve, what the duped item de jour was, if highlights a totally different aspect of d2.
    One thing that was very memorable to me as a kid was when LOD first came out and my friends being much smarter than me were talking about trading items in d2 classic for sojs, and then converting the characters to LOD, because gg rares in classic are worthless in LOD as the latter had exceptional uniques.
    I'm sure you can come up with a better way to present than what I'm putting out here, but a historical account of this game would be a great addition to the encyclopedia that you're creating

      Paladins are melee, not really the best cow level farmers.
      You would be better off focusing on chaos farming using FoH, Hammerdin, or North Star Smiter.
      Most paladin builds will do poorly in cows. Hammerdin can do it, he won't be anywhere near as fast as a lightning javzon or many other classes though.

      The conversion part+thorns is pretty bad but the build itself is pretty cool.
      I tried 2h pally builds before and it never seemed to work. But after watching this build, it made want to try and recreate one and i've found some great success in modifying this build.
      The trick is treachery is a must and then the bis must have helm is Dream.
      Why dream? With treachery your defense is slow low that you're gonna get hit a lot so much so that dream will proc its confuse effect a lot (treachery will always have fade up too). Once everything on the screen is confused its easy to stroll around and one shot everything with an ebotd thunder maul. Dreams adds some decent lightning damage since u already have points in holy shocks synergies.

      You can't use dreams with a 2h paladin one of them is a shield.
      One dream by itself isn't enough to be worthwhile.
      And the conversion Thorns is brilliant, it completely makes the 2H paladin playable in any situation. No matter how stacked the odds are against him.
      Treachery is ok, but Fortitude is better. The real issue with the build is it's lack of defense, and fortitude solves that.

      @@GGMentor the dream is there for the confusion when hit. I mean it also gives you about 3-4k lite damage too so its not like it isnt decent there. If u run treachery your armor will be so low that you're always gonna get hit and it will proc confusion.
      So far the only place the confusion proc sucks is chaos sanctuary where most of those enemies projectiles dont proc it and if u confuse a mage knight they will cast another curse over confusion and life tap.
      Ive already tested the build. Run 1 dream and dracs on p8 you either proc confusion or life tap and either will keep you alive.

      Also lots of monsters are immune to confuse.
      Conversion is one button and you have a distraction.
      Conversion is by far the superior option, it's a 1 point wonder, it's scalable, and works on 99% of monsters.
      You also don't have sacrifice your helmet slot for an inferior item.
      And treachery is a terrible option, for this build. Even with fortitude you still have low enough defense to proc anything on hit.
