Looking For a different build? Hereâs a Compendium with Tons!
One other question, on the Ending the Storm timeline, youâve got âWard When Hitâ â isnât this better served by shred lightning resist, one other layer in addition to shock to tearing down resistances?
Hi, really nice guide. I was wondering why the lootfilter shows shield and not polearm? Just because is the default one for Paladin?
Thank for the hard work, keep going!
Loot filter is also missing 5 sentinel specific affixes in the top filter, included added lightning damage to javelins Definitely recommend people go through the loot filter and make sure itâs fitting their needs.
OHHH ok let me see if I understand correctly: the cold damage from 30-something dex (letâs say it was 32 because I donât recall exactly) gets added to the skill.
The skill is lightning, throwing and critting so youâre already scaling with lightning damage, throwing damage, crit chance/muliplier.
SO, since youâre already scaling elemental damage, throwing damage, and crit damage, the added 32 cold flat damage from the boots is scaled by the same stuff youâre already scaling with for the skill.
Javelin also converts all added damage to lightning, so the cold gets converted to lightning (Divine throws) and gets scaled with all the lightning stuff
I wanted to ask does Mourningfrost kinda double dip here ? the flat cold gets applied at 100% to throwing attacks and to melee damage, then the 20% added melee damage from polearms also adds the flat cold at 20% again ?
Edit: Ok so it used to but now doesnât after 0.8.3b patch. Since itâs gonna be only polearm damage now, I wonder if 1h(rune hammer for + 1) + shield may be better ?
Also btw if you really want leech and donât mind the dps loss, can swap Liârakaâs claws for Avarice until you get the blessing.
I have found Prism Wraps to be great while farming for the throwing leech blessing⌠some DPS to offset the loss of dex/crit, and mitigating the fire disadvantages from jewelry affixes. I think you lose less in this swap compared to using Avarice.
@boardman21 When leveling with this build, after I put 20 points into sentinel, should I go and invest in Paladin first, or does the 10 points in âAbyssal Enduranceâ more important, and I should invest in them first?
