Nope we tested both ways for 10 hours last night. More damage less attack speed ran much smoother

4

Best way to level? I havenā€™t played this class before.

Edit : Found your 1-75 video

Welcome to the community!

Yes that 1 to 75 works great and when you find at least 1 smite idol you can transition

what do you think about doing something similar to your omnividence VK? Still have the smite procs + echos. trying to see what Iā€™d lose out from paladin if I went VK

8

Holy Aura is probably the biggest loss (and it is a big one), but you gain up to 40% chance for all your (non-channelled & non-movement) skills to echo, which is a massive dps & defensive upside (since you do a lot more damage & so can heal more).

And Anomaly. Thatā€™s so awesome it deserves itā€™s own line.

Thanks for the reply, Iā€™m not well versed on the inā€™s and outā€™s of each skill line so figured Iā€™d ask if there was something big I was missing.

Iā€™m currently playing this build and having a blast. I just picked up Culnivarā€™s Claim (lightning damage booster sceptre) and Iā€™m looking forward to using it once I convert Smiteā€™s damage to lightning. The question I have is later on, once I convert Smite to Void, how will all of that damage scale? Iā€™m guessing Iā€™ll need to drop that scepter and pick up something enhancing Void.

11

The adaptive spell damage converts to void. You scale with void damage instead of fire damage.

12

Just curious, since this is a paladin, I cannot choose VK at level 25 or whatever and switch later right? I need to go paladin right off the bat?

Edit - Didnā€™t realize you had multiple leveling guides. OOPSā€¦ haha.

13

Hi @boardman21,

First off thank you for all the great guides really like your style and all the information you include. That being said 1 request that would make your guides even more helpful and possibly a little easier for beginners would be a stats section in the written guide. You touch on it in the Items/Idols section of your YouTube video but I would love to have a simple section in all your guides stat priority maybe top offensive stats and then top defensive stats. Could even include a simple ā€œMust Haveā€ for a few with specific builds.

Thank you and keep up the great work!

Welcome to the community!

I will work in trying to get this implented into my template

15

You need to choose Paladin in the mastery quest, but after that you can put points into the VK/Forge Guard tree immediately if you want.

16

I think there is a problem with the loot filter and I donā€™t know how to fix it, Iā€™ve gone 26 levels without a weapon drop, any ideas?

17

I lied you should be seeing sword sceptre as thats the endgame combo used. Its been updated.
Also all the tier 1 green items got disabled. All fixed now. Thanks for pointing it out! @coldlucidity

This build is awesome, thanks Boardman!

Quick question: does anyone know where to get the relic item? It looks like Fragments of the Shattered Lance is supposed to drop from God Hunter Argentus, but Iā€™ve killed him 7 times in a row now and only gotten the sword. Does the relic require the empowered timeline? Thanks!

20

No, itā€™s likely the 15% chance to drop item from Argentus with the sword being 85%. His Empowered drop is Wings of Argentus.
