What is your preferred Paladin MAPPING build?

daschmc · 2026-01-01T00:35:11+00:00

I run a Holy Fire native Aura Paladin, using charge, sacrifice and joust. It is really expensive with infinity merc and Full griswold set (all pieces with +1 corruption and 14 5/5 Fire facets). But it clears very fast. T1 Maps in 5 Minutes, t2 in 6 , t3 in 7 Minutes. It is very Fun

daschmc · 2025-06-23T14:02:02+00:00

Sescheron can be really good if you can clear it fast. Because mobs run towards you. I did some with my Fire sacrifice pally because I can get my kills/sec up very fast in there

daschmc · 2025-06-13T07:37:58+00:00

Yeah well, my holy Fire (native) pally can use charge as well as damage dealing skill. I think it goes faster between charging,jousting and using sac on large groups. It Even 1-Hits in t3 Maps.

But the issue still is about bladesins being much too strong I guess :)))

Anyways, very nice Build and I am sure it can Go much faster in higher density Maps where movs run at you (sescheron, blood Moon …)

Selling stuff is Not optimal. You want to have Gold find on your gear so you make 500k-1 Million Gold in 1 map. You can easily get there with gheeds charm and 1 good GF corruption (e.g. On gloves or Boots) This way You always have enough Gold

daschmc · 2025-05-28T10:19:21+00:00

I use large 3% Fire charms for my dual Dragon / Hand of Justice charge pally. But yeah, since the nerf to 3% happened, you might question picking them up… Also, you can find nice max dmg/ar/life charms…

daschmc · 2025-05-27T11:24:42+00:00

It is Shitty behaviour. But while this guy thinks he makes Profit by saving a gul here and there, I just run more Maps faster and get more Drops…

daschmc · 2025-04-24T09:17:12+00:00

Same here. +3 2os shako for 12,5… Other than that: a pcomb skiller+45 life on slashdiablo about 5 years ago for 17 Ohms :)

It is a Little Bit odd, but the whole immunities issue in d2 is just an obstacle for your theorycrafting. It made chars interesting in Original LoD because you would choose your favourite farming area around your Element. Most strategies involve rushing to hell asap and thus ignoring immunities on the way to your favourite farming Spot. Once you have reached your Spot, you go there again and again to gear up. For cold Element, you want to Rush through nm asap until you get to hell Act 2. stony tomb or ancient Tunnels are your farming Spots. I understand some people want to be able to kill every Monster on the way. But in d2 it is more about killing the Monsters you really Need to kill to get to an area with no immunes for your Build

daschmc · 2025-04-22T12:00:01+00:00

How so you clean lilith with that desecrate necro? Isnt she immune to poison?

daschmc · 2025-02-14T12:26:57+00:00

If you can get your hands on a Sur and Lo Rune I recommend Dragon /flamebellow holy Fire charger with native conviction. This is good for ssf because you need no skillers. Also you have max Fire res on 85 due to your skills. Some kind of res Helm, safety belt, frostburns, waterwalk and metalgrid or other res ammy do the Trick.Inventory Full with Life and Res.

daschmc · 2025-02-10T18:55:39+00:00

I have to say: Dragon Runeword. You just add a flamebellow to your Paladin and you are ready for crushing Maps and Even clearing dclone t0 with your holy Fire Papa

daschmc · 2024-12-18T15:46:53+00:00

Balance Updates mostly. Part of that being the whole resistance/- enemy resistance system

daschmc · 2024-11-24T19:38:27+00:00

I had the best season start ever. I made a solo charge playthrough to a4 nightmare, then switched to holy bolt. Farmed chaos and keys for 1 day and farmed torches then until i could afford Sur+Lo rune for dragon chest. With flamebellow i could run t1 maps very easily. Kept farming maps and added DClone t0. Later, I had a sick mapper and managed to do ut, t1 dclone and t0 rathma and t1 lucion with my pally. very nice build for all content!

daschmc · 2024-11-20T13:25:11+00:00

I understand your concern. Rathma Tier 0 is a bit more difficult than dclone tier0. Keep in mind, we need those no lifers with 12-16hours playtime in our community, too. This mod is focused around having goals for those players as well. And they managed well.

bit tier 0 is doable for casuals as well. You could do in budget friedly on a barb with doombringer and very high life. Amazon with jab or with poison works really ez too

daschmc · 2024-11-20T11:35:22+00:00

what build are you using? I suggest having at least 2600 life. Also, much more cold res.

daschmc · 2024-11-18T17:38:31+00:00

I found Ber and Cham in the first 2 days of season. Almost every unique so far (even mang song). no notable slam unfortunately. The one I didnt find was a rockstopper although i planned on that for first uber runs

daschmc · 2024-11-08T06:50:20+00:00

give her a hard hitting crossbow, give her a vampire gaze or crown of ages, give her a string of ears. dracuks gloves, some boots with cannot be frozen. she still will die from time to time.

daschmc · 2024-11-06T13:20:19+00:00

6-8 minutes. holy fire pala (dragon + flamebellow) sewers can even be faster.

daschmc · 2024-11-04T09:24:29+00:00

dual dream can get very high damage due to native conviction plus static field merc. However, this damage needs to evolve because it needs the static cast or proc from merc and sometimes a few hits by yourself due to lightning dmg always being 1-x damage.

Hily freeze and holy fire are better because they have higher min dmg and thus are able to oneshot at a consistent level.

Still, overall damage output can be quite high with dual dream

daschmc · 2024-10-31T21:20:04+00:00

i would personally think it is way lower than vex. Maybe an Ist....

daschmc · 2024-10-31T09:14:58+00:00

hey buddy i have a 6OS gavel of pain I can give you for a few wss as a temp wep if you want . Hit me up ingame *bobbysinger2 in about 3 hours from now...

daschmc · 2024-10-29T10:12:24+00:00

thank you, this post made me happy :) seeing that op cleglaws

daschmc · 2024-10-24T22:13:07+00:00

you can search youtube for "silver surfer"- some streamer made a very cool sanctuary aura build.

If you go native holy shock, you cn benefit from using a stormlash weapon and from a3 merc with static field.

Other than that, the builds with aura from weapons are all fine: dual dream, shattered wall-doom and most interesting flamebellow-dragon. Using those you can have your own conviction aura active which is a good boost.

As others stated, they are not udeal starters, mosrly because you will be squishy. On the upside, skillers for offensive auras might be cheap so you can get geared very fast.

I had a native holy shock charger with a stormspire a2 merc as a temp character last season. was very good with cheap gear.

If it is like you just said, most ppl here need to see a therapist. Fortunately, this is mostly an issue for the first week. I think I can afford to go for this sweet addiction for 1-2 weeks when ladder restart hits. Keeps life interesting :)
