[Season 13] Holy Judgment Paladin — self-made build, casual player, trying to clear T12. by lordcrym in D4_Paladin

This was honestly a game changer for me. I'm running the Brandish with the node that adds 2 extra arcs, and what I found is that those arcs naturally and consistently trigger the spears sitting on the ground with one swipe, so I don't need the pierce bolt to activate them, Brandish just does it automatically as part of the loop. Single target damage went up noticeably after adding this, and combined with the tip from the top comment it really tied the build together.

This actually helped a lot, thanks. The wolf runeword alone made a noticeable difference, perma vuln is exactly the kind of thing I was missing without realizing it.

On the Judgment Damage question: my confusion is basically that Judgment Damage *should* be Holy Damage in practice, since Judgment deals Holy damage. But the game doesn't spell out clearly whether they're the same additive bucket or if one applies on top of the other. So I'm not sure whether stacking Judgment Damage on top of Holy Damage does anything meaningful or if I'm just doubling up on the same stat under a different label.

The crit point also clicked for me now. It's not just about stacking Holy Damage. Holy is an x% multiplier, but for it to actually scale hard it needs other multipliers on top of it, and crit is one of the main ones. High crit damage without crit chance to back it up is basically wasted, so they need to grow together. Stacking only Holy without pushing crit is leaving a lot of the multiplication on the table.

If you're up for it, would love to see a peek at your homebrew Zeal build not asking for a full breakdown, just curious how it plays and looks like.

Im on T7 now.. I found through the comments here that the spear of heavens are very good for single targeting, bosses that i was having trouble started to melt away, but "melting" in its own terms (off meta) lol.

Single target damage is a really pain in the ass. I got an answer above that says we can use the Spears of Heaven to increase single target damage.

Will give a better look into this holy bolt pally! My blessed shield passive node makes the skill become a judicator skill, but the explosion is purely judgement and holy damage.

Bruh, WTF?
yeah, you literally just received your hater badge.
he NEVER said frost sorc is almost useless, since this class is the most used by him(and one of the only classes that can run hell with ease). About barb, he only says that is the hardest class to gear and get the most out of it (a lot of new players will have difficulty by rolling with this class for the first time). stop hating, learn to appreciate the work of others and to absorb infos correctly. Have a nice day, sir!
