Two handed axer paladin v. 2.0

[Ford Taunus]

Hellos,

Here is my new template "Two handed axer paladin". As far best item & skill template I have used for sooloing. There is nothing special on skill more like item set is unique.

About template and item set:
* No "random drop items" items, all imbuable (Just for jewelry you need plain SSI and DI jewerly)
* No need for potions (Str and Dex 150 from set)
* Full resistances 75,75,75,75,80 with DCI 20 for elf character
* Set have made with phys recist 90 for protection casting from scroll
* Stamina 213 (without buffs) with SSI 35 gives max swing speed for 3.75 speed weapons
* HPI 150 (without buffs)
* Mana 78 with chivalry tier 3 mastery, base 63
* HCI 45 / DCI 20 (DCI 20 cannot be higher than 20 because of refinements)
* LMC 46 (6 from heavy armours)
* DI 100 without weapon! (So I can imbue weapon with for example HML, HSL, HLL, HLA, HLD)
* No mace & shield classes, but I imbue HLD to weapon
* Mostly uses two handed axes with onslaught sometimes bladed staff
* Healing comes from HLL, CW and Confidence

Skills I use:
* Most time: All skills 120 Swordmanship, Parry, Bushido, Anatomy, Tactics, Chivalry
* Special cases 1: All skills 120 Swordmanship, 60 Parry, 120 Bushido, 120 Tactics, 120 Chivalry, Musicianship 90, Discordance 90 (Here I need special ring & brace with disco and musicianship +15)
* Special cases 2: All skills 120 Swordmanship, Parry, Bushido, Resisting spells, Tactics, Chivalry

Pros:
* Can swap swordmanship for archery and still got nice SSI for composite long bow
* No potion / other consumable buff needed
* DI capped without weapon
* Jewelry can be changed for 1/3 if needed pretty easily
* All resistances max (+5 over capped with refinements)
* I can use pretty slow two handed axe as main weapon because of stamina and SSI
* Set easy to replicate because no legendary / other "random drop items"
* Easy to swap skills, like anatomy 120 to recist spells 120 for some casting monsters
* Slayer comes from Cameo talisman. So I need only 5 different imbued 100% elemental (1 of every elemental type) on most situation. (So I can make 30 different combinations with weapons and Cameos)
* Protection can be casted without resistance loss

Cons:
* FC/FCR 0/0 for basic set
* Fire recist 75, so not suitable for sampire
* DCI cap 20 from refinements
* No mace & shield classes, but I imbue HLD to weapon
* No poison protection as sampire, but can eat orange pedals

This is as far best template I have ever got.

As far I have soloed all these very easily:
* Most of champion spawns
* Dreahorn
* Paroxymos
* Navrey
* Medusa

I will test Travesty, Roof and Corgul soon.

What are the skills?

What are the skills?

Was in first post:
* All skills 120 Swordmanship, Parry, Bushido, Anatomy , Tactics, Chivalry

It looks like standard Bushido Paladin (All skills 120 Swordmanship, Parry, Bushido, Anatomy , Tactics, Chivalry). And yes, it is a very good template.

Using Two Handed Axe instead of Double Axe gives you 6% more damage. But you still need to switch to Double Axe for WW.

For more damage with a Two Handed Axe you'd better to use sword mastery and Onslaught instead of chivalry master.

Monsters you listed can be do solo by most of templates.

p.s. I used Two Handed Axe with my Disco-Necro-Swordsman. He does a lot of damage, especially when replaces RS with LJ (against some monsters).

Yes. I there is nothing special on template skills just more like items. Most I see in forums uses something like stamina near 180 and DI on weapon and mace & shield classes.

There is nothing special on skills (And I did not said there is). Bonus from Items are pretty different than I see on other forum templates. (Like max str and dex from items, so no potion macroing during game)

.

Sure. I was wondering about bushido and parry masteries also. Are they total waste?
I am returning player and not very familar with masteries yet.

 

[Lord GOD(GOD)]

Mines pretty similar, except I have skill increase items so have 65 points in Poisoning as well as 120 in the others, it's very useful for curing. I also don't use Cameo's so save like 1.2b on the suit there. I use Onslaught but achieve a similar amount of mana as you do with the Chivalry mastery. I would say most of the dexxer ones are a waste except Onslaught.

 

[Zalan]

Chivalry Mastery at level 3 with Rejuvenate restores all your health, mana, and stamina once an hour. It's a nice emergency heal. Holy Fist not to shabby either.

You can have multiple Masteries. Switch to the one that fits the situation. There just a ten minute timer on switching.

Few points:

"Using Two Handed Axe instead of Double Axe gives you 6% more damage."
It is not all about damage. Also leeches are higher.

"But you still need to switch to Double Axe for WW."
I do not see reason to change yo WW on most bosses, maybe Neira and Barracoon.

"Monsters you listed can be do solo by most of templates."
Yes I have soloed those on many templates. I meaned tha with this template/item set makes them super easy all

 

[Dizzy]

You don't miss having Focus?

 

[Ford Taunus]

You don't miss having Focus?

I dont need Focus because of mana leech, stamina leech, divine fury and confidence

 

[Merlin]

What mods are you putting on most of your weapons?

 

[Ford Taunus]

What mods are you putting on most of your weapons?

Got 3 different type now:

HLA, HLD, HLL, HML + Hit Fatigue
HLA, HLD, HLL, HML + Hit Mana drain
HLA, HLD, HLL, HML , HSL

Mostly I dont need HSL because of heavy armour stamina protection. Just for heavy hitters. I got stamina up with Divine Fury.

Added to first post. Some of refinements not applied on pictures yet. But hardest (Invulnerable refinemet with 5 resistances placed so) rest go easily with 4.
