Just looking for some feedback, I haven't seen many people playing the way I do and was curious what people think. I am running t3 easily with friends and with some skill don't die too often even with less than 8 million toughness. My philosophy is the best defense, is more offense and so far it's working.
I have been stacking % Holy damage on-top of maintaining my crit chance and crit damage and it's been paying off. Paper damage is over 1 million, but with holy damage buffing all my skills I feel like I am over 1.5 million damage, and with a new ammy and SOJ think I can do 2 million.
I run cool down heavy with some cool down reduction to literally explode in the middle of large packs. When my cool downs are up, I use fist of the heavens to finish everything off and it does because it does a crap ton of damage (especially now with my boots) . Anyways, tell me what you think, I'm just curious because I haven't seen anyone else play like this, and frankly haven'y played with another crusader that can keep up with me.
interesting build, although I wonder how it's working for you in group play, are you never having issues with keeping up with other players that have 125% or even more movementspeed without steed? Also wouldn't you get more dps with Akarat's Champion instead of one of the many skills?
Are you going over 20% crit chance even though you have Judgement? I'll try that build when I get another 2h wpn and some holy gear, but I'd change Bombardement with Akarat's Champion and the Lord Commander passive with something more tanky, I currently run a lightning crusader in t4 but I seem to lack the required healing, I don't die quickly but over time I slowly lose health until I die, which this build might help with (along with Judgement which is a nice group buff)
Movement speed is an issue - I think you just have to settle that you are going to be slow. I actually really enjoy shield bash as a gap closer so that helped. But in light of dishing out as much damage as possible, I dumped it. Akarat Champion would be a good replacement to bombardment, especially with the free death, but I like the 50-60 million crit and area damage from bombardment too much. What also makes bombardment nice, I have it below 30 seconds for cool down.
I have to play around with that, didn't try the CDR builds so far but your idea seems nice, especially <30s Bombardement must be a huge boost- although I'm sure with 6 (5) pieces Akkarat it's going to be changed
