Sorry if I missed it but I couldn't find any thread of the first 2 pages regarding using a 1h build for crusader? Is it just not viable at all, or does it require certain gear? Since there are legendary 1H flails, I figured 1h crusader could work? And if so, what kind of build would be best for it?
I found the recipe, and then farmed the materials to build the Golden Scourge - even got a fairly decent roll on it, paired with a Hallowed Defender and a couple of other pieces of +Holy damage and general all-around decent stats...
Still do lots and lots more damage using a 2H.
The Gryphalcon's Foot or whatever is probably the only viable 1H, but really only if you also pair it with the leg shield that makes Blessed Shield bounce 5-6 times. Even that very specific gear set and Blessed Shield build most people will say isn't that great for anything above Torment 4.
Right now there are only a couple of "end game" 2H - Mortal Drama for Bombardment/Phalanx builds, Fate of the Fell for Holy builds, and Blade of Prophecy for Condemn Holy builds. Maximus is pretty darn good for any build, but not as effective as the above.
I was able to get through T3 easily thanks to darklight. It gives a 40-60% chance to also cast a Fist of the Heavens at your location. Mine rolled 52%. I am also working on a build that uses the flail that gives your blessed hammers the dominion rune. It can be done, you just need the other gear to support it.
aye, what KazeCole said. i just did a darklight build, and kill shit faster in T1-2 faster than my 2 hander build using heavens fury... so it's possible, you just have to find the 1 hander you want, and supplement the rest of the gear to make it as effective as possible
5 primary's and is quite acceptable (granted you are "stuck" with move speed or life on hit. but I don't mind either of those). granted after the %elemental works as intended on weapon damage it will likely perform below +holy/Lightning
Edit: forgot my on topic portion...
I have a pretty decent rolled http://us.battle.net/d3/en/item/skycutter that I am keeping for when they fix the %elemental bug. going to try swapping heavenly strength for holy cause. should be getting a pretty good chunk of bonus then.
