Lightning based Crusader is more of a fun, stun-based build now and in 2.4 patch. It`s not really effective in higher tier game. But if you're not going to be a hardcore min-max diablo player it`s ok to play.
How much of the end game scene is missed by not being a 'hardcore min-max diablo player'? Mind you I know nothing really of how the end game works yet.
I'm looking to start playing D3 as it's always interested me but I've never taken the dive. But a buddy has finally convinced me.
I tend to like games where I can play some lightning infused character that can equally punch you in the face or blow you up with magic. A battle mage if you will. After watching a lot of videos online it seems the crusader is a class in D3 that could fit this mold. But I'm a noob when it comes to understanding end game in D3 and much less about how viable a lightning-centric build can be long term.
I've seen a lot online which seems to indicate lightning based attacks are/were viable but I'm just looking evidence that this would hold up over time. I don't mind if the actual attack I use each season has to change. But for a pure RP-enjoyment part of the game I'd like to keep it lightning based.
I know nothing of how gear works or if/how it can be changed to fit your needs. I don't know if that then plays into what I'd be looking to do. I understand there are ways to enhance abilities but that's about it.
Thanks in advance!
