Great guide bro

awrsome build Q, the only item i run different is instead of the mace i prefer Cam's Rebuttal.

Gave up on monk when someone else discovered mad skill interaction and made a sub-optimal geared build that outdid yours hey. Hahahaha

Holy Cause is just 10% DIBS, BTW.

quin you are the best ! wizzard, monk, and now crusader, great build

Why Pain Enhancer over Gogok ?? Is the ASPD of Pain Enhancer that high that is better than gogok aspd+CDR ?

once you go higher on grifts you will need to snapshot the IAS from pain enhancer.

I just got to 62, rank 80 with Gogok, will try Pain Enhancer, ty !

Nice build, fun to play. Any suggestions on a cube power to use instead of the hexing pants for us console players that can't really stutter step?

Nice guide!

I'm guessing johannas gets cubed if using Akanesh?

I'm only playing hardcore and I'm using estoric alteration as one of my legendary gems and I dont really want to drop it. Which one would you consider dropping of your options? Right now I'm running estoric, trapped and taeguk.

Genuinely curious: How do the Hexing Pants work with this build? I've played a little crusader, but I've never played with these pants cubed.

Thanks!

@ vinande-When using hexing pants you do a stutter step by putting force move on mouse wheel down I have found to be most effective to get optimal damage.

@bland- using cams rebuttal is sub optimal in almost every situation man cause it really hinders your dps and its on such a low cooldown in density that it really is irrelevant.

@tybudd-on console I recommend running leorics crown the extra cdr is a huge toughness boost and allows you to stack tons more damage in other areas. Another really good option is sacred harness it's a very nice toughness boost.

@korbann- I have run pain enhancer, gogok, stricken in my gr 70 clear it's really a matter of opinion and playstyle with the right gear later pain enhancer becomes honestly sub optimal unless it's getting you into the 4 APS breakpoint on stricken which requires a high level of gear.

When using akanesh you you cube argument it's almost manditory you have 10% damage and cdr on it to make it viable I'm currently running akanesh right now in my gr71 solo pushes right now it works well but requires a very well rolled weapon.

Is the Q&A copy pasted from the monk builds?

Its not easy to hit 1200 All res on a crusader if you dont socket diamonds and prioritise dammage stats almost everywhere

Also i've noticed that in your videos you hit rather hard with a non CoE buffed hammer alone (1B-2B if i'm not completely blind)

While my normal hammers atm only do about 200-250m.

Offcourse i'm going to hit alot less than you as my paragon level atm is only 500 or so (season), so i dont have as big of a str bonus as you do at 1300 paragon, and my gear isnt fully optimised yet, and i'm running diamonds.

Still the difference in dammage with all of that in mind seems a bit big, am i missing something ?

Kratos the hitss your referring to come from the 250% damage increase the shield gives you on first three targets hit.

and as far as all resist is concerned you really want to have 1200+ phys resist and a minimum of 600 of everything else.

my hits are with the shield aswell tho.

I would have to inspect your gear man to tell you where the difference is coming from then

I use a different strategy for stutter stepping and was wondering what you think about it. When I start a level, I depress the left mouse and never unpress it, which keeps me always moving as long as I don't center the mouse on my character. I then map force attack to the tilde key, which I spam to stop moving and attack. It seems to work well, but I've been running an ancient furnace instead of Johanna's (which I've reconsidered after this tutorial) and wonder if it works as well with the higher attack speed.

Yea cyber once you start attacking you start missing a lot of casts through up down delays of pushing the keys, rolling the mouse wheel does multiple casts at once.
