Could use some help with my crusader I like him and everything but i do not feel like I can progress much farther without full set but maybe someone can suggest something that I can try out.
I know that my amulet does not have str on it I gotta find something that does till then what I have there is just a place holder. I need to get some more asheara mat to make some leggings or go captain but still gotta find the mats. Other than that I feel like I am doing well. I put my paragon points into movement speed for 25% then rest into str, cdr then cc, ar then armor, rcr then lph. Thanks ahead of time!
Currently doing T2 in a group alright but not easily solo, just wondering if i can get some advice on what skills i should change around or maybe items/sets to aim for to help get to the higher T levels.
Hey guys i'm playing sader for bit i got 2/6 Akk and doing t5-t6 without much problem due my wep-shield combo, i feel a bit stuck. survivalbility i don't have problem nor with burst but i'm breaking my head using fillers to smooth the downtime between the HFs and i'm not sure how to get 'shotgunning' HF to be enough efficient.
Stupidly i salvaged decent BT chest and trying to get one till akk chest drop. any suggestion what to improve during akk seeking and what to do with b.shards cause my mind going places...
Hi, after some suggestion from helper here, amended some skill set for more single target while keeping my shield throw build, now is would like to ask for now going with fire or holy or lightning will be better? Currently i'm using holy build and i'm aiming to go for t4 at least and wanted to know what adjustment i need to make for my gear

Provoke charged up was nerfed, useless now. Use Laws of valor critical instead. Reforge shield to Critical hit chance. Instead of yellow boots and ring use Cain boots and RoRG. Lord commander passive need to be replaced by Towering shield. Fanaticism by Finery.
So I'm pretty much stuck at this point. I can handle T3 rifts pretty well, but that's about where I stop. T4 takes quite a bit longer and I always seem to stumble into a death. I'm looking to make the Aughild shoulders and chest when I actually find the plans, and I'm also one of those people who hasn't found a RoRG yet. I don't have a Charo, Hellskull, Piro, or any other legendary shield aside from the one on my templar and a hallowed I made with 20% holy damage. Also I don't have any of the legendary flails aside from the mortal drama and I also only have two pieces of (poorly rolled) akkhan, the helm and the boots.
Now given my poor luck, what are my options? Just keep running and hope at some point, SOMETHING drops that will help me kick into a higher torment level? Or is there something I can do with my current gear (I'm trying to make a new captain's belt that can roll AR but just can't get those sand sharks to spawn) that would help me out beyond what I'm currently using? Also what changes to my build would make it flow better or would just be a better change in general?
Thanks for any opinions or ideas you may have for my crusader. I appreciate it. Good luck out there!

I've never really liked holy so i can't really comment on the state of your spec that in depth. I think you should run akkarats champ over falling sword though, maybe something like embodiment of power.
If you are focusing on CDR for condemn i'd say it's not really worth it since the holy BoP condemn build doesn't really function in T6 any more. could be spent elsewhere on stats like all res or vit. I'd say just keep struggling through and trying to find specific peices through kadala and then function your spec around it. Fire/Liightning/Holy are all viable in t6 with a few builds. Find a darklight or maximus? go fire. Fate of the fells? Holy. Tgods/Shaffuers/ go lightning. crusader are gated so hard by gear at t3-t4 but once you get that signature item the rest just falls into place i wish you the best of luck :).
I'm looking for some assistance with my gearing. I'm currently able to faceroll T2, but T3 gets pretty dangerous at times, and some of the larger mobs (Executioners, Death Maidens, etc.) take a long time to kill. I've got a ~2200DPS Foote and a Jekangbord sitting in my stash, as well as a couple of build-specific shields (Piro Marella, Vo-Toyias Spiker, Final Witness)

Hey, I got tired of my monk because I want to deal damage so I decided to roll a Crusader. I have (almost) no strength gear for level 70 but once I get there I will start farming for a RoRG and craft a decent Aughilds set and some random legendaries.I got powerleveled to 60 and now that I'm actually playing my character I was wondering which build to use. Which build is the easiest to get started from yellow crafts?
Honestly, I would have to go with fire. The hardest part will be getting to the cdr breakpoint at 56% and getting 6 pc Akkahn. FotH Heaven's Tempest is extremely powerful right now. Providing massive aoe and great single target damage as well. You can run any gear with it while progressing. Fire starter on AC is also very powerful right now. The DoT that it procs can stack on the same target doing an insane amount of dmg.
To get started farm yourself a Reaper's Wrap. Getting the mat of Malthael should be pretty easy and it doesn't have to be perfect for the first one. Then start running rifts and bounties. Use your Blood Shards to gamble for a Cindercoat and Mage FIsts If you get decent Akkhans pieces that should be ok, although, the passive on Cindercoat will be extremely useful before you are able to stack some CDR. That should provide you with a decent starting point. You can checkout Mannercookie's guide on the main page. He breaks down ever section of progression from normal to T6 and provides you with all the stats you should be focusing on. It's long but worth it imo. Good luck!
Cheers, 5k+ shards on my monk and no cindercoat though so I'm not going to make my build revolve around it
You don't need the Cindercoat at all late game because you will have enough CDR to keep AC up with 56% CDR and 6 pc Akkahn. I'd still gamble for chest though to get the Akkahn chest piece, which is the main point to it. If you get a Cindercoat, that's just a bonus. It's extremely helpful for wrath management while you're progressing. You can get away without using it though if you have Reaper's Wraps. It will just be a little heavier on wrath.
I've been playing RoS A LOT latel. Pured hours and hours and hundreds of hours of rifting into my crusader. Alas, a fried of mine, playing significantly less, has better numbers in the character sheet and it feels, he is performing at least as well as me when we rift together (T4 at the moment).
Am I doing it right? Or are thereGLARING mistaks in my build+gear?
Your gear looks pretty decent. I would roll the Life% in to CDR on your shoulders. It's probably a good Idea to pick up Ring of the Royal Grandeur and get the 4pc Akkhan bonus or craft a couple of the Aughilds pieces in a slot that you wouldn't mind replacing and sticking with the 2pc Akkhan bonus. Aughild's set will provide some bonus dmg against elites and some extra defense as well. The extra wrath you get in AC with the 4pc isn't quite worth it yet since the CD on it will still be pretty long. You'll eventually want to put a diamond in your helm for the 12.5% CDR. The shield you have currently is also pretty useless since 2.0.5 change to Heavenly Strength(no more speed debuff). Other than that just keep focusing on getting the rest of the Akkhan set and stack CDR.
Your build is pretty heavy on the defensive side. For a good holly build you can pick up FotF and do the holy shotgun build with Heaven's Fury/Fires of Heaven. It's pretty heavy on wrath though. I'm not a fan of this build for progression due to the fact that you will need to use 2 cooldowns to maintain your wrath until you have enough CDR to keep AC/Embodiment of Power up. It slows down clear speed by a large margin until you hit a certain gear point. Still a really good build, just way more gear dependent.
I would try using Justice/Crack for primary, FotH/Divine Well for a secondary. This with Holy Cause passive will proc a lot more LoH allowing you to replace Law of Justice with Law of Valor/Critical or Unstoppable Force(for FotH spam). You could also replace the Renewal passive with Finery which will give you a significant damage increase unless you have survival issues. Your other passives are fine the way they are. Condemn isn't very useful anymore since the 2.0.5 changes. I would use Provoke for the extra wrath. You can pretty much use any rune you want with this but Charged Up will provide a slight damage increase. This is the build that I used in T4 until I switched to the fire build. I enjoyed it quite a bit. It works well the Darklight and Fate of the Fell. If you get a FotF, Heaven's Fury/ Blessed Ground works really well with this. Especially when you couple it with Eberli Charo. I hope this helped.
I looted some pretty sweet items this week, like these :http://i.imgur.com/0zaeKY6.png. Got the Gauntlet today, but i'm still wondering what to reroll?Should i aim for 750 STR or 10% CHC?
I'm almost exclusively running T4 rifts with a friend of mine in less than 5 minutes per rift, so it's pretty efficient for what it is Waiting for my 6pc Akkhan and a better FotF (one with CDR would be nice) to try higher Torment. I'm gambling for an Hellskull. Any suggestion?

I would roll the poison resist in to health globe. More heals can never hurt. If you decided to reroll something else, I would do the strength. It rolled pretty low. .5% CHC isn't worth the mats though.
Thank you for the answer. I got the same one from another guy i asked ... but sadly, Health Globe bonus can't roll from my gloves :http://imgur.com/IvXwNRH Guess i'll go with STR then :/
Maybe it's just me but I feel like T6 is too slow for me. I am trying to get a good T6 build. I can do T6 with my WD friend and we can do rifts in ~10~15 mins. I haven't really timed myself solo but it also feels around 15 mins or so.
Currently I am holy specced, I was lightning specced in the beginning but I jumped on the blessed shield bandwagon(I only had jekangbord and not gyrfalcon's foote though). With 2.0.5 I can't find a build I feel comfortable with. I have full akhan set but most of my items did not roll CDR so I only have ~24% CDR I think and I heard you need about 53% for perma akarat's. I have heard fire builds are now really good but I would have to spend TONS of gold to reroll my equipment.
Main Issue: I am running out of wrath EXTREMLY quick even with akarat's champion except for my current build.
Equipment to use: Darklight, All 4 2H flails(FotF, Golden Flence, Mortal Drama, Baleful Remnant), Jekangbord, Hallowed Shield, Eberli Charo; because of aforementioned wrath issues I switched back to andy helm + reaper's wraps instead of aughilds.
Builds I've tested: Kept on with Blessed shield, wrath issues because of no gyrfalcon's(if I could get one i might actually stick with blessed shield build).
A Holy specced FotH build, wrath issues again, I could have a few seconds of burst(50% reduced wrath cost from laws of valor) but then I'd spend some time auto attacking to get my wrath back up.
Derp phalanx build; used baleful remnant with lord commander passive + bowmen phalanx instead of heaven's fury for single target damage.
Holy shotgun, wrath issues again.... similar issues to the darklight holy build.
Current build; focus less on a wrath spender(fists in this case) and more on heaven's fury. With eberli charo's 50% reduction and my ~24% CDR my heaven's fury only has 1~2s downtime(lasts 6s and it's not like you put more rays down, the later ones replace the previous ones). Only issue with this is heaven's ray does DoT and it just feels slow(not sure if it is exactly though, just the feel of it...)
Any suggestions? I just don't know whether to try to roll for gyrfalcon's foote from kadala right now or try to get fire specced stuff, or what....
I've been playing my crusader for awhile and was going towards fire spec but I'm not getting the drops/rolls I needed (eg: cold dmg(!) on Andariel's). Plus, like basically most crusaders, I've been trying to farm RRoG/Akkhan pieces but only found gloves and boots. And Kadala is being a b***h apparently does not like me.
Currently on T2 with current gear and spec but would like to go higher. Any gear or build suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Currently hanging in t5 .. Don't feel confortable doing t6 and I'm a solo game oriented.. think to make that jump I need full Akan set missing shoulders or pants.. got blade of prophecy last night . That said would anyone give advice to change back to my holy blessed shield with (both shield flail combo) mix blade of prophecy to that build or stick to fire build and improve that path realy seeking help among fellow crusaders thx

First thing I see would be to craft yourself a Reaper's Wrap. Since that's pretty much the easiest thing to craft and most useful for progression. Maybe switch the diamonds in your gear to rubies. Strength gives armor and if you are only on T2 you don't need that much toughness. You could also try leaving 1 in the chest and put rubies in everything else if you AR gets too low. Switch Towering Shield to Finery. That should give you a pretty big increase in damage and most of the damage from your current build is coming from Shield Bash not Retaliate. For the most part it just seems like your lacking in gear. Just keep trying to farm for the Akkhan set and pushing through. Reaper's Wrap with fire% is really all you need to switch to the spec. It doesn't rely heavily on gear while your progressing. The cool down on AC will be pretty long though. Keep gambling for chest pieces and hopefully you can get a Cindercoat/Akkhans. Move on to your weakest slot from there. Hope this helped. Good luck!

Blessed Shield is still a viable build in T6 but I feel Fire will be more efficient especially with rift bosses. A big thing would be finishing out the Akkhan set completely. That way you can replace the RoRG for a unity setup. The 50% damage reduction is too good to pass up. If you go that route crafting Reaper's Wrap will help with the wrath issues. You're also missing a lot of CDR for a T6 efficient fire build. Since a majority of the fire damage comes from First Starter, hitting that 56% cdr breakpoint is essential.
