Have one simple request

AND THAT IS TO HAVE FREAKIN SHARKS WITH FREAKIN LASER BEAMS ATTACHED TO THEIR FREAKIN HEADS!

But seriously now...I don't really have that much fun with PvP anymore so I decided to go back to the good old days of nothing but PvM with the occasioal one char for dueling. Problem is though Im bored of Sorcs, hate Druids, Barbs...ugg, never liked Necros, same with Amazons. The only classes I really enjoyed to play with non stop in PvM are Asssasins and Paladins. I would really appreciate it if anyone could give me a KICKASS PvM build, preferablly a Kicker I dont like traps. I want a char that can solo baal, and hold her own in the new Trist. I have no price boundry as far as equipment goes. I know this is the Sin forum, but if someone could link me to a very good Pally build, other than a hammerdin, I would appreciate that also.

Thanks for the help.

Seems very Interesting, I like it. You think I can add in a little WW to this build? I was thinking around the lines of:

20 Talon
20 Claw
20 Venom
enuff into Claw block for 60 percent
10-15 Tiger
10-15 BoS

1 DF
1 Shadow Master
1 Cos
1 Blade Fury
1 Blade shield

Think that would work out all right?

A few problems I notice right at once:

1) You're not going to have enough points to complete the build except maybe at lvl 95+: 60% claw block requires slvl 27 WB. 50% is a much more reasonable mark IMO, achieveable at slvl 10(so you could go with base 5 points).

2) Don't bother with TS if you're going with DTalon, as chargeup bonuses only apply on the first Kick and not the follow-ups. DTalon on its own works fine with enough CB and/or STR. And chargeups aren't released with WW.

3) Use Fade instead of BoS. BoS does not affect WW speed, and with the right claws and enough IAS on equipment, you'll be able to hit the speed cap on DTalon.

4) Get at least 1 point in DS. Helps a ton with PIs.

Level 78 Assy - I've been doing quite well in Hell (act2 so far) with a hybrid kicker :

8 Dragon Talon ... +skills take it between 12 and 17 for 3 kicks
MAX Shadow Master
MAX Death Sentry
MAX Lightning Sentry

0 Fade
0 Venom
1 Claw Block (50% block after +skills)
1 COS
1 Mind Blast, but I never use it

Equipment :
2 Jade Talons (or sometimes 1 Bartuc or Chaos)
Upgraded Gore Riders
Fortitude Armour
Shako
Dracul's Grasp
Upgraded Nightsmoke (or Thundergods)
Ravenfrost and Carrion Wind Rings
+1 Assy Amulet with resists

Call to Arms on Switch

Act1 Cold Merc with "Ice" runeword bow, Fortitude Armour and Dream Tiara

It's quite fun to play with all the auras and special effects and hasn't had any trouble so far in Hell - just killed Duriel without drinking a potion and both merc and shadow survived.

Holy Freeze (merc)
Holy Shock (merc)
Battle Orders
%Chilling Armour when struck
%Poison Nova when struck
%Confusion when struck (merc, but we swap helms sometimes)
%Life Tap on striking
%Tornado on striking
%Frozen Orb on striking (when I use Chaos)

Life tap is very useful and goes off a lot with a kicker - Tornado and orb are more for fun. I have a few spare skill points - may put one in Fade and will probably put the rest into Dragon Flight (for the occasional PvP). I understand Venom is better, but I'm doing just fine without it.

If you change your mind about dragon flight I suggest you put one point into blade it's just a nice skill to have :) and very enjoyable also when you find yourself bored with DTalon.
