Viability of Elemental Pally?
Hi all, in season 1 I had a nice standard zealadin with Maxes Fanat/Zeal/Sac/Demption and he tore pretty much everything up with stormlash.
However, the ONE thing that consistently killed him was IM, and being locked in zeal never helped.
I was considering using a pally with Zeal for his primary attack (fully synergized) with Conviction as his aura.
Will this be viable in hell?
I am assuming that I WILL NOT need Attack Rating because of Conviction hosing their defense, is this a correct assumption? With maxed Zeal and Conviction will I hit with EVERY swing? (95% of the time)
Next, I am filling my inventory with cold/fire/lightning charms instead of sharp charms because they add SO MUCH more damage. Why add 3 phys damage when you can add 27 lightning damage? Will Conviction and Zealing with an inventory full of charms and a weapon like B-Star, Nord's, or Demon Limb do enough damage?
I was also considering a specialized variant wearing most of IK set and using IK maul; any comments on that?
It seems that Zeal will attack plenty fast enough with the right gear without Fanat, and I don't have to worry about 50% physical resistance. I know Conviction can remove elemental immunities; I forget if it removes physical immunity; does it? In addition, does it remove or lessen the global 50% physical resistance in hell?
Comboing this with open wounds and crushing blow appears to deal far more damage than any physical set up and would leave me MUCH less vulnerable to dying via IM.
Has anyone ever tried this?
