Retaliate Paladin single target problem.

[RollsRoyce]

dont forget about balefire proc on crafted weapons its dmg helps alot vs single targets

[Asteroth]

I'm not sure holy melee can actually put that proc to efficient use. Unholy melee have Hymn for sustain

So... after putting more attack rating i could kill diablo, But i had to invest 200 points in vit i had to go in dex... and i got like... more 6k attack rating.
Still seen fairly low, i could not hit much the barbarians. Should i invest on try farming a full cinanide?(I can clear well Terror TA/Act 4 River Flame Destruction)

Sorry for bothering too much. Things are walking but seen going slow to me, i'm newb

" Retaliate Paladin"
SMaxed Plague/Devaking/Dragon Oath/Merkabah,

gear is:

Weapon: The Angeris Star
Armor: Wyand's Fervor
Helm: Witchhunter Hood
Belt: Cinande Anvil
Gloves: Honorific Gloves (1) with +144% to all resists and -30% Poision enemy resistance
Boots: Nephilin RW

the gear doesn't really match the build name . or maby it's not a retaliator

Like i previously mentioned, you need jewels that give bonus Attack Rating (40-50%). This will increase your AR even more.
Since you're melee, craft jewels with Ber rune. It'll also give you lifesteal

Idk if some one already mention it but get crafted weapon with belefire proc. Then you'll have your single target skill problem solved

have you tried whirlpool boots? this is good single target skill as well as semi-good for tight packs, but you have retaliate tho. just craft some boots or roll iLvL 99

also about poison damage... quoted from official docs

1. Poison duration does not affect poison damage per second. In other words, if you do 100 damage per second over 10 seconds, your total damage would be 1000. If you add 5 more seconds, your damage per second won't decrease to 66 (1000:15=66). Instead you will do 1500 total damage (100*15=1500).

so then L42 plague = 85-114k damage over 5.8s = 142k x 5.8 = average 823k total, if docs are right
also get -200 psn res not -100 as regular mobs seems to have some poison res already, even not immune ones.

All monsters have either 0 or 100 (immune) res to particular element o you're wrong. Getting -199 res is only for bosses with heroic shield because they have 100 res after they drop immu shield.

ah, true, thanks for correcting me about that

[RollsRoyce]

-100% enemy poison res does also double the poison length
