The Holy Discodin [Endgame Build]

The Holy Discodin

Introduction

This build is based on Holy Paladin's defensive skills and also makes use of his physical/poison enhances by useing fully maxed Plague & Dragonheart to pushs the Oskills Disco-Inferno & Cherubim while haveing good survivability in most situations.
I started this project in thought of my old Discomancer/Barb I made 1 year ago. Compaired to those old fellas this Pala grows way better than at the beginning expected. So my thought – why not share with the community huh?

Since this is my first Guide I wrote, I ask for a little indulgence if something is still inconsistent, thank you.

Pros
- you spam Discoballs *not cool enuff?!
- you make every instance to a Partyzone
- your 2nd oSkill Cherubim auto-attacks & clears the screen
- lazy & good farming
- good single target by multiple overstacked Discoballs
- moderate tankiness

Neutral
- need many Great-Runes (compaired to rly rare uniq’s not rly a con imo.)

Cons
- won't have access to main skills until lv.100-120 Runewords
- cannot swap Weapon & Armor
- End-Game Focused
- can't do all Ubers
- not beginner friendly cause of costs/requirements

..:: How to play ::..

► Show Spoiler

Simple, join an area, buff yourself: Dragonknight > Rapture > Dragon Heart > Vessel of Retribution > War Spirit If use Rouge Forsight > Hoplites If needed > weapon switch Bloodlust > switch back cast Sacred Armor + Vindicate every now and then within 30sec and start your Adventure.

Disco Inferno can be only played on the right mouse button, therefor you bind Cherubim on your left side and activate as needed by just taping stand still or hold stand still for longer casts. In most situations it is enough to cast around 1-3 Cherubims while spamming around with Disco Inferno and keep moveing – not sure what to say more ^^ its pretty simple and effective playstyle.

For sustain the huge Manacosts, Disco Inferno 1976mana/cast and Cherubim 556mana/cast we have to use

up to 250 mana on striking. The build is unplayable without it! Keep that in mind…
But actually this RW fits this Build very well by adding some good Phys Weapon Damage and Poison pierce. Also being able to permanent cast Disco Inferno on Bosses makes it very powerfully compaired to sustain by only Mana Regeneration (like I tryed already on Nec/Barb).

The use of Cherubim byside it does good damage is, that this skill let us recover Mana very quick. If we ever run out of mana or lower than 2000 to use another Discoball you can always cast atleast 1 Cherubim (556 Manacost) which we normaly regenerate in +/-1sec.
Set 1-2 Cherubim and the huge Mana on Striking do the rest, you are instand ready-to-fight and back with full Mana and can spam again Discoballs. A little contra of Cherubim is, that you can't leech life with it and only on striking is working.

This build is designed primarily in terms of an endgame variant. It is possible to start at level 100, but I recommend starting at level 125, this allows the use of Xis Runewords as well as most important Charms.
To meet these requirements, you can start off as an Melee or Caster Paladin.

Act 2 Fighter Mage

Propably the best choice seems Act 2 Fighter Mage wich casts Chronofield. At this point thanks @mill3nia which mentioned it in his Guide for his Neutraldin and the hint trying this out

Chronofield
Skill that slows enemies and reduces their physical and feedback resistances.
Actually I’m not sure If stacking Merc’s +x All Skills and pushing Chronofield to lv.20+ has the effect wiki says.
"Enemy physical/feedback resistance reduction now scales with skill level rather than Base Level, due to a Diablo 2 limitation"

Ofc you have to check Mercenarys strenght when you want to equip a Khazra Plate and get benefit of the Demon Blood Aura, but once you hit lvl.140 you have more possibilities. The Armor itself can drained easily by putting 6x -10req/leech Jewels into it which result in 1728str requirements. Furthermore you have easy play to sox remaining merc slots with %str/leech jewels or Ko-Runes & beeing able to avoid creepy craft items.
If you don't have/want a Khazra Plate, you can set your focus on merc's damage/+sk levels/procs, but don't expect he do the job for you.

Who is the best DISCO dancer. I think it shold be someone who have access to multiple procs - Xbow necro, bow amazon, bow javelin zon (i tried it but was lackin damage and mana). Does it work on dudes who transforms (know fore sure it not work at those who morfs with restrictions to use ranged skils, but does it true in sigma?)

TYYYYY !!!!

disco is a waste without lots of procs on striking .

at the point you are going to use Disco Inferno only, on-strinking-procs ofc are very important, and in this case I would say Necromancer has best capabilities byside solve the mana problem, but you are still limited by a number of Discoballs you can cast depending on your Manapool. In contrast to this, you here able to infinite cast Disco Inferno and only be limited to cast speeds which should compensate some missing proc. dmg with a constant dmg-over-time.
It's not like you have zero procs here, the build includes Knife Throw & Timestrike atleast + useing a 100%wd oSkill (Cherubim)

Nice Party guide!
I have some questions about gear choices from abjurer.

for Buff Duration might be great. Unfortunately I can not test it since I do not have those items, just some theorycrafting...

I think writing Eternal armor as midgame runeword would be wrong suggestion, no way a person can get all 6 gr in midgame, you might wanna suggest some other armor that can be obtained by self-farm in midgame point.

We also no longer wanna encourage use of AHK and macros so you might wanna edit out that part and update accordingly.

Also, you might wanna edit the guide title in a way to point that this is an endgame play build only.

Overall i feel this is a fun guide but it certainly have some room for improvement.

be better in shield slot, since you have 2 more sockets up to 6 more skills and some nice cast rate that helps reaching the 194 cap for Superbeast?
Also, if you have enough pierce already

Ty,... hmm about the Anjurer, tbh. wasn't that deep into it for max him for dmg, I only checked that he has all breakpoints (mostly solved due eq/jewels), haveing a decent pierc/dmg and made him afterwards more to an supporter by useing something like a Hidden Craft Sword with Void Archon reanimate & Hidden Craft Boots with Unseelie Lady reanimate.
If you want to know more you better check the Abjurer Mini Guide thought https://forum.median-xl.com/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=30268

Thx for feedback & infos, yes you are right, it is mainly an endgame only build. I may have misdefined mid-game as I attempted to show items that could be worn at level 100 and make it possible to start play the build instead of thinking someone with lv.100 in his gear progression - will fix this to end game gearing with more item choices thought.

Nice build

Been playing a Cherubim holydin this entire ladder and I think it's also worth noting that Cherubim is very viable by itself, as long as you can get it to zero cooldown (skill level 32), which requires accumulating some charms, getting a decent ZoharXis roll and maybe shifting some gear for more +skills, but still might be easier than having to acquire all 6 great runes for Eternal.

Find that Krys paladin helm is very good for build
