Of course. Always at least 1 point into minions for any build.

.. Man, -210 efr really packs a punch. It feels way stronger than -185 efr I had before.

I guess that RW really helps pushing dmg even further. Man, this build is insane. Thanks for sharing!

Btw, would Laz be doable with this Pally? I have never managed to kill Laz :D

Laz is doable with any class, some easier than others. But you'll need special gear and skill plan for it. Can't just wyrms him down :P

-170 is the cap for heroic bosses. going from 185 to 210 will make zero difference. probably feels better because you have +2 skills and another 35 % fire spell damage.

Oh, that's very good to know. So I have some space to switch around gear. Because right now this is some serious overkill. I'll try to fascinatecraft a paladin blunt weapon with 6 sockets and some +skills instead! Maybe use tribute set gloves or come up with another gear switch (maybe nero instead of what I have now).

That's actually a very good craft. The only thing missing is that last +1 paladin skill. As for your gloves, crafts are much better than in that they can roll with +2 paladin skills along with fire spell dmg, pierce and double MO.

On another note, Terror Strike on

might actually be useful for Holy Caster since it won't lock out your dragon skills and buff up your defense and spell damage.

Edit: Nvm, non-class Terror Strike oskill would only be +3 on paladin.

Exactly, I found out by making the RW ;)

I am not able to take screenshots sadly but there is a lot to improve on still even though fire dmg is around 22k-28k with -170 efr. What is left to do is to get trophies and the last few charms. That would mean getting:
Triune, Yshari, Uldy, Zorun Tzin, Atanna Khan, Lazarus and Void.

But I think I need to specifically gear up for those and I've never done them and the Ubers bible seems kinda outdated O-)

-170 EFR? well some monsters have 35 fire res but no more heroic shields so -100EFR much than.. and dmg 32-40k reachable even in craft but with good staff (i use

Yshari- needs 2rings there with wyrd (baal and diablo to apply OW and than fast kill with spell).
100OW... its hard to get good roll ripstar but its much easy roll

Wait, so you're saying that the difference between -170 and -100 isn't that big? It feels stronger. Maybe I'm just imagining. If I hadn't focused on getting the max -efr out of every piece and instead focused more on fire spell damage, I could've gotten way higher dmg output but I thougt that more pierce also helped a lot.

well. last time when i play in median there was immunity shields on some heroic bosses and was need make -199 for break that heroic shields.
Now in faq i see that some mobs have 35fire res.. so posibble -135... but not more than 40k dmg.
40k dmg and -100enemy resist its epic 80k cap= max dmg (and more than -100er was pointless vs regular mobs, and if get 41k with -100 or more dmg just become 1k , rolls).. if game mechanic was not changed.
And for now i see that 39k dmg and -95EFR just great.

For me in priority EF+bonus to ene% than mo spell dmg. Yeh good rolls to get also -efr on item takes some timeee...
