Plague seems... Useless? Been farming k3k for a while and doing some 120 charms inbetween, poison damage from plague is not even enough to finish half hp skellies without totem buffs. Proc from Scales of the serpent does more damage than this thing even.

Increases the mana cost and the damage gained is minuscule.

The reason you max plague is to put more points into dragonheart. The poison damage will get better the more +skills you get, that being said, your main source of damage is still the phys. Theres no other skill to max instead of plague.

Barg howl

How does this make any sense? Weapon gives literally no phys damage and focuses on poison damage (which is kinda bad). Lamha gloves is a caster glove so idk why you use it in a melee build? Spirit walker is a caster gear as well. And belt is again neutraldin belt which gives next to zero improvement over holy melee guide.

Your gear makes literally no sense with holy melee gear. Its like mixture of neutraldin with holy melee and i dont think thats a viable build.

And its no where near cheap. Weapon alone is more than 500tg

Really nice guide! Currently playing a Holy Melee 2H Pally at 125. I feel like a huge glass cannon. As long as I can do damage I survive, for the most part... wearing a lot of SUs/Sacred crafted stuff, some BiS, some not. This guide will help me work towards the end-game now.

Quick question, there are some SU boots that give 100% duration to Solar Flare. I'm wearing them atm, but forget what they are called. Curious why they aren't being mentioned here. These boots effectively reduce the number of Solar Flares you have to do throughout the life of your Pally by half, so it's kind of a big deal. Much easier to manage the skill rotation, every 20 seconds I just refresh Solar Flare and the Innate buff. I suspect I'll have to upgrade them out eventually, but for now my wrists are definitely thankful...

Thanks for the guide!

he's doing the plague build

he's hitting to spread plague and all his gears are there to improve poison damage, adjudicator alone multiplies plague damage by a ton

in theory it should be a great alternative, obviously not physical at all

how does malleus maleficarum do this season, since it will remove plague damage but gives you pretty good stats overall? have you tested it?

i have been theorycrafting an exorcism build that uses similar items to fsink's build, except shrill sacrament boots for the exo. I assume adjudicator is too broken for the spells it buffs and so the plague build will probably be better, but i am not certain.
