The Tantrumdin

[inSenZe]

oh so sorry, I have just found that section, thanks!

But now I wonder, that by the goal is to crushing blow enemies while dealing as much elemental damage as possible are major and do some extra damage through proc, then why you chose paladin for this but not an amazon (with huge natural source of flat elemental/magic damage and imba SoV) or a barbarian (with godly Nephalem weapons and insance %spell bonus via Mark of the Wild), an assassin is very good too with those ways,doom and very very flexible.
Thanks!

Why paladin? It's the best class to use tantrum untwinked and his class skills complement the play style the most
- Great mobility with divine apparition against ranged enemies. Other classes, apart from assassin, are too clunky to use this ability to the maximum potential without a void charm (and assassin is too squishy without charms).
- Tantrum physical damage sucks - paladin has the best way to sustain himself in combat with this in mind (tb + vindicate), without doing anything extraneous.
- Damage of paladins is on par with all the other classes, even though it is probably the lowest on the character screen. Reason - they have a 4 frame attack speed and all others are way slower in comparison. This also means paladins proc basically twice as much on striking stuff as anyone else.
- Great support for elemental damage gear (55 free pierce ALL from euphoria) & spell procs like toesie / hive clouds (superbeast spell damage).
- Passive damage spells that work great with tantrum's close range combat - SoD, VoJ/VoR

Also it seems you are a bit confused - spell damage does not increase tantrum damage (apart from on the LCS) & EWD is a dumpster stat for reasons explained many times.

No need for more than 2 - 4 AR orbs, delpending on if you failed lucky upgrade or not. Put the rest of those in ED. 15cb is a given of course.

I don't understand why this would be bad? I thought only shrine crafting re-rolls the modifiers.

Blessing the bow is a good thing

Correct. Shrine Blessing just adds the shrine bonus I had a brainfart up there.

I'd like to offer a free CtC Shower of Rocks tantrum bow if any new players are thinking on starting a Tantrumdin.

Just let me know
