[3.10] Sovyn's Lazy Pally - Tanky Templar with Max Block

Hi Sovyn, I have a question. Do you get more life from the lions eye because of the shield passives or jusy armor increase?
also how is your dps so High I cant get past 30k with the atrizi flask.
this is for static strike.

Hi Kot, Just armour from the shield. It's whatever is 'above the line' depending on the type of shield it could be armour, energy shield, evasion or some combination. The shield passives will boost just those stats. Nothing below the line.

My DPS is a combination of levels and gear. If you want, you can take all my DPS nodes before the defensive nodes which would be fine on regular leagues. Fortunately most of my gear is inexpensive so you can come close (the gloves exactly like that are a rare find though, one of the perks of playing for years). Gems levels and quality help also.
I decided to try the Bringer of rain helmet to get max block, and now i'm having difficulty with maxing out my all res. How are you able to get max res, any advice to would be helpful!

Jewels. Block + resists is quite doable, often 10 chaos and less. Some on gloves and ring and belt also. We get a bit from the tree, Diamond Skin for example.
Had to create an account just to thank you for the excellent guide Sovyn!
Used this guide like over a year ago and it worked like a charm, decided to try again with all the new updates and stuff.

Armor is now higher priority than it was previously with change to Ondars?

Anyway, again, great guide and massive props to your dedication, over 500 pages already! :D

Hi! I read the guide, but did not see the description about the "bandits quest "...

Veronim, bandits quests should be in the faq at the end.

Welcome back, Wombat! Armour is more useful than evasion now that Ondar's was nerfed. Neither is a primary defense, block is first, life is second.
Today's Update:

In the ongoing boss kill speed testing series we have the following results:

(as always, Bringer of Rain so MPD and FA supports plus the following)

Cyclone(13) - concentrated effect - added fire damage - Weapon Elemental Damage
Time for all three harvest bosses: 21.3 seconds average

Lightning Strike(13) - Weapon Elemental Damage - added fire damage - multistrike
Time for all three harvest bosses: 20.5 seconds average

Lightning Strike(13) - Weapon Elemental Damage - Physical Projectile Attack Damage - multistrike
Time for all three harvest bosses: 29 (didn't bother doing multiple runs)

Frost Blades(13) - Weapon Elemental Damage - added fire damage - multistrike
Time for all three harvest bosses: 32 seconds average

Ice Crash(13) - Concentrated Effect - Weapon Elemental Damage - Hypothermia
Time for all three harvest bosses: 27.7 seconds average

Ice Crash(13) - Concentrated Effect - Weapon Elemental Damage - Cold Penetration
Time for all three harvest bosses: 26.4 seconds average

Comments: As you can see, Lightning Strike is looking good now in the latest patch. Unfortunately it is directional so we shall see how it does with clear speed testing later on. It certainly was chunking these bosses down super fast (Added Fire variation, PPAD need not apply for bosses anyway). As a runner up, Cyclone is good as always but very small AOE and it is possible to run out of mana if excellent technique is not always employed.

Next up, all the usual suspects that I did with Concentrated a couple pages ago done with WED instead. Also, Wild Strike which is still leveling to 13. I'll summarize everything once I'm done in a few days. I think it's somewhat safe to say now though that the lightning skills win.
