Hi all, I quit when soe took over but have come back now desert have took over, I really want to make my paladin deck again. A lot seems to have changed, could any ironfist players be so kind in pointing me in the right direction to acquiring what I need please. Champs Spells Relics Equips All the above I need help with, not asking for runes just a list of what I should be aiming for
I'll list the most expensive/hard to acquire runes that are key to a paladin deck. Champs: Angel of Protection, Angel of Mercy, Ironfist Minister, Northern Cross Priestess, Northern Cross Fanatic, Charger Knight, Attendant Squire Spells: Consecrate the earth, Blink, Might of Ironfist, Mark of Redemption. Relics: Banner, Earthshaker, Guard Tower. Equips: Holy Blade of Valdac.
hmm lets see I have Minister, Fanatic, cte, moi, mor, banner, blade. I am currently going through all my runes at the forge but that wont get me the limiteds or legendarys, do player stores exist anymore?
Poxbox.com is the only one. Instant trades are cool but trade sharks gutted the inventory mostly. Maybe something you want is still available though.
I cannot do anything until my trade ban is up apparantly migrated old accounts are classed as new players and we need protection =/ so cannot trade for 2 weeks.
To be fair the last expansion I actually played and knew proper values of runes was the grimlic descent......if I did trade now I would probably get scammed.
Order of Acquiring Runes by Efficiency and Impact for a CTE deck. Ironfist Minister - Great Damage, Tanky vs Magic, Power-Turn Enabler Veilwalker - Ranged Damage, Support Abilities, Perma-Spell Protection Vengeant Knights - Tanky, Antagonize, etc. Attendant Squire - Support, Power-TurnEnabler Northern Cross Priestess - Ranged, Relic Summoner, AoE Heal Northern Cross Cardinal - Command: Paladin, CTE, Ranged Northern Cross Fanatic - Tanky, Damage, AoE Awestruck "Fluff Runes" Euan Charger Knight Exemplar Magnus Use a generic spell set: Notables: Hammerstrike Mark of Redemption Might of Ironfist Relics: Warbanner Earthshaker Guard Tower Equip: Up to you I use Vial
Thank you markoth, the ones I am missing are: Squire, Cardinal, Charger, exemplar, magnus Can fillers used instead of those until I can acquire them?
Absolutely. Instead of Squire you can substitute a Dwarven Sergeant with very little noticeable difference. The closest you can come to Cardinal is the Angel of Mercy which is another LEG but if you are just looking for a cheap ranged magic damage option the Favored Nomad fits the bill and also benefits from CTE. You can cover the loss of Command: Paladin (No cardinals or AoM) by substituting Magnus for Ironfist Inquisitor which is an Exotic. Charger and Exemplar are purely fluff runes that you can do without. Fill out your deck with units like Sharpshooter, Scarlet Wing, Militia, etc as you see fit.
Crusaders are a strong choice. Especially if you have the spell and ability support to keep him alive (Righteous Shield and Cast: Despoil) . I wouldn't run more than one but if you do make sure that he is landing the killing blows to get the most out of battle leader.
CKs, Maggy and Bastion all become important/viable if you run Atttendants. If you can get him, sarge like Marko said, or Leoss monks might even be better than Attendants.
Squire attedants Mobilize all of my paladins battlegroups. If you aren't playing 2 in your paladin bg's you are wrong.
- Like most things in pox, its worth it until it gets hard champ removal used on it. I dropped it after repeated doombringer encounters. Too many beaters to choose from in pally's sadly.
I run crusaders, and Vengant Knights as my heavy hitters, With an Inquisitor for support and dmg Angel of Mercy to boost healing, paladin commander, and increase range for Bastion and Angel of Protection I use Northern Cross Militia, and Northern cross Templars as my grunt units Northern Cross Priestess for mass heal and ranged support along with an iron fist minister Spells are Impervious, Righteous Deflection, Burning crusade, and desperate heal Relics I run a Warbanner and an Ank of Valadic (Celestial spears from NC Priestess)
