With the Ronin expansion, what would be the best Paladin battlegroup if you are able to acquire 2x of each? What are your thoughts on the new Paladin, Amethyst Wing? Are they viable in Paladins outside of other wings? How about Elemental Warstaff, Inquisitor Magnus, Northern Cross Cardinal and Northern Cross Templar?
amethyst hmm, lets see, if you run him at his lowest cost, 72 nora, i think theres betters options for that role and that price, elemental worth at least x1 cardinal still the same, templar still the same so its up to you and im run magnus at 80 nora but just because i love him .... im not a pro but this its what i run: http://poxbase.com/deck/cpPc8tctNCw...6Ic1tcfgs5Xs7=s1Ms1Ys6Wsls7Hs4-sPs5VrirYehe1v
http://poxbase.com/deck/CpPC8tChZctNcp2c4tcj7c5jc6Ic1Pc1tcfgc4-s5Xs4Bsls7Hs6MsPs8Ds87sKrHrYe2Oe1ve3i Still testing it out. Probably going to end up dropping Silverclan Tinkerer and Charger Knight. I haven't deployed Charger Knight in forever. I'll probably add another Warstaff or 2 Amethyst Wings depending on how things go. Inquisitor Magnus is still boring. NC Cardinal isn't worth running 80 nora, 5 speed or whatever he is. NC Templar doesn't bring much to the table now that you can't have Sunder and Book Burn. Warstaff/Amethyst Wing is probably a better choice.
covah do you run 1 mercy with commander an another with cleasing aura? the same for angel of protection, do you run one cheaper and another with the expensive upgrades?
http://poxbase.com/deck/cpPC8tChZCtNCw9cFc6nc5jc7kc1tcfgc4-s5Xs4Bsls7Hs6MsPs8Ds87sKrHrYe2Oe1ve3i i run this. Ap gen too op but i'm think to replace tinkerer with a charger knight
This is what Im playing around with at the moment, just trying out the Amethyst wing to see how he plays. Usually have a second Minister in there or a Isran.
Do you need the PoV in there with AoM, Aria and Consecration? Is NC Militia worth an add to Bodyguard the more expensive champs?
This is what I am playing with at the moment. I am considering trying to fit in an Angel of Mercy and toying with the idea of dropping a Disarm for Maca/GC or Blink though I keep using it so :Shrug: I swap back and forth between Guard Tower and Unobstructed View almost every game. Guard Tower lets your ranged units go toe to toe with melee units and gives you another contest option but UV is global. @Axeraiser are you finding Paladin Commander worth the 2x include?
What do you guys think about running Blessing of Al'Mara with Angel of Mercy for the added Improve Range?
It's a good spell but I think IS has such a huge arsenal of great spells it gets elbowed out due to limited space. I have been planning to spend a few days swapping Blessing in for Tales of Valor but havnt gotten around to it yet.
I run both my Angel of Mercys with Cleansing Aura and both my AoProtections at 89 build. I personally don't think Blessing of Alamara is worth it unless it's on Earth Golem.
For some reason I never noticed he had Impassioned before until quite recently, with a banner out and Impassioned and Hold the line he's sitting at like 17 damage 6 defence 60hp, thats a pretty mean font contestor, throw on a Tales or Manual ( or both) for extra facesmashing. He's definitely worth the 2x since Ive started to use him more offensively and not just a supporting commander, also you can never have to many Command Dodges. It pains me terribly to leave out Isran and Aria for that big money wow factor but right now Paladin Commander and Warstaffs are doing it for me.
Gotta say i'm liking Amethyst Wing. A lot of people don't know about Vaporize so they end up double tapping.
Question. Do auras still count as Attacks? If one of your units has an aura and it procs on the opponents turn does the unit with Vaporize become Ethereal? Because that would be stupid strong.
