Mongyu Elemental Paladin Guide! [PvM]

[Mongyu]

Since I have realm down from MF'n and finding nothing.. I might as well kill time making this. Anyways this build is meant to for PvM not PvP.. Youll get own silly in a PvP.. Anyways.. This build can do Hell baal runs solo with full house.. Ive tried it.. If built correctly if will also have 75% block, MAX resist in hell. The whole strat is to have conviction on. To lower their resist, and use lighting (Foh), fire (Trang Fireball), or cold (Merc) on your enemies.. And this build is very flexible.. The only thing you need to MAX is Con,Foh, and Holy shock.. And you can put the rest into whatever you like.. :madatu

Enjoy..:bouncy And let me know what you think about this guide.. :sleepy

[Shadow-Hunter]

Looks Special ... what kind of dmg can a pala like this get?

~Shadow

[Mongyu]

Adverage 4.3k Foh.. Not sure with combat gc.. The fireball damage is pretty decent too.. Forgot the fire ball damage.. But I could take out some light/cold immunes with 4 of them trang fire balls.. And the merc can do alot too with them facets.. Especaily the splash damage from their glacial spikes. :hbut

[Mr.Sloth]

this guide makes no sense. how does foh pwn pvm? its the other way around. foh own pvp. Not pvm.
How do you use?
Would fireball do that much dmg even with convic? only +11 skills. this guide is very much so questionable

[Mongyu]

Yeah.. With convict sometimes it will cancel out their immune.. And you have all skill points left over.. And what the hell do you mean Foh cant own PvM.. Lol? Glaical spike freezes.. Enough time to Foh and kill..

[Mr.Sloth]

Good sir. foh hits 1 target. with merc yes this would work. i like the idea. but fireballs dmg is so low so why even use? i like your idea. i think just stick w/ith merc and foh. but i dont like the idea that u have to rely on merc so much.

Perhaps u can show me ur char so i can c in action? im on uswest too:zohl8

[Mongyu]

This was a long time ago.. I just begun playing again.. Haha.. It was back in 1.1.. But Foh is quick.. Even though it hits one foe at a time.. 1 Hit killer.. With your merc with that Glacial spike.. Your merc can even kill before you get a chance to.. Will atleast thats the idea.. And thats why you use a stone for the merc.. Just thought that people would like to try a new successful build.. And fireball can kill trust me..

[FWI]

With that build you get +11 Conviction.

-resist is capped at slvl 25 at -150 resist, so you would only need 14 base points to get the max with that gear. This can help you use your points a little better.

Since you recommend max block, here is the formula so you can put it in your guide.

Max Block formula:
%to block=(%block on shield+bonus from skill)*(dex-15)/(clvl*2)

I also recommend maxing holy shield prior to using defiance as a defense synergy. Holy shield helps with too much to not max it first.

Also even though its pvm, a little bit of strategy would help the guide. Let em know what they are trying to do with certain areas - how to deal with croud control, bosses, etc.

I like your gear choices. Well educated.
