Well, that wasn't quite what I was expecting out of that build.... created pre-paladin nerf, and was actually rolling along just fine, after the wrath nerf though... disappointed. elf shield ded is a shit build now imho. Sure you can solo cabal inners, and your a defensive powerhouse.. (with temperance to boot) but.. literally everything you can do in combat is two round lag, except flamestrike. After the wrath nerf, I just ended up lagging myself to death in combat. I think Dakilebso had the only viable shield ded build left.. I suppose elf is maybe still a go, if you ended up with retribution or something.. but meh. I just wasn't really having fun with it anymore.. after first two empowerment sessions, I couldn't get in touch with Ignolmeer again for the last 150 hours of my characters life.. getting creamed all over the place by various nefarious scarabs :P time for something else.
