ArchPaladin Class

What are your opinions on the class?
Is it worth getting?

It's worth getting simply for the bragging rights, it's not an easy class to obtain. Strong mega boss type fighting capacity because of nuke (get a Healer, don't waste your mana on Hymns for party). Useless at farming.

Stone Crusher and ArchPaladin can easily match Binky too. It's a very good large HP bossing class.
I have to say though; I got it the day after it was released and I haven't used it very much tbh.

I got it 2 days after it was released and I'm a free player, had to play for some crazy straight hours tho, kinda hard to get. It works great against bosses, useless for farming. I just spam the 1st skill and then use the last one 80 seconds later for crazy damage. StoneCrusher still way better than this in my opinion!

Actually I gave it another try at farming and turns out it works wonders. Always full hp and high damage on up to 3 enemys with all skills, plus a 3k critical here and there. Loving it now :P

Garbage at farming, worth it if you want to flex about it.

[Rudol Von Stroheim]

The only worth I derived from it was the 50 stack on the first skill to do damage, the last skill to launch huge nukes, but especially the third skill to use in a party to decrease enemy dmg against a boss by 90% (and yours by 50%).

Theoretically (since I normally play alone or with botters in main botting places) it could be used great in a party to kill bosses that can do high damage like undead ragore (mesed up keyboard), binky, ultra alteon, or any others that can or nearly one-shot you

I've used AP a lot. I do mean a lot.
I have used it to solo most LOLNOPE bosses, like Colossal Primarch, Mutated Void Dragon, Undead Raxgore, Chaos Lord Ultra Alteon.

It's excellent. Especially against Undead with the Commandment getting the bonus damage against Undead, and SM:E having a chance to 3s stun Undead.

It's a fun, versatile class. Right now full lucky works great, likely Hybrid will be the enhancements for it come the rewrite.


Also, for farming, it now has maxed range and mixing Commandment with SM:E is great.

I used the class a bit more and for bosses like undead raxgore archpal is the mvp.

If they can't tear you to shreds like ultra alteon then you could use the 1st, second, and 4th skill constantly to heal and do ludricous amounts of damage. The key is full luck enh to regen all you mana from a 4k crit from commandment (skill 1)

however guys like raxgore who constantly use counter attack will constantly make you watch out else you one-shot yourself

Ultra alteon who easily 1-shots or binky who occasionally nukes you will NEED the third skill and a team. watch out as your dmg is cut in half so you'll be a glorified healer with weaker mana regen as the crits are lower too.

You can easily counter this worry. Use bonus damage weapons -> Link to list.

Of course.

They recently had the boost added to them, silently. Sneaky AE!

To correct their fuck up. The boosted class is what the class was supposed to be like in the first place.

Are you talking about the items that have a dmg boost when you said class?


Anyways if you have the BLOD AND the Necrotic sword of Doom then you could completely skip the problem of the third skill's 50% dmg decrease as one kills living and the other undead monsters with 50% more dmg.

I misread what he was saying. AE did a buff to ArchPaladin shortly after it was released because it's build wasn't doing the amount of damage it was supposed to. On release AP was a waste of time to get, that's what I was saying. I didn't realize he was replying about the extra damage on items.

It's very much worth it to get it now.

The nuke can hit like 20k+ crits easy even without stacks.
