Aww he cut through the left overs I was hopping he would start tossing them off
Quite easy fight with the good buffs and timing, the oil of combustion coating did a good job.
A Sorcadin (paladin 6 sorcerer 6) will get rid of the 10 layers of unstoppable faster (magic missile for ex). An Eldritch Blaster (2 warlock 10 thief or assassin for example) can probably oneshoot Orin direct.
Sorry is there a way to get +1 and +2 from the Mirror of Loss? Also how does the statue grant Bless?
Mirror of Loss can give +1 Cha and +2 Stat of your choice in that order.
The Statue of the True Hero gives Bless after long rest.
how often did you have to long rest as solo paladin considering you max out w so few spell slots
Actually this is my 1st run, so i do bosses solo tactician but the rest with party tactician for the dialogues/companions quests and the relax cruise mode and few long rests. (between each [big boss +1 side quest] in act 3)
But there are so many supplies, long rests spam would not be a problem and for example after this fight i still have my level 3 spells slots and executioner.
Add to this potions (speed, invis), scrolls and special items and you can do a lot even when the spell slots are depleted, also Paladin get improved smite : perma 1d8 radiant at level 11.
Next run (tempest cleric sorc or warlock sorc assassin or ?) i will do a run full solo, now that i know the 3 acts. (how many gold, potions, scroll, supplies i can get, rare item locations)
@@fgpraxis4463 ah gotcha i’m not really worried ab the supplies aspect, i was just trying to get an estimate bc i plan to challenge myself to do non-multiclass runs but i rarely long rest since its a hassle to reapply long rest buffs lol
and i’ve only played sorcadin in terms of paladin multiclasses so i was pretty spoiled w spell slots but good stuff for your first run!
@@Noir.e I think Sorcadin is slightly better than Paladin but it's very very close and actually it's because Sorcadin is tankier and has a very slightly higher burst dps.
Paladin have improved smite a permanent 1d8 so i consider all his spell slots are +1 level when compared to multiclass paladin : so it's 4 level 2 slots, 3 level 3 slots and 3 level 4 slots (all slots go into smite). Sorcadin will have 1 level 5 slot to increase a little the burst dps and 4 level 1 slots for a few shield and to compensate the absence of improved smite.
The main advantage of Sorcadin vs Paladin is not the number of spell slots, it's the ability to cast Shield or Mirror Image multiple times or Magic Missile or Fireball on high spell slot when Paladin will have to use scrolls at lower spell level, except for Shield which is a reaction no scroll option only one amulet.
In the end the difference in dps is very small, actually if you encounter 8+ consecutive medium/hard enemies Paladin will start output better dps per action thanks to his improved smite perma 1d8 while Sorcadin will have burned his 4 level 1 slots to keep same dps output. (8x1d8 vs 4x2d8)
Sorcadin will be a little tankier thanks to shield/mirror image during boss fight and have one or two well thought aoe spell to use, but Paladin is already so tanky and will have two additional auras that give immunity to charmed and frightened.
I was tempted to switch Sorcadin when around level 10, but i didn't after evaluating.
@@fgpraxis4463 I agree, sorcadin definitely has more utility (aoe/cc spells) and slightly more tankiness in terms of shield and mirror image but I do like the simplicity of pure paladin, and like you said, paladin is plenty tanky already.
But actually, I believe that pure paladin might have just as much or slightly more burst than sorcadin due to the 1d8 improved smite being a separate line of damage, which would then proc an extra line of things like phalar shriek and callous glow ring. This was shown in your combat log (Sarevok Vid) when it procs phalar a 3rd time on top of the main attack and smite. I haven’t done the full number crunching for that but if anything, that should be more burst over one lvl 5 spell slot. The extra feat is def nice too in case you want to squeeze in an ASI or alert along with savage attacker and GWM, or in your case, resilient: CON.
But I guess moral of the story is, you can’t go wrong with any type of paladin, pure or multiclass lol
Can you solo them without the Perilous Stakes Cheap shot before combat?
Yes.
Since my paladin one shot or two shots act 3 bosses, it should be between two shots and four shots without PS. All within 1 turn so not much change and Paladin is so tanky.
Also half the bosses are undead with vulnerability to radiant which is around half the damage the paladin does.
I did Ketheric 1 turn without Perilous Stakes (link in description), then i saw everybody was using PS on big bosses so i used it too it's not a glitch/bug and it requires good spell save DC.
It's not easy to success PS for pure martial classes and Paladin being a half caster class very martial oriented i needed to sacrifice one or two slot for some spell save DC bonus (amulet of the devout mostly).
23 buffs geez
