    Default Bloodstone Pally Build, any ideas?

    Hey guys, been building Pallys and lvling them to about 3 when I figure out that its not the build I want. I have searched these threads for ideas but havent seen anything that pops out at me.

    Heres the deal, looking for a build that will maximize the use of a bloodstone when Im high enough to use it. I have thought that using a twohander keen axe like Carniflex would be best but then again I have a vorple kurki that I thought might be good with a TWF pally. Ive been a cleric pretty much all my carreer and its getting old and looking for a change.

    A 32pt build is what I need, open to all ideas, thanks.

    The Bloodstone is +6 Seeker.

    THe Sword of Shadows is an Obvious choice to maximize Damage Potential.

    For an option that doesn't require specific Raid Loot, consider Kopesh.

    Kopeshes are the highest one-handed DPS weapon in the game. This has been proven. 1d8 19-20x3 (17-20x3 with IC: Slashing)... that will leverage the Seeker +6 on a Bloodstone VERY nicely! I had a Bloodstone on loan from a friend for a while, and it did wonders to my Crit rate... and that was a while ago, so no + to Crit Damage.

    Consider that Kopesh means +18 Damage on each Crit!

    Damage from a +5 Kopesh of Righteousness:
    1d8 + 5 (Weapon) + 2 (Righteousnes) + 9 (Strength) + 1 (Weapon Focus) + 5 (Power Attack) = 1d8 + 22 = 23-30 base damage

    (23-30 + 6 (Seeker) ) x 3 = 29-36x3 = 87-108 on a Crit!!!

    since paly is generally a AC build...Kopesh with shield from Reaver is what i do...of course a battlebard 2hander with holyburst of maiming is really nice too...

    My newest character (edit: 11 Paladin/3 Fighter) uses one almost exclusively to good effect. All of the above mentioned weapons are x3 weapons, but so are Warhammers, and Weighted only comes on Bludgeoners.

    I ended up with DC29 (30 once I hit 1750) stuns with 4% chance of stun per hit using the Hammer of Leaden Clouds, which makes it so a majority of your attacks are criticals. I don't usually do as much damage as my pure fighter dwarven tactician, and it doesn't land quite as often, but I'm usually right up there in kills while maintaining a 55-60ish AC (no raid loot yet either).

    All done with Completionist (again) and Epic Completionist. First character to 30 on Sarlona* (before the rollback).

    I not too long ago added a Bloodstone to my dual khopesh wielder, and it has definitely helped my DPS. I don't see not confirmed crits at all. I could just be missing them, but it has upped the DPS visibly.
