MARY'S JEDI KNIGHT (Paladin)

Updated for U51

My Jedi Knight build is a very survivable, self-sufficient, R+ capable SWF Paladin.
This build can solo E/R content.

Your healing is a combination of Lay Hands, Potions, Wands, and spells.
You want to run with potions/wands - especially at low level.
You are CHA main stat therefore you take and use greater color spray/glacial wrath as crowd control
Greater Color spray is your Jedi Mind Trick

The play style is that of a Jedi Knight - you are a lawful defender of the ways of the Force - therefore you take magical training @ lvl 1 to get your conjured weapon.

Your weapon is your lightsaber - the conjured feydark shortsword that improves as you level up.
This weapon is inherently ghost touch @ lvl 1.

You will wear heavy armor.
Your off hand must be empty: no shield, no orb, nothing in your off hand
Your mainstat is CHA - the conjured blade is CHA to hit/dmg automatically.
Your deity selection will be Vulkoor, your favored weapons short swords.
You must take the balance skill for Single Weapon Fighting

This build stacks Spell Resistance (SR).
There is a divergence in the DDO community, some love Spell Resist (SR) some players believe (SR) is useless. (SR) shields you from all non-damaging spells, unlike MRR which helps you mitigate damaging spells. So an enemy caster throws a fireball at you, that is your MRR. A second enemy caster casts hold person on you, that is your Spell Resistance - the Hold spell must first penetrate your spell resistance. To do this the enemy must succeed a spell penetration roll vs your Spell resistance; if the roll succeeds, your spell resistance shield is breached and you must then roll a saving throw vs the hold spell with whatever will save bonuses you have. But if however the enemy caster fails to penetrate your spell resistance, you see a blue shield effect and you are not affected by the spell at all - there is no saving throw roll needed. You are protected.

Gear focus should be on CHA>CON>STR>WIS

@ lvl 1 you want to spend your 1st action points getting your Illusory weapon from Feydark.
Make sure you conjure a new one after you level up as they get more powerful as you level.

@ lvl 6 you take quicken for your color spray for CCing mobs and reapers - because you are CHA mainstat your DC will be effective. You can boost it with the illusion necklace from Ravenloft though i recommend wearing the part of the family set from sharn @ 15.

This build is displayed as a 28 point 1st life friendly build -
players with multiple life characters will be stronger than displayed.

[Dark_Lord_Mary]

I played this build on HCL then on Sarlona for 3 paladin lives -

MAX CHA works the best. Fatesinger is the best DPS destiny for this build hands down.

This build is very survivable.

Greater color spray AKA your Jedi Mind Trick works in R up to endgame Legendary content.

I exclusively use my conjured lightsaber feydark blade which is CHA to hit and dmg inherently, the dmg is very good. The max CHA allows my lay hands to hit very hard, and allows my greater color spray to work as an effective CC from lvl 1 to 30.

[Maidenstalker]

That is a marvelous build. I like how the theme ties in with useful skills and abilities, etc. It really meshes together.

Kudos!

[Gnominal_Aphasia]

Hi, currently testing HC builds for season 5 and have just rolled a copy of your one! TYVM

I don't have the extra racial or universal AP tomes... so I began thinking. I haven't played Paladin for years, and since my return to DDO a few years ago I have only been playing casually on and off. But the game inspires me with so many unique builds and the community is great [you+] as many share and propose different builds and playstyles.

Initially, I thought, OK, I'll just lose 2 AP into Sacred Defender... no biggie. But then I thought about shortswords and longswords... as KotC tier 4 now provides Knight's Training; couple this with a longsword with an inherent improved critical profile (not many!) there would be a strong argument to take both CHA to Hit and Damage abilities from Feydark Illusionist. This could be achieved by either spending 12 AP or losing +1 CHA and taking the extra +1 save from Reality Bulwark.

This got me thinking further... Hardcore is about survival (and get out of jail free cards). So I began thinking if I only spent 10 points into CHA at character creation (starting with an 18 CHA instead 20), this would free up 6 points that I could use elsewhere. Initially I thought of INT... 16 INT would allow the build to maximize Balance, Heal, UMD and Jump. This would be at the price of -1 to saves and UMD checks, less damage, less LoH heals and -1DC to Greater Color Spray. But I think it would be a good trade off.

I scratched my head again... if I opted out of Shortswords as a Favored Weapon [Drow pre-requisite], I could take Longswords instead. Hmmm, this would let me choose Aasimar as my race. I could start with a 18 CHA (including +1 bonus from Bond of the Protector) and free up 3 points. If I also started on 14 CON, this would give me another 4 points to play around with in character creation:

Aasimar Paladin 20 (32 point build)
STR8 DEX8 CON16 INT12 WIS15 CHA18* would be one possibility,
*including +1 CHA from Bond of the Protector
This would be a -2 CHA version of your build, less damage with shortswords, but accessing longswords as Favored weapons with better than normal critical profile. The question in my mind is would Shortswords be the better option in Hardcore as it isn't guaranteed [unlikely even] I would pull a named Longsword with improved critical profile. The heroic Nightforge Avenger Blade is very solid upto Epics but the Illusionary Shortsword is extremely attractive in Hardcore. What to do?
Enhancement Tree-wise, I'd initially go with KoTC 41 AP, Aasimar 7 AP and Feydark Illusionist 11 AP... leaving "only" 21 AP in Sacred Defender which means no tier 4 abilities.

Getting into Epic levels, and with U51 in mind, by selecting one of the new caster Epic Destinies, you automatically get the Magical Training feat which would free up the Level 1 feat choice... so alternatively

Drow Paladin 20 (28 point build)
STR8 DEX14 CON14 INT12 WIS10 CHA18
or
Aasimar Paladin 20 (32 point build)
STR8 DEX13 CON16 INT12 WIS10 CHA18*

and swapping Magical Training for Precision just before levelling to 20.

I can imagine that some players would opt for a Bladeforged variant, especially for Hardcore, though no precision option realistically.

Anyway, thanks again for the build, and the inspiration... I think I'll try running both Drow and Aasimar variants to 20 by the end of the month to compare.

EDIT for HC build testing, I generally run each character from 1 to 10 using no account resources (no plat, no items) and only joining a guild at level 10 to (sort of) replicate the early HC guilds lack of buffs. One of the funnier builds I've tried is Shadar-Kai FvS 1 Warlock 18 using Feydark Illusionary Shortsword.

[Hamalis]

Greetings everyone, I'm new to the game and I have decided to use this build as my main character. I am level 14 at the moment, can you give me a detailed list on the bis gear for level 20?

[Kilnedric]

For a returning player, can you explain why you can't offhand an orb? I don't see what is preventing that?

Thanks!

[unbongwah]

Offhand Versatility: "You gain special bonuses for fighting with specific things in your offhand while Single Weapon Fighting. If you have nothing in your offhand, your ability score modifier contributes 25% more to your melee damage. If you have an Orb or a Runearm in your Offhand, your Vorpal strikes cause you to gain Versatile Empowerment. Versatile Empowerment: Your spells automatically crit for the next 5 seconds. Cooldown: 20 seconds."

Question: why does everyone put only 10 points into wisdom for their paladins? Does this not prevent them from casting their divine spells? Minimum wisdom 10+spell level? What am I missing. Thanks.

i dont even go 10 i go 8



but the reasoning is that you just need that wis to cast it and it can be satisfied with tomes, items guild buffs bards etc

Any item, potion or other "+Wisdom" effect (including the +2 Guild Buffs) can do the job - it's your active Wisdom, not your base Wisdom, that matters.

You can even swap-equip a +Wis item to cast, then swap back out to "fighting gear" - altho' not having Cure X Wound spells handy could be problematic.

Many Ranger builds, and melee casters, do the same thing.

Thought I'd add onto this. Been running this for HC S6.

It's a different build to say the least.

The feyblade that's summoned, here is it at 15 with Holy Sword.
