I havent done any zeal duels since 1.09 could you guys give me a rundown of the best/most popular setups?  What setup counters what?
Im thinking about converting two old paladins to zealots with different setups. Both will use 37* sc's. Either 36/20's or 3/20/20's or a mix.

Like i said, i havent done zeal vs zeal since 1.09 so i have no clue what actually works... I was planing/hoping to use a perfect eth Gladiators build and a perfect eth zodded  upgraded Shaft build.
Should i change those? any pointers are welcome


Question, is it non tap or tap? Then we can go from there.

For invo, use 9x 132/45s 10x 36/20s or 37x 320s depends on the weapon ur using though.

Wow the c/c setup is very nice but would 15/15/20/20 blood gloves and 141 shako 40/15 work well with that setup too?


The "Original" C/c setup is very nice but i haven't had time to switch coa/rends cuz shako/ias gloves looks ugly lol.

I also realized coa and rends helps with damage. It might be a big sacrafice in damage and defense just for more life. So coa and rends might be the way to go. I really like this guide for a reason.

You gain so much with coa and rends but also if you can find high def cb gloves then it might work but overall coa and rends is best overall choice imo. If you got glitch shako then it might work also since you need that def to work with c/c. :S
