Saw your post before you edited it out. I don’t just post here based on theorycraft so feel free to have those real melees you know who have trophies in their profiles post here :)
I personally prefer cb gloves for the extra stats and life over the eth self rep ias gloves. Kind of a trade off for life vs def but I think the cb ones tend to do better
Tap duels are more exciting imo. It’s rng on top of rng so can always come from behind with a lucky tap ^_^
Legendary melee, Top Melee, Barbarians..Circus or BvB..
there are Zealots with many Zeal tournaments trophies
and experience, also different rules of duel in USAeast or Europe tho..
included Me, My Personal Experience and facts from real duels last 3 years is that everyone who focus on Maxing his Zeal Damage wins,
thats all.
And so in each of your item slot just use best melee damage item.
Defense is caped to ~36.000 Life to ~4000 and attack rating to ~25.000 thats all.. everything other is useless,
when you are dealing 90% Deadly Strike and 4000 minimum damage 8000 maximum damage.
If you are dealing damage like 2000 minimum 6000 maximum and 70% ds, than yes you have to Theory calculating and whatever about your defense etc to survive but u will loss versus opponent with Maxed his zealot damage thats all.
When u dueling with Exile? Life Taps allowed??
Than is no reason to not allow Grief or Death also,
and than is comoletely clear for all that anything other is unimportant and can be used whatever.
I never understood those rules to be honest..its not any logic than to allow Zodbugs Exile Hybrids and ban griefs deaths..
If so than ban all this craps and play with Pure Melee Physical damage items as this duels are about
Thats why was created rules to ban Elemental Damage in pure physical melee duels in our europe duels..
You dont want elemental or magic attacker, why you will eant it in pure physical duel to show best physical win.
Good luck guys with Zealots in that new diablo game called resurrected!
Items that wins duels are:
Steelrends >
Stormshield >
Highlords >
Gorerider >
Great Unique item for Zealot is 2800def 2off sks 15str Templars Might Eth Sacred Armor.
Shaftstop is another great item,
But is Complicated Buil than and not so effective until you get really great Rares to combine with, especialy an gz Rare Shield Diadem and Weapon.
About helmets, best:
Diadem 2 Sox vision 20+str 15+dex 15+life
with 30ias 80dmg or rare jewels
or
Crafted Armet 2 Sox vision 300+def 15+life 10%ds
Any rare helm high def whatever is Worse at all.
About Life or Attack speed, or Strength points Putting to wear gear,
No matter to max life, is caped to 4k no matter what, its enough,
Putting strength to wear Great damage item or armor,
is Welcomed and better to do than care of vita points,
Str also increasing your zeal damage and zeal damage matters.
Using Lower attack speed weapon with Great damage and use 15ias 40ed jewels for it is Welcomed and Better than care about higher attack speed weapon but with Lower damage to use rare jewels..
And Minimum Damage on the Weapon Matters alot in Zeal vs Zeal so will be allways Best Weapon base for rare weapons Legendary Mallet, Seraph rod, Ettin Axe or Devil Star..
Hydra Edge also better for zeal Than Berserker Axe.
If allowed Exile Forti, than no reason to not allow Grief or Death again..if this items are fun to play still for users than oks.. ^^
And Breath Of The Dying is very good weapon to use if you dont find any great rare weapon
If you play zeal in new diablo game,
There is possible many things cause i dont know what new blizzards will make, what mechanics will work or not work and what rules will players create..
Gl guys again with Zealots!
