Looking for some advice on a PvP build for pubs. The idea is a charger pally with a widow switch.

e death decap with widowmaker swap. (Any other recommended wep?)

Ideally a pally viso, coa and g face for helm swaps. Fort, highlords, gores, dungo, dracs (maybe Kb gloves better? Rends?)

Full inventory of scs for dmg (maybe 3x451 for poison).

Anything I’m missing here? Planning on max fant and charge synergies.

Charge already has high % ar bonus combined with fanaticism and any hard points into blessed aim. Visio isn’t going to offer you much tbh.

You really need more base AR to help scale your total AR.

Recommend either shako or coa depending on matchup. Typically with a 100ar jewel in it.

Can also go the guillames helm route.

Against melee chars, I recommend e death Ettin + Phoenix shield or stormshield or Almagest necros for some form of block.

You will be incredibly squishy against any melee char without a shield.

But widowmKer is just for the bad duelers, such as Cooley, as a crutch.

Would be much better off going a liberator, which is charge/hammer , or VT, which is smite + foh.

Goal was to actually secure some FRW on the viso circ and get FrW scs in my inventory to kite opponents and go in for clutch charges. Making it for fun so I want the build to be dynamic.

Good advice on the charge I didn’t know it added so much AR.

When you already have high AR % modifiers, base attack rating, either through + attack rating or Dex is much more valuable than visio.

The opposite is true on assassin, they genenralt have high base AR, through fools claw and raven frost, charms etc, but have low AR% bonus, given they only get like lvl 7 WW and claw mastery is relatively low AR%, making visio highly important.


Also for your widowMaker build, GA doesn’t need AR. Another reason to not care much about visio mod.

You will genenrally want your head / belt / 1 unique ring be your defensive pieces, based on what you are fighting.

Also as mention, vs any melee attacker type, for sure roll with shield.
