Ok, you are correct, I didn’t see that % sign. I guess I’m blind 
This build can definitely delete Ravager. It would probably just require Aether Cluster and maybe some pharma for extra hp and resistances like how all the other builds on the forum showcase quick Ravager kills. I think you would still also have to dodge the sunder here and there when not under the cluster. But yeah, the DPS is solid enough to delete Ravager quickly with all of those said defensive buffs.
Hi, if I want to build the fire version and use cinderborn, it is still very good, right? I lose like 15-20% storm spread but have double rr and I like fire element more. Also idk, for fire I have 2x hellfury band which gives total -20 fire res. Idk about the dmg of 20 fire rr vs 10% storm spread proc chance.
Just posted a 17 second Ravager kill.
I think Cinderborn would be a very different build. You firstly cannot even do Storm Spread with the full set because it uses a melee weapon and Storm Spread is exclusively a ranged WPS. If you meant doing a 3 piece Cinderborn setup, then no, 3 piece Cinderborn doesn’t really offer this build much. It doesn’t even convert our damage fully to fire which is what we would want/need if we wanted to do a fire rata build.
FYI double Hellfury Band does not stack, only unique debuffs would. You’d need to use Combustion Band if you wanted to get double fire RR on rings.
Hmm. I think this might be because there are a lot of items that provides physical retal in the gear. Might work if you use more pure fire retal gear. For RF to work, I think we need gears with a lot of fire and lightning retal, and yeah, might be suited for snb shieldbreaker which provides a lot of fire retal support, and shattering smash also has physical dmg converted to fire. For snb shieldbreaker, cinderborn might be possibly better right?
Finally, for storm spread proc, since you only converts rf dmg to physical, not globally. So what type of retal dmg is triggered by storm spread?
Weapon pool skills receive the same local conversions that their default attack replacer receives, so Storm Spread is also getting 100% fire damage converted to physical.
Interesting. Btw cinderborn fire retal paladin can work. Not mine but it worked https://youtu.be/SsciLOuX1vM?si=CJNFqV_tXqf35gxn
I never said it couldn’t work. I said it would be a different build. This build needs more greens because the idea is getting close to 100% Storm Spread but yeah banana’s build revolves less around Storm Spread and is also Aether instead of Physical.
It’s fire but has aether animation so I don’t like it very much. Anyway, good to know that how insane retal paladin in general can be.

Here we go again. Let’s see how this ends up in the next top 20 after the nerfs. We both know it won’t even get close. Because… “tone it down” for this kind of build means nerf to the ground.
Version 1.3.0.8 is very interesting. I might stay on it for a while, lots of new synergies to explore. Can always edit it and ACTUALLY tone down these “broken” builds to still remain strong and fun to play.
