purifier vs paladin for auto attack ranged setup

[sutasafaia]

I am wondering if anybody has tried out a ranged paladin yet to see how they compare to each other. it seems like purifier would be tankier but would have virtually no aoe compared to purifier? The more i read about proc stacking auto builds the more i want to try one but not really sure the best way to go. Also a little tired of rerolling

Purifier IMO. FS getting lots of love via skill mods on items. Also, dagallon’s helm/guns are hard to beat.

EDIT: As avyctes says, Brimstone on ranged = bullet hell on crack

ah, so fire strike is dependant on those modifiers? i compared demo and oathkeeper ranged attacks in the early levels and fire strike couldn’t even come close to Righteous Fervor. it did like 1/3rd-1/2 of the damage and even less against fire enemies, so i was thinking about going for pistol/shield paladin as well

Brimstone really makes the difference hardcapped and softcap explosive strike are really good for ranged builds,its hard to match wit other auto attack.But idk about gun and shield.DW pistols will provide a lot of damage an life steal.

makes sense, i guess. shield was just an idea, so one can add oathkeeper attack modifiers.
