Which Oathkeeper Class combo will you play first?

Devastation says hi. :slight_smile:

// Voted for Sentinel for the glory of the Great Guardian //

points at the ability to become a Reckoning tornado while also summoning Wind Devil tornadoes and then equipping Cindertouch for even more tornadoes

I like hoe paladin is the least popular so far:rolleyes:

I 'm gonna play hammerdin, but with spinblade. 2 winters veil, elemental balance etc.

templar would want a word with you.

Its early to tell. You know most of my fellow holy ones are still ssleep right now. you wait:undecided:

I will first play solo than after a while, i will choose a 2nd mastery. Probably Warlord but not sure yet.

currently the most tempting for me are Templar and Shieldbreaker, but my first try willl probably be a Warlord because it looks more evident on paper (tank with shield and physical dmg ftw)

for the two others i’ll probably wait for the GT update to see what’s possible to do :wink:

Paladin all the way.

Probably dota plebs who are stuck at Archon

That’s at the end. I mean those near the end. The ones that need max mastery are all good at some point. Devastation, then Blade Spirit is good with demonslayer, then Reap Spirit is good with Diviner. The ones before them, only Doom Bolt is good (that does damage)

[i]cries in Oppressor[/i]. Templar tho.

Poor Templar. :stuck_out_tongue: Hopefully Turrion’s Reprisal will get a bit of Oathkeeper support at least. Serenir’s Commendation too, though that might end up being more of a Paladin item. Don’t think I’ve ever seen anybody even use the latter, come to think of it. :eek:

As soon as the Templar talks started it got one vote. If this continues my Oppressor will be overtaken. Templar looks like it has the least synergy of all OK classes, imo. Oathkeeper is a shield mastery and we expect it to be tanky so you’ll be attracted less to Arcanist defensive skills. Also since OK=shield and Arcanist = offhand, there’s kind of a conflict of weapon choice. And Arcanist doesn’t have relevant RR. I guess it will turn out to be like Vanilla Battlemage unless Crate gives it a good set, then it’ll turn out to be like AoM battlemage, which is a very shitty class unless you use Krieg or Spellscourge.

Obviously, first will be sentinel with retaliation damage (I want to saw by my own eye how retaliation damage becomes more powerful than now with this new ā€œretalation-to-attackā€ mechanics)
Second - archon with cyclone

Hm, I have 40 lvl Occultist build without second mastery … Will try it with OA too. Next 2 builds probably will be with soldier or shaman and arcanist.

Oppressor, Archon, Shieldbreaker or Sentinel depending on synergies

Sentinel first. I am working on an occultist now and then. Will probably park him at lvl 50 untill FG.

After that… No idea really.

All of them probably. But it’s really hard to say without knowing how the full skill tree looks like. And looks like we’re not gonna know for a while…?

. Looks like Zantai endorsement of sentinel is working a bit for now:eek:

Whirlwind Dervish! I can’t wait any longer!

Sentinel will probably be my first choice. There are a number of interesting possibilities presented, and the acid/poison plague knight theme appeals to me. I really hope that retaliation builds become fun now that some active skills can make use of retaliation damage. Aegis of Menhir, Blood of Dreeg, Fevered Rage and the Mythical Perdition Set sounds like a good time.

It’s not surprising to see Templar lagging behind, as there doesn’t appear to be much synergy there. That doesn’t bother me - I wouldn’t expect every mastery combination to be equally synergistic.

It’s going to be a long wait until Q1 2019!
