Yeah, if nothing else it's a pretty neat solution to the problem of "this unique has a great ability on it but I need these stats/resists to not have gaping holes in my gear"

Oh, that seems insanely good then. It's weird that the Falconer guides on Maxroll suggest Dex as your second primary stat in most slots instead of skill + minion damage.

I think it's because of the passives you can take that scale off of Dex, like Agile Hunt (additional falcon throwing damage per 4 Dex)

Have you tried rive healing hands paladin

Started this build last night on a whim after seeing this post and drat, at level 20 this already feels good. Lunge in and everything's dead in 1-2 Rive hits with an HH proc. Don't even have everything online yet and some random uniques slotted in instead of all the correct gear affixes and it still works well.

Did you keep playing this

It’s maybe the best paladin class fantasy build I’ve seen in arpgs. Except for the stupid time skill

Oh yeah - so much so I've shelved my other characters for the time being while I finish out normal monos and farm up an Exsanguinous as well.

There is just so much to like about this build it's silly. It's so tanky I've just stopped doing boss mechanics - even for Lagon I just void charged over to the other tentacle when the sweeping beam came out, but that's it. Finally got a decent health->ward glove to drop so in my mediocre gear at 68 I'm at 1.6k health and 2.5ish ward every fight, while still dealing pretty good damage. I can't wait to see how busted it feels once I'm in proper exotics with a few good legendaries.

The one I ended up on is slightly different but ends up similarly:

https://www.lastepochtools.com/build-guides/melee-crit-healing-hands-paladin

You end up with Void Cleave and Abyssal Echoes instead of Sigils + reversal. Void Cleave becomes a traversal skill and both it and Rive proc a ton of stuff, and it just feels really good.

Update: mono Lagon completely disrespected, with ward the sweeping beam only took me to around half health, refilled in an instant. Learn nothing, break everything.

I just want more content. This game already feels so much better than PoE does (tried the new season, couldn't get back into it), but the endgame just needs some TLC. Give me more reasons to stand still and RotS-style wave my lightsaber two handed sword around!
