Blizzard Sector » Diablo II » Character Development » Paladin » Hammerdin Vs Zealot

Paladin The Paladin is the character that is perhaps more suitable to the multi-player game. But make no mistake; he is still capable of taking on the greatest of battles. Many of his aura powers can affect more than one player so he should always be part of a group.

hammerdin

he could just spam hammers and the zealot wouldent be able to get close unless he had enigma, and teleing into the hammers is very risky

all depends on luck. and skill. A good zealot with enigma can teleport just under the hammeradin just a bit to the right, and tank the hell outta the hammerdin. Hammer is a very random skill and requires extreme expertist to be made effective in duels.

... and HOLY CRAP you ppl reply fast LOL

in PvP.. it all depends, any good Zealot vs a regular hammerdin can whipe the hammerdin out, but it all depends if the zealot can get in quick enough before the hammerdin has those hammers going, my pally CAN kill hammerdins, but 2-3 hits from those blessed hammers and im toast

yes hammerdins own hell quite easyly if u have the rite gear... all depends... hammerdins r mostly made for pvm becaz of most players say they r too rigged in pvp... they own ppl too fast doing over 14 k with the rite gear... in pvm it needs to be well lved and well equiped or else he is gonna get owned in pvm real fast...

edit: o ya forgot to mention that i think u r suppose to use a holy freeze guy i think im not quite sure but i think holy freeze would b the best choice...

hammerdins own all but their kinda boring and lame just spamming hammers everywhere, wow exciting. zealots are fun but it all depends on if a zealot goes out, charges a hammerdin and can block lock him

Duelingwise, I'm confident zealer would win. Charge, Charge, Charge, Bang, Dead. The Hammerdin wouldn't be able to recover fast enough. And I'm talking the best of the best Paladins with perfect gear so definately Zealer.

Hammerdins would rape all of hell PvM considering his resists were high and he used some moderate +'s to skill. SS, Que-Hegan, Seraph(or maras if you can afford..), shako, verd's, raven's, wizzy..

A hammerdin can solo hell with that gear, trust me, cuz' mine does it just fine.

^Ladder, of course.
