Bulwark and aggro?

wildfirede

So after the bubble fix paladins have to actually care being the mobs target.

How do you handle it?

will post my setup when at home but not 100% happy with it.(BoV not holding mobs nearly enought like in the tooltip, at will's taunt not noticable and so on)

So, at home now - Clarification

Binding Oath - "Nearby targets are forced to attack you for 2sec" i have it up at 8sec - but mobs clearly don't attack only me in those 8 seconds.

Oath Strike - "Forces the target to attack you for 3sec" --- have seen targets turn on something right after i hit them with that.

So i am basically running Power circle/Templar's Wrath/Bane with shielding/radiant as at-wills and courage/wisdom as auras all at 4points.

Got 2 companions - a augment stacked with recovery/hp and a Warlock with arm.pen/power with the lock aggro is fine, but with the augment i got the occasional turn of the boss to say hello to some GWF.

For aggro; aura of radiance good for controlling mobs. I tried on edemo. It works good.

Thanks,was thinking about this too but then comes my idea of the paladin into play, i want to be bringing something to my party and appart of wisdom and courage auras there is little a bulwark can offer.
But in the other side i am the tank.. so maybe embrace that and focus solely on agrro and survival.

Sidenote: should i change recovery with arm.pen?

I am focusing on recovery (primary) and power. Arm. pen. gives me Stronghold boon. My idea is to have cooldown (vulnerable) phase of binding oath as short as possible.

I bought stamina gain kits for cloak, belt and rings for fast divine call. Divine call = fast binding oath + more ap gain. Finally next goal, change my tiamat orb to wheel of elements for single target bosses, stamina gain, power and hp. On Orcus, healing is nothing. It hits two or one.

And i have stamina/protection gain boons. I can survive on Orcus easily now. For aggro on multiple target combats, my strategy pushing with relentess avenger, radiant strike for multiple charge and threat and same time still active aura of radiance.

When you hit all mobs, aura of radiance generates for you extra threat. We finished cn with zero death after nerf.

And one more thing, sigil of paladin more important now. Sigil DC not far and away big gun now. Yeah still best but keep sigil of oathbound on your bag. Maybe one day save your life.

Another diffirent angle insignias. Artificer's Persuasion gives on same time recovery, divine call regen, and ap gaining. Vigor insignia give some Stamina/Guard gain. Mastery gives recovery+control bonus.

Good alternatives for lame tanks. I examined them after nerf.

Yea about the ap.boon from guild - i am in a family guild so we have SH on 0 thats why pet with of the master and dark enchants.

I must say radiance surprised me with bo,templar and burning light(on multiple)/bane on single target i am happy (no wisdom for you casters sorry )
