so... thats my dude but i still loose badly in some duels (mainly against other vindicators-especialy 1 evil paly that give me no chance)
so pls guys tell me what can i do for a better performance in the future
or should i make another pally?

vitality is great, is your item socketed with proper lightning resist gear?

try stacking atleast 250% lightning resist

whats your hp 1500? if you get 10x combat with nice 30+life you can get over 2k hp without too many problems

20 hp/lightning resist are very helpful when dueling other paladins

silence bezerker axe might work better if you can get 6fps smite with it

(silence military pick works good to)

might want to try getting an amulet similar to havok clasp

some rare/craft with stat/life/resist/pal skill is what you are looking for

thundergods vigor works better, maybe ber shako?

hmm i have 1780 hp
no i didnt put anything in my gear yet
tg?
anyway my pdr is low
i was thinking to ber my hcrest yes
just didnt found 1 yet
about that stacked light rez
shouls i wear a phase blade with 6 light rez jewels on switch?
should i put a lo in hoz?
what about ny shaft? what should i put in ?

well for switch you might want
some aura stacking thing with +convic, and possibly 4sckt (paladin shield) 45 all resist with orts, 165% lr possible

shaft? depending on what classes you mainly duel ber ( better pdr), lo (better for pure pal v pal), or even jah (5% max life)

ta apoq
