NEW WORLD PALADIN BUILD | Tank AND Heal at The Same Time!

[@pltnmcowboy]

You gotta update this. My planned build for Aeternum.

[@rodplays3726]

How was it?

[@JPearson88]

I've tried to follow this build but the armour set is not longer in the game is there any armour you could recommend. Appreciate a reply thank you

[@gapuru8102]

​@@JPearson88 Im thinking of making a build similar to this. Maybe some sort of varition of SnS LS light build

[@JPearson88]

@gapuru8102 I've gone back to a VG/ flail build kinda got tired of waiting lol 😆 I'm in between builds really not settled on the second weapon yet

[@jasondardeen7076]

Im going to make a build like this... but im also making a "cleric build" so far it runs great in mutations 1..but its a healer off tank build. In case the tank is shitty

[@MrMojitoTV]

Hello ! I have been playing paladin (solo Tank+Heal) this whole week in M3 Dynasty and managed to get a run in 16:43 (top 2 on my server) even though it was our first week trying it out, and with 1 pug everytime. Great video and gl trying it Here are my thoughts/advices on my build compared to yours, on what I found out while experiencing it : - I go round shield and Nimble Coat artifact just because I never ever block, I just dodge, but your builds seems correct too, as you get the 5% CDR from kite shield, I like nimble coat to have my CDs on heal early enough - I think Ankh is a mistake here, you need your outgoing heal to be maximum for your team to stay alive (need blessed on LS too, more than RM). Been playing with Health+Protection on amulet and Blooddrinker ring to have a ton of lifesteal and stay alive easily - I have 5 Health + 5 Enchanted Ward which feels needed - Mending Vortex is a need as you have, but you are missing out the Bludgeon perk, which is massive and completely OP for the build. Makes you able to basically never lose aggro, get permanent fortify and boost your allies, as well as getting grit all the time. It's super big. Try it - I play beacon rather than Splash of Light, cause its animation is too long, and you need super fast heals - I play eruption on flail rather than the barrage, which I feel is a cool spell but can be a problem sometimes, I just prefer having a bit more heal/weaken/boosts with eruption, and I dont need a second taunt spell as I have my Bludgeon all the time (playing as 150str / 300foc / 150con but you can tweek this as you feel) Have fun with this build, 100% the most fun I had as a tank in a while, and probably the future if it doesn't get nerfed.

[@TxRado]

Hey mate, really interested in your build. Could you post some videos or a link to your build. I really want to adopt it! Sounds really fun.

[@TxRado]

Also, are you doing med or heavy?

[@PaweWojewodzic]

+1 for sharing more info :) skill tree etc.

[@Knutchris9]

where would u put the bludgeon perk on?

[@MrMojitoTV]

Did put it on the shield for cheaper craft @@Knutchris9

[@Camolicious223]

Having the 4 dps means you can melt mobs way faster so even if your healing or tanking is sub optimal, they kill mobs so fast it doesn't even matter

[@JeroS.L.]

An interesting way I've been testing this is with greatsword, his defensive stance blocks while you do heavy attacks. You save the problem of the shield, in medium category with the void armor you reach 2k armor. Using Trenchant recovery on the greatsword helps with survival. Using heals that don't require targeting helps keep the group alive more easily. PD: I also use the lost timer so I don't have to use carnelian on the greatsword and can make it scale with focus. 300 focus and constitution.

[@scurrdi6582]

So in Elder Scrolls Online I would run a Paladin build for 4-man dungeon content and it was the same thing here. Things could get scary but the extra dps really helped the overall burn. Hit speed runs with groups with that build so excited to see it in New World.

[@elevenfingers2174]

we need a new update build on paladin tank...any suggestion if i decided to go with sword n shield as main n using flail as my utilities n self healing?

[@s4ndman208]

You know I’m going to get my Son into playing New World and I feel like I might run this so that I can keep him alive and let him go full dps. Thanks for the build video.

[@billgibbs7793]

Nice video - as always. Just a couple suggestions on the flail side. Because you're the tank and healer, you should drop the barrage line entirely, and human shield. Put one point into trip, so you can knock down groups. So, you will just have 8 points in bastion: Vital Suppressant, Trip, Reductive Superiority, Warding bludgeon line, Mitigated Protection and Reinforced Vitality. On the cleric side - pick everything but smite and arcane eruption lines. The better together will give you aggro from heals passively. Also, if you can find a flail with hated, and crowded bludgeon, and use a energized carnelian gems on it - to hex everything you hit. Blocking right after the bludgeon strike also debuffs the mobs. Your way works great too, not saying it doesn't, but its hard to hold aggro with a flail without the hate perks on everything.

[@archonoid2]

I really like this game. Allowing players to have this much choices is incredible.

[@LibertyOrDeath87]

I’ve been dying for a build like this! Gonna totally try it thank you!

[@RickJohnson]

I like splash if you have purifying breeze on the LS since PB procs off of clensing a debuff, which splash can do. Splash also helps w/ ranged players not within LoS.

[@Salubrious388]

I’ve been playing Paladin for a few months now, it’s a fun build and I’ve helped out many people that’s got themselves into trouble in the open world. :) I’d like to see a FS+SnS build for tanking. Incinerate is a taunt and heal and with Flame thrower for applying burning ticks to give fortify is good, with maybe burnout so you can get out of tricky spots, reposition or maybe so you can get through mobs so you can range aggro an archer that’s the other side of the mobs you’re currently attacking. Fun fun fun! I really want the Inferno artefact that scales with strength for this. :) I do hope they bring out more interesting weapon combos for the stats.

[@brokkrgames2778]

there is an older build that was sns/fs tanking pre-FS taunt. Basically relyingon DPS for aggro on top of taunts - MEGA fun.

[@alistergenndi]

I play paladin with featherweight, heavy everything with light boot and kite shield. Pretty fun to play in arena.

[@justin7143]

Man named Pyro but no fire staff.. nope can’t take this man serious now.

[@jonb6564]

When is the pvp build guide?

[@rikmang]

I like the way you think. My company and I try crazy builds and no so good scenarios to get more out of the game. For example we've ran gorg with green gear a few times..yet to complete it with green but getting closer. The last time we had to many range players but think we can do it. We had an avg GS of 645 which normally is over kill for gorg but it was fun. We are going to try sandworm with blue gear next..this pally build is intriguing I am going to mess with this set up myself.

[@eliteguardia]

Love videos like this. Keep up the good work!

[@Udon51]

Is this paladin build going to be updated for aeternum soon or not?

[@loahgaming2267]

Going for heals + dps with the flail link to share damage taken with your tank should work too right. That’s what I’m going for, a dps build that has good dps output that can debuff mobs and take some damage away from the tank/ other dps’s

[@agent.charlie.wax_idn1214]

Nice video 👍🏽 have you a updated version ore is this actually working in this session?!

[@JPearson88]

Baggins is there a update build to this. Ive srarted playing paladin and love it. Just wandering if this is still viable thanks for the great work 👍

[@rayraysg1]

This looks exactly something I was looking to try!! Thanks!!

[@charliebee7675]

Wow...that looks really awesome and it worked. Nice😀🤗

[@JPearson88]

Please please can we get a update to this. I love playing the paladin build

[@ThESiXtHLeGioN]

Nice flick! Love trying new builds in new world.. 🤘🤘

[@DMM_Fan]

M3 is the real deal when u get hit for 4-6k in one hit, then you mostly rely on blocking and managing stamina by utilising every perk to the maximum

[@igBartics]

i've played paladin in m1 to m3. from 1 to 2 it feels like a breeze, easy enough and you can play whatever, m3 is for sure the real deal, it's not easy and you get hit a LOT because you are on medium armor

[@robertsmithington8892]

With power stone and enchanted Ward on all pieces, maybe even the attuned leather pants for extra stats, this build could be more viable than ever. Medium leather with enchanted Ward is very tanky. Add fortify on potion use, you can get another cool down that increases mitigation. I have farmed several full sets with enchanted Ward, so I might test this out. One of the biggest issues with this build, is that it misses out on a lot of healing as a result of trying to get tanking abilities. Does anyone know if human shield mitigates damage with enchanted ward? This could be a problem

[@rowan1043]

Instead of using Michael do you think the Tempered Disruption shield would also be viable?

[@HolyNickTheHobbit]

Not gonna lie, i started a week ago, wanted to do a paladin build, realized healing scaled with focus and I couldn't do that with a sword and shield. Now I see the flail and am like "😮😮 it's possible!"

[@LordCrowGaming]

Tank + Healer = Tequila! Call it a Tequila build!

[@JoshRice]

Pre Ankh nerf, heavy healing might have worked with only the four dps running it. Would've been about on par with an avg light healer and no Ankhs.

[@gunnsygaming4940]

What’s the chest Transmog??

[@jeffreypolicarpio6515]

did you try m3?

[@sidineisilva14]

Does this build work with heavy full PVE solo player?

[@bigtomDW]

i use to heal as using heavy armour, SNS and life staff. managed to get to mutation 4 before i stopped playing

[@RickJohnson]

I run a similar build minus the tank perks, but w/ Leather Attuned pants, 50 STR, 200 CON, and 397 FOC. I do get some aggro, but it's survivable.

[@amirsaan]

Great video! Just wondering how come you didn’t go full or in the cleric tree? Instead also I understand that this is a makeshift class and so not everything is perfect but with odo and a shield that has heal per block could be broken with heal on top of that and some stam boosters for shielding idk I’m just venting some ideas out for a finished build if someone has a better idea feel free to comment I’m super interested in this!

[@preemptivefaceplant5277]

does the kite artiact shield he was using have shield heal per block?

[@johndiaz1963]

magnify want carefully thought out. it’s okay on one or two pieces but more ruins the stat distribution

[@vitapumpkin4732]

The gap between m2 and m3 is pretty big. I'd love to see that in m3 xd

[@masterzenonias]

This Tankealer is Awesome! well Looking for Tankerps !!

[@TimBr0w]

Hi , I play paladin too , with flail and void gauntlet, and I choose the slot DPS for expeditions. It works good but not tried it on M3.

[@ArtificesLab]

Having 2 of these and 3 dps would be interesting. Especially if they both have comms and callout when to switch who has aggro

[@igBartics]

in that case is better to have a pure tank and a pure healer, you are loosing the point on having a player that fills both roles.

[@ArtificesLab]

@@igBartics depending on how the cooldown management works. Should have 2x the healing abilities in play. Potentially better tank abilites up more often too

[@preemptivefaceplant5277]

@@ArtificesLab but the damage has now gone back down tremendously. which defeats the purpose of one.

[@ellis2888]

I already have that Simon Grey gear 5 pieces while running healer do i have to get that gear again to have it in the max gear score?

[@DMM_Fan]

Yeah, but the drop rate isnt that bad and you can choose any perk you want for the last one. But prepare Health perk costs 170k per mod or choose other. This gear reset isnt that bad as it looks at first, now legendaries drop easier and 680+ gs isnt rare.

[@Shamus3]

I have a tower shield that weighs the same as a kite shield.

[@beezwax1]

6:38 You can only wear 1 armor Artifact I think

[@patrickdanford5878]

Hey, is there anyway that you could send me a message on like a beginning build for life staff and flow? I’m only level 20 working on 21 so I don’t have many items in it so can you help me out thank you.

[@billdylan1600]

pug m1 could work, farmed depths artifact yesterday took me hrs just to get ppl together. Prime time ppl seem to rather do chest runs or (understandable) war and invasions.

[@The_Big_Ear]

Have you tried this in pvp?

[@chriskop7675]

fetherweight?

[@RandomjificationOfficial]

Do you have to have the armor in your inventory to do equipment sets, or does it pull from the storage

[@sinjak6616]

Equipment sets is a storage of its own. Once you build and save a set it saves in the sets tab itself. So you carry all sets with you without it applying to your carried weight essentially.

[@swizzayeee7981]

Is greatsword and spear not good anymore?

[@preemptivefaceplant5277]

they are, why would you think they arnt?

[@PoohOnYourShoe]

Completely off topic, kinda, but I want them to add a grimoire book for magic. Have a black magic tree for damage and curses/debuffs and a white magic tree for healing and cleanses/buffs. Have it scale evenly on focus and intel (like the great sword with str/dex)

[@preemptivefaceplant5277]

so almost like the void gauntlet?

[@richardkim3652]

Is there a way you can save your skill points? It's annoying to keep changing it every time you play a different build

[@purgatorysrath4455]

Yes, you make a second character :) I made 3 so I didn't have to deal with that and spending 200 gold every time I wanted to try out a build or just the situations needed for grouping. 🤫

[@rstarrkk]

i love your distaste of magnify. i feel it bro

[@jacobnunya]

i feel like having the +100% mana mod might help with heals, as once you got going you would almost always be below 50% mana for 20% more heals

[@Immortal_BP]

i agree because it looks like michael artifact is not that impactful

[@yaeger_survival]

Can't wait for the text guide to that build 🥰 Do you know when it will be ready? Looks really nice 😊 have my first character on 65 and will definitely give this a try 🎉

[@carlojohnplatero2199]

looks viable for m1&m2, I highly doubt m3.. Mana Drain + Silence gonna make this real tough

[@harms5527]

really appreciate the vid.. btw did you craft most of your gear? Obvs besides the artifacts

[@IL_Bgentyl]

IF new world is fine with palidin they could add a palidin dps check. Where the palidin heals for a % of the dmg his team does in his area as well. Big if though.

How would you feel about using the Heavy armor artifact with the 20% increase to damage reduction?

Why nature resistance gems?? Is not better to use opals for resistance to all magic? I'm a casual player, so don't pay much attention if I said something dumb... hahah

[@preemptivefaceplant5277]

if enemies are doing nature damage to you. and the nature gems you have block 5% each but the block to all magic is 3% per gem. why would you do the block to all magic? mutations change damage to a specific element. so you get more damage reduction from blocking that specific damage.

​@@preemptivefaceplant5277 but that forces you to change your gems every time you do a different dungeon ... maybe if you're a hardcore player is ok, but for casual people that a ton of money ...

[@preemptivefaceplant5277]

@ it's been this way since the beginning. Damage hits harder when you go to higher difficulty. M1 you should be ok with all element gems but m2 and m3 it's better to get element specific. Yes it's more specific but thats what you got to do.

@@preemptivefaceplant5277 I've done a lot of M2 with opals without any problem... I guess M3 yes, because it's intended for hardcore gamers and it's very hard... but for most of the people, specially casual people as me, min maxing is not mandatory

[@jessebuck8432]

lol mans said dinners tea XD

[@exSkyelighter]

Original comment below. Edited 12/30/2024: You shouldn't feel bad if you can't play this build. It's crazy. I am 99% PvE player and had spent 1,000's of hours in NW's endgame content. I was losing love for the game. I needed an endless challenge. A single mistake could cause a wipe depending on when the mistake occurred immediately ending a run, because you're running 4 pure DPS. I felt like it was a way to constantly push myself to be better and to greatly-punish myself when I screwed up. Pushing myself to maintain my pinnacle an entire run felt exhilarating. It wasn't a build made for anyone, it was just a build I enjoyed, and because I don't consider my ability superior to anyone else, that it's just a matter of practice, that anyone could get there. I enjoy playing like that, the question is do you? for pvp: I play this in OPR and Arena sometimes and it works really well for me; I swap shield rush for leap because it's a great escape from a tough situation. I love healing, and I wanted something different from the rapier. If you see me around in-game, I'll answer any questions. Original Comment: Honestly, as the only Light Paladin that has ever been able to effectively MT/MH M10(M3 now) without struggling, I still to this day don't understand why everyone else struggles with it. I refined my Paladin for NW: Aeternum and with the game being rebalanced, it plays so smoothly even in PUG runs. I wish more people would give the build a chance. It's extremely high skill-ceiling, and feels extremely-rewarding to play successfully.

[@Wopdi]

tank and healer, what a game XD

[@MillerTheOriginal]

This is a fun build but its never going to 'be the future' like you said. The problem is, if you go down, you whole team is screwed. And after watching the footage, that looks very likely 😂

[@mvpmikey]

Paladin is more of a "Heal-less Tank", so team healing is not possible. You need multi-hit spells after popping Flail Spells for massive lifesteal. This makes "Spin to Win" Great Axe a better 2nd weapon. *[Flail + Lifestaff] only works as [DPS + Healer] build.* *Based on Theory Crafting.* There's only 2 Option 1st is DPS Healer, and 2nd Heal-less Tank

[@gustavofernandez9636]

I think this build is perfect for pvp

[@nib6383]

3:11 too bad the devs think magnify has tons of benefits, and only really hurts split stat builds. Can't believe they have no plans to change it.

[@YTStorag3]

Cool content bro! I'm a new player, not even a month into the game. But i'm at max level already, playing life staff in our party but flail and shield solo. We're mostly doing PVE content.

Would need best in slot gear to do it, but I don’t think there’s a reason to do m3 s currently anyways, this for m2 or under is some of the quickest runs out there right bow

maybe heavy for m3, should be possible

heavy has reduced healing so he wouldnt get enough heals

Doesn’t the ankh just nullify the entire concept for this? I’ve been running paladin for a while and I never considered ankh as it just destroys your healing output

[@preemptivefaceplant5277]

the heals are mainly for himself which is incoming heals. outgoing heals are to teammates. if teammates arnt taking damage then it wont matter so it doesnt nullify anything

[@jwars43]

@@preemptivefaceplant5277 Pretty sure it also applies to heals towards yourself. Outgoing heals still affect how much you receive if you heal yourself with it. Which is why light armor life staff users dont put any stats into incoming healing and still receive the full bonus of all their stats.

[@DMM_Fan]

i think tanking stats are poorly designed currently in different builds. Because if you do not block your perks negate 0% of the damage. While Only tower shield reduces Raw incoming damage by 5%, then only SnS has an ability which reduces another 20% of Raw damage. Opossite of that. Flail doesnt have any perks that reduces Incoming Raw damage, we end up with Fortification buff which isnt exactly effective for tanking, You can run Light Greatsword build as a tank if you know how to correctly do skill sequence, and when to block, and when to change weapns...

Haha, that's a fun build. But yeah I'm 100% it wouldn't work in M3, you would have died in so many places there if it was M3. Like the 3 bosses and the dogs etc, M3 hits so much harder than M10s used to. I think if it was still the old M10s this COULD have worked if played to perfection, but not in the M3s we have now. Nonetheless, looks like a really fun build and you can use this to speedrun M2 for easy dark matter!
