Hey, was just messing around with some gear and I found my old dream sacred targe and tiara, wondering what I should put it to use for.
I had initially thought of holy shock smiter, getting shock as high as possible and smiting the crap out of them since sacred targe isn't too shaby of a smiter shield.. But I'd really like opinions, I'm torn between (experimental) holy shock hammerdin, shock zealot, and shock charger (which I doubt I'll make, but is still an option). I don't plan on stacking, except for screwing around in pvm, or if people are nking me/friends, so I don't really wanna build solely on stacking. Thanks to anyone who responds with helpful suggestions.
A mini gear/skills list would be nice as well! :grin:
And I'm going for fun here, keep that in mind, although not getting my arse kicked across a duel game would also be nice :)

Sounds good, I'll look into that, so charge is the best skill for a dreamer build?

Just started a new Zealot/Dream build myself.
End Point distribution will look like this:
20HolyShield
20Lightning Resist
20Conviction
20Salvation
20Zeal
Build also incorperates a Voice of Reason right now. Hopefully will upgrade to Rift soon.
Very fun build thus far. With the Dream Helm and Shield youre kicking out about 6500damage plus the crazy procs from VoR/Rift for insane Cold elemental damage with the Lightning from Dream.
Why not go for an Auradin? It's awesome at PvM and PvP. It's darn fun to play with and ultra-powerful. Just get yourself a Dragon armor and Hand of Justice and you'll be ripping stuff to shreds.
How much can u spend on this char?

Another +1 for the vor/dreamer
skill selection
20 holyshield
20 res light
20 conviction
20 fanat
enough in zeal to get 5 hits.
1 in wonders
Dream helm , Shield
Vor pb switch "A" run with conviction
duress armor
dracs
tgods or a nice rare or blood belt
goblin toe boots
highlords or Cateye
swap "B"
Up'd hoz
Grief pb run with fanat and use smite
this setup works the best on high life targets where the dream/vor clears out packs well
you now have a char that can run everywhere problem free. The only slow spots is around IM . For this keep gimmershed axes in stash and throw these.
Merc Vor Act 5 merc , Rift act2 defiance or harmony/ICE using Rogue act1
That's how I built around dream and it rocks!
I recommend you to use rift instead.
You'll have tons of elemental damage and would be almost immune to IM.
Make rift in a war scepter, although I use a rift caddy and have almosto no problems whit IM, except when some silly necro cast amp on monsters, haha.
I think there is a guide to make a riftadin in the pally forum.
This char is very powerful and very enjoyable to play with.
The gear I use is,
Dream bone visage
Dream sacred targe
Coh
Dracul's
Highlord's
Rift Caddy (I was lucky and it is perfect)
Goreriders (You can swap this with wartravs if u want some mf)
1 BK ring
1 wisp projector (It is cool to see lightnings spammed when using it, plus it adds some light absorption and mf)
Act 1 Merc equipped with
Almost perfect shadow bow faith
Eth fort
Vamp gaze (for life leeching)
She is also inmune to IM and you'll be surprise how long she stands while other mercs keep dying in chaos runs), she is a fast killer also
Enjoy
PS: This guy is bassically a zealer (1 point in zeal), max conviction, salvation, resist lightning (to increase aura damage, and rsist also, ;)), holy shield and then you can do whatever you like with the remaining points. I put a point in cleansing to get rid of curses faster.
