Rolands Crusader suggestions

[xsenigma]

Just wanted to drop some requested fixes for us weird people who go against the meta and prefer to play not so popular builds, would it be possible to make some updates to the crusader combat logic to make it more like barbarian? and by this i mean the barbarian will wait until the exact second that a cooldown wears off to recast to allow optimal zodiac ring use, crusader will just recast his law of valor with 5 seconds remaining taking away precious CDR from akarats champion and iron skin.. if there is already a copy/paste fix out there or some setting i can adjust to fix this please let me know!

Do you have a diablofans link for this particular build? I can work on it, but i need to know what gear to use and what skills to equip

Roland made serval builds, so you need to narrow it down my man ^^

above is a general link to the build, sorry for not providing one I didn't think It was necessary for things such as improving the overall classes ability to recognize how to optimize cooldowns, the only differences that MY particular build has from the one linked is I use hellfire amulet with wrathful, increased duration rune on iron skin, strongarm bracers on character, furnace, leorics crown, zodiac ring cubed, and I use heavenly strength, holy cause, long arm of the law, finery for passives.

the issue I run into is trinity will refresh my law of valor when it has 5 seconds left on buff, and my iron skin when it still has 3-4 seconds left of uptime, this takes away ALOT of ticks from akarats champion, if it were to only cast the second they wear off then I could have 100% uptime on akarats... I play a lot of barbarian and I noticed that the zodiac unity coe wastes build does a magnificent job of only recasting its cooldowns when they wear off so as not to waste zodiac ticks....please let me know if you need anymore information and thanks for the response!

How good is this build, though? Compared to the other, more popular one?

 

[xsenigma]

What do you mean by more popular? Seekers hammer set? Because trinity cant even play that at 50% efficiency and thats being generous.. As for other rolands
Set the only difference is element preference... People use the fire build to cindercoat for rcr, im the opposite i use lightning build and leorics cubed for CDR.... Both are in top 100 and both use the same cooldowns so which one is better is irrelevant to the matter of cooldowns being wasted when they have 5 seconds left on duration, this seems like a character issue and not an individual build issue, ive used several unconventional barbarian builds and not one ever decided to refresh wrath of the berserker or warcry early... Im not asking for build logic tweaks im asking for the same logic monk and barb have... Dont recast
My cooldowns when they still have 5 seconds left lol

And i understand this is due to nobody really caring about crusader atm, but im well aware of the incoming buffs and would like to build a solid crusader before they are buffed

Fixed. Should be in the next official release. Thanks xsenigma for the report, this was actually a bug.
