PSA: S29 Fist Sader Better Than Before

If you loved the seasonal Fist of heavens power from not too long ago, but due to lag, couldn’t really enjoy it, it’s back and better than ever in the form of a reworked Vigilante belt. Lag is fixed. Same fun power. All you do is ride around on your horse and everything dies. It’s just like before but no lag.

Thanks to Blizz for bringing this back. Now for Strafe/Impale! j/k

The Devs is simply a genius. FoTH is great,I really like Crusader riding war horse and summoning a bolt of lightning from the heavens to strike a target enemy on the battlefield,it’s so cool and there is also the Blessed Shield. The only regret is that the stack of Akkhan’s Leniency only lasts for 6 seconds, and maintaining 100 stack is too energy consuming because the duration is too short. I hope the next patch can increase from 6 seconds to 8 seconds.

Well, any very low level GR, sure.
Try 130++ this season and come back with your experience xD

well, it’s not meant to be a 150 build this season, lol. You can farm heavens fury pieces and switch for pushes. :slight_smile:

I actually don’t think it’s better, in fact, i think its markedly worse

The lag not being there is nice, but the fact the fists only come down while mounted on the horse sucks imo

I liked it more when they came down all the time because right now when you drop horse for any reason, it feels incredibly punishing, it also forces you to do less than the old S27 build, like in s27 i enjoyed using the horse then weaving in manual cast fists so i felt like i had something more to do, but now i can’t do that, and it’s not as fun imo

I miss the nice, slo-mo falling star graphic but the damage is better

It’s a lot of fun especially for speed content. However for pushing content it’s quite clunky to play (the moment stuff doesn’t die instantly your cooldowns aren’t ready when you need them)

Imo the power should stay active for 5s after you used steed charge, just like the Norvalds power. This way you can also have a fun and engaging pushing build. (yes this would buff the build by another 5 tiers which certainly would make it S Tier as well)

Also one of the belt powers should be moved to bracers, so that we can choose between Guardians and Cpt.Crimsons

I do prefer the push build on foot, Wish they’d decouple the movement speed damage buff from the belt and stick it on Bracer of Fury/Drakon’s or something.

That’s why the power should be active 5s after steed charge.
Then you can take actions after a short steed charge and play manually, with the support of additional autocasts

I think they intentionally did belt to keep it moderate power level. The aughild version works great with speeds too. Or no set.

Keeping an eye open for holyshotgun items but not seeing much drop.

There’s no such thing as enjoyable pushing.
Pushing is punishing. If you are the sort that likes to spam buttons without much due care or lack of knowledge about its effects and synergy, your damage is peanuts and thus you cant maintain Pony uptime.

Once Again, this is S tier build.
If you cant do 145 with 5k or 150 with 8k, basically you are terrible with this build and with many other S tier builds thats not Super S tier like Talrasha
Talrasha is a braindead close one eye 150 clear with peanut gons.

If they were to put it on bracer, This will become Super S Tier.
Imagine gaining so much more CDR and CDR stacking becomes damage and you still enjoy 20% damage reductions from RCR.

1 word, broken AF.
In fact within the PTR forums, i personally called for a nerf.
Not all builds need to be 150 easily capable.

If you define the tiers into S tier and Super S Tier good for you
The rest of us doesn’t do that.

The FotH Crusader, while being a strong build is clearly a tier below Tal Rasha and Trag’Oul and no amount of your insults can change that fact

If the power stays active for 5s after steed charge and gets moved to bracer it will be S Tier tho

Again, you fail to understand whats S-Tier.

S-Tier means with average paragons you can attain 150 clears if you fish really hard.

A-Tier means you can never hit 150.

That might be your definition.
If we look at S29 this wouldn’t be S Tier even with that definition. While Tals would be

No matter how you put it, those are not in the same tier

For speed content its S+++++ tier

Dude. S29 is para capped.
Even Crazy chicken, an S-Tier, isnt S-Tier.
Why? Because it dies.
Can you use some common sense between damage and toughness?
This is my last reply to you. You are really very very bad in this game.

You are very bad in leading a healthy discussion, whenever someone doesn’t agree with your nonsense you’re thowing insults.

My point is fact based you either accept it or fail to apply some simple logic.

FotH and Tal Rasha are not the same tier- that’s a fact, like it or not

This isn’t the D4 forums. We are a lot more laid back. If we are going back and forth its just to share info / experiences. No one is saying they are better than anyone else. That’s what leaderboards are for. :slight_smile:

Does someone know the exact ias breakpoints for FotH? The belt scales with 60 / attack speed? How to a calculate the damage increase?

And that’s putting it mildly…He’s managed to throw insults at people without even interacting with them first, whose crime was just daring to post.
