[Pre Renewal] Help with my Paladin build

[powerstarprince]

Hello guys, i'm planning to make a somewhat balanced paladin in a very low rate server. Since rates are as low as 1x and there's no reset i'm not going for pure matyr reckoning ( 99 vit 99 agi ) or pure devotion ( 99 vit 99 dex ). I like using shield skills offensively and for defensive support too. So, here's a rough plan of what i like to make.. it's a mix of Matyr reckoning and Rapid Smiting with maxed devotion to support parties.

str 60+20

agi 55+21

vit 90+10

dex 62+18

int 13+17

luk 1+3

The above stat build is at 99 level and with priest buffs ( bless and agi ). Is this build worth it for an all round purpose? it can MR, RS and devote party members but i'm worried if it's gonna be hard to level up all alone. I usually like getting into parties.. but when i don't find need to think about grinding alone at a good speed. Also the skills for it are : Common sader skills to get and max out Rapid smiting, Matyr Reckoning and Devotion( No peco ride ). After that i have 1 skill remaining to put into Pressure.

Should i go with lvl 10 Guard and lvl 1 Pressure or max out pressure and take guard back to lvl 6 . Which of the two will be more useful for me..?

Also.. Which crusader build is the best to hit 99 as fast as i can.. thinking about GC build with moderate str but any ideas?

Dex is a bit too low to be something ok for devo :\ For me, anything < 100 total dex for hybrid builds are too slow to be used.
I would probably kill that INT since it won't help you that much, the extra sp that it gives isn't much and you're better with a change of gear[like using +0 variants] for it.

i can't get dex to 100 meaning it shud be 80 base. btw is this hybrid build good enough? i can use MR when required and RS will do decent dmg if i can get a cross shield.
If i choose this build should i go for lvl 5 pressure and lvl 6 guard or lvl 1 pressure and lvl 10 guard?

You actually don't need 80 base dex, it's more about swap gears. If you're on devo, you can just swap gears to get more dex like:

8 bonus dex from job 70.
2 O'gloves with 2 zeroms = 10 dex
Bless = 10 dex
Apple of Archer = 3 dex
+3 dex armor = 3 dex
+5 dex food[easy to get with a champ] = 5 dex
4 drops knife = 4 dex
10+10+3+3+5+4 = 20+15 = 35 easy dex

This means that you can just kill that int and add 3 dex for 65 dex, swap gears when devo is needed and have 100 dex but ofc you don't really need to follow this, it's just something that I like to have since more dex means faster devo because shield chain is already ok with that dex.

ASPD isn't mega bad for Sacrifice[MR] spam, you can still get 180 aspd in that build with just bg tierra spear and hotb+thorn on.

Basically you will have something not perfect in all but can give you some diversity while using it.

Pressure and Auto-Guard are personal preferences but ofc 5 at pressure can give you more elasticity when using it[1 for fast casts, 5 to kill some sp and give some dmg].
