Resource

Judicator works off of divine energy, you start off at 0, and have a maximum of 200. Certain moves build his energy that allow him to use other moves. You want to store energy up to energy dump in order to have great burst damage. This is his greatest strength and weakness. A Judicator with max energy is tough to kill, but one without any energy is limited to less than half of their move set.

Tips and Tricks

The key to playing judicator lies within your ability to generate energy for powerful combo's. Judicator is melee class, but your true strengths lie in controlling fights that may or may not always be in your favor. Skills like Piercing Light, Purification, and Holy Dash are often overlooked and underutilized. If you decide to run the Miracle of God passive while playing judicator, you will want to maintain the buff as often as possible, Which will be decided on how often you decide to use purification. Holy dash is also a very good skill for closing gaps, slowing enemies, repositioning, and flat out utility. Always be wary when using it, because it does cost 20 divine energy per use, and it does have an 8 second cool down per charge. Piercing light is a hit scan penetrating heal/poke skill that is very versatile. It should always be used off of cool down, and if you know your going to be in a situation where you are severely limited on actions. This is the one skill you will want to use above all others.

Example Builds Outdated Current

Full Damage Judicator

• Miracle of God
• Swift Justice
• Avatar of Divinity
• Holy Tempest
• Divine Reckoning
• Avenging Flames/Wrathful Hand
• 10 Points in Critical Effect
• 15 Points in Vitality
• 15 Points in Acceleration
• Amulet of Healing is preferred but not Mandatory

The full damage Judicator build is very exceptional for 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3. As well as PvE environments with other skilled players. Focuses on having a 100% uptime on miracle of god. After reaching 200 diving energy, your avatar of divinity kicks in. Then you use sacred lightning to activate miracle of god before using divine reckoning and holy tempest. Avenging flame should be used situationally to generate energy while reflecting as much damage as possible. Wrathful hand should be used to poke enemies hp bars, and should be used off cool down.

Bruisicator

• Judge-Guardian
• Swift Justice
• Miracle of God
• Avenging Flames
• Enigmatic Protection
• Wrathful Hand
• 15 points in Acceleration
• 15 Points in Intensity
• 10 Points in Vitality
• Amulet of Endurance/Revival

Pretty easy build, this build is centered around having an uptime on damage reduction. You poke from afar with piercing light, and when you are close enough land sacred lightning off of cool down and follow up with wrathful hand. The object of this build isn't for short burst wins, when classes are using dps you should be using primarily avenging flames for the 20% damage reduction as well as energy build. Should they re engage you will have enigmatic protection as well. Healing light when possible and stay in range to use wrathful hand on cool down. In 2v2 should 2 people jump on top of you, use both enigmatic and avenging flames, the damage reduction should keep you alive long enough for an ally to follow up with big dps. Same principle in 3v3.

PvE Judicator

• Enigmatic Protection
• Heaven's Favor
• Divine Reckoning
• Judge-Guardian
• Swift Justice
• Miracle of God
• 15 Points in Vitality
• 10 Points in Intensity
• 15 Points in Acceleration
• Runic Bandage

The PvE Judicator build is only suggested to be used in pve scenarios. The Prime skills as well as the masteries help you maintain as much energy as possible, while having supportive skills for allies. It can be used for PvP but will not have the same impact as the Full damage Judicator without a lot of practice.

Healicator

• Benevolence
• Protect the innocent
• Swift Justice
• Heaven's Favor
• Divine Reckoning
• Holy Tempest
• 15 Points in Vitality
• 10 Points in Intensity
• 15 Points in Acceleration
• Revival Perk

The healicator is a universal healing build for any judicator that wants to be a cleric while controlling a large hulkified body. The passives allow you to maximize healing output without having to rely on whether another passive is active like miracle of god, or avatar of divinity. It also includes heaven's favor and holy tempest which are very impactful skills capable of turning any fight from a losing fight to a winning fight.

Matchups (Easy, Medium, Hard)

Wizard

• Ranged match ups will always be a bit challenging due to how close judicators have to be to have full effectiveness. The mastery time anomaly also makes it very hard to get in range of a wizard, best plan is to always force them to stagger their cool downs as much as possible and then all in. Staggering their cool downs prevents them from doing massive amounts of damage in small combo rotations.

Ranger

• Ranged Matchups will always be tough for judicator, staying in melee range is the best way to beat this class. Do not let them open up distances between you for free. If you see a ranger try to leap away, follow up with lightning. Do your best to fake out the evasion by canceling your cast before it completes. Works well with avoiding bouncing leap as well.

Outlaw

• Semi-hard matchup, outlaws do a lot of upfront burst damage after their initial stun, you will always survive it, but must be able to bait out their roll and juke the knee rush otherwise the class itself will completely overshadow you. Once you have baited those out, drop sacred lightning, use divine reckoning, and then use holy tempest to heal yourself while dealing heavy damage to your opponent.

Cleric

• Offensive capabilities are subpar compared to a judicator, healing is a lot more consistent. Very capable of killing judicator, interrupt healing as much as possible, always pressure. Save CC for large chain interrupt combos.

Witch

• Not as easy of a match up as it once was, it is impossible to kill them in 1 all in, you need to bait out forbidden circle, and then drop the DPS combo on them. Deny them orbs, and constantly heal while chipping as much damage as possible. Always purge after 3 or more debuffs, if you play it right you will be able to kill them on the second dps combo. If you mess up a decent witch will kill you before then.

Warrior

• Skill based match-up warrior is a Damage dealing class that thrives in close combat, judicator is a hybrid healer/offensive support that also plays well in close combat. In terms of offensive dps warrior will always be better, to win against warrior requires a lot of mid range kiting and dodging. Skills like courageous leap are skills that must be avoided at all times, the interrupts a lot of your abilities. Blade weave is also very punishing on judicator's because the only way that a judicator can dispel a slow is with holy tempest. Meaning it will be impossible to kite a warrior who has blade weave stacked on you.
