Diablo Immortal: The Best Single Target Crusader

Sacred Fire Primary Skill Crusader Guide

This Crusader uses the Sacred Fire primary skill as its primary attack along with Judgment, Condemn, Holy Banner, and Conjuration of Light or optionally Draw and Quarter. With the recommended legendary items Judgment rains fire down around you, Condemn increases your primary skill damage and instantly consumes damage over time effects, Holy Banner increases the damage of your primary skill, and Conjuration of Light gives damage immunity for a short duration which can improve your damage. Draw and Quarter can optionally replace Conjuration of Light for higher damage in raids when combined with Lightstriders legendary pants which causes Draw and Quarter to summon two horses that charge enemies. The primary source of damage for this build comes from its primary attack Sacred Fire and its damage over time effects which will be instantly consumed by Condemn with the Torrential Refrain off hand equipped. This allows you to repeatedly refresh the duration of damage over time after the entire duration of the damage over time is consumed instantly.

Paragons & Legendary Skills: Sacred Fire Primary Skill Crusader Build

1. Slayer is the highest damage paragon because it increases the damage of your primary skills and continual damage.

2. Gladiator is the best PvP paragon tree for this build because it gives a cheat death and helps with loss of control.

3. Vanquisher is the best paragon tree for increased magic find and has increased damage and attack speed on kills.

4. Harbinger can be used in Erebban for a shield, for movement speed, and for moving unhindered through enemies.

5. Survivor is recommended for Vanguard so that deaths take you to one life instead of killing you.

6. The best paragon legendary skill for this build is Death's Release which causes explosions with your continual damage.

7. Below you can find a picture for the best paragon for damage and the second image is the best paragon for PvP.

Recommended Sets

1. Feasting Baron's Pack Set (2 Set) - Important to increase the duration of harmful effects by 30%.

2. Untouchable Mountebank (4 Set) - Great for PvP for a large life shield to improve your defenses.

3. Banquet of Eyes (2 Set) - Increases your damage by 15% when there is a continual damage effect on the enemy.

Best Curses

1. Lashed - Using your primary attack gives a chance to generate three crackling whips that damage enemies.

2. Atrophied - Continual damage causes a dark field to appear under enemies that deals damage over time.

Best 5 Star Legendary Gems

1. Roiling Consequence - Increases your critical hit chance and causes critical hits to burn enemies.

2. Golden Firmament - Causes a ranged wind damage attack and increases your evasion.

3. Frozen Heart (should be switched to for PvP) - Gives a life shield for a medium duration and chills enemies.

4. Blood-Soaked Jade - BSJ is the lowest priority 5 star gem at low levels and becomes one of the best at high levels.

Best 2 Star Legendary Gems

1. Mother's Lament - Increases your critical hit chance and causes enemies to bleed.

2. Power & Command - Alternates between increased primary damage and increased skill damage.

3. Igneous Scorn - Can be combined with Roiling Consequence and Mother's Lament to deal damage on critical hits.

4. Fervent Fang (for PvM only) - Gives enemies a stacking damage taken increase when they are hit by an attack.

Best 1 Star Legendary Gems

1. Misery Elixir - Important for this build to increase damage over time durations.

2. Entropic Well - An excellent 1 star gem for damage that can be replaced at higher gear levels with a 5 star gem.

Regular Gems

Prioritize Tourmalines for added damage in red sockets and Citrines for Potency which increases harmful effects duration in yellow sockets. You should also use your highest refinement Aquamarines and Sapphires which give increased armor and armor penetration in blue sockets. You can optionally combine all of your Rubies and/or Topazes into a single higher refinement Ruby and/or Topaz and use one of each in your equipment early on for a higher level of refinement.

Gem Notes

The Pain Clasp legendary gem shouldn't be used on this build because it requires damage over time on the target and your damage over time will be triggered instantly with the Torrential Refrain offhand. This means you also won't need the Viper's Bite and Seeping Bile legendary gems to trigger the damage increase on the Pain Clasp legendary gem. Roiling Consequence and Mother's Lament both give increased critical hit chance and pair well with Igneous Scorn which deals damage on critical hits. You should eventually replace Igneous Scorn with Blood-Soaked Jade which is a weak 5 star gem at low levels but becomes one of the best 5 star legendary gems once it's at a high level. The Echoing Shade legendary gem which summons two clones that use your primary attack has the major downside of clones dying off too quickly in fights but Echoing Shade is still sometimes strong for raids. Golden Firmament is a new strong 5 star gem that has wind damage, evasion rating, and it triggers Firestorm for more damage when mixed with burning damage. Fervent Fang is a nice legendary gem for PvM but it should be replaced with Frozen Heart for PvP for a life shield and to chill your enemies.
