Crafted shield so you can imbue ure plus shield onto it or magma / Guthlak shield are magma has really good stats and guthlak is a large shield with ok stats but very nice speed
Weapon . Probably best if you could have an open weapon template but if you cant then you are aiming for a very fast weapon as you want to get as many ragnoroks / odins bites / polar rifts off as possible. As a valk you dont do much damage weapon wise its all in the procs now so the more procs the better. If you opt for this then you are looking at 3 weapons.
Traitors dagger ( good stats great proc but some find it a bit lame . You can really win a fight just by using this weapon because it procs the mists)
Sun weapon ( get this from belt of the sun , really fast weapon , good enuf stats ..its an energy weapon also and no one really caps energy so its great for damage. ALso it has a debuff energy proc on the weapon and your styles DD's are energy dmg so you are debuffing for your melee AND you magical dmg .
Gzasis blade (sp?) This is the SI necky quest reward if you go sword. Its a basic weapon with 10% cold and 10% crush . 30 hits and a blade turn proc . Proc doesnt go off too much but the weapon is 2.3 speed and 16.2 dps so its pretty fast - Also because of the stats on it ...technically you can have free weapon template using this weapon because if you take it off you arent dropping that much . If you are duelling and u fighting slash / thrust opponents you can take it off nps rly. I have 30% crush in my temp to allow for taking the weapon off and putting in traitors if i need an advantage.
Otherwise its the standard book of artifacts. Gov and Som are a must . Gov stats are irreplaceable and the som /use2 absorb is a must for any tank class. If you can fit winged helm in then do , the use on that is also fantastic but not a must . You will need cb for stun/mezz immunity and mad scallers for the stats . I dont have mad scallers in my template as Im using crafted sleeves and valk epic legs but it comes down to choice rly
Last but not least you will need battler activated as a 2hand lvld to 10 . Keep it in ure 2h slot at all times and use the /use2 to debuff enemy armour so you can hurt them like a mothertrucker.

Nerf havent tried it . Was told it was a straight forward energy debuff proc and presuming the DD's are energy it should make them hit for more ?
''Doesnt do shit'' means ...? A little more descriptive might help me hereThat means it doesnt work ? Doesnt make much of a difference ? Etc . Also have a 50 valk but I havent used the belt myself , Im not prepared to sacrifice so much utility on sticking that belt in my template for the sake of a weapon so Educate me

very informative thread... the only problem I see here is to actually put a template together will all these things, good stats, good resists, skills and so on... fiddled around with templates for my valky, but failed for example on a good large shield/traitors/CB combo that has all the other nice items as well.
My last try on a template has 6 artis (GoV, Battler 1h, Cyclops Shield, SoM, Eerie Stone, Winged Helm), 8x STR/DEX, 272HP, good resists and very good +sword+shield+parry - I will prolly have a Traitors dagger as "backup/2nd" weapon. Have no idea about a good 2h sword since I plan on using battler 1h...

I looked at the template you had posted on my thread . Reason I didnt opt for that was battler as your weapon for one . Too slow , and it would be ok if you had another good /use weapon as ure 2h but seen as valks cant activate malice it just seemed a waste. The strength , I can take a dive in strength to maybe 95 but to go to 85 and your weapon skill just seemed to much to lose for me . I liked the AF but again it was 40 when you could have gotten 50 , also I liked the 10 + parry 11 + shield which was nice and capped quick but you capped every one of your resists and a lot of the time they might not be needed at all , especially with CL resists and play style added to that so again it just seemed like you could have opted for something else. Your hits were over capped by a good bit yet you had 13 strength over cap which means you could have had 88 strength but only 83 in sc/temp .
I ended up tweaking the template I posted with 50 AF 350 hits high dex strength etc . I dropped my cold resist on the sc and I dropped my energy resist on the sc and replaced with quickness which brought my quick up to 80/75 .
Just thought I would reply here seen as I didnt get around to posting it on that thread, and didnt wanna bump old news
This of course is not a flame , I dont know enough about valkeryies , but just from playing my hero and nightshade and my own playstyle , thought I would give you a response as to why I didnt opt for it .

Oops - no offense meant and none taken... I wasn't trying to comment on other templates you made etc.... I just fiddle on mine and found the thread here nice but thought I share my opinion on getting everything into the temp is quite hard for me...
This ok between the two of us?
P.S. Updated my thread with numbers on the current template approach, can look here: https://forums.freddyshouse.com/showthread.php?p=2991948#post2991948
P.P.S. If some1 can make a similar template that is "doable" for some1 like me (the Valky lvl45 is my highest char, doh. Read: cheap enough and easy enough) including some CC feedback AND Traitors Dagger 1h / Battler 2H combo I would be very interested.
