Is there any other set for the Crusader except the Armor of Akkhan set, the invoker set does not count.
Blizzard should have made proper gear for the crusader, I mean only one set? all the other classes have like 3 different class specific sets. there isn't even one green weapon piece for the poor toon? this is the main reason I'm stopped playing the crusader, is the lack of items. I played the crusader for the last two days and its a fun class. Anyone feel the same as I do...?

I did find a decent 1 hander, my crits go as high as 6mil with law of valor - critical active. other wise only 4mil... If I feel windgat I can do T3

Demon Hunters also only have one proper set, nobody bothers with the others

I remember reading somewhere that the invoker set was initially supposed to be for the crusader but they scrapped the idea.

I also might have read that they were thinking of adding another set for the crusader but I could be wrong (they might have already decided against it)

I think most classes only have 1 set thats really worth getting for the end game.

While they dont have a set weapon, there are loads of legendary 1-hander and 2-hander flails, not to mention loads of other 2-handers that no class will ever use except for crusaders. Plus shields and crusader shields which are another item slot I've never cared about before I've played a Crusader. There's lots of gearing challenges. There are a few of very different viable crusader builds that work up until about T4, which also makes things interesting.

That full Akhans set is really crucial for a crusader, hard to progress past T3 without it. After weeks of looking for an Akhans chest kadala finally gave me one. Then within the space of 5 rifts I got another 2 from drops, go figure...

Also, there are rumours that the PTR for 2.1 is very nearby...

I agree, I have a few pieces of Akkhan stashed away and still using Blackthorne's as I don't have enough of Akkhan's yet.

getting above that 4-6 mil crit level is a mission, also I don't think there's balance in build options, I'm enjoying focusing on a lightning build but I think if I were to start again I'd try something else

My experience has been that the Crusader is insanely overpowered.

I levelled a new one and hit 70 this weekend. I used left overs from my demon hunter, so half the legs im wearing have dex on them and/or crappy rolls in general for a crusader.

I was able to be quite effective in T3 after picking up a decent weapon or two. It took my Demon Hunter a LOOOONG time to be able to run T3. Ridiculous

If I have to compare it to my Monks progression, they are indeed really strong. I had a similar experience when I leveled my wizard though, but I didnt follow through on the Wiz cause I didnt really like the class. But, I didnt feel like my Wiz was much weaker than my Crusader out the gates.

Once you have 1 strong toon to get another to T3 is really easy, can do it almost just crafting things. Being able to do higher T-levels (and with what gear) is when the class imbalances come through.

Got my tasker & theo this morning. Along with repurposing some of my wiz gear, t4 is not hard at all now. Except for a mob of vortex fire chains molten. That was just get sucked in and die immediately. Over and over.

Epic, epic runs with AT, copa and Laverz last night. 45 fetishes running around, t3 was just melting, even t4 wasn't much of a challenge despite the highest monster density I've ever seen. I went from plevel 200 to 204 in 3 rifts!

I need my RoRG/Zuni's Pox, so I can have 8 more permanently.

Will be madness.

At the stage now where I can comfortably do T6 - The XP and gold is insane.

Zuni's is currently bugged and will only be fixed with 2.1, your FA gets overriden by the passive fetishes
