DR does have an increased ehp effect as you get more of it, so despite the diminishing returns you're still losing out on a lot of effective health pool. Inara will actually gain more absolute effective health from Haven when MG is active, it's just less proportionally. Around 1k ehealth without it, 1.5k with it active.

@Cross1nsan1ty

@@Darzk92590 no one said it didn't. However i find the utility of having Chronos/Vet instead of Hav/Vet outways the extra 500 EHP and cost of getting haven maxxed. I could purchase morale for extra stuns, master riding to get back into the fight from a death, get extra lvls in on Rejuv. Many things, however a majority of my matches either go 9 min or 18 min. Getting haven doesn't go well in my experience so take the anecdote as you will.

New player here making my way through a bunch of your videos, thanks for all your content!

Brings me joy that right when we’re getting some new players that you’re making these videos. It’s much appreciated for the vets that have been playing for 5+ years. The game lacks to teach the knowledge you actually need to play the game, and it’s left too the recognized to teach the community. Which is sad, but like I said I’m really happy that you’re doing this it’s much needed keep it up chicken man👍

I started playing this game on Monday and this is very helpful Ty

You know I've been telling other content creators to make a video about this over the past couple years because paladins literally teaches you nothing about this and there's not a lot of content out there on this. Grant it you learn it from playing the game but I always thought a video on this would be so useful to noobies. Thank you Andrew for making a video on this and putting this information out there for new players.

The comments about diminishing returns on DR and not buying Haven for Inara are just wrong tho. Going from 50% to 56.864% damage reduction on Inara grants her an extra 1495 effective health; when MG is on cooldown you get an extra 1031 ehp. The balance between Chronos, Rejuv and Haven is up to player discretion but all three are contenders.

You could've also mentioned lex/octavias passive abilities that can help with credit generation. Also i always thought that rejuvenate and cauterize interact as rejuv wil l increase your healing and then cauterize works. Meaning that if you get healed by 750 but rejuv increases this by 30% (+225 healing = 975 healing) and then cauterizes effect works so the healign is reduced by 90% (so 97.5 healing). I didn't realize that rejuv just decreases the caut.

The best items to buy on Yagorath is Haven, Life Rip, and Resilience. Haven protection you in travel form and your headshot hitbox. Life Pip keeps you alive longer and with a self healing you will win most fights. Also life rip works with her acids spray and pools. and Resilience which works with the card Extermination Didn't buy Rejuvenate because you shouldn't be that close to your team to get much use out of it as you can't stand in the open on Yagorath as it is. Seriously, I had to tell people to stop following me while I was on Yagorath because they can't keep up and only putting themselves in dangerous situations or... and this is the key part GIVING AWAY MY POSITION!!! Do not buy Chronos. You may think it's a great idea. It is not. First the things you are using the most which is her quills and acid has cards that works better. And the things with the longest cooldowns you shouldn't be using that often. It is best to attack over using Hardening or Acceleration. Hardening isn't use for protection outside if some ultimates Acceleration should never be used from spawn be it is your projection ability. You have no idea how many Maeve players run after me thinking it is an easy kill only to die within seconds as self healing cards and life rip and she can't keep up with Yagorath. Even at self healing, she can't so enough damage to kill. Primal vision will let her know exactly where you are. Also her piercing quills go through everyone and shields and acid spray goes though people. It is always best to not aim at the person in front of you but aim though them to the person behind them. Also aim at people's feet. This will maximize damage output which Yagorath has the highest damage output of all frontlines with 1000 to 1100 damage per second per person because again Piercing Don't buy Morale Boost because you shouldn't be using your ultimate that much as it is. If I didn't say it here, that's because you shouldn't get it, your abilities does what it does, it isn't worth getting it, or you can't get it.
