Theory Craft Thursday is here to give you a chance to contribute all your unique and crazy character builds.  Some people want the most efficient, some want the most fun and others just want to have fun.

This is the place to show off what you find to be an interesting build, for whatever reason you can come up with.  You can use the Skill Calculator from Blizzard to see how the skills work together.  If you are new to Diablo 3 running through the Game Guide is a great place to start with selecting a character.

Currently, I am making an attack speed Crusader.  I had unimaginable amounts of fun playing my Zealer from Diablo 2 and I am trying to replicate that experience.

This 'zeal'sader (which is a working title) is focused on the increased density of monsters in the revamped and improved Diablo 3.  I want this Crusader to be light on his feet as well as pack one helluva punch.

Some general topics of discussion:

• Gear
• Tactics
• Companion Selection
• Potential Problems
• Optional Changes

For example, I am currently looking for a way to duplicate the Zeal attack from the Diablo 2 Paladin.  It may come down to replicating this attack through the use of thorns or some other passive ability.
