So, I was looking at building another Paladin for PVM and was thinking something like this.

Combat Skills
1 Sacrifice
20 Zeal

1 Holy Bolt
1 Blessed Hammer
20 Smite

1 Charge
20 Holy Shield

Offensive Auras
1 Might
20 Blessed Aim
1 Concentration
20 Fanaticism

Defensive Auras
3 Defiance
1 Salvation
_______
110 Total

Helm: Guillaume's Face
Armor: Guardian Angel or Fortitude
Weapon: Heaven’s Light(maybe for a while) or black for cheapness then Grief
Shield: Exile
Boots: GoreRider
Gloves: Dracul's
Rings: Unsure.. SoJ most likely
Amulet: Mahim Oak Curio

Crushing Blow:
Heaven’s Light + Gore Rider + Guillaume's Face = 33 + 15 + 33 = 81%
Black + Gore Rider + Guillaume's Face = 40 + 15 + 33 = 88%
Gore Rider + Guillaume's Face = 15 + 33 = 48% but +400 damage from Grief to mitigate
Life Tap:
Exile + Dracul’s = 15 + 5 = 20%

Kind of a poor man's build, but hey ya work with what you have.
So how bad is it? Feel free to tear it up.

Just need to know if it has enough merit to pursue.

Thanks

im sorry to say that this build is a bad idea and you just built a smiter with additional pts but inside other stuff so just call it a smiter and we'll leave it as that

Heaven's Light for Zeal -> you won't be able to kill anything. If you're low budget, stick to Smite. Zealots are like the most gear dependant builds out there.

Yeah, I came to the same conclusion after thinking about it some more. I was thinking I was going to be able to depend on Crushing Blow to do most of the killing for me as long as I could hit but I think it'll probably be a waste at this point.

Deleted the character and am going back to straight Smiter till I have the gear for a good Zealot.
