Vengeance works from weapon damage only.ĥ. Factors such as Deadly Strike, Open Wounds or Crushing Blow.Ĥ. This has been tested in game to not work.ģ. Weapon added damage that reads 'damage + xx' such as Grief rune word and The Redeemer. Auras enhanced damage such as Might or Fanaticism.Ģ.

Vengeance: Vengeance is a skill that adds elemental damage to every successful attack. Cleansing is added to remove poison and curses(usually beneficial for removing it on Merc). Order of points should be Vengeance, Conviction, Resist Fire, Resist Lightning, Holy Shield, Cleansing and Resist Cold. Offensive Aura charms can reduce your point needs into Conviction but that is not necessary.

Rest into Vitalityġ09/110 so a point to anywhere you want. Stats: Enough to equip gear and achieve max block. Therefore, due to the resists, this build would work well on Softcore and Hardcore but I must stress this is NOT a PvP build and is not exactly cheap. Furthermore, your Resists will be SKY HIGH for Fire, Cold and Lightning(95 instead of 75) and Poison will be really decent as well(85 in fact).

The following build is probably the most versatile PvM Paladin build in the game as no enemy is immune to your attacks.
