Which Paladin build should I try?
Consecration Protection
Our defensive alternative to chasing a single flashy spell. Protection has a coherent documented loop: Hammer creates holy ground, Consecration builds shielding, and surviving behind that shield also supports damage. It rewards preparation and positioning without making you invulnerable.
Inspect these talents: Improved Consecration and Weighted Hammer · Hallowed Ground · Ardent Defender and Blessed Life · Judgement of the Crusader · Hammer of the Righteous.
Read setup, upgrade priorities and the run plan →Exorcism Retribution
The Art of War and Divine Storm describe a clear offensive relationship: critical strikes may supply an extra Exorcism, and Exorcism can gain nearby splash damage. Conviction and Holy damage support therefore deserve specific consideration. This is a source-based build concept, not a measured claim about the highest-damage Paladin setup.
Inspect these talents: Conviction · The Art of War · Sanctity Aura · Vindication · Pursuit of Justice · Divine Storm.
Read setup, upgrade priorities and the run plan →Compare your current starting point.
Check the Armory before a run. A described starting-spell milestone only applies when your selected talents provide it. Choose the route whose available core and support match your character, then use the guide’s conditional priorities to compare real offers. These are original build proposals rather than a measured ranking between the two.
