1) What is better: holy shock or holy freeze in pvp?
Holy Shock
when active, aura causes pulses of electricity
to damage nearby enemies
adds lightning damage to your attack

Current Skill Level: 32
19: Radius: 24.6 yards
38: Lightning Damage: 1-7761 to your attack
10: Lightning Damage: 1-1293

Holy Freeze
when active, aura freezes nearby monsters

Current Skill Level: 32
19: Radius: 24.6 yards
38: Cold Damage: 2348-2375 to your attack
10: Cold Damage: 469-475
3: Enemies slowed 57 percent

Damage of holy shock is potentially much higher than freeze - but holy freeze slows down and is more consistent in damage.
Which one is better, if any?

2) My other skills are:
20 salva
20 resist light/cold
20 holy shock/freeze
20 holy shield
rest into defiance

should I change anything?
I choose max holy shield + points in defiance to synergise with my high def gear - this should help me with barbs/chargers/amazons?

3) My ideal gear would be:
Grim helm - def res fhr life + ruby/diamond
Ornate plate - def res fhr life +ruby/diamond
Hsarus combo (boots+belt)
Bloodfist
Scepter +2 +3aura ias
Grim shield - def +2 @ +diamond
2x soj
Amu +2 @ adds

Should I change anything?

lol, you cant make an auradin in classic, you cant stack multiple auras, therefore its not an auradin, its just a holy shock paly....
you might be able to kick ass on some noobs if that makes you feel big

thanks to all.
t/c

Conclusion:
You can't rely on some guides found online :)
Max holy shock (+ full synergies) deals ¬100-200 damage to player (good res vs light) when charging, about 0 as an aura!, not mentioning that with Hsarus combo I have huge problem with chance to hit and with angelics/other gear I loose loads of damage, which is already very poor.
Hopefully I could use last respec to pure foh - here no problem with damage :)
