powerstrike/retribution.
These are just optimal until you hit monk where doublestrike is very good.
If you want a third ability or swap retribution for something, knockdown, doublestrike even when red and twohitback are viable options.
Revenge is "sort of" viable on paladin but the chances you get all 3 mobs in an attackable position is pretty low so even when blue i think twohitback generally outperforms it. However it's close so nothing really lost in trying it out

Options:

Powerstrike & Retribution: (This is for EE weapon / Stat or EE Armor & Stat Main Charm... EE Heal in ACC optional)
...Get to 40% first in Powerstrike and then 40% Retribution.
...Add points alternately... note if you are using EE armor, you could concentrate on Powerstrike to 55%, then Retribution.

Revenge & Powerstrike: (This is for EE weapon / Stat or EE Armor & Stat Main Charm... EE Heal in ACC optional)
...Get to 48% first in Revenge and then 51% Retribution.
...You can opt for a 3rd ability, up to you, or you can add more to Revenge.
...Note: Revenge is only for the first 2 Columns, it is not about the optimum 3 monsters in the first 2 columns.


Revenge & Retribution: (This is for EE weapon / Stat armor & main charm... EE Heal in ACC optional)
...Get to 40% first in Retribution and then 48% Revenge, then 51% Retribution, then 66% Revenge
...You can ignore this, get Powerstrike to 40% keeping Retribution @ 40 and Revenge @48%.


Retribution & Salvation: (Melee / Heal using +Stat armor/charm and Heal charm ACC)
...Get to 40% first in Retribution and then 40% Salvation.
...Add points alternately or focus more for Salvation if you Heals are less than 100% ee.


I prefer Retribution & Salvation since I don't use EE armor & prefer heavy weapons and of course I use EE heal charms in ACC slot. You will come to your own conclusion that fits your style of play. Oh, I don't mind using Revenge, Retribution & Salvation, I keep Revenge at 48% (only 3 points) and distribute others to Retribution & Salvation, I am not too fussed on 3 abilities. I am not used to it.
