I agree and thank you for the detailed post. Many of them I actually just learned from.

I feel you with the holy freeze pally. There should be more runeword with holy freeze aura. I made a fun build that I called: Melee-Hammerdin. It's just Doom made in Ogre Maul. Then I max zeal, sacrifice, Fana, Light Res, and salvation. He doesn't have shield so I max Light Res for the 90% max Light Res and I also use Dream helm for a bit more Light Dmg and also chance to proc Confuse. The rest of the gear is just Zeal set up with Might Merc holding Infinity. If I want, I can just change gear and it would be zealot (G-face & Phoenix), or dream/zeal hybrid (Dual Dream) without reset skills and points. This build sucks after P3 but decent for solo. Basically just a fun off-meta build

My Dream Zeal does fine with P5. I’m using grief.

Dream Zeal as in dual Dream + main Fana aura or you mean Tesladin?

Dual Dream with Conviction, Decrep on merc beats Fanatic on Pally.

I see. So it's the Tesladin build. Mine does fine in P8 with lvl 81 light dmg small charms and max +dmg weapon. I used merc 3 Fire though. Not because he's stronger, just because Tesladin build is tanky and clear fast enough so I just use Merc 3 like cosmetic companion lol. I feel like this is the only build that makes sense for merc 3 because of the the -150% res mod from Tesladin. I gave him Plague for the Low Res proc and Cleansing aura and Phoenix shield so he can be more tanky.

I think most monsters have 20-50 lightning resistance. So having -150 Conviction nearly perfect because monsters can only have maximum of -100.
