Stat

Points to Invest

Notes

Strength

156, or more for gear

Mostly what you will need Strength for is to equip needed gear. The Spirit shield on switch requires a 4-socketed shield, and the lightweight Monarch is the usual choice for this. 156 will be more than enough for most of your gear, unless you pick a heavy base item for your Runeword armor. Choose wisely!

Dexterity

Depends on gear (shield)

Most Paladin gear doesn't require Dexterity, but Phase Blades require 136 if you want to use those. Otherwise, don't invest much here. This build uses 1 point in Holy Shield, which with recommended skill items gives 6-7 points. This gives 26-27% blocking at these levels, meaning that you will need to make up 48-49% to hit the 75% maximum Block. Use this formula to figure out what you have to invest in Dexterity:
Dexterity = ((150 * Character Level) / Shield's Chance to Block) + 15

Vitality

Energy

None

Your mana problems won't be solved by putting points in Energy, and it reduces your survivability. Don't put any points here.

This skill is the reason for the entire build. To get the most of it, it requires the synergies of Resist Fire, Resist Cold, Resist Lightning, and Salvation from the Defensive Auras build. Without these damage synergies, it isn't enough to be a strategy cornerstone. Single-target damage only, which limits its usefulness in group situations.

The Paladin's One Point Wonder, Holy Shield greatly increases your block chance and defense. With the +Skill items needed by this build, you'll have plenty of points for this to make a huge difference in survivability.

Leveling as a Avenger Paladin in Diablo II: Resurrected Ladder Season 13Best Mercenary for Avenger Paladin in Diablo II: Resurrected Ladder Season 13

Weapon - The Insight runeword is pretty much a hard requirement.

Helm - Any traditional Act II mercenary helm works here, such as Vampire Gaze for the dual leech and added Cold damage or Guillaume's Face for Deadly Strike and Crushing Blow.

Armor - Fortitude is a relatively cheap Runeword with high defense for a very tanky minion. Treachery is a higher-DPS choice that also isn't ridiculously expensive. Just make sure you pick a base item your Mercenary can wear with his current Strength.

Small Charms - Avenger Paladin should look for Charms that give +Resistances, +Life, +Defense, and +Elemental damage. Picking up extra Resistances from Charms will make the higher difficulty levels easier to deal with. The unique charm Annihilus is the best Small Charm available, granting +Skills, +All Attributes, +All Resistances, and 5-10% extra experience. This charm only drops off Uber Diablo.

Large Charms - The same traits you will look for in Small Charms will also be available in Large Charms. Small Charms tend to scale better, so look for Small Charms to replace Large down the road. The unique Large Charm Hellfire Torch grants +Skills, + Attributes, and +All Resistances. This charm drops from the Pandemonium event.

Grand Charms - For Grand Charms, you'll want anything with +Defensive Auras class skills. , which are the most useful of the three trees as these all improve the four elemental damage synergies to Vengeance. +Combat Skills are the second in line of preference, since two skills rely on those (Vengeance and Holy Shield), but +Offensive Skills are the least useful as there is only one skill involved. The unique Grand Charm is Gheed's Fortune, giving big boots to Magic Find and Gold Find, and reduces vendor prices by 15%.

This is a great starting point, though I do have a few suggestions and questions. First the suggestions, I wouldn't go for salvation maxed and leave the resist auras hanging as 1 point in each resist auras nets you a 10% bonus to all 3 damage types and 3 points in salvation results in 6% to all types. It is also worth pointing out that conviction has a cap to -res of 125%, making any +skills above 25 superfluous and so enabling you to shift points away into synergies. As to the gear I was wondering if there was a specific reason to not use Doom for the weapon, Dream for the helm, Dragon for the chest, and perhaps Phoenix for the shield? Those would solve quite a bit of problems in my mind, mainly with the lack of aoe damage and difficulty with leech. The fire/freeze/shock auras get the bonuses from their synergies (unless they've changed that since the original), making for solid area damage magnified by conviction, providing increased safety with the slow from freeze, and also adding a sizeable chunk of single target damage as well. Phoenix's redemption would be a constant source of mana and health as long as you're dropping enemies and it adds fire absorb to help cushion the lack of resists.
