Build Overview

This Paladin Endgame Build focuses on optimising the Damage from Divine Lance as a Javelin Thrower whilst staying tanky enough to beat all end game content.

Check the How It Works Section below to learn how the Divine Javelin Paladin pierces through all Endgame Content.

If you've just started your character check out these LEVELLING GUIDES which will help you get from Level 1 - 60 and head to the TIER LIST for all other available endgame builds.

I'l be live streaming most evenings (GMT) on Twitch, YouTube, Kick or X. This is a great time to come ask me questions directly!

Sanctification

This variant is designed to get you started towards getting to T4 Content straight from Levelling.

You will ideally have a Light's Rebuke by this point which makes the build functional.

Everything else is Optional but very nice to have.

If you have everything this requires be sure to check out Endgame for Next Steps.

Unique Items

If you happen to come across any of the following Unique Items they will greatly boost the build:

Light's Rebuke

- Boss Drops: The Beast In The Ice + Urivar

- Big Damage with Divine Lance

Runes

Moni + Lum

- Activates Every 2 Attacks
- Solves Divine Lance Resource Issues

Cir + Thul

- Grants 15%[x] Damage against affected enemies

Note: If you do not have a Moni then you will NEED to have Resource Cost Reduction and Faith per Second on your Equipment and Tempers to try counter Resource Cost of Divine Lance.

The Moni solves this problem for you.

How it Plays

The following steps are the recommended Build Rotation for skill usage:

Cast Falling Star to position and activate Arbiter of Justice via Disciple.
Cast Consecration for Healing, apply Weakened to enemies and Immobilise them.
Cast Condemn to Pull In Enemies, Stun them and make them Vulnerable.
Cast Fanaticism Aura and Defiance Aura to help Reset Non-Aura Skill Cooldowns.
Cast Divine Lance liberally around the other skills.

Repeat each step as necessary

How it Works

The Disciple Oath
Juggernaut Damage Scalers
Arbiter of Justice for access to Arbiter Synergies.
Falling Star for Insane Mobility.
Consecration for Sustain and Damage Reduction on enemies.
Condemn for Pull In Utility.
100% Block from Shield and Passives.
Unstoppable from Defiance Aura.
Extra Attack Speed and Critical Chance from Fanaticism Aura.
As much Attack Speed as possible through Equipment, Skills and Passives.
As much Cooldown Reduction as possible through Equipment, Skills and Passives.
Reaching 100% Critical Chance through Equipment, Tempers & Sanctifications.

Check out the In-Depth Explanations below for further details on the build.
