Build Overview

The Spear of the Heavens Paladin Build Guide teaches you about Gear, Skills, Paragon, Playstyle & Seasonal Mechanics in Diablo 4 Season 15.

Spear of the Heavens is a Judicator Justice Skill that focuses on dealing the most possible damage through procing Judgement. Spear of the Heavens becomes a true menace once you have access to the Unique Ring Seal of the Second Trumpet.

Our main way to deal damage is through Judgement. Judgement is a sub-skill which is applied through Reach of the Law Arbiter of Justice. It is then detonated by Blessed Hammer: Shattering Blow to generate insanely damaging explosions.

Core Items and Requirements

Tibault's Will allows you to sustain the little Spear of the Heavens: Fist of the Heavens you cast.
Fists of Fate are only worth using if they are Mythic
- Multi goes from worse than Aspects to better.
You need enough Cooldown Reduction to sustain Arbiter of Justice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Core Mechanics

Damage

Our damage comes from the Judgement sub-skill. More information on the inner workings can be found below. That being said, we increase its damage with powerful multipliers such as Judicator,, Seal of the Second Trumpet, Aspect of the Golden Hour and Aspect of the Judicator. We apply it with Aegis and Arbiter of Justice: Reach of the Law on to our Spear of the HeavensPronouncement of Heaven and detonate it early with Blessed Hammer combined with Judicator.

Judgement Mechanics

Judgement is a sub-skill that benefits from Critical Strikes but can not apply Lucky Hits.
Judgement Day spreads Judgement to unaffected enemies after detonation, leading to crazy chain-reactions.
Judgement's damage is based on % Weapon damage.
Judgement's damage is based on the Rank of the skill that applied it.

Resource Management

Tibault's Will grants a lot of Regen.

Before Tibault's Will you need a combination of Faith per Second and LHC: Restore Resource.

Why are we taking Rite of Might, how are we generating Resolve?

We generate Resolve with Aspect of Dominance.
