Build Overview

The Zeal Paladin Build Guide teaches you about Gear, Skills, Paragon, Playstyle & Seasonal Mechanics in Diablo 4 Season 11.

Zeal is a Zealot Core Skill that focuses on dealing the most possible damage through stacking Fervor. Zeal has been an incredibly popular skill back in Diablo 2 and has now returned in new glory! Once you have access to the Unique Red Sermon, your Zeal will slash through foes like a Knife through Butter.

In Season 11 the Divine Gifts do not offer any player power increase. Instead they make some activities more challenging and increase their rewards in different ways. As there are only two choices per slot, we focus on maximizing the defensive bonuses.

How it Works

It's important to run Elixirs and Incenses at all times. Not only because they increase your Experience gain but also because they provide very strong combat boosts.

For Elixirs you will use Elixir of Advantage II to increase our Attack Speed.

For Incenses you will use Spiral Morning for All Stats , Song of the Mountain for Armor and Soothing Spices for All Resistances and more Armor.
