Zealots are probably my favorite class build in the game just because they are so cool. Plus they have high survivability which is nice. Hacking away at enemies like a madman on speed is a sweet way to mow down demons and undead. I've made many, many Zealots over the course of time. Although, I admit that sometimes they can be a pain when you're only playing single player if you are having bad luck finding weapons that are worth a damn to keep your damage at a decent level. But that was when I didn't have the expansion or anything. I've even played without the update that added synergies to skills. So that made it harder than what it had to be. Back when I was 16 and played online all the time my Zealot was the highest level character I ever had at level 86. All that being said, I don't think Zealots are the funnest class build in the game to play. I'd have 5o give that reward to the level 76 Lihhtning Javazon I had with a Titans Revenge. Used her mostly to clear cow levels and help people level up. Was super fun though.

A nice combination for the Zealot Paladin is to use Dream, Dragon/Hand of Justice and Doom runeword and let the Act 2 Might (Nightmare) mercenary use Pride runeword. This gives you a huge damage boost as well as dealing elemental damage, which is Holy Shock, Holy Freeze, Holy Shock and Concentration aura (Mercenary). Very closely resemble the Omni Paladin (or Omnidin). However, it can be very expansive or challenging to find the runes for those.

Haha I feel ya! Necro was my first ever character and the first character that I ever killed Diablo with solo. Although it took me forever because he was a Summoning Necro. So as you imagine, Diablo mowed down my skellies over and over as I barely chipped away at his health with each army I sent at him lol. So I'd attack him with an army that me took me minutes to build up. Just to have them take a barely noticeable amount of health from him before they exploded into piles of bones. Forcing me to flee and spend several more minutes rebuilding my army. I still think Summoning Necros are awesome though. I'm pretty sure I chose him because I started off playing single player. So having all those skeletons made me feel less lonely I think haha. Plus, I felt like a badass being the leader of a huge pack of undead warriors. Untill I went up against Diablo of course. Then it dawned on me how weak the build is once you clear normal and enter nightmare. So that was the last Summoning Necro I've built lol. Still have fond memories of him either way.
