hammerdin with only a shield, relying on using synergies and helping auras and not concentration mostly.
with a 4x perfect diamond shield and if you add in level 9 salvation(not including quest bonus) you've got maxed resists in hell. since getting diamonds can be hard you can just as well use the individual resist boosting gems, poison resist isn't very important.
you use concentration at level 1 since it still adds a good bonus(and with +paladin skills shield on switch more so) at low risk areas, or a mid-level sanctuary(the undead knockback is very powerful) but mostly salvation.
