Any good Paladin Builds out there?

I'm currently leveling a Smite Ranger through NM, and just got to lvl-42, when you can first use an HoZ Shield and +skill tab charms. This guy uses Smite/Holy Shield to protect himself while he tags the pack with Conviction or Holy Freeze, then flashes in Fanat to attack with Zeal or his bow. He's currently using a Coldsteel Eye Cutlass and a Kuko. In Hell, I'm planning on replacing the Cutlass with a Lightsabre, and will put one point +skills in Vengeance to handle PI's.

The main purpose of the build, however, is to create the perfect Pally for a Lightning Hose merc. If you hire one in A1 NM, she'll be at lvl-28, just high enough to use a Skystrike bow, Lore Helm, and Spirit Shroud armor. This combo gives her +3 skills for the Lightning Hose, as well as 1-250 Lightning damage on the bow, 40% Lightning Resist on the helm, and Cannot be Frozen on the armor.

Both Fanat and Convict increase her bow's damage, and Fanat accelerates Lightning Hose as well as the bow's attack speed. I use Smite to stun anything that comes close to her, and she hasn't died yet. :)

In Hell, I'm planning on upgrading the Skystrike with Magewrath, and replacing her helm with a +2 skills circlet. This will allow me to give her a 4-socket armor with 4 IAS jewels. At 60% IAS, she should have an 11-frame attack rate even without Fanat, and 10-frames with it. An Atma's Scarab on my Pally will provide Amg Dmg to increase her Physical damage as well. Since she's a Fire merc, half the Magewrath's physical damage will be converted to Fire damage from her Fire Arrows. With Lightning, Fire, and Physical damage, she should be effective against all types of monsters in Hell.
