Ive long had a break with d2, but out of sheer boredom ive considered to go back for a bit. And was thinking of something different to do instead of the usual power builds.
I have long had found the pally auras Sanctuary, meditation and redemption quite interesting. But sanct and redempt is quite quite limited in use. One undead only and quirky, the other needing corpses. So i was thinking of a vengeance pally, but one who is using meditation to fuel his swinging. I know i loose a lot from not having conviction, but he could be a good asset to a party, and not that much have to worry about mana leech. Having meditation means he can keep going a lot longer. Plus he wont suffer from difficulty leech reduction, nor having to worry about leech imune enemies.
And it will be a lot more common to find pallys with conviction. And who doesnt love +700% mana regen when he is around? Especially since vengeance has an obscene mana cost at high levels. And meditation remains usefull versus all enemies. And holy shield would make a nice tertiary skill to pump.
