Endgame Zeal Paladin Build (Argent Veil Variant)

Once you obtain Argent Veil, the build transforms completely.

Core Endgame Skills

Zeal - Cull the Wicked: Still your main DPS source
Consecration - Hallowed Ground: AoE damage, healing, and Diablo 4 Items consistent Weaken application
Defiance Aura - Rite of Prayer: Core defensive layer
Rally - Words of Rejuvenation: Movement speed and Fortify generation with Arcadia
Arbiter of Justice - Seraph's Wings: Triggers free Zeal procs via Argent Veil

Argent Veil, a Unique ring, automatically casts your equipped Core skill after dodging while in Arbiter form. This means Zeal procs for free-no Faith cost, no health cost, and no downtime. Enter Arbiter form, dodge, and simply move through enemies while Zeal obliterates everything around you.

At this point, the build becomes extremely smooth and low-maintenance, ideal for high-tier Nightmare Dungeons.

Passive Skills and Capstone Choice

This build relies on a consistent passive setup focused on survivability, Fortify, and damage scaling:

Key passives include Fortitude, Crack in the Armor, High Charity, Iron Sharpens Iron, Shining Armor, Giant Slayer, and Sacred Arms.

Best Capstone Passive

Coat of Arms is the optimal choice in the endgame. It provides a massive, unconditional damage bonus based on Armor and Block Chance.
Path of the Penitent is strong early, but loses value once Argent Veil removes frequent Zeal casting.

Coat of Arms scales naturally with buy duriel mats your defensive stats, making it ideal for late-game optimization.
