Ideal Zealot Gear

I am making a Zealot and I was thinking what is the ideal gear for a zealot.

Head: No Idea here actually Gaze ?
Amu: Highlords / Seryphm / Mara
Armor: CoH
Weapon: Grief PB
Shield: HoZ
Belt: Dungos / Strings / T-Gods
Gloves: Dracul / Soul Drainer / Venom Grips
Boots: Sandstorm ?
Rings: Id go with the classic Dwarf Star / Raven Frost

Swap: Either Gimmershard or some bow or a CtA and Spirit Pala Shield

Any ideas ?

If anyone whos reading this is keen on Zealot a detailed answer would be greatly appreciated.

Head: Guillaume's Face (crushing blow, deadly strike, +strength)
Amulet: Highlords (light resist, deadly strike) Maras if you really need the res. all.
Armor: Fortitude if you can get it. CoH is good, too.
Belt: Dungo's. I'd keep a TGods on hand for when Gloams pop up, though.
Gloves: Dracul's (life tap=invicible)
Boots: Gorerider (crushing blow, deadly strike, open wounds)
Rings: Raven. Dwarf Star offers safety against fire, which is nice. I actually like Carion Wind for the ctc Twister. The stun effect is good.
Swap: CTA and Spirit are good. More life. Keep a Gimmershred in your backpack in case you come up against a PI that Decrept can't break.

Your resists will probably be on the low side, so make up for that with charms.

With this gear, you will have huge damage (from Grief), a high % of deadly strike, 50% crushing blow, and life tap. Essentially, you'll be unstoppable. All my suggestions are with PvM in mind, I know nothing of PvP.

I agree with the above except for the reasoning given for Carion Wind, the twisters stun lasts about 0.4 secs so its not really worth mentioning. Raven with a dwarf/wisp/dual leech ring with stats would be my suggestion.

Re: Ideal Zealot Gear

Why a HoZ? I can see it being awesome for a Hammerdin, but for a Zealot there are better options, imo. You don't really benefit from the +skills on the shield, it's not elite, you can get the resists up to only 72 with an Um...

Griswold's Honor (with 3 pdiamonds), Sanctuary or Exile in an elite Paladin shield with high base resists are better for a Zealot in my opinion.
