Looking for a build...

A group of friends and I are rolling characters together to burn through the game and eventually do MF runs. My friends are necro/paladin/druid/mage. What I'm looking for is a build that will allow me to debuff/buff my group to make MF runs faster and more effective. I'd also like to have some personal damage capability for when they're not on but it's not a huge priority.

I'm not sure how conviction or the other Auras work. The last time I played Diablo 2 was about 5 years ago and I played a druid. One of my friends at the time played a paladin and another buddy played a mage and we blasted through Hell difficulty so fast it was funny. I don't talk to those guys anymore so I have no clue which skills seemed to make the combo so powerful.

I'm not too worried about PVP but if that is possible with a build like this that would be fun too.

Any suggestions on where to look? I read on some other forums that conviction would help but then somewhere else it said don't bother maxing it as it doesn't effect spell damage. What's the truth?

Thanks

Re: Looking for a build...

Best way to approach this: there are 2 auras that are extremely helpful to parties: Fanaticism to boost physical damage and Conviction to boost elemental damage (not poison). So ask your friends what kind of damage they do, and pick the aura that will help the group most. Next, make a build you like that uses that aura. If you go with Fanaticism you should consider a Zealot, if you go with Conviction you can take the build that Spinns recommends. See the stickies for guides.

Also make sure you have one point each in the following utility skills:
- Salvation
- Meditation
- Cleanse
