Question about hammerdins

I have a hammerdin that is lvl 86 and I know where to put all the stat points and what to wear.
My skills are:
Blessed Hammer-20
Vigor-20
Blessed Aim-20
Concentration-20
Holy Shield-7 (will be 20)

But my question is should i get Redemption and Salvation compared to the +30% defense to holy shield I would get from putting those 2 points into defiance. Everybody that I have talked to in game says its worth getting R&D but can you point me in the right direction and please explain why these would be worth getting over defiance. Thank you for your time in reading this and your responses.

Thanks,

DarkWarlord

Re: Question about hammerdins

I allways have redemption (just 1 point - rest is done by +skills) on my hammerdins. It's a handy skill to quickly refill your red and blue bulb in tight spots. And once you get the hang of it, you will rarely need purple pots.
I never use salvation personally, but it has it's uses. Among dolls the Sanctuary aura can save your life by pushing them away to a safe blow-up distance. I have seen many players advocate Sanctuary for this very reason.
