hey, i started dueling with a charge pally a few days ago, he's lvl 69, has an upped vampire gaze, upped shaftstop, wartravs, hellmouth gaunts, 2x dwarf star rings, and a BOTD ghost spear. all in all, i do 20k charge dmg. and i can't remember what belt i have, but i does damage reduce 19%. so he's pretty great against mele guys. i'm thinkin bout trading my botd ghost spear for 2 botd berz axes, and using my SS. what do u think? the dwarf stars, and hellmouth makes me great against fire sorcs too.
thx, peace.

my bad, the belt does 14% dmg reduce. sry.
This build might make a good caster killer if your careful, but will have trouble dueling melee chars w/o a shield. Also charge is very buggy and thus that prevents it from becoming a common pk build.

20k Charge damage is nice, but if you walk into a whirlwind it can be a rather mute point.
Personally I believe the sheild to be the best thing a paladin has going for them and you don't lose so much damage as to say to yourself "Oh fiddle sticks, I need to hit him in 3 charges instead of 1"
Even a charger with a 1handed wepon would probably beat a ghost spear charger, just by numbers.
i have a charger as well... max vigor might and charge (working on smite now)
He uses a ebotd zerker and um'd hoz but on switch he has a botd war pike :)
w/ the warpike he does 28k dmg (i leave vigor on because i think teleing all the time is lame) and with the zerker he does around 11k.. i think. The problem i have is that once someone blocks my charge (or i just plain miss, damn dodge/evade) there isnt much i can do other than 1) smite 2) run and try again
with the warpike though i am unable to smite so i mainly stick to my zerker if im dueling anyone good. just my 2 cents

-Go for holy freeze and increase with items and use charge this combination could bend down any barb easily...But may have some trouble about throwers and frenzy babas.
Edit:Eeh...Smite?
Yeah, I built a level 87 pure charger to use a cranium basher that I found. Decent damage 2 handed, but I found that using an eth death ettin axe and a HOZ is a lot more practical. 10K one handed is not astronomical, but it works, and the added resists/skills/block from the HOZ are invaluable. I keep a demon limb on the switch for enchant only to boost my ar. Fun build.
I tried a steel pillar before reaching 87, and I will admit that it looks badass.
