Help with stats on Zealer.

Here's a screen shot of my BASE stats now (besides energy):

Don't mind the Crappy Res, that goes up with my gear actually on :laugh:

I'm using Fort, Ward with P diamond in it, gimmershred, Stealskull, treks, 6% strings, vgrips, and Mahim-Oak ammy. I plan on gearing this guy up with:

400+ ED Ebotdz, High raven frost, BK ring, Pally shield Pheonix that has ED and attack rating, the fort I use now, Dream, Seraphs ammy, Eth Treks, dracs, and 8/15 strings. My question is, where should I finish my stats up? I have maxed Fana, Zeal, Sacrifice, and I am starting Holy shield and will finish up on Defiance.

Thanks for the help. I will be most likely using this guy for PvM.

Dexterity
With Fanat and Zeal, and with gear like Ravenfrost, your AR doesn't need any extra dexterity. So you should have enough dex only to hit max block. What I normally do is:
- Aim for a certain character lvl, e.g. 80
- Calculate the amount of dex I need to hit max block (use this formula (http://strategy.diabloii.net/news.php?id=551#Chance%20to%20Block), include lvl 20 Holy Shield bonus)
- Reduce this by the dex bonus you get from your gear and you have the number to aim for.

Strength
Simply find the equipment item with the highest strength requirement and reduce it by the bonuses on your gear. But check if you can put it on; sometimes you have to invest a bit more otherwise you cannot dress up.

Vitality
The rest

Energy
None; get some mana steal.
