==[[Zeal]]==
'''Required Level:''' 12<br />
'''Prerequisites:''' [[Sacrifice]]<br />
'''Synergies:''' Zeal receives bonus from points spent in:
* [[Sacrifice]]: +12% Damage Per Level
'''Details:''' Zeal is a rapid, multi-strike attack with substantial bonuses to attack rating, attack speed, and damage.
* The first strike will always aim at the targeted monster. The next four will alternate between all targets in range.
** Using Zeal on a group tends to wear all the monsters down gradually and equally. [[Poison]] damage or [[Prevent Monster Heal]] will keep them from healing back during the battle.
** If you wish to kill a single monster in a group, you should use [[Vengeance]], [[Sacrifice]] or [[Smite]] to hit just it.
* If using a one-handed weapon, picking one with 2 or 3 range will work noticeably better than 1-range items, especially when hitting monsters in a group.
* Note that points in [[Sacrifice]] add more to Zeal's damage than points in Zeal itself, though they do not add to the [[Attack Rating]]. If higher damage is the goal, raise Zeal enough to get five hits and the necessary AR, then put points into Sacrifice instead.
* Zeal can not be interrupted; all five hits are always delivered, though not necessarily successfully.
* In earlier versions of Diablo II, Zeal gained a hit with every point spent in the skill. This was a problem for online play, when characters became desynched and stood there swinging 20 times and hitting nothing. The change to 5 fast hits made Zeal the most popular Paladin combat skill.
