The Zealot, Zealer or Zealadin is a Paladin build that focuses on the Zeal skill. It’s the build’s main attack and it is often used along with the Fanaticism Aura, which boosts attack speed and damage. Zealots are very effective at fighting versus monsters but they are weak in Player versus Player fights. Crushing Blow (Diablo II) Crushing Blow is a Diablo II combat mechanic that appears as a Chance on Hit mod on several Unique, Set or Rune Word items. The game will roll for the chance for the mechanic to occur on every eligible melee or ranged attack. If it is chosen to happen, the attack's target has its heath reduced by a measured percentage.

Here are some facts about the Diablo 2 Rune words:

When you create a Rune Word you still receive all of the magical bonuses that were already on each Rune you Socketed.
Socketed Items must have the exact number of sockets as the Rune Word formula requires. If the Rune Word is a 3 Rune formula then you must use an item with exactly 3 sockets. A 4 socket item will not work with a 3 socket formula.
The Socketed Item type must be the correct item type for the formula. If the formula requires a sword, the formula will not work if you use an axe or spear.
Rune Words will only work in Socketed non-magical items. This means that Set Items, Unique Items, or Magic Items with enough Sockets and the proper item type will not allow or convert to Rune Words. Again, they will not work on Magic, Set, Unique or Rare items. So if you have a Mechanic's (or Jewelers item) piece of armor with 2 slots, the Stealth will not work on it because it's magical.
The correct Runes for a formula must be used. If one of the Runes is wrong you receive the bonuses of the Runes inserted but it does not become a Rune Word.
The Rune IO looks a lot like LO. Make sure you use the correct one.
Rune Words will not work in Wirt's Leg
The Runes must be placed in the correct order. You can have the correct Socketed item, correct runes and still not activate the Rune Word if you do not socket the Runes in the correct order. This is because you're trying to spell the 'Rune Word' correctly and you have spelled it incorrectly. Example: 'RalOrtTal'. You must first place Ral, then Ort, then finally Tal into the Socketed Item.
You need the right patch for the formulae to work. Make sure you have the latest patch.

Deadly Strike is a Diablo II combat mechanic that appears as a Chance on Hit mod on several Unique, Set or Rune Word items. With each eligible melee or ranged attack, the game will roll for a deadly strike according to your percentage chance from items. If the roll is successful, your character will deal double damage with that attack.

Properties

Critical Strike and Deadly Strike have the same mechanics and only one of them can trigger on any given attack (so a player can't get quadruple damage)
Does not apply to Impale, Dragon Talon, Dragon Tail, Dragon Flight, Sacrifice, or Smite.
Does work with the Blade Traps.
Skills that convert Physical damage to a different type (magic, fire and cold arrow, Lightning Bolt, Fists of Fire, Berserk) do so after DS or CS are applied, so converted damage is doubled.
They will modify your final Physical damage with Vengeance but have *no* effect on the Elemental damage caused by Vengeance.
Sources of Deadly Strike stack except from a weapon which is not being used to inflict that particular blow (only applies to dual wield Assassin and Barbarians
Different types of Critical Strike do *not* stack (e.g. Barbarian Weapon Masteries and Amazon Critical Strike).
There is no point to having more than a 100% chance of DS/CS.
