This build focuses on the synergy between Hammer and Anvil and the Avenging Crusader talents. Both of these place heavy emphasis on casting Judgment as frequently as possible, and less on some of your standard core abilities such as Holy Shock. This build excels when you are in spread encounters and are unable to make great use of Herald of the Sun, but it does require you to constantly be in range of the boss to make use of Crusader Strike as much as possible.

This is the build you will be playing the majority of the time. It focuses on Holy Shock, Holy Light and Infusion of Light. The goal is to press Holy Shock as much as possible, spending Holy Power whenever you can, and consuming Infusion of Light when you cannot do the other two actions.

The Mythic+ build is your standard melee-centric build that emphasizes heavy use of Crusader Strike for increased value of Holy Shock (thanks to Crusader's Might) and Holy Power spenders.

This build focuses on optimizing damage while maintaining the standard Mythic+ talents. If you ever are in need of additional healing, you can look towards dropping some damage talents in favor of more healing.
