I'm soliciting user's ideas for the mammoth number of new normal/exceptional sets. There's a lengthy topic with rules for creation and examples here:

As you can see we are about half done, could always use some more help though.
New Set Design

well, I'm going to give two ideas for Paladin Sets (also if Sets are not implemented yet why it dropped me a Set ring?)
first one the Ranger
Patrick's Destiny
Patrick's Faith
(Excepcional) Long Siege Bow
IAS (variate if possible)
ED% Agianst undeads
Patrick's Knowledge
(Excepcional) Winged Helm
25% Fire Resist
+15 Dex
Patrick's Honor
(excepcional) Mesh Armor
% Fast Run/Walk
+X to all resists (variates)
25% poison Length Reduced
Full Bonus
+1 to max Damage per CLvl
+20% to all resists
IAS
4% mana leech
maybe give inestead of the damage on the bow some nice bonus as "Shoot magic Arrows" "or "shoots exploding arrows"
now the tricky one.
the Judicator (for future knowledge the judicator is a PvP Build who uses Smite + Holy Shield + Concentration + Blessed Hammer + Conviction + Fist of Heavens)
the trick in normal LOD was in the skill distribution, since using 10 Combat charms gived him a good boost on all his combat skills
Vendanna's Retribution
(Excepcional) Royal Shield (2 sockets)
+2 to combat skills
+X to all resistances (low bonus, maybe you can give STR since STR give a hidden bonus to Smite but is not displayed on the damage screen)
Vendanna's Soul
(Excepcional) Russet Armor
+1 to Combat skills
-% req
+X% to Lighting Resist
Vendanna's Iron Fist
(Excepcional) Battle Gauntlets
IAS
+STR
Vendanna's Faith
(exceptional) Rune Scepter
2 sockets
+1 to paladin skills
+2 to smite
(inherent) 150% damage to undeads
X% chances to Cast Slvl 6 Life Tap (the unique leech you can get with smite )
Full Bonus
+2 to Combat Skills
+X% to All Resist
+5 to Light Radius
+ other skills
if you need help with the Elemental Zealot (was the best Zealot build for Normal LOD since he killed Faster than WW Barbs ) only need to give a whisper, I know a lot about Paladins (*cough* Paladin Moderator in Diablo II.net *cough*)
hope this helped you a bit (names can be changed, they were only as example )

Elemental Zealot Set (note you can change the item type from normal to exceptional as you wish, since its only a idea)
the purpose of a Elemental Zealot on the normal LOD was avoid the Physical Resistance all monsters have in Hell to improve the kill speed, it also was efficient against Iron Maiden since he used low physical damage weapons and tons of Elemental Damage
Skills he used:
Fanaticism (ED doesn't matter since most damage was elemental)
Conviction (to give more punch to the attack)
so its like an hybrid between Avenger and Zealot (but without Vengeance )
Shield: Dragon Shield (I like this, since I used Tiamat's Rebuke)
Resist 30% lighting
lighting Damage (or similiar to that nice purple dagger)
% chances to cast fire storm
Weapon: a low physical Damage one (mace, exa or sword to your election, but prefer range 2-3)
IAS
Cold Damage
Cold Lenght
Gloves: demonhide gloves
Fire Resist
Fire Damage (or chances to Cast Meteor )
Boots: demonhide boots
20 Fast Run/walk
chances to cast glacial spike
helm: sallet
chances to cast chain lighting
+x to life
+half freeze duration
Full Bonus
+1 to Paladin Skills
Poison Length Reduced
Elemental Damage added
life leech
