If you want that then i would suggest fallowing HoH's plan, I have also put 20 points into thorns for hell cows and other things that do a lot of damage. The build i guess could be like
str see below
dex need to have so you have a 75% chance to block, might need more depending on your weapon
vit see below
mana none

I have my str and my vit almost equal on my pally who is at lvl 75 here is what he uses it is decent stuff i guess. But you would be able to improve on
helm-stealskull
armor-silks of the victor
gloves-venom grip
boots-tearhuanch
wep-ls
shield-rhyme prolly want Hoz here

Hope this is helpful
