I'm also trying this build out - and didn't have the problems you have - and I think that's because you skipped to far ahead with your gear. When I was where you are, I had all the Tiered Uniques from the early game section (Tier 6) except for the shield which is
Sangreal
Sangreal
Paladin Shields
'OhmSol'
Runeword Level: 70
Demon Blood Aura
You and Undead Minions: Maximum Life +6%
26.6 Yard Radius
-10% Base Block Chance
25% Attack Speed
40% Hit Recovery
+(10 to 15)% to Summoned Minion Life
+33 Defense
and still using Mind Flay. MO'd
everything with +Lightning Spell and FCR. Damage reduction MO's where they'd fit -

's Demon Blood Aura is the real winner at this point and really helps to keep the Scourges (and you) alive and tanking. Maxing Tainted Blood and Stormlord is important, +skills on your neck/rings/weapon helps a lot as well. Slayers and Scourges should always be out; Slayers not *as* important to always have out, just don't forget you have them! With this gear I was able to hop into Destruction and do Act 1 and 2 with ease and got the Dark Tomb and jumped back to Terror to finish my Black Road challenge (big buff to survival), where I'll remain to farm Learning Signets. 57k Def is about half of what I had at that point, 8k life was more than enough. No points into Vitality at this point. MXL can take a while to get used to - like equipping a shield with -10% block chance - and the synergies are hard to spot/understand at first and are usually far more powerful than you first would have thought.
@ScarletEdge I've followed a fair number of guides over the years, with varying success, but this build feels very good. Thanks for your time and effort!
