What do you think about this?
If you are @ 490 defense and crush immune, check your total avoidance resp. check how much mana and/or surviving-problems you have.
- If you have problems dying to fast from a lot of big hits in a row => avoid
- If you go oom too fast => Stamina

Staudamm doesn't have any pure Stamina gemming and is doing quite well.

I have read that paladins need more block then parry/dodge beacuse they generate threat greater form being hit. True? Also should I try and get more spell damage in my gear. Currently I am around 390 and have read that 400 is the mark to reach.

Already answered above

Depends on content. Just test & tweak.

First put priorities. Then find your own rotation.
I currently do holy shield, seal/judgement, consecrate and so on.
