Currently my paladin is at level 100 with item level at 696.
Then blame your healer. You are doing nothing wrong. I could heal you even if you do no mitigation, if your healer rather deals damage even if you use mitigation and you still die, it is his fault. Some healer are greedy with damage, if they see you use clemency, it is like a sign for them to not heal you, because you seem newbie then, that you rather heal yourself than to deal damage. Only heal yourself when you drop under 25%.

Wait a few secs of damage before you use a mitigation buff, so you drop under 80% HP at least. Then you can use sentinel, that is usually enough for 10s and your holy sheltron etc. After you could rampart + another tiny one like reprisal, if you are still dropping and mobs above 50% then add arms length or bulwark. If mobs still above 50% after you had 30-35s of mitigation, then your damage dealers probably underperform, tell them to aoe if you notice they do single target... Pop hallowed ground and pull 1 pack less next pull unless it is getting easier.

Food gives you around 10% more HP. Using arms length on boss is fine but if mobs hit hard keep it for them. Usually boss damage is not high.
