v/t or t/v doesnt matter. max smite+max fana+rest hs (1 if ur t/v) gives the best dmg.

in a gm v/t t/v duel, the t/v has much more of an advantage

i am a fairly well known v/t, and i died to a t/v with:
max foh
max holy shock
max holy shield
1 charge
1 convic
rest smite

And he had 3x pcombats, with the rest 20 life sc's and he beat me smite vs smite

and by the way, u cant get ias off of gloves with smite

^you can def use ias from gloves to reach next BP on smite...

1. why so low life? 2. why max fana ... u have often to smite with activated resi aura ...

any good dueler uses +150 stack res normal gear or close (if they dnt, there not worth dueling) so the etra - doesnt do anything


also i find more smite with a 3-4k foh works alot better than more Foh

Very nice guide.. Although i prefer more smite damage thats not your build and i understand

Well, this one is quite familiar to my old pally, but not fully same and I don't agree at some points;
won't note everything down anyway...

full stats of my pala:

3.8k life WITH BO

2.3k smite (silence pb)
2.xk smite + slow + fun with +4 Astreon and exile for full smite

6.xK FoH (silence pb)
8.2k FoH with FoH scepter + other FoH itam for full FoH


used silence PB for max resi, ias (fastest weapon) and also nice smite; +2 skills for FoH, which makes it a great all-rounder, but I *DIDN'T* have Grief PB + Torch, coz it was 1.10 and before reset & new items


Questions to you:

1- How about Storm track dupe boots? quite nice as well, huh?
2- Your pally has 3.7k - 4k life WITH or WITHOUT bo?


if more questions or comments from my side, I'll write them down later

Overall a nice guide

my skills so far are 20 in foh 20 in holy shock 20 in hs and 15 in conv.. I guess I should start adding to defiance instead of fan/smite huh? =p

Well, your guide is very nice, yes... but where's the invent: Charms...?

I aim for 5x pcomb lifers
