Okay, I’ll show you the truth and the light.

Marvels Tele Smiter is known as one of the best smiter guides ever. Now looking at his life you can see it’s around 4500 but with some tweaks you can almost get 5k.

Due to the nature of a non blocking spirit and or a Phoenix you’re limited to certain health break points.

Now looking at builds you can see we can get around 5600+ life if we wanted to while also maintaining around 60% Ed less than a Phoenix build with the average Phoenix doing around 100 dmg more per smite.

Now smiters swing at 6fps. With an average of 900- 1200 damage per hit.

So basically you’re gonna run up on me with a shield that can’t hit the highs that I can and cannot hit my life break points. The results are a dead Phoenix Smiter.

I could also use crushing blow to overcome the Phoenix with around a 325 Ed build due to how cb works.

Now I’m not gonna go into the details of how the Phoenix build was out smarted by me but it was overcome and will be nothing but a cookie cutter build soon.

useless in d2r unfortunately. Phoenix > rare shield/jstod/jstoc.
Also u want st/sr/kurast for optimal blockrate.
