hey, i want to make a smiter, not pure svs, but more like pub vs that play alot vs smiters
i wander about SvS fight, what if the right inv setup, if i cant affort pc lifers, only clean
i mean, its about number of hits to kill, vs number of hits to take without dying
if i can take isually 3.9 hits, its the same as 3.1 hits, cus the next one will kill me
so maby its better to go more life to be able to take 4-4.2 hits, and deal less dmg(cus 20l scs instead of sks) or go for 3.1 hits, and more sks (the numbers are only theoretic)
what you think is the best setup?
1 - lower life\more damage
2 - min-max ballance
3 - more life\lower damage
-i talk only about charms
tnx :)

What you are asking for is conflicting.
You want to be prepared to fight vs smiters only but also be prepared to fight vs all.
Can't have both ways, best option is to have life or life/resistance small charms.
Then slowly build up your skill grand charms with health and swap in and out at your pace.

Smite vs smite is very simply just a mathematical equation game. Wherein it’s about who can take more smiters than the other.

Because of Crushing Blow, 3.9 hits is actually going to allow you to take more hits more often than 3.1 hit setup, because when a crushing blow goes off on your smite received, you are now going to be in the 2.8 hit range, thus causing you to take 1 less smite.

However, you can drop down from the 3.9 hit life ratio to somewhere around 3.5 and still be safe.


The best budget build will be something like:
60+ Ed 4 socket white Paladin elite shield (not rare, not magical, just white) with 3x Ber and a 35+Ed/15+ life jewel
Shako
Dungo
Fort
20ias gloves
Raven frost
Bk ring or some rare/craft with lots of Str and life
Waterwalk boots or the unique light played boots with like 25% crushing blow
9x 20+ life Pcomb Gcs
10x 20 life small charms
Maras or 2paladin/life/Str amulet



Pure smite vs smite can be pretty cheap to build. Upgrades are relatively minor but are expensive
