this could not have come at a better time. i've only made one smiter before... and i was hoping this guide would help me with the next one. and it really did. smile.gif i was just curious about the alternate build... how much weaker is it (resistance-wise) and the great lw and grief argument continues... still not sure which to go with. still... amazing quality presentation and information!! smile.gif


The 1st setup is the one to use if you're going to go welfare (no torch/anni) while you can pick between both if you use them. The first setup has more stacked resists and the second kills a bit faster.

got to say this build is the shizzit man, love it, i only have 1 question tho, i can kill the bosses with no problem whatsoever, while doing organ runs tho, while i kill the bosses within secs, their minions kill me almost as quickly, any advice on how to avoid this. should i first go in with my nigma-tele to them-then switch back to coh, for the bosses themselves or what do u suggest?

Most organ run minions deal physical damage so it might be a little harder there, so either have someone to teleport to the bosses or make sure that you cast lifetap on them. You will get damaged but they won't kill you.

thats the thing... this build makes it so you have 95-105% crushing blow and i think its a 20% chance to cast life tap... so as long as your IAS is up there you will pretty much never die lol

Gskull with 35 str/10cb/ 2x 15res/15ias jewels is best uber smiting helm imo.

It's not really the kind of helm that we're looking for with this build. You either want to have more than +30 to all resists using Kiras, or more than 10 CB using guillaumes. And the 30 bonus IAS would be overkill.
