druids don't really have a problem vs most things.

did I miss what your rabies damage is? Id like to see what ur damage is with/without Bramble on xD


I'm pulling numbers off the top of my head here smile.gif

58k using a 40% poison bramble and 3 to shape amulet
51k using 3 to shape amulet and enigma
46k using highlords and enigma
43k using enigma and angelics

All of these numbers are taken using a -54 Res Death's web and 20/20 monarch without BO.

Something for you to try vs smiters.
Doom GP & Cleg gloves. I am having great resultes with my Pure fury build. You can ez most in pubs but still run into a few gfg ones that are a challange. You would probably get gg results with your hybrid.

I have considered this option, xXxS4v4g3xXx had also told me about this, but it seems much more suited to pure fury. If I use clegs I loose massive Rabies damage and will be forced to use pure fury, I'll most likely have to use Angelics to get a decent chance to hit, lowering my damage over highlords.

Also I don't have a godly zod bugged Doom Thresher lying around like some people wink.gif

Even if you went straight fury you would probably kill smiters better. Rabies doesn't kill fast enough and a smiter will tap to stay alive. You need more instant damage unless your going to run.
You made the same mistake as me then. Ebug Doom Thresher only has a range of 2. sad.gif

yeh only great poleaxe or G thresher will cut it wink.gif

and i agree with Myrddrall9 in that the 2h Doom + cleg method is more suited to Pure Fury and if a Hyb were to do that he'd have to play like a Pure Fury... although i guess thats no bad thing.
but tbh hitting with Rabbies and walking away usually does the trick with smiters, as long as u dont have summons they dont tap nearly enough to beat ur Rabbies, also keeping a shield is important so their charge doesnt connect.
i have also tried using my friends Doom BA vs smiter, its pretty effective in the hit and run method smile.gif

however one annoying thing is that when u are trying to rabbies them and they casting firestorm from torch... so difficult to see whether uv hit them or not hehe.

The real problem I have with smiters, is when they reduce my rabies to almost nothing using various items.

A hybrid's fury really can't compare to a pure fury's.

Thankfully many smiters don't carry such specialized gear around.

one of the best things for situational usage vs smiters is a fools pb of quickness

for the massive ar gain(this is only if your relying on pure rabies though)

This is another great idea to consider, but remember a wolf's stash is only so big tongue.gif
