Life leech works vs summons. Many many BvCs use SoE/Dracs especially vs - you guessed it - wind druids, because you can leech both the summons and the oak sage. Many weapons also have life leech, and even some popular helm choices (arreats, andys). By using bramble, with its inherent thorns aura, you can negate life being leeched from your summons. I mention this because using spirit wolves is a great way to force extra hit checks vs. whirlwind, and to split other autotargeting melee attacks such as fury and zeal.
Something I also didn't catch earlier - Rog, your guide is geared towards fury moreso than rabies. This guide is more rabies heavy. To suggest using bloodfists to a person who already mentioned he favored bramble as an armor is silly - as jalals/bramble/verdungos together hit 90% faster hit recovery, making the need for bloodfists/crafted belt negligible. This maximizes rabies damage, by the ability to use trangs, without sacrificing fhr. Of course, this way of maximizing rabies damage doesn't maximize overall hitpoints, as you can pack on 600+ life by using bloodfists and a life/str crafted belt.
Who is rog? lol but u hit the nail on the head for the most part there

uh couple suggestions for when fightin a smiter, toss on your big 2 hander, shadow dancer boots, have a 12fhr ss charm and coa so you have max dr and hit highest fhr bp, you said these guys are easy... you musta never fought a good one. these are pretty much the hardest to kill besides fb sorc, and v/t
I never said smiters were easy lol they are one of your toughest opponents, but they can be beat!

i agree on you there(my bro wrote this stuff before), also bloods get you too much fhr together with bramble/jalalas etc~~
