I’d use something like that, and perhaps when fhr becomes irrelevant go for a shako jstod setup, it’s easy to hit 50 dr with anyway and it’ll give you high life and tbh stormshield has rly bad base dmg, not to mention that 1% ed equals about 2,5 life of value

i mean. i would use something like that too LOL

I do have basicaly that setup though. except sword + belt + ammy + raven shield + my coa isnt as nice lol

I figured

It’s not copying the names, it’s basically the name of the char/build. It’s like saying a hammerdin shouldn’t be called a hammerdin but a blesserman

Smiter = vindicator
Foh = Templar
Charger = crusader

Hence why v/t v/c t/v whatever

Updated guide with a build resembling a d2r version of your provided build - Thanks!!

seems like it will actually RIP in SVS

Appreciate it bro got a lot of years of svs theorycrafting into it, however I gotta say without 25% firestorm torches and perhaps a fhr update in the upcoming patch the 48 fhr won’t be necessary anymore and the shako setup comes in very handy

48 fhr never been necessary in svs on lod too

i love the damage 30fcr setup! but according to my testing in d2r fhr is pretty useless still. almost unnoticable changes in duel testing from 86% fhr to 0% fhr. i recorded and counted frames in premiere ect.

It has been the last 4-5 years trust me, blizzard fucked up in a patch around that time making you absolutely permanently stunlocked when playing 0 fhr in svs, especially vs 25% torches.

We’ve been active in a smite vs smite league for over 2 years now with 8-25 members active at a time, daily. Once 500K+ fg smiters with shako and absolute top notch gear but 0 fhr became absolutely useless and lost matches 10-0 even tho holding the #1 rank on every season before that.

But it might be different in d2r and I agree that before 2018 smiters didn’t need any fhr whatsoever and could aim for 5800 life setup without issues.

Also after 2,4 I’m fairly sure fhr is no longer relevant for nearly every char and especially not for smite vs smite

Yes I was told about this a couple years ago. But tbh I did not notice much differences dueling with 0/10 fhr Vs higher fhr coa builds. Only one time in dunno 5/6 ft 10 it happened to be fhr torched. Thing is if firestorm proc you can charge away generally.
