Still working on getting videos ready, new computer coming tomorrow, vids shortly after that hopefully.

wut smite dam? and lol looks like a pretty decent build, gg

When I used a weapon damage calculator it came out to around 5.5k. That can go up and down depending on what gear I'm using.

If you want to double check yourself, right now I have a 400dmg griefz with lvl 14 smite, lvl 28 fanaticism, lvl 33 holy shield, &147 strength.

edit: just reran calculations and it came out to 5k smite damage. If you're smiting without fanaticism (which is a good idea vs trapsins and javazons) your damage will be around 2.5k.

nice guide if you ever want to duel me useast softcore ladder, let me know. i have a nice ele druid

this guide looks good and has me thinking. I was fooling around with different ideas for a smite/fire aura hybrid but this one seems like its more versatile. Hmmm

Thanks for the feedback. Fire/smite can work and you'll probably have better matchups vs smite and ww barbs, though you have to switch smite unless you want to be stuck with a lvl 28 holy fire aura. The nice thing with dream/smite is that you can use enigma and grief on main and switch for CTA/spirit. I'd tried switch smiting with this build originally (crescent moon or 30/-30 lite main, grief+hoz on switch) but I found the switching unreliable, for example you can't switch in the middle of a charge. You also have to prebuff in that case, which is kind of a pain.

Also, resist lightning is way more valuable in matchups than resist fire (trapsins, javazons, lite sorcs, foh, v/t)

letmypeopleho69 has a fire/smite build that he says works really well, though he's not exactly candid with the details. He might be more willing to help someone with a trusted tag though

@Jawn: Thanks, I'll definitely drop you a pm as soon as I'm back up on my main computer with d2.
