Easiest is smiter

Gface Ber (or Cham)
Enigma MP
Grief PB
Phoenix ST 45@ base
String of ears
Dracs
Gores
Maras
Raven
FCR/dex/light res ring (or 2x FCR rings if Cham in Gface)

11 light res SCs + Pcombs

Max fana, HS, smite.

I like to dump remaining points in resist lightning aura. With Lo from Phoenix it’s easy to get 85+ light res. Can run aura vs meph and you will have 90+ light res

1 pt in zeal can be helpful for taking out mobs and to proc tap

Mostly agree but i can’t see point of Ber on Guilli, Gore boots or Fcr ring on this setup. Personally i would Um Guilli, or some single res, use Goblins and Dwarf ring with Raven.

To OP:

Enigma is not so must on UT, cheaper solution would be Smoke or if you can afford Forty then use it. Grief and Phoenix are BiS items here but if you can’t get / afford those then Black in Flail / Knout works and any Elite Paladin shield with base All Res and 4 soc do the job, soc your shield with 4 x Perf Diamond.

I have done Ubers with Smiter like this :

- Guilli ( UM )

- Black ( Grief PB )

- Smoke ( Forty )

- Paladin Shield 4x @ ” 4 x Perf Diamond ” ( Phoenix > Upg Zaka / Exile )

- Draguls ( BiS, CB gloves if you use Exile )

- SoE ( BiS )

- Goblins ( BiS, Gores for OW if you use Exile + CB gloves )

- Prismatic Amulet ( Mara )

- Raven ( BiS )

- Dwarf ( BiS )

LT wand on switch cast it before start killing Ubers and Draguls keep LT on, if you have problems with Res proc Fade from Treachery before you start :) GL & HF

Yes GToes are probably better but I hate the lack of FRW for a bit more CB (50% with gores vs 60% G toes).

Ber is maybe overkill for G Face but it’s relatively easy to stack res and you can’t get DR from charms, so that’s always my go-to.

With Phoenix’s +10 max fire res and integer absorb, plus the flat MDR from SoE, I don’t find dwarf particularly useful as fire damage does almost zero damage.

I prefer enigma build and the ring a lot gives a lot of options in addition to the fcr frame - namely more res and stats. The ability to reposition yourself is too good to pass up. Plus the FRW, +2 adds nice damage to skills + more BO, zero str so even more HP, and the Jah/Ber are cute mods to have as well.


The lifetap wand is not a bad idea I just get lazy and rarely end up using it. I generally just do 1-2 Zeal attacks and that is usually good enough to proc it

I agree that a smiter is easiest with garbage gear. However if you’re gonna run with higher end gear as you suggest I’d just use a mosaic or Javazon. Will clear Ubers as fast if not faster than a smiter and more versatile/better for general pvm’ing.
