Well the problem with all the smite users (overseer, urdar, lister) is that unlike paladin smites its blockable. So its just a +% damage / ar & stun timer, which doesn't mean much
Urdars indeed have the highest regen for demons though at 2.44%/s, all the higher regen mobs are non-demon. And they have 25% cb but it means nothing with damage this high
The +damage should work the same as it does on grief either way since you're just getting +base damage, the only reason it matters for smite is normally that's locked to shield min/max but +damage is one of the few things that helps, whereas monster smite affects their normal attack damage anyway

If any other mob had an unblockable or 2+ hit attack it would be useful since act bosses have ~50% block and all the demons will pause 15 frames between attacks


We’ll sheeeiiiiit, I’m gonna have to swap and try out a lancer then.
Gg thx for infos

Good idea! Two suggestions:

Make her stronger: use shard to terrorize Act 5
Make it easier: use marrowalk bone prison.

Yeah the TZ version from WSK is what I have now, but I tested and shard will not turn matron's den terrorized. So the most you can get from the Matrons Den version is level 86
And she actually has pretty low AR too, so she'd have big chance to hit shortcomings except conviction aura on merc turns anything into 95% chance to hit (+deathmark subtracts ~1000 defense)
The matron's version is special because other lancers have 80-115% of monlvl base HP while the matrons den has 400-500% hence its insanely high HP when bound even if level 99 has higher base monlvl hp

Bound demons are the most fun part of the entire character they should just leave them be :lol:

TIL that uber can't be terrorized.

Given low ar, she will have trouble against Baal/Izual and some ancients with edef rolls. And those are pretty much all that she has trouble to. Yes really gg minion.

Yeah pretty exclusive to ubers since not much else in the game has +% defense and its not like you farm non-uber ancients. But yeah uber baal is level 110 with 3150 defense and +225% chilling armor.
If you use a -995 defense deathmark (I'm assuming it subtracts from base armor like inner sight) and -83% defense infinity that should leave him at 5215 defense instead of his usual 10327
You'd really want a blessed aim merc and/or demon limb enchant to help your spearwoman hit him in this case, because otherwise she's got around 6k ar normal attack, 12k jab, 24k power strike
But nothing in the base game / terror zones will ever really matter and should stay 95% cth

This character needs to be nerfed ASAP!!!

yesterday I was playing with him and I was at level 58. The bind demon was on level 20 and I got the monster from 5th wave from Baal in NM.

I could easily leave that monster do the whole hell difficulty for me while I chill, that is insane
