Punches knows what he’s doing tho so I’d listen to him😂😂

I'm playing my first vtpk tournament match tomorrow. Probably shouldn't spill the beans on my final setup but whatever

Berber coa
2/20/45life amulet
Enigma
Phoenix 462ed

20ias/7cb/14str/12dex/17life cb gloves

9x 20/5 sc
Mara for bo

The str from my ring and gloves lets me wear coa with base str. Stat enough dex for pb then dump rest into vit. The reason I went with life amulet instead of stat is so I can swap to mara for bo. We are not allowed to use cube or stash to buff so I lose 1 small charm in my inventory for mara. I love crushing blow its powerful and causes knockback which can win you duels and can be very clutch. Also frw is huge. Gores > all other boots imo. The 20ias from gloves gives you 1 frame smite advantage (when you're frozen) over someone not using them in trangs or rends.

I have:
4650+ hp
30fcr
Max dr
Max res (vtpk duels are in NM difficulty)

For skills I Max smite, holy shield, fanat
I put 17 points in foh, 13 points in holy shock, 6 points holy freeze

This gives me maximum smite damage, 3.3k foh, and decent holy freeze radius, 14.6 yards

You can get a 2 pally 20 fcr 20 dex 50 life ammy and swap to maras still

And you can cube Bo in your inventory but ideally only when your not wearing a shako and using rends with a diadem or coa. You must be adding damage to make sense of removing the 15% ed from 1x pcomb.

Crushing blow does not cause knockback, smite causes knock back. The only percent of life taken can cause fhr. But it’s not what you think.

Wow I felt a wiser smiter just from this thread with all the monster-caliber VT players here saying their suggestions. Will bookmark this thread to keep me posted.

I just wished i can join your vtpk ladder. Unfortunately, there isn't any kind of that tournament here on Asia server. Will still practice here on pubs

I’ll eat this Smiter Alive. Even tho I know this is V/T setup.

Smite V Smite been doing it a long time brother. Here is my suggestion.

All in all dmg output is important but at the end of the day you may get outclassed by a 5k+ life Smiter.

Helms: BerBer COA / Jah’d 141 Shako / Ber’d 141 Shako
Ammy: Highlords
Weapon: Grief zerk 40ias (important) 390+ dmg / grief PB 36+ias 390+ dmg
Armor: Enigma
Shield: Phoenix Vortex 45 res 395+/395+ / Phoenix 460+ ED 395+ / upd 200% HOZ
Gloves: GG Rends / 20 ias KB 9%CB dex life res crafted gloves
Rings: BK/Natures Peace/RF you can mix these however you like
Belt: 40/15 Dungoes
Boots: 213 Gores / 65 WW’s

CTA spirit on switch

Inv: 37x 20/5s if you can get it’s tough.
4x 40l x Pcombats res 20/11lrcr

This is by far the best Smite v Smite setup also the Phoenix depends on you. Whichever base you prefer I myself prefer Phoenix if you need anymore info let me know. In game I can show as well.

Smiters can charge = need block
Phase blade = 136 dex to use, aka get mb on 146dex on st
Smite don't freeze, but a charge hit can, and holy freeze is cold damage. So if you want 100% slow from holy freeze instead of 50% you go ahead and use no cnbf. Chilled also last longer than aura effect... so will be longer before u engage again

quit tagging me in this old thread lol

playing no phoenix tournament right now ill post the build later

Pure smite vs smite, no charge v/t chipping your health with foh, aura flashing or any other nonsense. Like zeal v zeal walk click on go and close your eyes.
Also the set up will be slightly different if lifetap or cold is allowed.

Yes, as for a no phoenix build this is good if u cham ur shako.

I would do coa chamBer, same st with 1 ber and 3 * ed/str/fhr/lr, waterwalks
