This guide is for the ones, who don't want to spend a lot of fg/runes on their Uber smite or just started playing.
Word explanations:cb=crushing blow :___100%_____________
2*(SAmount of players+1) = life drain in percent of CB
But eeh, wait what does this mean?
if a monster would have 0% phys resistance and 10k life in a solo player game you would drain 2,5k life of the monster.
In a 3player game the monster would have 20k life, but the math says us yep u drain 12,5% ---->2,5k life.
So the math is just saying the less people in there the more effective cb is for you.
ow=open woundsDamage per second is given by the following:
Character Level 1-15: 25 * (9 * Character Level + 31) / 256
Character Level 16-30: 25 * (18 * Character Level - 104) / 256
Character Level 31-45: 25 * (27 * Character Level - 374) / 256
Character Level 46-60: 25 * (36 * Character Level - 779) / 256
Character Level 61-99: 25 * (45 * Character Level - 1319) / 256
ias=increased attack speedcalculator: titanseal attack speed calculator (google it)
with black (15ias) in flail + fana , we need on the rest eq an ias of 20%
Skills:20 smite
20 holy shield
20 fana
20 resist lightning (this is maxing your resistance so you can reach resistance over 75)
1salvation
rest is as you wish ( I put them +1defiance ,rest resist fire)
Stats:Str enough for you equipment
Dex enough for max block -> 75% (you can see it by holding your mouse over def, with holy shield it will be higher! so only go look for max block when holy shield is activated!)
Vita rest
Ene nothing
Gear:Weapon: Black in a flail (ias+cb = gg for this price)
Shield: upped Herold of Zakarum/Griswolds shield (this is expensive i know but the shield is a must)
Helmet: Guillaumes (one and only here, 35cb,fhr,str are just godly)
Armor: Lion heart or treachery (I personally prefer to cast fade with treachery and switch then to lion heart)
Rings: raven frost + stat ring (I use dwarf works perfect, for diablo)
Amulet: Highlords wrath (+1sk/lightr/20ias make this amu a very good choice and its cheap as well)
Belt: Credendum or thunder gods (I prefer Credendum cause its cheaper and also you need less str + the fist of heaven on thunder gods is kinda wrack)
Gloves: Draculs or stat gloves (if using stat gloves you will need a life tap wand in secondary slot, these wands are shopable at akara)
Boots: goblin toe (25% cb, unbeaten in price)
With this setup we reach (if use treachery to buff fade+draculs) 75@ or higher resistance ( mine are 79 76 85 75 ) and 100%cb +25%ow + max ias + max block
Ias:Charms:As we want a cheap uber smite no torch/anni
we can use all the charms we found at leveling ofc, good are life,resistance,...
Strategy:1. Buff fade with treachery if have ( go any act or just stand some where in the fire)
2. cast holy shield ----> go tristram take salvation for mephisto and fana for baal+dia (If using lt want cast it on each boss, dont forget to kill mephistos minions after hes dead!)
I go like this:
Showcase:Im wearing just eq no charms at the moment.
