Ok your typing is worse than mine..this is an accomplishment. Best thing is to PM Frater (a Supermod) He is in charge of these type things,but his computer is down for probably 3 weeks,and he will make random intermitent appearances.
I pray for his soon return as I know ABSOLUTELY jack squat about D2.
Other than that PM another Mod or Admin..please for the love of GOD..do not PM me>.<
Only posting to let you know your request was read and redirecting you to a more knowledgable individual.
(Yes the irony of Supermoderating a D2 site does not allude me....)

[nlm908]

ok thanks ya frater has helped me out a lot in the past lol

[Haro257]

what realm? if you would like i could help you out it is sometimes easier to be in a game together than on here lol

[Mr Mellow]

Sheild
Use Exile, you get an awsome aura you can get an ez 30k+ def and you get max block pretty fast. Skill +'s don't really matter on smiters.

Rings
You have to change your rings constantly...
Be sure to have these....
2x Bk
2x rFrost
2x Wisp
2x dStar

Wepon
Go with the Phase Blade

Helm
Get a CoA(ber/ber)

Not to sure about your skills though..
I would look more into that.
Your gear looks ok, other then what I said up there..
Hope I helped.

1. uhhh exile hell no stick to eth upped hoz
2. your skill allocation is correct
3. yes you should change to goreriders
4. change your ammy to maras
5. dont change to phase blade zerk is good
6. change your glove to +20ias +str/dex glove
7. its vigor XD

[nlm908]

kk ty guys 4 the help.. and i paly in uswest ladder haro257... where do u paly at?

[Mr Mellow]

Us west/Non ladder
I missed gloves...
Use the 20ias gloves.

i perfer PB, but it really doesn't matter.
Only use maras ammy if you don't have good resist.
Use the exile 100% you will be noob if you don't
All smiters use exile. Just make sure its vortex..

[afro_box]

If i were you i would get 1 raven and one dwarf for scorcs and an eth exile vortex (i know that's expensive, but judging by your gear you have stuff to trade) (and a vortex because it has the hitghest smite damage) Instead of nigma i would use CoH on smiters and other melee char's because leach, %ED, damage reduce, replenish life, + to res, etc. you catch my drift. And you really need gores. the PB you got also.

[Speedyw00t]

Not a bad build, but i must say for some reason bugged tals are a must for smiters, i have them and with a 396/38 grief i have only meet a few out of many smiters that top me.

YES do go with an eth vortex exile.

My smiter does (according to my "c" button) 3.6k smite dmg, thats with pvp eq. pvm (uber trist) eq he does around 3.1k dmg with bo. I would advise you to use botd pb for ubers for obvious reason... 60% ias. With my uber eq i pwn ubers in less that 1 and a half mins. As long as you have good items with life tap, and critical hits stuff like that you will fly through ubers.

[Espada]

first of all botd is garbage why would you use that if you have a grief pb second i only use zerk cause i reached bp third coh is not for pvp but for ubering lastly i use eth upped hoz for gm duels and you should be able to clear games with a eth upped hoz so exile isnt needed cause eth upped hoz deals more dmg then exile

[Speedyw00t]

First off you DIDNT read my whole post as i was describing uber eq not really pvp!

We (A friend and I have tested this) Botd is better for uber tristram than grief! As griefs enhanced damage does not really apply to ubers hardly any dmg difference!

His smiter owns me nearly everytime in pvp but in ubers he takes over 3mins. i do it in half the time.

[Pamela]

Have questions been answered? I am lost and can not tell.I suggest however you listen to people that play D2.Also do not bicker just respond with useful information please.I thank you in advance.

[Espada]

im sorry but botd is outdated try using a last wish pb
dmg/prevent monster heal/life tap/might
last wish pb>botd pb anyday ubering

[BoomScriddle]

are you supposed to use a eth uped hoz for smiters?

[Mr Mellow]

No.... you use the Eth Vortex EXILE
Every GFG Smiter uses the build i posted up there. "MAY BE LITTLE DIFF"
But every GFG uses the EXILE..... Every smart smiter knows that....
Stay away from that Hoz.... Use that on a Hammerdin... lol

[FraterPerdurabo]

Most of you guys in this thread, please stick to posting about stuff that you know about. Smiters isn't one of them.

@nlm908:
Bump this thread and I'll write you a PvP Smiter guide tomorrow, once I get my new PC.
