Hi,

I love the power of smite and CB, but to kill mob of monster hammerdin rule, so I thought can I build a hybrid?

With the runeword Pride merc weapon for concentration aura, I think I can.

So the skills distrubition, by level 85:
Max bless hammer
Max smite
Max holyShield
Max fanaticism
10 into bless aim (hammer synergy)

Variation includes: max blessaim and 10 in holy shield.

He would use grief/exile or hoz for smite and switch to hoto or wizspike / spirit for hammer. Together with merc concentration aura, hammer damage should be reasonable to mf, and you would still have your max smite damage for ubers.

What do you guy think?

1 smite is enough. You can smite uber to death with 1 smite point. Your Grief will help kill ubers in less than 30 seconds or so. The rest of the skill point can go on hammer synergies. Just make sure you have enough CB (30+) and use drak (life tap) when you are near ubers, they are magic immune so you cant use your hammer.

I agree with papyrus. 1pt smite is enough for ubers. Unfortunately many haven't realised that and the damage is already done,just take a look at all those zmiters or smealots around (maxed zeal and maxed smite).

A pure hammerdin (in terms of skill distribution) can solo the ubers by just switching to different gear. Use your 1pt smite(holy shield prereq) as your main attack and concentration as your aura.A 6xshael crystal sword for your weapon (you reach 7fpa smite with it) and dracul's gloves,gore rider boots and guil face for life tap and 50% crushing blow. Blessed hammer will take care of minions and smite the bosses.
