Smither question

[Thebobs]

20 smither and 20 holy sheild right.

MY question is what skills/auras paladins that adds damage to smith.

[PlayWithHonor]

Fanatacism is what you'll want me thinks.

[zallus]

the normal is

max defiance
max holy shield
max smite
max fantacism
1 pt redemption
1 pt cleansing
1 pt salvation
Or at least thats how i build it

[Thebobs]

K, thanks whats the damage of u smither zallus? (not including gear)

[PlayWithHonor]

That's a solid build zallus presented.

@Thebobs: to be clear given that your question was concerning what increased Smite damage specifically, only the following affect Smite's damage:

Smite
Holy Shield
Fanatacism
Level of strength (1% per level)
Shield Smite damage mod
Specific damage mods like the +damage from Grief


Defiance does not increase Smite damage.

[Thebobs]

oooooooooo! Yeah, playwithhonor that is EXACTLY what i meant, thanks!

[zallus]

but his gear is what gives him his dam....so without gear his damage prolly looks pitiful and you cant even smite without a shield on.

But my screen reads like 2500 but i dont use fort so it could be higher.

And by using grief ur damage screen will never read correctly their was a thread posted and if i can find it ill link you to it but as i seem to remember i am actually doing 7k+ damage.

Edit: ok i think i found what i am looking for

This is the calculation for figuring out actually damage.

I know there is a better one somewhere but i cant seem to find it

Edit2: ok i finally found it, it gives exact calculations

But i would give a look at both for an idea of how to calculate
