Conviction smiter?

[skora]

I'm attempting to expand my Riftadin to a uber killer also. Looking for some advise on which route to go:

1. Use a High CB weapon (Death?) on switch for bosses? Would need suggestions on the switch shield too.

or

2. Switch out my dream helm for a Guilaumes and Gores for CB, maybe dracs also and still use the Rift. IAS seems to be a problem, so I've also considered downgrading to a Voice of Reason Pb.

Current setup is:

Dual Dreams
Rift
RA ammy
Treachery (I want to switch this for CoH, fade doesn't fire often enough with max block so my RA is rarely maxed)
Rraven frost
Nats peace
Dracs
String of Ears
Aldurs boots

Demon Limb on switch for enchant and huge AR bonus.

And should I go Metalgrid or Mara's? Skills are needed, but the huge AR bonus with enchant and def with HS is hard to pass up.

Thanks for your 2 cents.

Smite is autohit, so AR is 100% unnecessary. I'd suggest something similar to what I did to my Hammerdin to make him Uber-viable quickly. He didn't have the dex for a PB and I didn't want to repair a Grief Zerker so I had to improvise.

Swap in "Beast" runeword in a Caduceus for the CB and Fanaticism. Gores will round out your CB and add OW. Trust me when I say you need no more CB than this. Sanctuary in an elite Paly shield(I like Zakarum or Vortex) should round out your resists and won't force you to ditch Treachery. If resists are still a problem, consider a Kira's.

Your only needs are resist stack, minimal CB, and Lifetap.
