View Full Version : Pure PVP Smiter ?
okay , so i became richier so i can afford myself something like anni+T , HoZ , eni , forti etc.
now i want to made myself a smiter paladin to almost never loose in 1v1 ( almost never i mean if i rly suck hard at pvp then i lose , but if im rly skilled i should not ).
so the question is.
STATS? ( i think of using archon plate for forti and i think il hit MAX 103 str , but not more than 103 , thats with anni + T ).
GEAR ? ( Grief PB , Forti , draculs , gores , HoZ , Maras amu , bul-khatos and raven ).
so im not sure about the helm and belt ...
helm - corona , shako , gaze ( for DR ) or andy ? gaze still is kinda not enough i mean i better get corona with 2 bers but im not sure at all , help me out here.
belt - Nosferatu or Arach ?
SKILL BUILD ?
remember that this pala i wanna make is not for UT or PVE.
well i guess thats it :)
please suggest me something , thx :P
Stats:
As low str as possible, might have to add around 20 to wear hoz, but not more than that.
Enough dex for max blocks.
Vita everything else goes here
Energy, nothing.
Gear:
Helm: Shako or coa, your call. I'm using ber & -15/15@ jeweled coa at the moment myself.
Amu: Mara's or some sweet rare if you manage to find one.
Weapon: Grief pb or ba, I got both on my smiter, switching them depending of who i duel.
Shield: Hoz or spirit, I'm a big fan of spirit and tele smiting.
Armor: Enigma, nothing else goes.
Gloves: Bloodfists, trang gloves if you wanna hit 75 fcr.
Rings: raven / bk or rare.
Belt: Arach in 75 fcr setup, verdungo when you need the dr. Tg in stash.
Boots: Waterwalks, tri ress rares, eth treks if you wanna go as high def as possible. I use waterwalks and tri ress rares.
Invi: Anni, torch, 37x 20 life scs with 2nd mods if possible.
The core build is:
20 smite
20 hs
20 fana
1 pt vigor
1 pt holyfreeze
1 pt salva
After that you can customize it freely, If you want more def, put rest points in defiance, if you feel like your comfortable with your def put the points in resists auras for the passive bonus.
what items from that list gives STR bonus , so i could calculate everything.
first time pvp smiter , never had even half of those items on my ut smiter lol.
u mean 60 str is like enough ?
wont there be any STR bug then ?
anni = 10-20
torch = 10-20
Mara's = 5
Enigma = 0.75 x char level, 67 at level 90.
Example:
Assuming you got mid torch and anni, you will get around 110 str from your items. Upped hoz requires 142. 142 - 110 = 32, you start with 25, so you need to put 7 points in str.

you mean the opposite right?

I'd like to see you wearing bered coa with 0 str.
- No defiance build with 0 dex, will get trashed hard by any half decent baba.
- Hdins and baba's are the opponents you definedly don't wanna use pb againts.
- Why even bother spirit build if you ain't gonna get 75 fcr option. (or even the 48% fcr)
- 1 pt charge is all you need to kill the chars your gonna use charge againts, 20 pts there is waste.
- Assuming perf charms, you lose around 300 hp and 135 all ress if you go the pcombats route, i'd take the all ress over the little damage add anyday.
- With your build, the only resists you get is from shield, Possible boots and charms. 40 anni + torch, 50 hoz, 50 charms, 40 to fire, cold, lightning from boots = 140 psn, 180 fire, cold, lightning resists. That is barely stacked resists in hell, you will get 1 shotted by foh palas.
I feel alot more comfortable with deeply stacked resistances in all around dueling, svs is different thing.
There is no one best build, different build works different again different opponents.

Grief PB for barbs and hdins because hdins have slow and that 10% will screw you over and for barbs too because you achieve max block if you are using full vitality build. Also you have salvation and max charge. Fohers cant touch you if you put on salvation and you can just charge kill them. With Grief PB you achieve max block and you dont really need defiance as much if you walk smite OR stand and smite.

Hdins doesn't have slow, if they don't actually melee hit you. If you got 40 ias grief ba and 20 ias gloves, you got enough ias to counter the 10% slow from arach, so i don't see it as a problem.
I don't see you getting max blocks while using spirit, with hoz it might be possible. Salvation gives ~105 ress, while fohers got around -175 resists, you will still be far from max resistances.
I don't quite see how grief pb helps you with achieving max blocks. Stand smite is one of the worst tactics vs. ww babas, especially if your using pb grief. I don't get you logic how walking or standing helps your lacking defense.

Grief PB forces you to get 136 dex which is max block.
105 res + res from other gear should give you max res in hell. Shift smite is wat i did with my old pb smiter. Considering this is a pub build most pub barbs are stupid and try to WW right next to you(in your range).
EDIT: 40 + 20 = 60
55 ias smite bp. No matter wat u will be slowed down to the lower BP.

105 res + res from other items gives you max resists in hell, but not max resists in hell after you lose -175 resist from convi and foh scepter.
I don't know what baba's you have dueled, but most of the babas i duel, know how to clip ww from the sides of you.
With 31 level fanaticism, you need 50 ias for 6 frame smite, 40 ias grief, 20 ias gloves is 60 ias, you can afford to lose 10 ias and remain the 6 frame smite. So, no you won't be slowed down.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm well i only duel in pubs and as i said pub barbs are dumb. And i need to look into that slow down stuffs.
O well imo he should make a T/V. Much better char :)

Got to agree on that, v/t is more versatile character. But he stated he pure smiter in the tittle so i go with that. :tongue:

assuming your opponents will be stupid is not a recipe for successful PvP adventures.
any decent barb will ez any smiter who isn't proficient in Tele-Smite.

from my realm i can tell u both those wont work stand smite or shift+ smite as known = auto fail vs a barb with one brain cell due to clipping however ba the problems with ba is barbs slap on slow i.e clegs + bb on our realm which is 35% slow + hf from doom means = range does nothing cuz the smite is slowed down to crap..
the only way to effectively beat a barb is using tele smite adding hf to slow the barb as well if needed..
That's true, but that much slow is bm imo. Ofcourse you can keep bm gear in stash too. Exile + grief pb + tele smiting + hf flashing > 95% of baba's you will ever face.
are we talking about smite vs baba tactics ? dont think so :)
please dont offtop , u can suggest build stats and skills though :D

this is a true statement but alot of barbs on my realm and most on our realm slow is not too bm unless vs zon
btw will people duel me if ill use holy freeze ? i saw hf smiters been flamed a lot and nobody wanned to duel them ...

If its a pub game then yeah ignore em it can be frowned on upon by alot of ppl but vs barbs i dont see issues using it..
maybe i should not lvl it up anyway ? :D
well if it IS a pub game , whats the point then , i just wanna pwn some random guys all the time :D

Holy freeze is very bm. You may "pwn" random people but when you get killed, you will get nked.
Holy freeze isn't bm, it's a common skill that smiters shouldn't really be without, especially if your smiter is non-exile and non-defiance (like many are). Some people cry that it's unfair, but more than likely they're the same type of person that whines when a druid recasts or when a hammerdin desynchs.
And if you get nked for it in a pub, so what. You get the satisfaction of knowing you dominated and raged some pimply nerd so badly he's gnashing his teeth and tearing his hair out while targeting you alone in a ridiculous effort to salvage crushed pride.
agreed with Camden as well the only way i can see it being too over the top is vs bowas and javas and even then on my bvc switch i still use 2x doom and i could not care less either...
so should i get HF ?
like if someone will ask me 1v1 in a password protected game , i wont use it , but on pubs , who cares :D
wont i loose much points of getting HF ?
i mean wtf , ive seen a lot HF palas , everybody whines but they dont care actually :)
i just wanna have fun pwning nerds.
umm sorry what is vigor actually for ???
Running faster through town? I find it quite worth the point and the prereqs, especially if you are racing towards a corpse. :grin:

That and even more important thing, desynch charging. Vigor increases your charge speed and makes you desynch more while charging, it's really handy and you can many times catch your opponent totally off guard.
okay thanks :P
and btw i find 20 charge kind of useless , dont u think ?
as said before by some kid that told me to max charge lol.
1pt is enough IMO.
